  • ALGEBRA OF WEALTH: Scott Galloway’s Formula for Financial Success

    ALGEBRA OF WEALTH: Scott Galloway’s Formula for Financial Success
    May 2 2024
    Scott Galloway is a podcaster, bestselling author, and professor of marketing at NYU. He's irreverent, cocky, brutally honest, and surprisingly humble. He's also wildly successful — and he doesn't care who knows it. In fact, he thinks more rich people should talk about their success. That's why he wrote his new book, "The Algebra of Wealth." "It's almost like a letter to myself when I was younger," he tells Rufus in today's episode, which was recorded live in New York City, "the mistakes I made, some of the things I did right, some of the things I did wrong." Tune in to learn how to build your savings muscle, why you should avoid stock picking, Scott's favorite ETF, whether it's better to be an entrepreneur or a company man, and more.

  • WHY WE REMEMBER: The New Science of Improving Your Memory

    WHY WE REMEMBER: The New Science of Improving Your Memory
    Apr 25 2024
    "The only things that are important in life," declared the French filmmaker Jean Renoir, "are the things you remember." But what do we remember and why? That's the subject of a new book, "Why We Remember: Unlocking Memory's Power to Hold on to What Matters," by pioneering neuroscientist Charan Ranganath. He joins us today to explain why you still know the lyrics to the song you loved in eighth grade but can't remember the name of your kid's eighth-grade teacher, how memory shapes your identity, and what you can do right now to improve your recall. THE NEXT BIG IDEA CLUB We all know that reading is the best investment we can make in ourselves, but figuring out what to read — well, that’s another matter. Which is why we started the Next Big Idea Club. We get the best new books (as chosen by our friends Malcolm Gladwell, Adam Grant, Susan Cain, and Daniel Pink) into the hands of curious people.

  • SLOW PRODUCTIVITY: Can We Get More Done by Doing Less?

    SLOW PRODUCTIVITY: Can We Get More Done by Doing Less?
    Apr 18 2024
    What if doing less is the secret to achieving more? That's the counterintuitive argument at the heart of productivity guru Cal Newport's new book, "Slow Productivity: The Lost Art of Accomplishment Without Burnout." Cal says that if we can learn to do fewer things, work at a natural pace, and obsess over quality, we can free ourselves from the clutches of pointless busyness and find more meaningful ways to work ... and live. *Live Event Alert* We are hosting a live taping of this show in New York City on Monday, April 22. Rufus will be sitting down with Scott Galloway — NYU business professor, podcast provocateur, and author of "The Algebra of Wealth" — to discuss ways you can optimize your life for wealth and success.

DRUGS episode: Bashing the Mentally ill

I really tried to keep a open mind for the "Drugs" episode that I listened to on another platform first. People with mental illnesses are "Non adults"? Are you kidding me? How in this age, can both the host and the interviewee be so ridiculously tone deaf and repeatedly refer to those who might suffer from genetically inherited mental illness issues "non adults" who chose not to "grow up". What great "science" they chose to spew on their platform. I'll never listen to another one of these again and hope that they choose to do better journalism in the future that more responsibly talks about a significant portion of the population that has already suffered enough bias.
