Cultish Creative Weekly (10/19/2024)

I started the week with M.O.P.—which is always, always, always a winning decision—and also stumbled across this Remy Ma interview where she talked about being a part of the remix. She’s got some wild details. If you’re a fan, you’ll want to check that out.

The Intentional Investor conversation with Brent Donnelly came out, and I think this tweet/clip pitched it best:

Here’s the full interview (and if nothing else, the ups and downs of life, the balance of intentional and unlucky breaks, the random Tragically Hip references, and the fact that this guy had his own cartoon on network television, The Intentional Investor is not just a finance interview podcast, you know?)

MORE STUFF YOU MIGHT HAVE MISSED:

Jack Forehand and I had a fun recap of tips from Jerry Parker (for the finance + trend followers out there).

I drew some lessons from famous record label Sub Pop’s slogan, “We’re not the best, but we’re pretty good.”

A corporate culture conversation, that doesn’t get discussed this way often enough is, how are we growing the whole pie vs. what are we doing to exclusively grow one slice of the pie? They are related, but so not the same thing.

Do great people flip flop? Warren Buffett does. And I wouldn’t call it flip flopping either. As Steve W. put it in a reply, “this is Bayesian probability!” and Shane R. reacted, “sticking with something you thought was right in the past just because that was your initial take is incredibly stupid.” If you want more, here’s some Bertrand Russell commandments this also reminded me of.

Did you read/watch my Something Wicked This Way Comes pitch yet? Find me if you’re a fan of the book and especially if you have thoughts. So great. Bonus h/t Kenny B.
