EP 61: Dan John on Fitness Cults and Making Better Decisions
In my most dynamic discussion with Dan John yet, we talk through the gamut of fitness ideas, this time with a slight theological bend. Including: - How to make the right fitness (and life) decisions through a mix of experience, statistics, and authority. - Why joining a fitness "cult" isn't such a bad thing, so long as you know what you're looking for. - How to manage choices and put success in your way. And on, and on. This episode could be my favorite yet. NOT to be missed.

EP 54: Perry Marshall on 80/20 Marketing, Evolution, and God
Perry Marshall, best selling author of 80/20 sales and marketing, and Evolution 2.0, joins me to discuss the power of pattern recognition, and how life operates according to certain (often predictable) set of principles. Catch the patterns, Perry says, and people will think you can walk on water. Our conversation wanders, as good generalist conversations do, from everything to marketing, evolution, fitness, even God.
