319 - Cheryl Richardson: Personal Growth: How to Give Yourself a Radical Upgrade
Self-care. What does that even mean? I called the expert: Cheryl Richardson. She's written several New York Times bestsellers and I owe her credit for helping me cultivate new thinking whenever I needed it. When I was most scared, I'd call Cheryl. And she'd say, "Your best thinking got you here, (to the worst situation of your life, to your complete bottom), so you probably need the thinking of somebody else." She's always been right.

318 - Paul Mecurio: Scary, But Not Impossible… Leaving the Job You Hate for the One You'd Love
Wait! Before I say "comedian." Let me tell you who Paul Mecurio really is. He's a transformer. A true re-inventor. He started out at as a lawyer on Wall Street. Because it was logical. And he got used to making 2, 3... 4 million dollars a year (after bonuses vested). It was hard to give it up... at first.But he still made little efforts. And those efforts add up. Overtime Paul stopped taking notes in meetings. He wrote jokes instead. And then one day he got a chance to meet Jay Leno. And he started living a double life. If the senior partners knew what he was doing, they wouldn't tolerate it. He'd be out. Immediately. This was a gamble. But it was worth it...

317 - Annie Duke: The Fastest Way to Become an Expert at Anything
For two decades Annie Duke ranked as one of the top poker players in the world. Which means she won a lot. But she couldn't win without losing. I'll explain. It's hard to learn when you win, I think. Because if you win, then you think you're a genius, but if you lose you blame your opponent for being "lucky". So how do you become a real master... Skip the 10,000 hour rule. There's a hack. And Annie figured it out. Listen now.

Aaron Berg is "the fearless comedian." And I think that's a compliment. How would you like if someone call you "the fearless (whatever you are)." Fill in the blank. I wanted to learn that skill.

315 - Kevin Allocca: The Economics of Entertainment... This is What Makes Videos Go Viral
Kevin Allocca is "Head of Culture and Trends" at YouTube. He's been there for 8 years. So he knows how videos go viral. But more than that, Kevin knows the economics of entertainment. He told me how to get a message out (because no one reads books anymore. It's easier to get hits online than hits on Kindle.) So what's the first step? "You gotta start making something," he said. "Especially when you're trying to establish what your voice is, what your perspective is... these things need to be sort of incubated in a way." Show Notes: Videocracy: How YouTube Is Changing the World . . . with Double Rainbows, Singing Foxes, and Other Trends We Can't Stop Watching by Kevin Allocca Kevin's TED talk "Why videos go viral" Ylvs's videos: "What Does the Fox Say" and "What's the Meaning of Stonehenge" GANGUM STYLE David after Dentist Charlie bit my finger The making of GANGUM STYLE The Star Wars Kid Chocolate Rain with Tay Zonday My interview with Erika Ender (songwriter of Despacito, which has 4+ billion views on YouTube) "Lazy Sunday" by Adam Samberg (an SNL Original short) Bo Burnham & Amanda Sings (people who started on YouTube and then made it into career) Ze Frank (created the video unit at BuzzFeed) "Friday" by Rebecca Black Tosh.O https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYJCulUgtmg I write about all my podcasts.

314 - Sara Blakely [Anniversary Episode]: How to Get a Billion Dollar Idea
Sara Blakely is a self-made billionaire. She's the founder and creator of Spanx. I interviewed her exactly a year ago. But all of her advice (learned directly from DOING) is still impacting me today. I had to re-listen. And I hope you do, too. I wrote an article "What I Learned From Spanx Founder Sara Blakely." Sometimes I re-read it to remind myself of everything she taught me. Some people are inspirations for life. Sara is one of those people. Check out the full post and learn what I learned at jamesaltucher.com/podcast. Thanks so much for listening!
