#80: Shane Parrish - Mastering The Best Of What Other People Have Already Figured Out
Shane is the host of the Knowledge Project podcast which is my go-to listen, for a slight tangent - I think Shane is one of the best interviewers around and someone I’ve been learning from myself. Shane has interviewed the likes of Jim Collins, Esther Perel, Daniel Kahneman and some mutual guests like Robert Greene and Annie Duke for the show.
The knowledge Project is just one of the notches under Shane’s hugely impressive umberella. Shane is also the founder of Farnam Street, an online learning community that Shane founded whilst working for a leading intelligence agency in Canada that can be found at fs.blog. Farnam Street is dedicated to mastering the best of what other people have already figured out, that now gets over 1 million page views per month.
Shane is an absolute learning machine, so much so that I’ve made it one of my life goals to go and see this guys bookshelf with my own eyes, and to emphasise this point, Shane told me that in 2013 he read 153 books in one year. I view Shane as a North star when it comes to Education, and speaking to Shane has made me want to improve even more.
When Shane isn’t interviewing leading scholars and notable people, you may find him managing Syrus Partners which is an investment company operating out of North America.
Farnam Street also released a book called The Great Mental Models which covers general thinking concepts. Shane & I discuss Volume 1 in today’s episode which is all around general thinking concepts. Now why is this important? As the saying goes, to the man with a hammer - everything looks like a nail. Having a clear and concise understanding of these mental models will greatly improve your decision making. And considering your life is the conclusion of the vast amounts of decisions we make everyday, becoming a better decision maker will ultimately make for a much better life.

Today on the show, we are joined by Nick Santonastasso is a medical miracle. Nick is one of four people alive with the rare genetic condition, Hanhart Syndrome.
Nick is an entrepreneur, inspirational keynote speaker who has opened shows at Tony Robbins events, an author of the hit book ‘victim to victor’, is an internationally known bodybuilder and fitness model, has released his own song – Nick has accomplished all of this before 25, despite the fact that he’s missing both his legs and one arm since birth.
Nick’s truly one of, perhaps if not the most inspirational person. And the fact this guy was even a varsity junior wrestler, and finished higher in his bodybuilding show than other abled body competitors is testament to the champion mindset that Nick has, which is something that we discuss today.
In fact, Nick is such an inspiration that when Nick met Dwayne The Rock Johnson, The Rock asked Nick for a picture and later dedicated an instagram post to him.
This was a real pleasure to have this conversation with Nick, I hope you enjoy!

#76: David Meerman Scott - How To Build A Fanocracy & Turn Fans Into Customers
Today on the show, we are joined by marketing strategist, entrepreneur, advisor, Venture capitalist strategic partner and the best-selling author of 10 books that include the ‘new rules of marketing’ and his latest book which he co-authored with his daughter Reiko ‘Fanocracy’ turning fans into customers and customers into fans - David Meerman Scott.
David is the lead marketing speaker at the Tony Robbins business mastery events, has been hired to speak in more than 40 countries as well as offering strategies and tactics through his presentations to the worlds biggest companies Iike Google, Microsoft, PWC, the Ford Motor Company and Hewlett Packard.
As well as being one of the world’s leading business strategists, David worked as a male model in Japan, has attended 751 live music shows that he keeps track of with an excel spreadsheet, and is a raving fan of collecting artifacts from the Apollo lunar program.
This idea of creating fans is an idea in which we brought to the podcast in our episode with Kevin Kelly the CEO of wired. Kevin’s premise is that you can live a very comfortable life if you can make 1000 true fans. When Kevin wrote that essay it went viral, and is very much used as an entrepreneurial benchmark, we will link that article below if you haven’t checked it out.
https://kk.org/thetechnium/1000-true-fans/
We know that you guys loved that concept, so we reached out to David because he has done a deep dive into how to build raving fans for your organisation. In an age of business in which everything has become automised, when we’ve lost the art of human connection, creating true fans with your audience is the way out of the matrix.
Please enjoy this fantastic and in-depth conversation with the amazing David Meerman Scott.
