The James Altucher Show

Humble The Poet was a teacher. He didn't like it. And he felt it. He had a different art inside of him. Part of it was rap, part of it was poetry, part of it was philopshy. It took time, but now Humble The Poet is a full-time artist. In this podcast, you'll learn how he gave himself permission to step off of the approved life paths and create his own.   I write about all my podcasts!

Consider this the new year. I'm releasing 3 episodes back-to-back with the greatest advice from 30 guests.

Let them help you reinvent.  I do this every 100 episodes. 500 is big. And it's hard to choose the clips. Because there are so many great ones. But I want to give you a good mix.

Tim O'Brien is the bestselling author, "The Things They Carried." Tim wrote this book as a veteran of the Vietnam war. He was drafted. Like everyone else in their 20's at the time. "85, 90% of our casualties came from land mines," he said. "Not gunfire. Not the typical battle you'll see in movies. Landmines were the killing force." Every step he took was a mystery. People died all around him. ""I'll never know how close my foot was to a land mine," he said. Now he's 73. And has a new book. It's called "Dad's Maybe Book." His son came up with the title. But I look at this book as a sequel to "Thinks They Carried." Because both books include the idea of "maybe." "Will I live another day?" "every day has maybe," Tim said. "But that's true for everyone. We all write our maybe books. Maybe my dreams will come true. Maybe not. Maybe I'll change my dream, amend them or qualify them..." This episode is about learning to get comfortable with the maybe. Settling in. And seeing the story unfold.  I write about all my podcasts!

Mike Bullard dropped out of school to become a cop. He wanted to solve murders. But no one really gets murdered in Canada. So he quit. And became a stand-up comedian. Then a talk show host and radio host. He's since been named the greatest TV talk show host in Canadian history. I asked him about his decision to quit and turn toward a new (and harder) dream. Here's Mike Bullard on how he made it to the top.   I write about all my podcasts! Check out the full post and learn what I learned at jamesaltucher.com/podcast. Thanks so much for listening!

I want to know who's going to win the election. And how. What marketing tactics will they use? How will the persuade? Is negative advertising good? I called Phillip Stutts. And he came back on the podcast to tell me his predictions. He's gotten all sorts of political offices elected: presidents, senators, etc. But he's also worked for losing campaigns. And can speak to what DOESN'T win.    And I'm giving away my new book, "The Side Hustle Bible." It's a collection of 177 proven ways to make extra income.

Aaron Berg is a world record-breaking comedian. He just shattered a comedy record by doing 25 sets. At 25 different clubs. All in one night. He filmed it all. And made a new special called "25 Sets." Which you can get on Amazon. Or iTunes. In this episode, I ask Aaron why he got into comedy, but we also talk about angry people, this new heightened level of outrage, and how to alchemize it into laughs.   I write about all my podcasts!
