This week James hosts his good friend and best-selling author of The 4-Hour Workweek, Tim Ferriss.Before every interview, James spends hours reviewing his guest's work so he can come up with something different and something very special.This interview proved to be the most difficult in regard to preparation, so far. Not because Tim Ferriss doesn't have anything interesting to talk about (quite the opposite), but because James didn't want to ask him the same old questions he gets asked on every interview. "Can you really only work 4 hours a week?" "Did you really do the things you wrote about?" "Is it actually possible to get the results that you did?" Blah, Blah, Blah.Tim Ferriss has done many different, interesting things besides writing his "4 hour series," and James explores many of those passions on this podcast.And don't worry, this isn't "The 4 Hour Podcast."

Ken Kurson, editor of The New York Observer, political consultant, journalist, and author, joins The James Altucher Show"You've created a 'Choose Yourself Career.'" Nobody could have just given you the career you've had. You've had to go and hunt for that career. You had to kill for that career. You made it up yourself as you went along.This week, Ken Kurson, editor of The New York Observer, political consultant, journalist, and author, joins The James Altucher Show to talk about who will be the next President of the United States, the future of the media, and Ken's million-dollar deal that's still out there for the right entrepreneur to grab and run with."Green was my one great idea in my life." There really is room, in my opinion, for a legitimate inheritor to the Greenmantle." James and Ken then jump right into what it was like to work with America's Mayor, Rudy Guilliani. You'll get a firsthand look at what it's like running for President of the United States and what it takes to win.James asks Ken who he thinks the 2016 Republican and Democratic front runners are right now. You might be very surprised by his picks.They talk about getting rid of our two-party system because, as James says, "It doesn't seem to work at all. The candidates are very similar. I mean, in very rare cases, can I tell a difference in policy, actually, between Obama and Bush. It just seems like the two-party system and the lack of democracy, as you mentioned, is just a total failure."But Ken disagrees... "Yeah, I don't agree. I think the two-party system is a disaster except for all the other systems that have tried democracy which is an inversion of the old democracy is terrible except for all the other systems."And so James offers up a brand-new, high-tech system that he believes could really help.Plus, James asks Ken "So what's next in the media industry?" I think you'll be very surprised by Ken's answer... "I don't think Twitter is the end of news. I believe we're kind of in a golden age of attention span. There's never been a time where people would watch 13 hours of beautifully written television in a row; the same show. I think it's really the beginning."Hope you enjoy. ------------What do YOU think of the show?

It's a question many of us are too afraid to answer.. "Is this as good as it gets?" Perhaps you feel that way from time to time. You get stuck in an unfulfilling job. You get stuck with a mortgage you can barely pay, in a house that didn't make you any happier than your previous home. You get stuck in a negative relationship. And you wonder if things will ever get better. James Altucher knows the feeling well. And in the latest episode of his radio show, he shows you exactly how to get "un-stuck" by making your negative life experiences work for you instead of against you. The type of unconventional ideas you'll hear on his show made James a millionaire... and many of his guests have done the same. This week's guest is no exception.. Dr. Wayne Dyer has seen plenty of obstacles in his life... but his attitude and belief in the power of self-reliance have earned him the title "father of motivation" by his fans. A hard worker since his first paper route at age 9, Dr. Dyer says, "There's never been a moment when I was unemployed, ever." He was an orphan, served in the military, taught at a prestigious university, had eight children of his own, and made a comfortable life for himself in Hawaii. To say he is influential is an understatement. His first book, Your Erroneous Zones, was not only a New York Times bestseller, but it sold more than 100 million copies in 47 languages... and was even smuggled to readers living behind the Iron Curtain of the 1980's. He is one of the most prolific writers of our time. In fact, he has authored 40 books. But like we mentioned earlier, some people really struggle with the feeling that their life is ordinary and unimportant... James and Dr. Dyer explain why getting "un-stuck" is so important. Dr. Dyer explains "If you're feeling stuck, your stuckness is going to have a physical impact on you... You're gonna get sick if you stay stuck." More importantly, he shows you exactly how to get un-stuck, and live the life you were meant to lead. The tips and ideas Dr. Dyer discusses in the show are wide ranging. From how to side-step fights with your wife... to avoiding the most common regret of the dying... Dr. Dyer's advice is well worth listening to. We'll be the first to admit this was an intense show. But Dr. Dyer is one of the most inspirational speakers in the world... And when combined with James' fascinating, original take on the world, the result is riveting.

You've heard the stories about college dropouts who go on to become billionaires... like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Mark Zuckerburg... And you might even know that 20% of America's millionaires never stepped foot on a college campus. But how many guys have you heard of who read at a second grade level... yet go on to be millionaires? My guess is none... but you're about to meet one. His name is Lewis Howes, and he's this week's guest on the James Altucher Show, a radio show we recently helped to launch. Lewis Howes' story is nothing short of amazing... At age 10, he was 6'3". He described himself as a "gangly, skinny, ugly, acne kid, who couldn't read or write or do anything." In the eighth grade, he could only read at a second-grade level. He cheated on every test in high school because he says that's the only way he could pass. But Lewis' life changed dramatically after talking his way into college. He wanted to become a football player... and despite a series of major setbacks and injuries, he became a two-time All-American. Thing is... when it came time to leave college, the NFL didn't want him. He had no other skills. He was broke and depressed. By now, you might be wondering how listening to a former semi-pro football player can help you become more successful and wealthy. Turns out, a lot more than you'd think... Howes figured out an ingenious way to make a fortune. At one time, he was making an incredible $60,000 per hour. This week, you'll hear the amazing story of Lewis Howes, who now travels the globe teaching people exactly how they can achieve their dreams. Schools can't prep you for success anymore. Today's millionaires prove that if schooling and traditional employment does not work for you, then you must figure out how to connect with people on a different level. And Lewis teaches you exactly what you need to do to get there. He reveals the secret thing that people should never, ever do when they're trying to get ahead. I was shocked because it's usually the first thing people think they SHOULD do! He also reveals the question that he always asks during networking sessions. Lewis explains, "That simple question opened the door" to his future as a millionaire. Like James Altucher, Lewis Howes is a quirky, interesting guy, who's become a huge success by thinking outside the box. ------------What do YOU think of the show?

On this week's show, James and Aaron Brabham chat with Ylon Schwartz: poker champion, chess master, and gamer extraordinaire. He is without a doubt one of the most intriguing characters you're ever likely to encounter... College Dropout Who Has Never Had a Real Job Wins $8 Million in Cash at the Poker Table... If you watched the 2008 World Series of Poker, you may remember Ylon Schwartz and his trademark curly locks... The day before the championship, Ylon was drowning in debt and in trouble with the law back in his hometown of New York City. From rock bottom, he redirected years of frustrations about money and women, channeling it towards winning the game... ... and walked out of the Las Vegas Rio Casino with a cool $3.7 million in his pocket. In fact, Ylon has won an estimated $8 million in cash, just from playing poker. Not bad for a college dropout who has never held a job. Today, he's one of the most widely recognized and well-respected poker players in the world. ------------What do YOU think of the show?
