Show notes

Eddie Ibanez is the biggest cyber security hacker I know. He used to be contracted by the US government to find patters that could help identify various threats (terrorist threats, security threats, etc.) He tried to tell me what he could without going past the line. (He holds a lot of secrets). He'll tell you how you're being hacked, how to protect yourself, what threats are out there for individuals and countries, and more. I write about all my podcasts!

438 - Brad Meltzer: Our County’s Secrets (Untold Stories From the CIA & Secret Service) Feb 26, 2019

Show notes

Brad Meltzer gets to call up the CIA and the secret service whenever he needs a new story. He's written 11 best selling novels. They're all history thriller novels. And now he's written his first non-fiction book about the plot to kill George Washington. Which leads to the invention of the CIA, spies, and other conspiracies. Brad's fascination with history also leads to self-history. He did a TED talk on "How To Write Your Own Obituary." Which made me think, what history will I leave behind?

437 - John Maxwell: THE Master of Personal Growth Feb 21, 2019

Show notes

John Maxwell changed my life in 2001. I read his book "Failing Forward" and then read all his books ever since. He's the #1 go-to guy for leadership and personal growth. And he's sold over 30 million copies of his books worldwide. His newest book is "Leader Shift: The 11 Essential Changes Every Leader Must Embrace." I asked him how he found his passion so early in life, what leaders need to do differently, how to find a mentor, make friends in your industry and more. I write about all my podcasts!

436 - Todd Herman: When to Use Your Alter Ego Feb 19, 2019

Show notes

Todd Herman coaches CEOs, Olympic athletes, entrepreneurs (etc.) on how to reach their peak performance using 1 key trick... an alter ego. He says, "We're all super multi-layered people." But we block ourselves. We constantly use old narratives that we've outgrown or hold us back. And we force ourselves to be somebody we don't want to be anymore. But if you use an alter ego, you can get out of your head. And perform the way you want to (at work, in negotiations, on the field, while networking, in relationships, anywhere.) He'll tell you success stories and how to get started. I write about all my podcasts! Check out the full post and learn what I learned at jamesaltucher.com/podcast. Thanks so much for listening!

435 - Roger McNamee: Every Tech Billionaire's Mentor Feb 14, 2019

Show notes

Roger McNamee was Steve Jobs' mentor. And Bill Gates. And Mark Zuckerberg. Why is Roger so valuable to these people? What does he know that we don't? What did he have to offer the world's future billionaire visionaries? I also wanted to hear stories. What is Steve Jobs like? And Mark Zuckerberg? "When I met Mark he was different from everybody. But in a kind of cool, interesting way. I mean a little creepy too. But you have to keep in mind, tech entrepreneurs aren't like you and me." They're obsessed. And focussed. And sometimes equally underdeveloped as they are overdeveloped. One other thing about this interview: it'll change the way you think about technology. I write about all my podcasts!

434 - Stephen Merchant: How to Live Through Your Life’s Awkward Moments… Build Your Ridiculous Muscle Feb 12, 2019

Show notes

Stephen Merchant is 2x GoldenGlobe-winning actor, writer and director. I'm a fan of everything he's worked on (The Office, Office Space, Extras, Hello Ladies, etc.). And now he has a brand new movie coming out that I highly recommend called "Fighting With Family." The Rock is in it. Stephen wrote and directed it. It's based off of a real-life family who raised their kids to be professional wrestlers. And it tackles all of these real-life human experiences like the fear of not making it, the pressure to succeed, setting difficult expectations for ourselves and so on. This episode is both funny and totally relatable. Just like Stephen's upcoming movie (coming out Feb. 14) I write about all my podcasts!

433 - 6 MORE of The Best One Minute Life Hacks Feb 07, 2019

Show notes

People don't talk about this enough... the life hacks that answer the bigger questions: "How can I make time for things I really love and enjoy?" "How do I get the most out of a day, a week, a year, ten years?" There are a lot of life hacks out there. But I wanted to do something different. I wanted to talk about the little tweaks I do personally to optimize my life and make it a little better bit by bit. Just 1% improvement a day compounds. And adds up to 3780% a year. So here are 6 more things you can try (that all add up) to improve your life. ? I write about all my podcasts! Check out the full post and learn what I learned at jamesaltucher.com/podcast.

431 - Gary Gulman: "I'm Not Suffering from Depression Anymore" Jan 31, 2019

Show notes

The first time Gary Gulman came on my podcast, he was totally depressed. He had difficulty speaking. He was hunched over. I almost felt bad for inviting him. But he was really candid. And I wanted to be his friend. He's likable and his comedy always makes me laugh. This is his third time on the show. And he's not suffering from depression anymore. He told me about the medical changes he's made, the support of his loved one, and (best of all) finding his way back to feeling normal. "I wasn't myself for so long," he said. "And now to be myself is so exhilarating." But I realize a lot of people, even people without depression, don't have the safe and secure feeling of being themselves on a daily basis. So this episode can help you if you feel stuck in some version of yourself that wants to grow and be different and be healthy again. I write about all my podcasts!

430 - The Best 1 Minute Life Hacks to Save Time & Enjoy More of Life Jan 29, 2019

Show notes

One time I was on a plane with an CIA officer. He told me a lot of stories. One thing he said stood out. It was a life hack that I adopted right away. And I've been doing it for years ever since. I try to collect one takeaway from every person I interview. But sometimes I get takeaways from my friends and even myself. And now they're all recorded in this podcast. Oh and one more thing.
