This has been my favorite podcast for the last few months. I’m a little bit of a movie nerd. These people are BIG movie nerds. I’m having so much fun eavesdropping. Most people will know Brett Goldstein from his role as Roy Kent on Ted Lasso. That’s certainly where I discovered him. But, there’s more … Continue reading Podcast Of The Week: Brett Goldstein’s Films To Be Buried With

Podcast Of The Week: Indre Viskontas’ Oliver Sacks Audiobook
Indre Viskontas, everyone’s favorite opera singing neurologist, did an audiobook series on the life and work of Oliver Sacks. It’s called Radiant Minds: The World of Oliver Sacks and it’s brilliant. Listen to each chapter like a podcast. It's presented this way (and it works really well). If you're unfamiliar with Sacks, think of a real … Continue reading Podcast Of The Week: Indre Viskontas’ Oliver Sacks Audiobook
Podcast Of The Week: Ice Cube On WTF
I’ve already pumped it quite a bit, but please, go check out Ice Cube on WTF with Marc Maron. This is one of my favorite podcasts in recent memory for the stories. Insane stories. Beautiful stories. It really was a good day after all stories. Like how he started rapping, how he got into movies, … Continue reading Podcast Of The Week: Ice Cube On WTF
Podcast Of The Week: Kweli And Murs On El-P (And A Personal Story)
Ok YouTube algorithm. I really - and I mean REALLY - didn’t want to watch a video with “white rappers in hip-hop” in the title. But then I noticed it was Talib Kweli and Murs talking, and that said “white rapper” in question was El-P. Murs calls El, “My Chuck D.” Kweli says El laid … Continue reading Podcast Of The Week: Kweli And Murs On El-P (And A Personal Story)
Podcast Of The Week: Ben Hunt On Rational Optimism
Ben Hunt is back on Howard Lindzon’s podcast and I couldn’t be more excited about seeing both of them speak at Epsilon Connect in just a few weeks - so I had to listen (and share it here). Of all the things in this conversation I love, Ben Hunt’s explanation of “finding your pack” really … Continue reading Podcast Of The Week: Ben Hunt On Rational Optimism
Podcast Of The Week: Dyson, Dyson, Dyson
We’re all going to be Dyson fanatics now. Or at least that's my goal for all of of my friends these days. David Senra read James Dysons out of print biography, Against the Odds: An Autobiography of James Dyson for the 4th time. His podcast talking through his notes is exceptional. In a post-tech gods world, … Continue reading Podcast Of The Week: Dyson, Dyson, Dyson
Podcast Of The Week: Jason Isbell’s Documentary w/ Bill Simmons
I was stoked when I found out the Duplass brothers were doing a Jason Isbell documentary with Bill Simmons as executive producer for HBO. If you have the HBO subscription, we watched Running With Our Eyes Closed once already, and I'm planning to watch it two or three times in the coming weeks. It's awesome. … Continue reading Podcast Of The Week: Jason Isbell’s Documentary w/ Bill Simmons
Podcast Of The Week: O’Shaughnessy’s ILTB -Greatest Hits
I’ve been listening to Patrick O’Shaughnessy’s Invest Like The Best Podcast since the beginning. Besides being in awe of the library he’s built, I’ve often thought I should go back. Well, he just created sort of a greatest-hits episode of clips from his favorites. Funny enough, they’re some of mine too. Check this out, featuring … Continue reading Podcast Of The Week: O’Shaughnessy’s ILTB -Greatest Hits
Podcast Of The Week: The Inevitability Of Ice Spice
I’m always going to get caught up in “how did this happen” and “where did this even come from” cultural questions. I’m not on TikTok, I’m not deep into drill (although, I’ve dabbled [adjusts monocle]), and I didn’t really enjoy much of the SoundCloud rapper phase. But I have been surprised by how much I’ve … Continue reading Podcast Of The Week: The Inevitability Of Ice Spice
Podcast Of The Week: Luxurious LVMH
Every now and then I check the Acquired podcast feed, get intimidated by the length of the episodes (should I just read a book/the book/several books on my own?), and too often lately I move on. HOWEVER. Every time I stop and listen to one I think, “I really should listen to more of these.” … Continue reading Podcast Of The Week: Luxurious LVMH
