426 - Gilbert Gottfried: Laugh Everyday (It's Medicine For Your Day)

Gilbert Gottfried started doing stand-up comedy when he was 15 years old. He dropped out of high school and within 10 years he was on Saturday Night Live. And he built his career up from there. But he's also been the center of a lot of controversies. People get upset at comedians for "going too far." But Gilbert does it for a reason... He said, "I remember, I did this show that was a tribute to Joan Rivers. It was right after there was that shooting at a gay nightclub. I started doing jokes about the shooting and the audience was laughing all the way through and you know, Joan Rivers has a large gay audience. One guy tweeted me and he said, 'I never thought that I'd wake up crying and go to sleep laughing.'" It's easy to misunderstand people. And get upset. Whenever I'm made, I say to myself, "This means I'm not understanding something." So then I move that anger into curiosity. I kept asking Gilbert about his jokes. And we walked me through the humor. This episode will make you laugh and maybe uncomfortable but I promise the laughter makes it all worth it. The laughter is medicine for your day. I write about all my podcasts!

425 - David Rubenstein: The Importance of Having a Good 2nd and 3rd Life (Lessons From The Co-Founder of The Carlyle Group)

I got nervous because David Rubenstein is the co-founder and co-chariman of The Carlyle Group, which is the biggest private equity firm maybe in the world. They own hundreds of companies and have $200 billion in assets. He's also the chairman of a lot of other things: The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, The Smithsonian and he also has his on show, "The David Rubenstein show," where he's interviewed so many brilliant people. His success could be intimating. But he doesn't want it to be. He said, "I'm 69. I didn't start Carlye until I was 37. Maybe people find what they love earlier. I found out later I life." Then he walked me through this. He told me how he stumbled into his new love for philanthropy and the careers he experimented with early on his life and how he learned how to develop new skills at different stages of his career (like motivation and persuasion.) David says this is all part of his third life. That's what this episode is about. The importance of having a good second and third life. I write about all my podcasts!

424 - Byron Allen: How To Make History in Your Dream Industry (A Story About Outsmarting The Standards)

Bryon Allen has 3 rules in business: "Don't let anyone come between you and the customer. Don't run out of money. And don't break rules #2 and #3." But he didn't know these rules when he got started. He says people weren't betting on the young black boy born in Detroit... in the 60's... to a 17-year-old teenage mother. But he defied the odds. And found his passion early on (age 12). This episode walks you through Byron's success from comedian to writer to TV producer and distributor... all the way up to the top. Now, he owns "Entertainment Studios," (the TV production company he started at his kitchen table). This is the story of someone who decides to make history. I write about all my podcasts!

422 - George Gilder: How to Think Like a Futurist

George Gilder is a 79 year old super futurist. He's the author of #2 book in China, "Life after Google The Fall of Big Data and the Rise of the Blockchain Economy." I had him on the podcast because he's somehow been able to predict the future for decades. Steve Jobs read his book in 1990 and passed it around to friends. "So I believe I had some vague influence on the evolution of iPhone," George said. Now he's investigating the future of blockchain, bitcoin and more. And in this episode, I ask him to teach me how to think like a futurist so I can profit (financially, creatively intellectually and personally). I write about all my podcasts!

418 - T.J. Miller: Don’t Take Yourself Seriously = Success

TJ Miller is a comedian and actor. You've seen him in Silicon Valley, Deadpool, Ready Player One, and more. I kept asking him about his success. And how he got there. He told me to stop trying "manufacture" it. I laughed. He kept cracking jokes. He'll make you laugh. And think. Because he studies a lot of philosophy. That's where a lot of his comedy comes from. Absurdism + philosophy + storytelling. This episode will probably make you laugh and question at the same time. One other thing... Even though TJ told me not to formulae his success, I still did. Here is it... don't take yourself seriously + hard work = success. I write about all my podcasts! Check out the full post and learn what I learned at jamesaltucher.com/podcast.

417 - Jamie Kilstein interviews Me About Escaping The Noise and Finding What Works For You

I went on Jamie Kilstein's podcast. And the conversation got intense. So I asked to publish it on my podcast, too. Here it is. I wanted to repost it because he told me what he does to make an impact in life. And how this has changed for him over time. I could relate. I used to waste energy on things that don't matter. Or stop me from progressing in a way that actually makes me feel better than I did yesterday. So we talk about that. But also, comedy, some books we like, Twitter Wars, why I'm bad with money, why I'm good with money and more.

416 - Phillip Stutts: The Strategy To Win (Marketing in The Digital Age)

Phillip Stutts has been at the forefront of defining digital campaigning in politics. He has gotten presidents elected. He's gotten senators elected. He's gotten all sorts of political offices elected. I wanted to hear the strategy behind those wins. And how it can be applied to business. But I also wanted to ask Phillip about his rare, incurable disease. Because he set a goal to find the cure in 5 years. Even though he has absolutely zero experience in medical research or any of that, he felt inspired to "stop doing nothing." So I ask him about that inspiration and drive, too.

411- Wyclef Jean: From Poverty to The World Stage (How to Dream a New Reality)

Wyclef Jean is one of my favorite artists/rappers/creators. He came from the worst ghettos in Brooklyn. And before that, he came from Haiti. I wanted to know how he took the leap... because so many people are afraid to try. He would imagine himself singing in front of audiences when he was just singing behind the counter at Burger King. And eventually, that vision was reality. I write about all my podcasts! Check out the full post and learn what I learned at jamesaltucher.com/podcast. Thanks so much for listening!

410 - AJ Jacobs: How I Reduce Stress Daily

AJ Jacobs traveled all around the world to say "thanks" to all the people involved in making his morning cup of coffee. Then he wrote about it in his new book "Thanks a Thousand." He thanked everyone from the farmers to the truckers and so on. Then I did my own gratitude experiment (during this podcast). I called the professor who signed the letter that got me thrown out of graduate school. And I said "thanks..." I write about all my podcasts!

409 - Dan Schawbel: The Cure to Loneliness at Work AND How to Leverage Each Step of Your Career

Dan Schawbel has the ultimate life plan. He started as the youngest columnist at BusinessWeek, then he created his own personal branding blog, then he became an online contributor for Forbes, then Forbes Magazine (print edition)... He takes each thing he does and leverages it to get to the next level. Eventually, he'll be a coach for c-suite executives. But for now (in this interview) I had him break down his life plan, tell me how to leverage each micro step further and further so you can get to where you want to go and I had him tell me about his new book, ""Back to Human: How Great Leaders Create Connection in the Age of Isolation." He broke down the stats for me... and told me how we can stop being lonely and start being human. I write about all my podcasts!

408 - James Frey: Breaking The Rules, Writing & Becoming Yourself Again

James Frey is a controversial writer. On purpose. He wanted to be "the most notorious writer in the world." He ran off to Paris to be a writer when he was 21. He published a bestseller 12 years later ("A Million Little Pieces"). That's 12 years of failure. He told me about those 12 years, his writing style, how he developed a voice, rehab, addiction, depression... but mostly about learning how to become yourself again. Links and Resources: Read James' books: "A Million Little Pieces" "Katerina" "My Friend Leonard" "Bright Shiny Morning" "The Final Testament of the Holy Bible" "Endgame: The Complete Training Diaries: Volumes 1, 2, and 3 (Endgame: The Training Diaries)" "Endgame: Sky Key" "Endgame: Rules of the Game" "Endgame: The Calling" "Endgame: The Complete Zero Line Chronicles (Endgame: The Zero Line Chronicles)" I write about all my podcasts!

Charlemagne got kicked out of two high schools. He was a class clown and his teachers said he was "disruptive." Now he gets paid to be disruptive and a class clown... on radio. "I took those so called flaws and made them my strength." And now he's the number one radio personality out there. He told me how he got there. And the anxiety he suffered from getting there.

406 - Howard Marks: Billionaire Investor on Market Cycles (How to Survive the Bad Days & Win the Good Days)

Howard Marks is #374 on the Forbes richest list. He co-founded Oaktree Capital Management and is worth $1.9 billion. I asked, "Do you hate being introduced as a billionaire?" He said, "I do. I don't think that how much money I have sums me up and I don't think it's the greatest thing about me." And he's right. He can't teach you how to be a billionaire. He can only teach you what he knows: investing strategies, market cycles, philosophy, psychology, and how he used all of this to create freedom and wellbeing in life. He writes about this in his new book, "Mastering the Market Cycle: Getting the Odds on Your Side." The book is as much about finance and market cycles as it is about personal cycles.

405 - John C. McGinley: When to Quit Your Dream & When to Go All In

John C. McGinley has been in 80+ movies, he's been in six Oliver Stone movies and all nine seasons of "Scrubs." And now, he's celebrating the 3rd season of "Stan Against Evil," where he's acting AND writing. We talked about acting, improving, auditioning. We talked about the pressure and who should not get into acting... But then about 45 minutes in, I asked him about his experience parenting a child with down syndrome. Four days into his son's life, John had to make life or death decisions about heart surgery. His life focus changed completely. It had to. And John rose up to it. This podcast really touches on all aspects of life... everything from having a dream to fulfilling it and then seeing your life rotate. Something I think a lot of people can relate to.

404 - Noam Dworman: The Risk of Censorship…

I talk to Noam Dworman, owner of the Comedy Cellar about censorship, starting and running a small family-owned business, freedom of information vs. freedom of speech (which is more important?) and... Louis C.K.'s return to the stage. Some background: a few weeks ago, Louis C.K. showed up at the Comedy Cellar. Noam wasn't there. He got a text. "Louis's here." He saw it the next morning. Now everyone is asking Noam, "Where do you draw the line?" He's gotten death threats. I told Noam "When we were growing up no one had peanut allergies. A generation later, because we've disinfected everything, millions of kids have peanut allergies. And now, people are allergic to language. It doesn't seem like this trend ever reverses. First, we were disinfecting our food. Now we're disinfecting language. What's next?" Links and Resources Comedy Cellar Also Mentioned Louis (tv show) Fat Black Pussy Cat Village Underground Cafe Wha?

403 - Robert Greene: The Laws of Human Nature... (Why We Are The Way We Are)

Robert Greene is one of my all-time favorite authors and brilliant thinkers. He just came out with a new book, "The Laws of Human Nature." And I can already tell you this going to be one of my top recommended reads for the next 10, 20, 30 years. It's the type of book that makes me feel like my IQ is actually going up while reading it. It explains all of this hidden science behind human behavior. It explains why we see so much irrational behavior around us and in ourselves. Then he tells you ways you can start to change your behavior. And actually feel like you're becoming who you want to be. So enjoy this episode. - James P.S.

401 - Chip Conley: Is Retirement Dead? How To Find Your Calling (Even When You're 50+)

Chip Conley is the Head of Hospitality for Airbnb. He started working there at age 52. And quickly realized he was double the age of everyone in the room, didn't understand the tech lingo, and was not there for the reasons he thought he was. "So I decided, 'Gosh the only way I'm going to survive here is to be as much of a curious learner as the wise sage," Chip said. And that's what he did. Six and a half years later he's still an advisor to the (now) billionaire founders of Airbnb. This podcast is perfect for anyone trying to find their calling.

399 - Neil deGrasse Tyson: What is The Truth? The Real Science of Inquiry

"If the world ends it's because people in power didn't listen to the warnings of physicists," Neil deGrasse Tyson said. Neil is the world's window into physics. And he just came out with a new book "Accessory to War: The Unspoken Alliance Between Astrophysics and the Military." He told me how physicists think. And this kind of thinking can be used to make you a better communicator, help you to avoid conflict, make smart decisions, but he also told me odd stories.

My favorite movies wouldn't exist without Michael Ovitz. Think: Jurassic Park, Ghostbusters, Schindler's List! But he believes "great projects always surface." So I had him tell me about all the projects he worked with. And the talent (Paul Newman, Robert Redford, Dan Aykroyd and more). He told me how he left the mailroom of one talent agency to start his own. Which THEN became the biggest talent agency in Hollywood, Creative Artists Agency (CAA). Later on, Michael went on to become the #2 guy at Disney. Now, he has a bestselling book called, "Who Is Michael Ovitz?"

I've known Tucker Max for 2 decades now. 20 years ago, he emailed me for advice. I told him to quit his job. And he did. He's the bestselling author of "I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell." And I always tell people that if they want to study good writing, go read 10 pages of Tucker's books. "My stuff blew up... All I did was stand up and use my real name and tell my real stories about my real life." So now Tucker wants to help other people get out there and tell their truth. This part 1 of my interview will tell you how to separate the truth from everything else. Then (in part 2), Tucker will tell you how to deal with fear, how to find your audience, and how to write.

392 - William Shatner: Live Long And ... Lessons from an Intergalactic Legend

Captain Kirk has always been one of my heroes. So when Steve told me I'd get to interview the intergalactic legend, I immediately teleported back to my 11-year-old self. Star Trek made it possible for people to look up at the stars and wonder what else is out there. So I brought William Shatner on and asked him everything. He told me about the brief period in his career when he lived out of his truck, he told me what he's doing to live so long (he's 87), and then we had a BIG surprise. Michio Kaku (one of the most brilliant physicists alive today) was in the audience. Halfway through the podcast, we invited him on stage. If you've ever wondered what else is out there... in space and in your own life, the possibilities of true fulfillment, then you have to listen to this episode. Links & Resources: WilliamShatner.com Live Long And . . .: What I Learned Along the Way by William Shatner "Why Not Me?"

389 - Brandon Webb: Mastering Fear (A Navy SEAL's Guide)

Brandon is a Navy SEAL. He's experienced some of the most terrifying, life-threatening situations you can imagine. He's also been through a divorce. So I like talking to him about that. And he also runs his own business (a media to commerce called the Hurricane Group). He's not getting shot at anymore. But he still has to deal with fear: business fears, family fears, money fears, etc. "Fear is something we're going to live with for the rest of our lives," he said. So I had him break down his process in his new book, "Mastering Fear: A Navy SEAL's Guide." I write about all my podcasts!

Finding Your “Network of Wisdom”

I'm not alone in my problems. But it's easy to think I am. And that's scary. It's miserable. So, instead, I lean on my "network of wisdom." A group of people who I can call when I need to.

Dad Issues & Drinking Problems

Bert Kreischer told me about his relationship with his dad. And he makes it sound funny (because he's a comedian), but then Bert says, "We all have issues with our dad." Which may or not be true, but at least, I feel comfort in hearing someone else share what they go through. Plus, Bert makes it funny. So there's that comedic relief.

What's Your "Natural Personality?"

When Bert Kreischer was little, he did some cute little kid thing on the baseball field. But his dad didn't think it was cute. Or appropriate. And Bert says that "who that kid was" is the core of his "natural personality." Which mirrors the fact that we all grow up somehow. And we all stay the same, too.

The Power of Perception - Bert Kreischer on "Finding Out He Was Fat"

Bert took his shirt off on stage. He did an hour special on Netflix called "Secret Time" and he's topless the whole time. Someone even wrote him a 5-page letter explaining why it offended her. Bert didn't care. But what I thought was even funnier than that is the fact that he says he didn't know he was fat. "I thought I looked good." Here's Bert on the power of perception.
