I’m a wine drinker, and I love a few glasses over meals with friends. That said, I hate hangovers. For the last few months, all of the wine in my house has been from Dry Farm Wines. Why?

[07:16]Find yourself waking up for a few hours in the middle of the night? It’s perfectly natural. Here’s how to deal with it. [11:13]From a research standpoint, why is Tetris uniquely effective at treating PTSD? [13:34]McGonigal to McNostradamus: what spooky thing happened when, in 2010, Jane led 20,000 gamers in a social simulation trying to imagine the world of 2020? 10 years later, what does Jane consider to be the most important outcome of this exercise? [15:31]Further predictions from this 2010 simulation and another one that ran simultaneously — including a tick-borne pandemic that could make people allergic to meat (and how the world might adjust to such a scenario). [22:25]What predicted threat does Jane see as having a silver lining, and what economic concepts and policies have recently “radicalized” her? [40:59]Predictions for the future of cryptocurrency as politics get involved, and how current play-to-earn gaming platforms may have to adapt. [50:25]Cult recruitment and podcasting in the age of trust warfare. [54:21]Pornography always finds a way. [1:00:11]What is urgent optimism? [1:10:38]Future Fridays and habits to cultivate for feeling good when contemplating an uncertain future. [1:13:58]Future power examples: small preparations Jane has found helpful toward easing her more comfortably into what tomorrow has in store for us. [1:18:54]Do you have an action plan for total electrical blackout or climate migration? Here are some preventative and reactive steps Jane’s been thinking about, and how I address such problems to people who may be politically disinclined to consider them at all. [1:24:44]Three questions you can ask to measure your urgent optimism and give you a sense of which of those three habits or skills you might want to practice more, and an example of how Jane’s recently applied these questions. [1:31:46]Jane details an Urgent Optimist group activity you can join to better spot the future’s hopeful signals — especially if you’re hardwired to only see what’s in a shadow of perpetual pessimism. [1:39:41]Journaling from the future as a form of specificity training. [1:43:14]Who Alvin Toffler was, and how Jane feels about his maxim that “it’s more important to be imaginative and insightful than to be 100 percent right” about the future. [1:47:29]Why Jane thinks the technological solutions to climate change will rely more on socio optimism than techno-optimism, and what these solutions may look like. [1:52:05]Jane’s recommendations for people who would like to study incentives and how they might be applied to solving the world’s biggest problems. [1:57:10]Further resources, audience asks, and final thoughts.

[06:12]How we’re dealing with perpetual daylight and zero access to the internet. [08:26]For anyone who hasn’t caught his past appearances and mentions on this show, who is Matt Mullenweg, and what keeps him busy when he’s not camping on Antarctican sea ice? [11:12]What our morning immersed in the “patient” landscape of Antarctica has been like so far. [13:56]Why a total solar eclipse needs to be experienced firsthand to understand why it’s such a big deal. [17:15]Antarctican skin care and rollicking penguin imitations. [20:52]What’s happened in Matt’s world since the last time we talked on this podcast? How does he keep each day interesting?

[32:25]Podcast tech spec updates since our last conversation that make recording possible at any temperature on Earth. [34:39]As Matt says, “You can’t spell ‘Tim’ without ‘TMI.’” That’s why I’m going to talk about the time I sampled my own urine. [40:04]We each answer the question posed by a card from the Holstee Reflection Deck: “What is one fear you would like to conquer?” [42:13]Strange comfort I derived from a recent existential revelation, and where I found it. [50:48]Next card: “If a crystal ball could tell you the truth about your life, the world, or anything else, what would you want to know?” [1:00:29]Another card: “If you knew that in one year you would die suddenly, what would you change about the way you’re living now? Why?” [1:08:35]At the time of this conversation, what would I put on my billboard? [1:19:20]New card: “What are two things still on your bucket list?” [1:19:38]We need more billionaires exploring the oceans and the non-Western worlds of ritual and myth with the same exuberance as the ones currently exploring space. [1:26:39]Would I clone my dog Molly? Matt shares his own experience with getting to know a cloned animal after its genetically identical predecessor passed away. [1:38:49]More bucket list items. [1:43:12]Why Matt doesn’t curse, and what he does when he gets really angry. [1:43:42]The next card: “Do intentions matter more or less than actions?” [1:47:29]The last card: “What are you grateful for right now?” [1:52:07]Parting thoughts.

I recommended it in The 4-Hour Body in 2010 and did not get paid to do so.

From whom did this idea originate? [07:25]What books has Hugh gifted most? [11:44]What does Hugh’s regular meditation practice look like, and what benefits does he enjoy from it? [15:22]How does Hugh summon and maintain the emotional and physical energy necessary for performing — particularly when he has to give his all multiple times per week on stage in front of a live audience? [19:42]As someone who’s performed across countless stage and screen productions, why was Hugh nervous about coming on this podcast? [27:34]What lessons did Hugh’s father teach him about being an example to others by way of action, making decisions, and always keeping his word? [29:41]To what does Hugh owe his eloquent (or, as his wife might say, “too verbose”) communication skills? [39:16]Hugh’s relationship with journalism, journalists, and a newfound love for the work of Ken Burns. [44:13]Hugh talks about the contract he made with himself at the end of drama school about pursuing acting — and being wary of the word “career” in relation to that pursuit. [46:28]Some of the best decisions Hugh made in the first years of being an aspiring/working actor. [51:26]Why does Hugh think he was extended the kindness of auditioning for Sir Trevor Nunn — one of his idols — even though he had no intention of accepting a part in the musical he was directing? [57:02]How has Hugh learned to trust his intuition — even when it leads him in unexpected directions? [58:52]Can Hugh recall any times when the purpose of a nudge from intuition wasn’t easily fathomed — when the dots didn’t connect in an obvious way, but paid off in a big way when it was heeded? [1:06:29]Am I talking to Hugh Jackman, or Perfect Tommy? [1:10:57]Hugh elaborates on one of his daily morning practices — the design of the day — pondering the efficacy of manifestation and how it played into a major career decision. [1:12:16]Hugh puts discipline in perspective, talks about the importance of incorporating relaxation into physical activity (or possibly any activity) for best results, the types of exercises he’s found to be most effective, and a Viktor Frankl quotation that he finds especially inspiring. [1:18:33]Hugh is a connoisseur of puzzles and games. So what does he recommend for someone who needs to unwind from taking themselves and their work too seriously? Furthermore, what is it about puzzles that keeps him occupied all night if he doesn’t remember to set an alarm for himself? [1:27:46]Parting thoughts.

[06:43]What do people get wrong about the partnership between Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger? [13:45]The size is the strategy. [16:59]Six years after writing his “Financial Advice for My New Son” article for The Motley Fool, are there any points Morgan would add or amend? [20:27]While there’s no way of knowing what kind of adults our kids will grow up to be, how might we instill in them the value of money and the ability to control how it affects their lives? [23:43]What unorthodox career decision did Morgan’s father make in his 30s, and how did the family’s life change as a result? How did earlier lessons of frugality give Morgan’s parents more options later on than their more steadily affluent peers? [28:28]How Morgan’s career path meandered from Denny’s greeter to investment banker to reluctant writer. [34:18]After finally hitting his stride as a writer at The Motley Fool, what compelled Morgan to join the Collaborative Fund team? [42:15]What’s a Markel and how did Morgan get involved with it? What was it hoped he could bring to the table there? [49:07]How does Morgan approach risk? [56:32]What “fin tweet” game is Morgan playing, and what are the rules? Who are the top players in this space, and what makes them worth your attention no matter the medium? [58:59]Investors Morgan respects — even if he wouldn’t try to emulate them. [1:03:33]Don’t beat yourself up too badly if you’ve ever been gamed by the market. Even Warren Buffett still makes mistakes. But would his younger version have made the same decisions he makes today? What made the early days of the pandemic such an uncertain time for even the most seasoned investors — Buffett and Housel alike? [1:09:37]Sometimes it’s the counterintuitive bets that elevate an investor into deity or demigodhood in the pantheon of the money-minded — whether it’s Benjamin Graham, Walt Disney, or Michael Moritz. [1:19:11]Notes on leverage and the “buy, borrow, die” approach to investing, and making sense of conflicting, diametrically opposed advice from seemingly intelligent, rational parties with differing opinions. [1:28:37]Sometimes peace of mind matters more than profit. [1:33:44]Is it better to be an antediluvian penny pincher who dies rich, or a high-roller who casts fistfuls of dollars into the sea only to pass away penniless? Maybe the middle ground is healthier than either extreme. [1:36:01]How does Morgan recommend someone of means ensure their children don’t grow up to be horrible, entitled, and generally useless to society? [1:40:13]Biographies and memoirs Morgan recommends (and what they can teach us about current events). [1:48:19]How can you increase the likelihood that you will not respond in moments of panic by doing what cripples you financially? Morgan weighs in. [1:52:26]In Morgan’s experience, how does someone who comes into money effectively allow themselves to enjoy it without succumbing to the all-too-common temptation to sink it all under a mountan of status symbols nobody really cares about? For his own part, what does his financial comfort allow him to enjoy, and how does he scratch the itch when he’s pestered by such temptations? [1:57:27]Preparing for financially bumpy long hauls, and “understanding the difference between a fee and a fine.” [2:07:15]A handful of journalists and writers Morgan would choose as trusted informants in a world without Twitter or in-depth news sources. [2:10:37]Morgan’s hall of fame for books about investing and finance, and how Dan Gardner’s book The Science of Fear has made him think about fear. [2:17:02]Morgan’s advice for helping someone (like me) regain a regular cadence of writing if COVID or other life interruptions have derailed such efforts, and a glimpse into what his own writing process looks like. [2:19:18]Tolerance for petty annoyance as a valuable life skill. [2:25:48]How did training as a competitive ski racer prepare Morgan for USC and, eventually, a world-class writer for The Motley Fool? [2:30:53]What does Morgan think is true, but is actually just good marketing? [2:39:17]What looks unsustainable, but is actually a new trend we haven’t accepted yet? [2:40:57]What has been true for decades that will stop working, but will drag along stubborn adherence because it has such a long track record of success? [2:43:50]Which of our current views would change if our incentives were different? [2:45:46]What are we ignoring today that will seem shockingly obvious in a year? [2:48:11]Money is not spreadsheets.

[09:37]An early interview failure that Neil resolved to never repeat. [10:47]On separating home life from work life and the writing habits of Maya Angelou and Ian Fleming. [15:55]Neil’s biggest rule for writing. [20:16]Neil’s process for writing first drafts. [23:35]What Neil aims to accomplish with his second drafts. [25:49]Something Neil noticed when he first started writing and editing with the use of computers. [26:28]What notebooks does Neil prefer for writing first drafts? [29:13]Fountain pens Neil has known and loved. [35:21]How many book signings does it take to get to the bottom of a Pilot 823’s structural capacity? How about Neil’s signing hand? How many such pens given in sacrifice by Neil’s three-year-old will appease his house gods? [39:39]Neil’s journey from manual typewriter to electric typewriter to computer to notebook, and the power of trivializing weighty endeavors — whether they’re writing novels or going for gold medals. [41:49]How Coraline went from being an unpublishable labor of love for Neil’s children to an award-winning novella. [47:48]Does Neil tend to work on multiple projects at once? [53:22]Why does Neil take particular delight in writing introductions to other people’s work? [55:24]At what time of day does Neil prefer to work, and has this changed over the years? [56:50]Advice to aspiring novelists about finding a routine: The more you can be like Phil Connors in Groundhog Day, the better. [59:35]The importance of understanding that just because we do something one way today doesn’t mean we’ll be doing it that way tomorrow. [1:01:28]How a touching post on Neil’s blog (which I recommend everyone read) inspired me to adopt my own dog, Molly. [1:03:16]What’s the genesis story of The Graveyard Book? [1:04:10]Neil makes the case for giving the ensemble version of The Graveyard Book a listen. [1:15:29]Who was Terry Pratchett, and how did he and Neil strike up a friendship? [1:16:24]On working with Douglas Adams and the germ of the idea that became Neil and Terry’s collaboration, Good Omens. [1:20:12]Neil shares his preposterous writing schedule from simultaneously working on Good Omens, Sandman, and The Books of Magic — something only someone very insane (or very young) could possibly handle. [1:23:08]Why, after so many misfires trying to get Good Omens on the screen, we’ll finally see an uncompromising television adaptation soon. [1:24:30]Where to find out more about Good Omens — the book and the series. [1:30:58]What does Neil feel he learned most from his “apprenticeship” with Terry? [1:32:40]How did Terry approach his own mortality when he learned he had Alzheimer’s disease? [1:34:45]Before he passed away, Terry opened up a controversial dialogue around the right to die for people with terminal diseases like Alzheimer’s. What is Neil’s view? [1:38:14]What would Terry think of the Good Omens series and its related fanfare? How might things have gone differently if he’d been directly involved in production? [1:39:50]Time flies when you’re interviewing Neil Gaiman. (For the record, I hope to fly again sooner than later.) [1:45:09]Parting thoughts.
