Ep. 284 - Frank Shamrock: The Making of a Legend: How a Criminal Became a Champion

Ep. 284 - Frank Shamrock: The Making of a Legend: How a Criminal Became a Champion

I asked Frank Shamrock, a living legend MMA fighter, "How many titles have you won?" "I think I won them all." He calls himself a "super athlete." So I told him he lacks humility... And we laughed. But he's right. He IS a super athlete. He evolved the art form. And went one level deeper than any opponent. He didn't just say "how do I crush this person?" He said "How is the body working? What is this machine? How can I use it optimize my performance?" "I was studying the biomechanics," Frank said. "And how to maximize it... everyone else studied technical fighting." But he wasn't always a fighter. He found the sport in jail. He was 11. He left home and learned "crime was a tool to change your situation and protect you," Frank said. His parents were abusing him. "I was an emotional basket case," he said. "I couldn't hold anything together for more than a few days, no sport, no activities I would just fall apart." He escaped through crime. " I actually threw rocks at a train and in California, that's a felony. I went and did ten days in juvenile hall." It was his first time away from his "family." His abusers... He was hanging out with all the other kids in juvie. So he started to ask questions. "How do you deal with x, y and z." He listed out all the abuse. They looked at him shocked and confused. And asked him repeatedly, "What are you talking about?" "You don't get locked in the closet till they get home?" he asked. They couldn't believe what they were hearing. That's when this small 11-year-old realized he had to get out. "When things didn't work out, I knew what to do: commit a crime, go back to juvenile hall, see my friends..." The cycle didn't stop. He turned 17. Committed another crime and went to prison for 3 and a half years. "Because I was married and an emancipated minor, anything that I did illegally was charged as an adult." THIS was Frank's wake up call. It all fell on him. He had ruined his life. He had 20 felonies, no education, and a baby to support. "I know what the bottom is like," he said. "I know what it's like to have zero. You can always build up. But it starts by changing your mind and taking action." This is a story about the making of a legend. It's the story of a criminal turned champion. I want to take these lessons and apply them to my own life. I realized I don't have to fight, but I can at least live with the mindset of a fighter.

The Realities of Entrepreneurship with Mike & Kass Lazerow

A Note from James:So, in 2006, I was starting this company called StockPicker. This random guy calls me out of the blue and says, "I want to be CEO of your company. I just sold Golf.com and now I'm figuring out what to do." So we meet for breakfast, and he gave me all these ideas that were great. I stole all of them, built up StockPicker, and sold it. This guy and his wife then started their own company, and eventually sold it for $800 million. We've been friends all along.

This Election is NOT What You Think

This Election is NOT What You Think

A Note from James:"So, you know, just like last week, I wanted to bring a somewhat neutral point of view to all the wild conspiracy theories, allegations, rumors, and actual facts about the Trump assassination attempt. I wanted to comment on the conspiracy theories. What are the facts? What could be our open questions? And just state the truth about what's going on without any BS political bias. The reason there's bias is that right from the beginning, we have an election coming up. Democrats want to win. Republicans want to win. They hate each other. And so, they keep throwing these weird accusations at each other. Some of which may be true, most of which are not.So now, we have Biden basically dropping out of the race. Kamala taking his place. What's being said? What is this being compared to? What has happened in the past? What are the conspiracies, and what's true and what's not? Someone actually wrote to me and said they were quite upset. I was taking a neutral point of view. I won't say what party this person was from. He thought I should not be neutral. My whole point is not necessarily that I have no feelings about any of these issues. I actually have quite a lot of feelings about the issues. But I am disgusted with how easy it is to see the bias in the headlines, in the accusations, whether it was CNN headlines, MSNBC headlines, or Fox headlines. You could just see how gross the bias was and how just lacking in morals and ethics and even business model the mainstream media has. I just wanted to bring some truth to the discussion.So let's get right into it."Episode Description:In this episode of "The James Altucher Show," James tackles the contentious and dramatic events surrounding the 2024 election. With Biden dropping out and Kamala Harris stepping in, the political landscape is charged with conspiracy theories and partisan biases. James navigates through the noise to present a factual and neutral perspective on the Trump assassination attempt, the Democratic power struggles, and the unprecedented political maneuvers. Listeners will gain insights into the historical parallels, the behind-the-scenes power plays, and what these developments mean for the future of American politics.What You'll Learn:The factual background of the Trump assassination attempt and its impact on the political climate.Analysis of Biden's decision to drop out and Kamala Harris's rise to the candidacy.Historical precedents that compare to the current political situation.The internal power struggles within the Democratic Party.The potential impact of third-party candidates like RFK Jr. on the 2024 election.Chapters:00:01:30 - Introduction to the Trump Assassination Attempt00:03:24 - Biden's Decline and the 2024 Debate00:05:43 - Democratic Party Power Struggles00:07:01 - Impeachment and Political Bias00:16:22 - Historical Precedents and Political Uncertainty00:31:43 - RFK Jr. and Third-Party Candidates00:37:46 - Predictions and Final ThoughtsAdditional Resources:Hunter S.

Assassination Attempt on Trump: The Facts, Theories, Future of Democracy, and My Love Letter to America

Assassination Attempt on Trump: The Facts, Theories, Future of Democracy, and My Love Letter to America

A Note from James:"So during COVID, every single day, I was doing a podcast because I felt there was so much misinformation in the mainstream media. Everyone was saying conspiracy theories, and nobody was getting the math right on how infections like COVID-19 spread. I just wanted to make the information more correct every day, explain what was going on, and try to translate why so much of the mainstream news was wrong-not just about COVID but about the effects on the economy from the shutdowns and the printing of trillions of dollars. Many of the things spoken about then have come to pass.On COVID, it was more of an attempt to understand what was unknown by the public, what were conspiracy theories, and what was misinformation. I tried to understand from a rational point of view what was going on. Rationality is not part of the mainstream media anymore.We're seeing this again with the Trump assassination attempt-on every side, by the way. This is not intended to be a political podcast, although I will talk about some of the politics involved. So, I want to go through what happened, some of the conspiracy theories about this kind of stuff in general, some of the history behind this, and perhaps we'll get into some more recent events. This is a news-filled week: just a few days after the assassination attempt is the nomination of JD Vance as the vice presidential candidate for the Republican party. It's a very historic event, and I will comment on that as well. But let's start with this assassination attempt."Episode Description:James breaks down the recent assassination attempt on former President and presidential candidate Donald Trump. He provides historical context, drawing parallels to past attempts on major political figures, and discusses the ensuing conspiracy theories from all sides of the political spectrum. Listeners will gain a clear, rational perspective on the events and their implications for the upcoming election and beyond.What You'll Learn:The historical context of assassination attempts on U.S. political figures.An analysis of conspiracy theories surrounding the Trump assassination attempt.The implications of the assassination attempt on the current political landscape.How media bias and misinformation shape public perception during political crises.The potential impact of this event on the upcoming presidential election and economic markets.Chapters:01:30 - Misinformation During COVID02:12 - Mainstream Media Rationality02:34 - Trump Assassination Attempt: An Overview03:33 - Historical Assassination Attempts: George Wallace and Theodore Roosevelt06:19 - Secret Service Protection Protocols10:15 - Conspiracy Theories Debunked17:02 - Secret Service and Political Bias25:08 - The Fallout: Public and Media Reactions28:08 - Trump's Response: "Fight, Fight, Fight"40:18 - Economic Impact: Bitcoin and Stock Market Reactions42:33 - JD Vance: A New VP Candidate47:26 - Reflections on Political PolarizationAdditional Resources:Hillbilly Elegy by JD VanceSecret Service Protocols and History ------------What do YOU think of the show?

How to Have Impossible Conversations when Facts Don't Matter! Peter Boghossian

How to Have Impossible Conversations when Facts Don't Matter! Peter Boghossian

A Note from James:You know, it's election season, and guess what?  Everybody is annoyed right now. Do you know why? It's not that their opinions are annoying, I could care less, but everybody wants to know your opinions on everything. And you know what? It's a dangerous time right now. You could have opinions about who should be president, you could have opinions about Israel, you could have opinions about Ukraine, and you see people had opinions and like, okay, my friend has this opinion, I have a different opinion.That's not true anymore. Now people hate you for your opinions, whether you're on the left or the right or whatever. And even worse, nobody ever believes that you're just not interested, that you're neutral. Like I've written for the past 15 years what I think of the presidency. Heck, I've written, I'm even running for president and People say you can't be neutral or not have an opinion on Joe Biden and Donald Trump.If you go to FEC.gov,  I decided I could completely not have an opinion if I ran for president myself, so I filled out all the paperwork and I'm running for president. Officially, not seriously, really, but still to the point where if anyone asked my opinion, I could just say, I don't like either of them because I'm running against them.So anyway, it's very hard to have difficult conversations, which is why I'm so glad my friend Peter Boghossian wrote a book, How to Have Impossible Conversations. And this is valuable stuff to listen to during election time. Here he is.Episode Description:Facts Don't Matter! Over the past year, people are either on one side or another, and they're so into their own beliefs, it's almost impossible to have a reasonable and proper conversation with either side!
