Alex Mathers
I had a lovely chat with Alex Mathers on the podcast this week. We have a far-ranging conversation about allsorts of things from creating content, using Twitter and not losing your mind whilst doing these things. About Alex Alex Mathers is a writer, coach, and illustrator, currently based in:...

Luke Burgis - The cult of experts
My goal with this podcast is to try and find legitimately interesting people who can hold a conversation. Luke is one such human. After recently writing his excellent book, Wanting, we spend over an hour talking about nearly everything else other than the book. Especially my favourite topic: the...

Andrew Barry - Courses, learning and promoting
It was a pleasure to finally manage to sit down with Andrew and talk to him about courses, learning and how the hell you can actually promote this stuff without losing your mind. We also get into our evolving opinions of Twitter and promoting ourselves in general, how to do it whilst keeping…

Nick Winkelman - The mind and the body
After my first episode with Nick, I immediately wanted him back. This time we were to talk about more esoteric stuff (my words), stuff less related to performance. It was a pleasure having Nick on again, but we didn't get too deep into philosophy like I wanted to. That's for round 3. About Nick...

Benjamin George - The new work revolution
I've known and connected with Benjamin through Twitter over the last year, and he's an excellent and wide-ranging thinker. I've been wanting to get him on the podcast for a while but it's mainly my schedule that has made it take this long to get together... In this chat we talk about everything...

Colin Landforce - Selling yourself (and lots of weed)
Colin is fascinating to me, because he does something that in the UK I couldn't even imagine happening for a long time: he sells weed legally. And not only does he sell weed, he sells a LOT of weed. As CTO of Unrivaled Brands—a publicly traded cannabis brand—Colin continues to push into new and...

Emmy Sobieski - Staying curious
I think Emmy is my spirit animal. After spending a large portion of her life in investing, she casually spends the rest of her time either running ultramarathons, marathons, entering bodybuilding competitions, competing in Dressage and staying curious. This episode is a fascinating look at how…

Chris Williamson - What is enough?
What is there really to say about Chris Williamson?

We...

Alex Paval - Twitter, quitting a job and starting a company
I met Alex on Twitter when he was first starting out and immediately became curious about the mind maps he was sharing and his friendly attitude. We got along, and then a while ago I put a call out to invite people on my podcast on Twitter. He was one of the first to fill it out and now we're...
-
Nick Winkelman - High performance, communication and coaching
Nick Winkelman is my perfect kind of guest. Well-read, intelligent and knows things beyond his own realm of expertise—we had a lot of fun with this conversation.

-
Phil Hagspiel - Building a mind vault
Phil is a bonafide interesting person. His day job is in the startup world, but his evening pursuits are about self-mastery and philosophy. This was a truly fascinating conversation, and I've already booked him back on for a round two in (hopefully) August 2021. About Phil Phil is building Mind...
