My goal with this podcast is to try and find legitimately interesting people who can hold a conversation. Luke is one such human. After recently writing his excellent book, Wanting, we spend over an hour talking about nearly everything else other than the book. Especially my favourite topic: the cult of experts.About LukeLuke has co-created and led four companies in wellness, consumer products, and technology. He’s currently Entrepreneur-in-Residence and Director of Programs at the Ciocca Center for Principled Entrepreneurship where he also teaches business at The Catholic University of America.Read more about Lukehttps://lukeburgis.com/about/https://lukeburgis.com/book/https://twitter.com/lukeburgis

It was a pleasure to finally manage to sit down with Andrew and talk to him about courses, learning and how the hell you can actually promote this stuff without losing your mind. We also get into our evolving opinions of Twitter and promoting ourselves in general, how to do it whilst keeping sane, and how best we can launch courses that still feel genuine.About AndrewAndrew is the online course guy. He ran the On Deck Course Creator Fellowship for its first and only cohort and continues to work with course creators and companies in online education.Read more about Andrewhttps://curiouslion.notion.site/Become-a-Superstar-Teacher-f443fc94c4ff47d99408e2ef2a24afcbhttps://twitter.com/Bazzaruto

After my first episode with Nick, I immediately wanted him back. This time we were to talk about more esoteric stuff (my words), stuff less related to performance. It was a pleasure having Nick on again, but we didn't get too deep into philosophy like I wanted to. That's for round 3.About NickNick Winkelman is the head of athletic performance & science for the Irish Rugby Football Union. His primary role is to oversee the delivery and development of strength & conditioning and sports science across all national (Men and Women) and provincial teams (Leinster, Munster, Connacht, and Ulster).Read more about Nickhttps://www.thelanguageofcoaching.com/https://www.instagram.com/nickwinkelmanhttps://twitter.com/nickwinkelmanNick's House music: https://soundcloud.com/movere

I've known and connected with Benjamin through Twitter over the last year, and he's an excellent and wide-ranging thinker. I've been wanting to get him on the podcast for a while but it's mainly my schedule that has made it take this long to get together...In this chat we talk about everything from NFTs to the modern way of working, and why he recently left his job when he was asked to stop working from home.You'll enjoy this one.Read more about Benjaminhttps://twitter.com/BenjaminGJW

Colin is fascinating to me, because he does something that in the UK I couldn't even imagine happening for a long time: he sells weed legally. And not only does he sell weed, he sells a LOT of weed.As CTO of Unrivaled Brands—a publicly traded cannabis brand—Colin continues to push into new and bigger markets and build something pretty amazing.I got to sit down with him for nearly an hour and quiz him about how it all works. What about regulation? How do you manage different packaging and product needs in different states? How do you make any money with all these regulations?And just how do you manage to sell yourself honestly and authentically when there's a stigma attached?I had a truly excellent conversation here and I hope you enjoy it.About ColinColin is CTO at Unrivalled Brands.Read more about Colinhttps://twitter.com/landforcehttps://builders.build/https://unrivaledbrands.com

I think Emmy is my spirit animal.

I discovered Ed Latimore on Twitter around 2015/2016. He was one of the only voices I found around that time talking sense on there and I loved everything he wrote. Fast forward quite a few years and it's a real honour for me to get to sit down and chat to him for an hour on the podcast.This conversation is far-reaching and wide-ranging. We cover a tiny bit about Twitter, but then we really get into some meaningful topics that I think you'll really enjoy. Ed is a great thinker and it was fun to think with him for a while.About EdEd is a former Heavyweight pro boxer (13-1-1) and full-time author. He writes about how to develop stoic street-smarts and realise your potential.Read more about Edhttps://twitter.com/edlatimorehttps://instagram.com/EdLatimorehttps://edlatimore.com/

What is there really to say about Chris Williamson? A climbing YouTube and podcasting star with his excellent Modern Wisdom podcast, it was an honour to sit down with him for an hour and chat all things self improvement, realty TV, and rather surprisingly: how to work out when you have enough.We ended up on a tangent that lasts for the majority of the episode here that I think you'll really enjoy, and it's a topic not enough people are discussing in the improvement world.About ChrisChris is a Podcaster, YouTuber, TEDx Speaker, Ex-Professional Party Boy.

I met Alex on Twitter when he was first starting out and immediately became curious about the mind maps he was sharing and his friendly attitude.
