Journalist Anand Giridharadas On The Lost Art Of Empathy, Compassion, & Understanding Each Other

calendar_today Oct 5, 2026 schedule 133:56

Anand Giridharadas is a New York Times bestselling author whose new book is Man in the Mirror. This conversation explores the death of Jordan Neely on a New York subway, the story at the center of the book. We discuss Anand's return from punditry to reporting, how power actually operates, what the Epstein emails reveal about elite relationships, the Aspen consensus, who gets to belong in America and the case for radical humanization. Along the way, I share how the program of recovery taught me to seek understanding and lead with curiosity. Anand's book is an act of service. I hope this conversation is, too. Enjoy!

Malcolm Gladwell is a journalist and bestselling author. Kenya Barris is a writer, producer, and the creator of Black-ish. Together they host the Audible Original podcast The Unusual Suspects.

These two are a treat together. Enjoy!

calendar_today Sep 17, 2026 schedule 111:39

William Goodge is a British ultra-endurance athlete who just FKT'd his Australia crossing. In October, he runs 50 marathons in 50 states in 24 days. We get into the logistics, the strange polarity of a life spent between five-star hotels and the side of a trail, and what it's like to be doubted in public.  Will is the most aura-farming, Goodge-coded ultra mog I could possibly imagine.

Life's A Fight. Don’t Let It Break You: Dolph Lundgren On Trauma, Stardom & Cancer

calendar_today Sep 14, 2026 schedule 118:37

Dolph Lundgren is an actor, martial artist, and chemical engineer, best known as Ivan Drago in Rocky IV. This conversation explores the distance between the man on the poster and the boy underneath: the violent childhood, the Fulbright he traded for Manhattan, the delirium of instant fame, the steroids and stunts that followed, a fatal prognosis reversed by a second opinion, and the mirror work that finally took. He offers a quiet rebuke to everything young men are currently being sold about strength. Dolph's still a warrior – but a peaceful warrior. Enjoy!

calendar_today Aug 24, 2026 schedule 82:35

Hellah Sidibe is a former professional soccer player, transcontinental runner, and now 3,349 consecutive days into a run streak.

Lee Sung Jin On Depression, The Beauty of Anger, & The Spirituality Of Netflix’s ‘Beef’

calendar_today Aug 17, 2026 schedule 110:58

Lee Sung Jin is the Emmy-winning writer, director, and showrunner of Beef, and is now co-writing Marvel's X-Men. We discuss his backstory, the Jungian shadow work underneath the show, the specificity with which he constructs these characters and the universality piece that comes out of it, the worst year of his life and the scene it produced, and the name he spent twenty-five years under. The overarching message is that change, evolution, growth are possible and always within our grasp. We just get in our own way. Lee is operating at an entirely different level. Enjoy!

The Most Decorated Winter Olympian Ever: Johannes Klæbo On Training, Mindset & Reinventing His Sport

calendar_today Aug 10, 2026 schedule 92:00

Johannes Klæbo is a Norwegian cross-country skier, an 11-time Olympic gold medalist, and the most decorated Winter Olympian in history. Johannes caught the world's attention with his signature sprinting on skis, sweeping his events and winning the most gold medals ever at a single Winter Olympics. But it wasn't always so; this conversation explores how he got from the middle of the pack at age 14 to the top of Olympic history. We get into Norway's philosophy of raising top athletes, the training mishap that turned into his uphill technique, his 32-hour training week, and his competitive spirit that never switches off. He also tells me the one thing he changed before the Olympics, and it has nothing to do with training. At only 29 Johannes is already one of the greatest Olympians of all time, and it was an honor to have this conversation with him. Enjoy.

calendar_today Aug 6, 2026 schedule 142:41

Zac Clark is the founder of Release Recovery and a tireless recovery advocate, as well as the winner of The Bachelorette. He totally embodies the principles of recovery and what it means to give back to this community that has saved so many. This conversation gets into the reality of addiction and why, for Zac, recovery is less about willpower than community. We cover: willingness, emotional sobriety, how families get pulled under, the stranger who saved his life, and what running gives him.

Stoic Lessons From The Odyssey w/ Ryan Holiday

calendar_today Aug 3, 2026 schedule 82:43

Ryan Holiday is a bestselling author and a leading voice in modern Stoicism. This conversation explores Christopher Nolan's interpretation of Homer's Odyssey and the moral truths the poem was built to transmit. We discuss why interpretation is the assignment, the hubris Nolan left out, unreliable narrators, the sirens as confirmation bias, perseverance versus persistence, and many other topics. Odysseus, it turns out, is working the twelve steps. Ryan is a great mind. And the movie is a masterpiece. Enjoy!
