The James Altucher Show

I bet you always wanted to know how to make a few billion dollars.Well, I wanted to know too, so I read the book "How to Make a Few Billion Dollars" by Brad Jacobs.But, I had questions...Luckily for us, Brad agreed to come on the show! Brad has founded seven companies?all billion-dollar or multi-billion-dollar corporations?completed approximately 500 M&A transactions, and raised $30 billion of debt and equity capital through private and public offerings, including three IPOs. He began his career at age 23 when he founded Amerex Oil Associates, followed by Hamilton Resources, both privately held. He subsequently created five publicly traded companies?United Waste Systems, United Rentals, XPO, and XPO's two spin-offs, GXO Logistics and RXO.I asked my questions, some related to making billions of dollars, but also stuff that had completely nothing to do with it. Although...maybe it *does* have something to do with making billions of dollars after all...-----------What do YOU think of the show?

James invites Merrick Furst, an influential figure in his academic past and a beacon in the world of innovation, to discuss the intricacies of "authentic demand" as outlined in Furst's latest book, "The Heart of Innovation: A Field Guide for Navigating to Authentic Demand." Together, they venture into the exploration of how one can identify and validate the true potential behind an idea.Throughout the episode, the duo examines the nature of "authentic demand" - the genuine need or desire for a product or service in the market. They pose and address pivotal questions: Can you accurately determine whether there's a real market need for your idea? What are the elements that people consider non-negotiable in their lives, and how do these essentials drive innovation?Drawing from his extensive experience in launching companies and nurturing ideas to fruition, Furst - along with insights from coauthors Matt Chanoff, Daniel Sabbah, and Mark Wegman - shares his approach to evaluating ideas not just for their novelty, but for their ability to meet a deep-rooted demand.Listeners will gain an understanding of the crucial aspects that turn an idea into a product or service that people cannot envision living without. The conversation extends beyond the theoretical into practical, actionable strategies that entrepreneurs and creatives can implement to ensure their innovations align with the indispensable needs of their target audience.Buy The Heart of Innovation: A Field Guide for Navigating to Authentic Demand!-----------What do YOU think of the show?

Nick Shaw, an executive coach who has faced the unimaginable sorrow of losing a child, joins James to discuss his profound journey and the insights he shares in his book My Teacher, My Son: Lessons on Life, Loss, and Love. This conversation is not just about coping with grief but about the transformative lessons that can emerge from it. Shaw's reflections offer a poignant look at how personal loss can inform and deepen one's approach to life and work.Shaw's narrative begins with a day that turned from idyllic to tragic, resulting in the loss of his nine-year-old son, William. In the throes of mourning, Shaw experienced a moment of revelation: his son had been his teacher all along, imparting wisdom that would carry him forward. "My Teacher, My Son" is more than Shaw's memoir-it's a guidebook for anyone grappling with the complexities of being present, letting go, and seeking connection in the wake of loss.Throughout the episode, we explore the themes of resilience, the search for meaning, and the ways in which tragedy can illuminate our most significant life lessons.Shaw's experiences as a father and coach converge, providing unique insights into embracing life's unpredictability with grace and fortitude. His story, though rooted in personal pain, stands as a testament to the strength found in vulnerability and the potential for growth in the face of life's greatest challenges.Amazon: My Teacher, My Son: Lessons on Life, Loss, and LoveNick's company: Mirrorbox Leadership Lab -----------What do YOU think of the show?

Best-selling author and host Shawn Stevenson, once a victim of a dire diagnosis of degenerative spine disease in his early twenties, faced a battle not just for mobility, but for his very life. The hidden culprit? The ultra-processed foods silently wreaking havoc on countless Americans. Shawn fervently believes that these foods are the stealthy assassins of our modern age. Yet, amidst this bleak landscape, there emerged a beacon of hope: a diet shift that Shawn credits with literally saving his life. Discussing his newest book, the "Eat Smarter Family Cookbook," Stevenson reveals how ditching these deadly foods and embracing whole, nutritious alternatives not only reversed his seemingly irreversible condition but also restored vitality to his body and soul. If you ever doubted the lethal power of processed foods or questioned the life-giving force of a truly wholesome diet, this episode will leave you both shaken and inspired. Join us for a narrative that's as alarming as it is redemptive, and discover the dietary truths Shawn believes we all need to embrace before it's too late.-----------What do YOU think of the show?

?The Age of Prediction is such a fascinating book! After reading it, I really do think the job people should be preparing for is "data analyst" or "predictor", because that's going to be used in every single industry, more than prompt engineers or AI coders - because AI is going to write its own code. Being able to understand what data to look at and why and how to make use of it, whether it's the medical industry or sports or stocks or insurance or art, this is going to be such a valuable skill to have, and it's a just beginning field. The creativity there is going to be amazing.The Age of Prediction: Algorithms, AI, and the Shifting Shadows of Risk by Christopher Mason and Igor Tulchinsky is like a guidebook to what's happened, what's going to be happening, and all the different ways people use will prediction technology.Igor has a $7 billion hedge fund, which analyzes millions of pieces of data around the world to predict stocks, whether something will happen tomorrow, or an hour from now, or 10 seconds from now.Christopher Mason is geneticist and computational biologist who has been a Principal Investigator and Co-investigator of many NASA missions and projects. I wanted to know: What is the state of this industry? How much can we really predict? How can we get better at it? What are the limitations? How close are we to manipulating DNA for disease gene removal? Can single-gene editing be done within a living human? We talk about all of that, and then just have a fun time while I pitched different ideas. Enjoy our interview with Igor and Chris, authors of The Age of Prediction.-----------What do YOU think of the show?

Join James in conversation with Bill O'Reilly, exploring the dark and tumultuous period of the Salem Witch Trials as depicted in O'Reilly's newest addition to the "Killing" series, "Killing The Witches." The dialogue plunges into the chaotic world of Salem, where the accusations of young girls led to a horrific chain of events - a somber chapter of American history that saw 20 individuals executed and hundreds jailed based on dubious testimonies.The narrative takes an intriguing twist as a young Benjamin Franklin steps onto the scene. Intrigued by the unfolding hysteria, Franklin's interaction with the notorious witch hunter, Cotton Mather, leads him to a profound realization about the destructive force of unchecked religious fervor. This episode illuminates how the grim events of Salem resonated through the psyche of one of America's founding fathers, potentially influencing the ethos of a budding nation.As James and Bill dissect the intricate details, they venture beyond the surface-level horrors of the witch hunts, diving into the nuanced, unintended consequences that rippled through society and the impressions it left on the minds of key historical figures. Later, the conversation shifts to the present-day news media and political dynamic, which O'Reilly views as a "cancel culture witch hunt" organized as a defense strategy by the progressive far-left.-----------What do YOU think of the show?

Round two with A.J. Jacobs and it's a trip down the democracy lane, but with a twist! A.J. throws a quirky curveball - randomocracy. It's democracy's distant cousin, the one that shows up uninvited but makes the party unforgettable. We dissect it, play around with it, and wonder, could this be a real alternative? A.J., with his Constitution-living lens, breaks down randomocracy's nuts and bolts, and I gotta say, it's tickling the brain. It's weird, it's fascinating, and it's a hearty meal for thought. We're not just thinking outside the box; we're kind of tearing the box apart. And hey, I'm all ears and now I'm handing the mic to you. What do you think about stepping into a randomocracy? Tweet me @JAltucher, share the episode, and let's stir the pot.------------What do YOU think of the show?

3 years ago when Suzanne Somers came on the podcast to discuss her book A New Way to Age, I was blown away by her depth of knowledge and personal results in the field. Suzanne passed away this week, 23 years after her cancer diagnosis. Today, we're re-airing her episode about living a vibrant life._____________Suzanne Somers has sex twice a day.She's 73."I'm horniest on the 12th day of the month," she said. "When there's a full moon.""I'll never look at a full moon the same ever again," I said.She laughed. And told me why she's feeling younger... even though she's getting older. Which she writes about in her new bestselling book, "A New Way to Age: The Most Cutting-Edge Advances in Antiaging."Some might say "an actress" isn't qualified to write a scientific book about aging.But that's stupid. One: she's human. With human problems that lead her to see real doctors. The best doctors. With cutting-edge formulas to beat aging.She told me, "I've beat cancer three times," she said. And now she plans to live into her hundreds.But with a caveat..."If I'm going to be alive, then I want to be alive. What's alive? I want to have a sex drive. I want to have nice shiny hair. I don't want to have unexplained weight gain. I don't want to have insomnia. I don't want to have night sweats. I don't want to have hot flashes. I don't want to be forgetful."That's what this book and this podcast is about. She breaks down:- how to prevent memory loss- how to keep your sex drive even as you age- how to have a good quality of life into your hundreds- how to access the latest age-defying technologyAnd we invited our friend Dr. Dean Mitchell to help back up her research.And give us the science we need to be just as horny.Full moon.

When you think of someone in the inner circle of billionaires and political giants, you don't usually imagine them whistling Duke Ellington tunes in corporate meeting rooms. Chris Ullman defies that stereotype; a virtuoso whistler, he has performed in venues as diverse as the Oval Office and the top of the Washington Monument. Join James Altucher in part one of this extraordinary interview as they delve into Chris's passion for whistling, which he explored in his book "Find Your Whistle."From a young age of 13, Chris committed himself to whistling. He credits his father for the initial inspiration, but becoming a champion took hard work and unique sacrifices-like abstaining from kissing 24 hours before a performance. Chris and James discuss the perception of whistling as a "novelty," contrasting it with other forms of art and sports. Yet, Chris believes that whistling is the great equalizer; it's a universal joy that resonates with everyone from grandparents to billionaire bosses. In fact, this underestimated art has brought Chris "more joy than he could have ever imagined."This conversation sets the stage for part two, where James and Chris will discuss Chris's latest book, "Four Billionaires and a Parking Attendant." But for now, enjoy this deep dive into an art form that's both ancient and modern, simple and intricate, and understand how Chris Ullman has built a life around spreading joy and inspiring others to find their own "whistle."-----------What do YOU think of the show?

Is it important to leave a legacy? Should your life's mission revolve around creating something that outlasts you? Episode #6 of "Ask Altucher" grapples with these questions as Jay and James offer contrasting perspectives. Jay strongly believes that leaving a legacy should be a driving force in life. James counters with a cautionary note, arguing that the pursuit of a legacy beyond your immediate family can lead to discontentment, as you'll never experience the benefits after you pass away.The conversation takes an even deeper turn when James raises the concern about one legacy he would NOT want to leave: death by suicide and the collateral emotional damage inflicted upon family and friends. This poignant moment adds another layer to an already complex debate, making listeners ponder the legacies they are consciously or unconsciously leaving behind.But the duo doesn't stop there. Jay ups the ante by introducing two philosophical dilemmas that challenge conventional thinking: "Would you choose immediate suicide to save the planet?" and "Given the choice only for immediate death or immortality, which would you pick?" These thought-provoking questions elevate the episode from a simple discussion on legacy to a broader contemplation of life, death, and the ethical considerations in between.Whether you've contemplated your own legacy or never given it a second thought, this episode offers a compelling dive into what it means to leave something behind, the cost of doing so, and the moral complexities that come with it. A must-listen for anyone pondering the bigger questions of life.------------What do YOU think of the show?

Chris Tucker is a former air traffic controller who was working in New York City on 9/11. Tucker spent the whole day trying to keep the passengers of two hijacked planes safe. This episode is his story. It's heroic, and it saved lives. But as Chris says, "I was just doing my job."Episode Notes:I welcome Chris Tucker on the show. The reason I had him on is because I heard him speak at an event. And it was riveting. Chris spoke about his personal experience trying to keep the passengers of two hijacked planes safe - [2:55]I tell Chris my experience that morning. I was a hedge fund manager. It was one of the most beautiful days in New York City. I saw the plane. And my business partner thought it was the president. The plane flew over us. Everyone ducked. It was so loud. And so fast. And we watched the plane go right into the building - [4:06]Chris says why he became an air traffic controller - [6:56]Why New York City is too stressful to live in - [8:02]How Chris' solo sailboat trip gave him clarity. And helped him see what he wanted to do with his life. He said, "The nice thing about being in the middle of the ocean with no one else around you is that you can find some clarity that for some bizarre reason is not attainable when you're in the normal world." - [8:57]I ask "How long does it take to get a pilot's license?" He breaks down the process. - [9:54]"Flying is, in general, very safe, but that having been said, airplanes can find ways to kill you that you can't even dream of." - [12:18]Chris' scariest moment aboard a plane. He says it was very similar to what happened to JFK Jr. - [12:32]How Chris transitioned from pilot to air traffic controller - [16:37]I ask Chris, "How close can two jets get before they start to affect each other?" - [19:33]Chris gives an example of how two aircraft accidentally impacted each other. And caused turbulence. "That aircraft had to make an emergency landing. But that's extremely rare," he said. [22:13]Chris Tucker's training: he does 3 months and is in the top 40%. He moves to New York and starts apprenticing. It took 3 and a half years to become fully certified. "And the very first day was terrifying." - [22:45]Chris gives some background information. This helps set the setting for September 11. So we can understand what makes being an air traffic controller so stressful - [23:40]How private jets and small planes impact regular planes - [26:33]Why there's a 0% chance I'll get a pilot's license... Chris tells a story about a time he almost crashed directly into another plane - [29:20]In 1981, Ronald Reagan fired 11,345 air traffic controllers who had a union strike. I ask Chris, "Why did he think he could do that? And why did we survive that?" - [32:06]Chris Tucker starts to tell us about his day on September 11, 2001 - [33:58]Chris was working departures out of JFK airport. And he explains the structure he has to follow to make sure arrivals and departures don't conflict with each other - [34:45]"I had a lot of work to do," Chris says as he explains the number of planes he has to vector before ever learning about the hijacked planes - [37:20]The moment Chris finds out there's a hijacked plane... - [39:13]Everyone was experiencing denial. Chris explains why they didn't believe there was a real hijack at first... and how that changed - [40:00]The controllers in Boston could hear the hijackers making announcements to the passengers - [41:12]Things change... the hijackers turn off their transponder. "Now we can't see the altitude the aircraft is broadcasting." - [43:01]I ask if the military could have intervened in any way. - [45:03]"One of the flight attendants on board called American Airlines and told them that the aircraft had been hijacked and that they had murdered the pilots." - [46:23]Chris says what they thought the hijackers were going to do... and why they didn't think a crash was possible...

Step into the world of the 1987-88 NBA season with author Rich Cohen as he discusses his new book, "When the Game Was War: The NBA's Greatest Season," with James. In this seminal season, Hall of Famers spanned the entire history of the league, from Kareem Abdul Jabbar, who played with players that existed before the NBA, to young talents like Reggie Miller and Scotty Pippen. It was also the time when Cohen fell in love with pro basketball, ignited by game six of the 1988 NBA Finals. The Detroit Pistons were on the brink of closing out the Lakers and making history, but Isaiah Thomas had other plans. Despite rolling his ankle, he delivered a performance for the ages, scoring an incredible 25 points in the third quarter alone-a playoff record that still stands.The core of the book narrows down to four games that encapsulated the era's four dynasties-Magic Johnson's Los Angeles Lakers, Larry Bird's Boston Celtics, Isiah Thomas' Detroit Pistons, and Michael Jordan's Chicago Bulls. These teams went to "war" with each other, their skirmishes defining the era. By the time you get to the fourth game in the book, Cohen promises you'll know every player on the floor. This episode offers a deep dive into the emotional gravity of the season that connected fans like never before.Whether you're an ardent NBA follower or a casual fan, this episode with Rich Cohen is a must-listen. It will evoke nostalgia, inspire you with stories of perseverance and skill, and offer a masterclass on the art of storytelling and sports history.------------What do YOU think of the show?

Welcome back to "Hooked on the First Line," where James and master storyteller Cal Fussman dig deep into what makes the opening lines of novels so captivating. Today's focal point is the notoriously controversial but beautifully penned 'Lolita' by Vladimir Nabokov. "Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Lo-lee-ta: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. Lo. Lee. Ta." These opening lines are as alluring as they are unsettling, a fitting introduction to Nabokov's tale.The episode doesn't stop at 'Lolita'; it branches out into the first lines of Nabokov's 'Ada' and 'Laughter in the Dark,' showing that the author's skill in gripping the reader is not a one-off but a recurring theme in his work. James and Cal talk about the stylistic elements, the melody in the words, and the ethical conundrums posed right from the first sentence. How do these lines affect our perception of the characters and the unfolding story? And how does Nabokov manage to lure us into complex emotional landscapes with just a few words? Discover the craftsmanship behind some of literature's most iconic opening lines.------------What do YOU think of the show?

Frank Shamrock calls himself "The First Super Athlete" in the sport of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA). Some might say that Frank lacks humility, but he was the first UFC Light Heavyweight Champion and retired undefeated from the organization. He revolutionized MMA and went deeper than anyone else, studying the body and optimizing his performance. While others focused on technical fighting, Frank dug into the biomechanics and became a force to be reckoned with.But get this, Frank didn't start off as a fighter. Actually, he found MMA while he was in jail at the tender age of 11. Frank had left his abusive home and turned to crime as a way to protect himself and get out of his situation. Sad, but true.Fast forward a bit, and Frank is in prison at 17 for 3 and a half years. That's when he had his big "aha" moment.

He learned that changing his mindset and taking action was the first step to rebuilding his life. Now, Frank is an inspiration to all of us.A former criminal who became a champion, Frank Shamrock's journey and lessons can inspire anyone, whether they're fighters or not. It's all about having the right mindset and taking action to overcome any obstacle.Links and Resources:Follow Frank on TwitterCheck out Frank's WebsiteAlso Mentioned:"Bound by Blood" DocumentaryEgo is the Enemy by Ryan Holiday------------What do YOU think of the show?

Before he could legally drink, Ian Bick was already in the thick of the nightclub scene, not as a patron, but as the owner of Tuxedo Junction in Connecticut. Drawing from the excitement of youthful partying, Bick's events were anything but your typical high school get-togethers. But when the glitz started to fade, and the revenue wasn't flowing as he'd imagined, desperation knocked on his door. Instead of seeking advice or potentially shutting down, Bick veered down a dangerous path, one that entangled him in a web of deceit, old debts, and new investors. On this episode of the James Altucher Show, hear from Ian Bick himself - how youthful ambition can quickly take a wrong turn, and how a teenager found himself running a $500,000 Ponzi Scheme. From the highs of Tuxedo Junction to the lows of a prison cell, Bick's tale is a cautionary one, now featured on HBO Max's "Generation Hustle."Listen to Ian's Podcast: Locked In with Ian Bick | Podcast on SpotifyVisit Ian's Website: Ian Bick------------What do YOU think of the show?
