  • How to Master Anything—at Any Age: Lessons from World Chess Champion Viswanathan Anand
    Jun 22 2025

    Notes from James:

    When I turned 40, I was depressed. I checked the top 50 chess players and saw only one person around my age: Viswanathan Anand. That moment gave me hope.

    Episode Description:

    I met one of my lifelong heroes—five-time World Chess Champion Viswanathan Anand—and got to sit down with him at the Norway Summit to unpack what it really takes to stay at the top… for four decades. We didn’t just talk about chess—we talked about life, legacy, improvement, and how to overcome self-doubt at any age.

    Vishy and I broke down how talent evolves, why confidence matters more than skill early on, and how he battled through plateaus, age, and even failure to remain among the world’s elite players—well into his 50s. This episode is a masterclass in longevity, performance, and reinvention.

    Whether you're into chess or not, Vishy's insights apply to anyone striving to master their craft, overcome obstacles, and stay in the game.


    What You’ll Learn:

    • The real reason most people plateau—and how to push through it
    • Why youth is powered by “inaccurate self-confidence” (and why that’s not a bad thing)
    • How to adapt when the game—or the world—changes faster than you can keep up
    • What to do when your best effort still leads to loss
    • How to retrain your mindset after failure or self-doubt
    • Why reinvention is a lifelong skill, not a one-time fix

  • Gary Vaynerchuk: The Brutal Blueprint for Real Freedom
    Jun 19 2025
    A Note from James:So I’ve been doing this podcast for a long time—over 1500 episodes—and I’ve spoken to everyone from billionaires to best-selling authors, athletes to entrepreneurs. But there are a handful of episodes that still ring in my ears years later. One of them was Episode 156 with Gary Vaynerchuk.I was just re-listening to it while pulling together notes for a potential book, and I realized this conversation is timeless. It’s not about hype. It’s about freedom. Gary’s blueprint—learn, build, create community, stay self-aware—is the real deal. No shortcuts. No tricks. Just pure, actionable wisdom. Whether you’re 23 or 53, if you're serious about building the life you want, this one’s worth a listen.Send it to your kids. Your friends. Your future self.Thanks again for listening.Episode Description:In this re-release of one of the most downloaded episodes of The James Altucher Show, James sits down with Gary Vaynerchuk just before the release of his book #AskGaryVee. What unfolds is a candid, highly tactical conversation about business, content creation, self-awareness, and the true meaning of entrepreneurship.Gary breaks down his framework for success—from selling wine via YouTube in the early 2000s to launching VaynerMedia and investing in Facebook, Twitter, and Tumblr. He also explains why patience, practicality, and micro-failure are essential ingredients for long-term freedom.This isn’t motivational fluff. It’s the strategy, mindset, and playbook of someone who’s been in the trenches—and is still hungry.What You’ll Learn:Why "entrepreneurship" is really just a path to freedom—not fast cashHow Gary made (and learned from) multiple startup failures in 2009Why content marketing is about sincerity, not SEO hacksHow to test new business ideas through arbitrage—like flipping Jets gear on AmazonA tactical breakdown of self-awareness (and how to get it from people you trust)Timestamped Chapters:[00:00] Leisure vs. Freedom: What You’re Really Trading[01:00] Recommending Competitors as a Sales Tactic[03:00] Early YouTube, Wine Library, and ROI Before Social Was “Social”[06:00] Entrepreneurship vs. Lifestyle Marketing[08:00] Ego, Confidence, and What Scares Gary Vee[10:00] The Trainwreck Year: 2009 and Four Failed Startups[12:00] Experiments, Micro-Failures, and Million-Dollar Misses[14:00] Offense vs. Defense in Business[15:00] Building Trust Through Sincerity in Content[18:00] Self-Awareness: Gary’s Most Important Entrepreneurial Trait[22:00] The Real Numbers: What It Means to Be in the 1%[25:00] Leisure Costs More Than You Think[29:00] Why Gary Loves Losing and Chasing More Than Winning[34:00] The Self-Awareness Dinner Party Hack[38:00] Redefining Success: From $213K to $87K and Happy[42:00] Clouds and Dirt: Finding Your North Star and Executing in the Weeds[43:00] The Arbitrage Blueprint: eBay to Amazon[47:00] Community Building Through Twitter and Micro-Engagement[49:00] Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook (And What People Get Wrong About It)[52:00] Avoiding Negative Energy in Business and Relationships[54:00] Tactical Social Media Growth: Commenting, Listening, Engaging[56:00] Scaling Beyond Arbitrage: Events, Podcasts, ProductsAdditional Resources:#AskGaryVee: One Entrepreneur's Take on Leadership, Social Media, and Self-Awareness (Amazon)Gary Vaynerchuk’s TwitterWine Library TV ArchivesVaynerMediaDailyVee on YouTubeOur Sponsors:Pack up and go even further with the Defender 110.
