[Bonus] - Ryan Deiss: How to Believe in Your Idea Enough to Take the First Step (and Other Business Advice)

[Bonus] - Ryan Deiss: How to Believe in Your Idea Enough to Take the First Step (and Other Business Advice)

I remember sitting at my cubicle job looking at people wondering, "Why? Why are you here? Why are you doing this?" I asked a friend once, "Don't you think this job is meaningless?" He said no. And then I knew what I had to do. I had to quit. And I did (eventually). First I spent time building up my own business on the side. I don't know if I've ever really believed in myself. I just knew I didn't want the life I had. Sometimes believing in yourself just means you don't believe in what you're doing right now. And you have to change. Sara Blakey felt this way, too. She woke up one day, looked at her life and said, "I'm in the wrong movie." Now she's a self-made billionaire entrepreneur. But my friend Ryan Deiss said believing in yourself is possible. And I wanted to know more. He started his first business in college. And made $100K in revenue the first year. He sold eBooks online. "I had books on pretty much any topic," he said. One was about baby food. Then he partnered with mommy bloggers and sold it to their readers. (That's the formula for a great strategic partnership. Create something useful. Find someone with an untapped audience. Someone who's talking to the people you want to talk to but who isn't not offering what you have to offer.) Now, years later, he's the founder and CEO of DigitalMarketer. He's a transformer. He teaches people how to build profitable online businesses. He walked me through it. He told me about digital marketing. And how people use these skills everyday to start and grow their own businesses.. Here's what he said.. ------------What do YOU think of the show?

James Goes to Jail, and then… | James Brandolino Part 2

James Goes to Jail, and then… | James Brandolino Part 2

A Note from James:Yesterday, we talked all about how James Brandolino started a hedge fund, which was a fraud upon the scheme, all the illegal activity, and how he went from civil to criminal.  You could go back and listen to that, but also, dive into some of the details here. But most of all, this one starts with James Brandolino going to jail and what happened afterward.  Episode Description:Today, we conclude our interview with James Brandolino, a former hedge fund manager who turned himself in after running a fraudulent fund. Part Two begins with Brandolino's decision to face the consequences of his actions, including his incarceration and the aftermath of his fraud. He discusses his initial attempts to die by suicide, the moment of turning himself in, and the support he received from his family despite their being victims of his scheme. Brandolino talks about the challenges in maintaining a facade, the mechanics of creating fake audits, and how he was never caught by investors, despite many opportunities. The discussion also touches on the financial crisis of 2008, providing insights into how Brandolino could have used the situation to cover up his fraud. Brandolino shares the methodology of deceiving both savvy investors and due diligence processes, culminating in his realization of the wrongness of his actions, his time in prison, and his current efforts to prevent investment fraud. The interview explores the complexities of financial fraud from the perspective of someone who lived through it, offering unique insights into the signs of fraudulent activities and the psychological burden of committing fraud. Episode Summary:00:00 The Start of James Brandolino's Downfall01:16 The Emotional Toll and Decision to Turn Himself In03:43 The Complexity of Investor Trust and Fraudulent Audits13:25 Navigating Federal Prison: A New Reality21:21 The Journey of Rehabilitation and Reflection27:15 Unveiling the Complex World of Hedge Fund Audits27:47 The Intricacies of Financial Statements and Audits29:11 Real-World Examples of Financial Manipulation29:47 The Critical Role of Auditors in Detecting Fraud32:10 Navigating the Challenges of Hedge Fund Investments38:51 From Fraudster to Fraud Investigator: A Personal Journey45:18 The Importance of Due Diligence in Investment50:33 Life After Fraud: Redemption and New Beginnings  ------------What do YOU think of the show?

The Diary of a Fraudster | James Brandolino Part 1

The Diary of a Fraudster | James Brandolino Part 1

A Note from James:James Bandolino committed serious financial fraud - started a hedge fund which was a Ponzi scheme - went to jail for nine years, and we really dive into the details of his fraud, the psychology of it. What's critical is that not all frauds have the same flavor - all frauds are bad,  don't get me wrong. It is morally bad to be fraudulent. There's a reason why he went to jail. He wanted to go to jail. He tried to kill himself. It's amazing the story of how he failed to do that. But, before I give too much away we're going to discuss in detail the fraud and then tomorrow I'm going to release the story of him going to jail, what happened there, and how he came out the other side.So,  without further ado, let's dive into the details of the fraud that James Brandolino committed. Episode Description:This episode delves into the life of James Brandolino, a former hedge fund manager who crafted a Ponzi scheme leading to significant financial fraud. Brandolino pleaded guilty to mail fraud in August 2011 and was sentenced to 107 months in prison and ordered to pay $3,865,484 in restitution. It begins with an introduction to Brandolino's fraudulent activities, leading to his nine-year imprisonment. Altucher and Brandolino explore the psychology behind the fraud, emphasizing the gradual and unintentional entry into illegal activities. James Brandolino shares a detailed backstory of his trading career, starting with inspiration from the movie Trading Places and his progression in the financial sector, working at MF Global and creating a futures trading company. Initially, honest intentions led him to a Ponzi scheme when attempts to cover a minor initial loss spiraled out of control. The discussion includes technical aspects of his trading strategies and the choice to commit fraud to escape from admitting failure. In a dramatic turn, James attempts suicide but survives, leading to his voluntary surrender to authorities and incarceration. Episode Summary:00:00 The Intriguing Case of James Brandolino's Financial Fraud01:48 Diving Deep into the Psychology of Fraud02:26 The Early Trading Days and the Birth of a Scheme08:28 The Slippery Slope: From Legitimate Trading to Financial Fraud16:40 The Descent: Amplifying the Fraud and Facing the Consequences20:35 The Personal Toll of Financial Fraud21:18 The Isolation and Stress of Financial Deception24:00 Turning to Criminal Actions for Survival25:25 The High-Risk Attempts to Recover Losses28:05 The Psychological Battle and Trading Strategies36:12 Facing the Consequences and the Brink of Despair40:09 A Failed Suicide Attempt Leads to Redemption ------------What do YOU think of the show?

From Combat to Clarity: A Blueprint for Transformation | Wylie McGraw

From Combat to Clarity: A Blueprint for Transformation | Wylie McGraw

A Note from James:Wylie McGraw, a very interesting guy. He was a soldier for many years. He went to Afghanistan. He went to Iraq. He's been in bloody military engagements, and he's also a kind of unique kind of performance coach who tries to be disruptive in a way that many coaches are afraid to be to help his clients.Improve and upscale their lives. And so we talk about both things. First, I want, I always want to know this, and I've spoken about this with Jocko Willink as well, like, are any wars ever justified? So we kind of talk first about his military experience. And I asked that question and we had a conversation about it.And then we talk more specifically about what he does and how he's built. Uh, I don't want to call him a coach. He doesn't call himself a coach, but basically, he's become a high-performance expert for CEOs, celebrities, athletes, and so on. I'm always curious about that business and industry and how I could perform at a peak level, which I don't often do.And I'm trying to get better, at least figure it out a little bit more. So here's Wylie McGraw, and it's a really engaging conversation on a bunch of different levels. Episode Description:This insightful conversation with Wylie McGraw, a former soldier turned high-performance coach, sheds light on the intersection of personal development and true fulfillment. McGraw's journey from military service to coaching high-profile clients reveals his unique approach to overcoming personal challenges and traumas for genuine performance. Through discussing the importance of confronting inner demons and finding foundational peace, McGraw critiques conventional self-help methods and shares his intensive, personalized coaching method. Limiting his client list to maintain quality, McGraw focuses on deep, transformative growth over superficial success. His candid discussion covers topics from happiness and stress to the impact of personal history on behavior, providing a profound look at achieving meaningful success and impact amid life's challenges. Episode Summary:00:00 Meet Wylie McGraw: Soldier Turned Performance Coach02:24 Diving Deep into Wiley's Military Background and Perspectives02:40 The Emotional Journey of Writing 'War Was My Vacation'04:32 From Childhood to Combat: Wylie's Personal and Military Life05:35 The Complexities of War and Its Aftermath07:58 The Legacy of Military Service in Wylie's Family10:03 Reflecting on the Impact of Military Decisions and Leadership24:51 Transitioning from Military to Bull Riding and Baseball31:51 Wylie's Unique Approach to Performance Coaching39:36 The Unconventional Journey of Transforming Lives39:40 Navigating the Complexities of High-Profile Client Relationships41:27 The Intimate and Confidential Nature of Personal Development42:02 Challenging the Status Quo: A Unique Approach to Personal Growth46:28 Confronting and Overcoming Deep-Rooted Issues51:00 The Impact of Personal Transformation on Professional Success01:01:09 The Challenges of a Unique Business Model in Personal Development01:11:54 Exploring the Future: Books and the Quest for Understanding ------------What do YOU think of the show?

The Ultimate Biohacking Guide for Optimal Health | Dave Asprey

The Ultimate Biohacking Guide for Optimal Health | Dave Asprey

A Note from James:Dave Asprey was this fat aging tech entrepreneur who realized he was going on a bad path and so he completely changed his life around. He kind of went to the scientific sources and did the research himself and practically started the field of biohacking, of doing experiments on himself with his diet, with the supplements, with the devices he uses. And now it's as if he's 20 years younger than he was 20 years ago.He started Bulletproof Coffee, which I'm sure many of you have heard of, and a new coffee company called Danger Coffee. You've probably listened to him on this podcast. And now he just wrote the book Smarter, Not Harder. I'll describe that in a second.I want to tell a story when Dave asked, but he's been on the podcast a bunch of times when he was on in 20, I think it was 2016, it happened to be coincidentally the first day I was trying standup comedy. So at the end of that episode, it might have even been after we shut down the cameras, at the end of that episode, I asked him, "Dave, I'm doing standup comedy for the first time tonight, and I'm really nervous. What's your advice?" I just wanted to, he's a smart guy. I respect him. I just wanted to put him on the spot a little bit and see what his advice would be. And he thought about it for about a second. And then he said, "When you get up there, love your audience." And that is the best advice for a standup comedy that I have ever heard before or since.And it's really worked well for me. And I would say the same holds true when I write, I always love my audience. And when I do public speaking or even this podcast, I always picture in my head loving the audience. So what does Dave write about in Smarter, Not Harder? Well, his very interesting point is that humans, from an evolutionary perspective, should be somewhat lazy.We need to have a lot of energy when our fight or flight reflex triggers. Like when you have to run from the lion that's chasing you, you have to use a lot of energy very quickly. And then, you rest. But Dave's point is that in our society, just staring at screens, we get that fight-and-flight response sitting still.And so our body and mind don't know what's happening. And his argument is the same for exercise. His point is, and he, and you know, we'll see a lot of people are going to have different opinions on this. His point is you might not need to exercise for hours at a time because. That's not what the human body is supposed to do. It exerts itself for very short spurts of time and then rests. So his whole book is kind of his biohack experiments on exercise, sleep, diet, and how you can live your life to perform more optimally. You know, it's an anti-aging book, so it's in that category. We've done a lot of anti-aging.Podcasts and they're always very fascinating to me and I ask him very, very specific questions about food, supplements, and exercise because I always want to know what I should do. The answers are always enlightening. So anyway, once again, here is Dave Asprey.  Episode Description:In a comprehensive discussion about biohacking for better health, Dave Asprey, the founder of Bulletproof Coffee and Danger Coffee, shares his journey from overcoming personal health issues to pioneering in the biohacking space. The conversation expands into Asprey's latest venture, Danger Coffee, and the release of his book Smarter Not Harder, offering insights into efficient exercise, debunking nutrition myths, and providing a deep dive into bodily and mental wellness. The episode covers a broad range of topics including the importance of dietary choices, quality animal proteins, managing stress, optimizing hormones, and the role of supplements like NAD+, zinc, and magnesium. Asprey also touches on technological advancements with an AI tool for supplement guidance, and the crucial balance of testosterone for health. Through personal anecdotes...

How to boost Your Productivity Using Deliberate Slowness | Cal Newport

How to boost Your Productivity Using Deliberate Slowness | Cal Newport

A Note from James:Cal Newport has written such great books about how to be more productive, more creative, the titles of the books speak for themselves: 'So Good They Can't Ignore You', 'Deep Work', and this latest one is called 'Slow Productivity'. It's about how you ultimately succeed in getting more productive by going slower and sometimes doing nothing. Cal tells us how and why and we always have an interesting conversation. So here is Cal Newport!Episode Description:This episode explores the nuanced concept of 'Slow Productivity,' as championed by Cal Newport, across an engaging dialogue that sheds light on achieving more by intentionally slowing down. Newport, making his fifth appearance on the podcast, underscores the counterintuitive productivity philosophy through his journey, inspirations from his books like 'Digital Minimalism,' and the pivotal role of mindful work habits. Referencing historical and contemporary figures like Benjamin Franklin and John Grisham, Newport articulates the significance of deliberate practice, the fallacy of equating busyness with productivity, and the benefits of focused work. Additionally, the interview captures a personal milestone of applying for full professorship, emphasizing the importance of scholarly impact and steady progress. Through a blend of personal anecdotes, historical wisdom, and critique of modern work culture's inefficiencies, the discussion advocates for a transformative approach to work and creativity that values depth, reflection, and the strategic delegation of tasks.Episode Summary:00:00 Introduction to Cal Newport and His Work02:30 Cal's Journey as an Author and His Writing Process04:09 The Importance of Stories Over Studies in Books07:42 The Role of Workload in Productivity14:22 The Impact of Technology on Productivity14:52 The Shift to Remote and Hybrid Work20:30 The Importance of Structuring Your Day25:28 The Balance Between Hustle and Slow Productivity30:59 The Misconceptions of Young People About Work31:06 Balancing Grad School and Writing Books31:13 The Importance of Time Management32:03 The Reality of Workload and Social Interactions32:37 The Mythology of Speed in Work34:36 The Paradox of the Relaxed Rhodes Scholar35:12 The Role of Time in Productivity36:40 The Importance of Quality Over Quantity38:26 The Impact of Pseudo Productivity54:11 The Role of AI in Writing and Academia01:00:03 The Journey to Tenure and Beyond ------------What do YOU think of the show?

The Art of the Dirty Joke | Jackie "The Joke Man" Martling

The Art of the Dirty Joke | Jackie "The Joke Man" Martling

A Note from James:Gosh, I can't believe the story Jackie just told about Jeffrey Epstein and Trump and Clinton and everything, but first: Jackie "The Joke Man" Martling wrote for many years, 15 years for Howard Stern, wrote for Rodney Dangerfield, is an awesome standup comedian. He's just an all-around good guy. I remember the last time Jackie was on the podcast was years ago and, we were talking about what constitutes a "dirty joke".And he sent me these two huge books, like academic books, about the history of the dirty joke. That's the kind of just generous, good guy Jackie is. He just sent these books and they're fascinating. Jackie and I got together today. We talked about his history and what's going on and the documentary, 'Joke Man'. It's his whole story. It's really interesting. And his whole career is interesting.Towards the end - he didn't really hold back - but, I got him to tell this story of his experience with Jeffrey Epstein - and he's innocent of anything, don't make any assumptions there -  but it was just a fascinating story.So here he is, Jackie "The Joke Man" Martling. Episode Description:The episode weaves together the intriguing personal and professional tales of Jackie 'The Joke Man' Martling, touching upon his comedy career, notable relationships, and memorable experiences with figures like Jeffrey Epstein, Donald Trump, and Bill Clinton. It also details the evolution of Martling's documentary, 'Joke Man,' portraying his comedic journey and life anecdotes. James and Jackie talk about the evolution of the music industry from the era of Columbia Record Club to the digital age, exploring the changing dynamics of music consumption and artist revenue. Jackie tells stories anecdotes about Willie Nelson, the effects of the pandemic on New York's entertainment scene, and ambitions for a new comedy venue are discussed, highlighting a profound passion for comedy, music history, and the art of storytelling. Episode Summary:00:00 Introduction and Background01:52 Reconnecting with Old Friends02:42 The Gymnastics Journey04:52 The Comedy Scene and Connections08:45 The Art of Joke Telling11:32 The Howard Stern Show Experience14:10 The Post-Show Life16:06 The Art of Networking17:12 The Comedy and Life Philosophy37:31 The Jeffrey Epstein Story44:17 Unexpected Dinner with Jeffrey Epstein44:48 The Power of Jokes and Humor45:21 A Glimpse into the World of Famous Personalities46:25 The Art of Comedy and Storytelling47:31 An Unusual Encounter with Jeffrey Epstein49:56 The Dark Side of Donald Trump51:08 Reflections on Jeffrey Epstein's Scandal52:42 The Unpredictable Nature of Fame55:02 The Journey of 'Joke Man' Documentary55:30 The Legacy of the Stern Show01:17:38 The Impact of a Controversial Article01:24:03 A Final Anecdote: Yogi Berra and Moonstruck ------------What do YOU think of the show?

Unraveling the Legal Dramas: From Unprecedented Covid Shutdowns to Trump's Riveting Election Showdowns! | Jay Wexler (Author & Constitutional Law Prof.)

Unraveling the Legal Dramas: From Unprecedented Covid Shutdowns to Trump's Riveting Election Showdowns! | Jay Wexler (Author & Constitutional Law Prof.)

A Note from James: I'm confused. There are so many national and international issues being debated on constitutional grounds lately. For example, issues at the Texas border and federal versus state powers-like the case of friends versus the state of Colorado. Does a state have the right to decide who appears on the national presidential ballot?Regarding COVID-19, I'm wondering if it was constitutional to close down all the businesses. It might have been the right decision, but does it infringe on our right to life, liberty, and property without due process? I posed these questions to a renowned constitutional expert, the author of "The Odd Clauses," who is also a professor of constitutional law at Boston University, Jay Wexler. He provided insights into which recent events were constitutional and which may not have been. Here's what he had to say.Episode Description:James leads an enlightening conversation with Jay Wexler, a professor of constitutional law at Boston University and author of 'The Odd Clauses'. They explore topics ranging from state rights in decision-making, such as Texas' border policies and Colorado's stance on the national presidential ballot, to significant constitutional debates such as the power of the Supreme Court, the implications of COVID-19 business shutdowns, and the increasingly prominent discussions around freedom of speech and presidential powers. Wexler provides deep insights into each topic, shedding light on the constitutional underpinnings and contemporary interpretations that inform these critical national discussions. The discussion also touches on potential constitutional conflicts and the nuanced understanding required to navigate these issues, with particular emphasis on the importance of Constitution's adaptability over time and the ongoing debate between originalism versus evolutionary interpretation. Episode Summary:01:00 Introduction: The Constitution in the News01:46 Interview with Constitutional Expert Jay Wexler02:33 The Life of a Law Professor03:13 Challenges of Teaching in the Digital Age04:49 Constitutional Battles in Recent Years06:16 The Power of the Supreme Court07:00 The Intricacies of Marbury v.
