596 - What They're Not Telling You About the Protests with Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams

Eric Adams is the Brooklyn Borough President. He's also running for mayor. You probably remember the last time he came on. And talked about why he became a police officer... and how being physically beaten by the police inspired him to make change. Now, he's back on to explain the streams of the protests. Who's out there in peaceful protest? Who's disrupting it? Why are their professional anarchists robbing people of their chance to speak about injustice? And how do we move forward?

595 - How Less Government Leads to More Freedom with Vice President Elect Spike Cohen

Spike Cohen is the first anarchist AND the first millennial on the ticket for the upcoming 2020 election. He's the Vice President Elect for the libertarian party (the third largest political party in the U.S.). He has a lot of compelling arguments about the federal reserve, inflation, freedom, centralized government versus decentralized government, etc. And you might be wondering, 'Why does anyone run as a third party? What's the point?' I asked him this, too. But here's the real reason to listen to this episode: you get to challenge the conventional ideas of politics. I'd like to hear what you think.

Blake Mycoskie is the founder of TOMS shoes, known for its "buy a pair, give a pair" model. But when Blake started he knew nothing about shoes. Or building a company. "It was just a project," he said. And yet it became a massively successful and has donated tens of millions of shoes to people in need. I asked Blake how he got the courage to start a company he knew nothing about. I also asked him about the business model, selling the company and building his new company, MadeFor, which is new wellness company that helps you learn how to have agency over your own health. Here's a list of all the things we talk about: The origin story of TOMS, their business model and how they took off How to develop a company that gives back How to find a cause you want to help Blake's new company, MadeFor and how to have agency over your health (and what to focus on) Healthy habits you can develop NOW Hallucinogenics Blake's advice for building a business during and after the pandemic And if you go to getmadefor.com and type in MFJAMESALTUCHER then you get 20% off.

593 - How to Be MORE Informed Than The Average Person with Jack Perry

People say not reading the news = being "uninformed." I disagree. I read books (history books, biology books, evolutionary books, economics books, etc.). But now, we live in a new world. And yesterday's information can become outdated tomorrow. So that begs the question, how do you stay informed? I called up Jack Perry, CEO of Synback, which has its finger on the pulse of all media to learn WHERE real information will be sourced in the future. And how to stay in the know.

592 - How to Invent a New Industry in Uncertain Times with Matthew Berry, The First-Ever Fantasy Football Analyst

The world economy is full of uncertainties. People are furloughed. Or scared of being furloughed. Or fired. Or scared of losing their job. Security isn't real right now. So we need other plans. I called up Matthew Berry, the first-ever Fantasy Sports analyst. Matthew basically invented a new industry and career entirely back in 2005. I wanted to learn the step-by-step process of starting over in uncertain times. And how we can apply these lessons today. I don't know anything about sports (real or fake). But if you're a fan of Fantasy Football, then good news for you. You can watch Matthew Berry on "The Fantasy Show" on EPSN+. You can listen to him on the Fantasy Focus Football podcast and download the Fantasy Life app, which is 100% free and Matt says their alerts are the best in the business.

591 - How to Think Like a Rocket Scientist with Ozan Varol

Facts are only facts for a period of time. This is true in science, in history, in economics, everywhere. But sometimes we forget that information changes. We get stuck thinking it's stagnant. And then WE become stagnant. But if you can look at facts and information from an alternate perspective (through the lens of a rocket science), you'll know how to get unstuck, persuade better, deal with uncertainty, have creative breakthroughs and more. In this episode you'll learn how Einstein (and other geniuses) learned to think differently). And why this will help you deal with the current fluctuation of facts and information. Ozan Varol is a trained rocket scientist and the author of "Think Like a Rocket Scientist: Simple Strategies You Can Use to Make Giant Leaps in Work and Life." In this episode we talk about: How Einstein learned to think differently How to deal with unclear information and uncertain times Where scientific (and creative) breakthroughs come from (and strategies to have them more often yourself) How to embrace the unknown What makes an idea groundbreaking How to imagine beyond society's limits and create something new How to re-imagine the status quo I write about all my podcasts!
