Unpacking The NYC Marathon With Cedric King: A Story of Service & Sacrifice Nov 05, 2026

Show notes

Cedric King is a former Army Master Sergeant, Purple Heart recipient, and double amputee who has run more than 30 marathons on running blades.

We recorded the day after the NYC Marathon, where I served as his run support and found a way to get out of my own self-obsession and make it about somebody else. We discuss the IED blast in Afghanistan that took his legs, his struggle with painkillers, his father, and why being of service is the answer.

And I try to explain why running beside him was an absolute, unforgettable peak experience.

Cedric’s positive energy is infectious. This whole marathon journey left me hopeful for humanity. Enjoy!

Jim Morrison Skied Everest’s North Face In The Wake Of Two Tragedies: On Grief, Risk & Moving Forward After Unimaginable Loss Nov 02, 2026

Show notes

Jim Morrison is a ski mountaineer and the subject of “Everest: The Other Side,” the new film from Jimmy Chin and Chai Vasarhelyi.

A year ago, he accomplished an impossible first: skiing Everest’s direct North Face from the summit. Jim has also endured unimaginable loss – his wife and two young children in a 2011 plane crash, then his partner, Hilaree Nelson, in a 2022 avalanche on Manaslu.

We discuss grief, fear, the legacies of the people he’s lost, and why loss isn’t about living without the people you love, but bringing them with you.

Grateful to Jim for sharing from the heart. Go hug your people. Enjoy!

First Light: Cole Brauer's Life Lessons From Racing Her Sailboat Around The World Oct 29, 2026

Show notes

Cole Brauer is the first American woman to race solo, nonstop around the world, and the author of First Light: Sailing Solo but Not Alone.

We discuss the Dragon Time mindset, breaking into the walled garden of alpha males, 130 days alone at sea, choosing her boat over the win at Cape Horn, and why coming home was harder than the ocean.

Along the way, she teaches me what a ring around the sun means.

Cole is a badass wise beyond her years. And our conversation is cinematic. Enjoy!

Tom Hopper On Getting Sober, Training For The Screen & Finding The Man Behind The Muscle Oct 19, 2026

Show notes

Tom Hopper is an actor known for his roles in The Umbrella Academy, Black Sails, and The Terminal List.

This conversation explores how Tom manages to meld an artistic sensibility with an athlete’s discipline. We discuss his path from drama school to action star, what Navy SEALs taught him, raising his non-verbal autistic son Freddie, a decade alcohol-free, and whether he’s the next James Bond.

Earlier in the day, we filmed an Open Container where Tom literally lapped me in the stupidest circuit of all time. I was so humbled.

Tom is a mountain of a man and a sensitive artist. He’s an absolute delight. Enjoy!

The Social Reckoning: Frances Haugen On What Facebook Knew & Why She Came Forward Oct 15, 2026

Show notes

Frances Haugen is the Facebook whistleblower whose story inspired Aaron Sorkin’s new film The Social Reckoning.

This compilation revisits my 2023 conversation with Frances, then turns to Jonathan Haidt, Max Fisher, and former Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy.

We discuss the falseness of the free speech vs. safety binary, the run-up to January 6, what smartphones are doing to kids, and how to reclaim our boredom.

Years later, these ills have only grown worse, which is why these conversations still matter. Enjoy!

Joe Manganiello On Getting Sober, The Mystery Illness That Almost Killed Him & The Trauma We Inherit Oct 12, 2026

Show notes

Joe Manganiello is an actor (True Blood, Magic Mike, One Piece) and author of Bloodlines.

This conversation explores his odyssey of pain and suffering, self-discovery, and ultimately spiritual transformation – from a near-fatal illness to a family history that upended what he thought he knew.

Learning that this podcast helped him make sense of his healing was a reminder of why I do this.

Joe's journey is unreal. And he tells it beautifully. Enjoy!

Journalist Anand Giridharadas On The Lost Art Of Empathy, Compassion, & Understanding Each Other Oct 05, 2026

Show notes

Anand Giridharadas is a New York Times bestselling author whose new book is Man in the Mirror.

This conversation explores the death of Jordan Neely on a New York subway, the story at the center of the book. We discuss Anand's return from punditry to reporting, how power actually operates, what the Epstein emails reveal about elite relationships, the Aspen consensus, who gets to belong in America and the case for radical humanization.

Along the way, I share how the program of recovery taught me to seek understanding and lead with curiosity.

Anand's book is an act of service. I hope this conversation is, too. Enjoy!

Black-ish Creator Kenya Barris On Turning Down A $100 Million Netflix Deal, The Cost of Success & Curiosity As A Superpower With Malcolm Gladwell Oct 01, 2026

Show notes

Malcolm Gladwell is a journalist and bestselling author. Kenya Barris is a writer, producer, and the creator of Black-ish. Together they host the Audible Original podcast The Unusual Suspects.

This conversation explores opposite approaches to storytelling. Kenya mines his own life, while Malcolm leaves his out entirely.

We discuss Kenya's Inglewood upbringing, finding your voice, Richard Pryor walking off a Vegas stage, the $100 million Netflix deal Kenya walked away from, the shifting tectonic plates of media, and more.

These two are a treat together. Enjoy!

Show notes

Colin Kaepernick is a Super Bowl quarterback, civil rights activist, and author of the new memoir "The Perilous Fight."

Ten years after taking a knee, Colin opens up about the parts of the story we didn't see, from the death threats to the fourth-grade letter where he wrote down his future. And yes, he still trains most mornings.

Colin is undeniable. This conversation was an honor. Enjoy!
