If you turn on the news or any social media apps, you’re likely to be met with a myriad of fantastic headlines, the latest political scandal, racial tensions, violence, or any number of issues these outlets use to get our attention. Of course, most of this is exaggerated to get us worked up without providing any real solutions to some of the issues that actually exist.

My guest today, Suresh Madhaven, and I begin to break down some of these issues and work towards unpacking and discussing solutions rather than focus on the outrage that is used against us. We talk about the importance of men’s rites of passages, breaking down the concept of systemic racism, crying wolf on the real issues, movements against masculinity, and the role of men in a fatherless society.

SHOW HIGHLIGHTS

• A boy’s coming-of-age
• Defining systemic racism
• The term “white privilege”
• The real victims of racism
• The greatest lie being told
• The lack of police training
• Steps to avoid the police
• Framework to live your life

We’ve all heard people say, “You’ve got to pay your dues” or the concept of the 10,000-hour rule. But what if it didn’t have to be that way? What if you could skip the line, so to speak, and accelerate the results of your life while everyone else stands in line simply waiting for their turn.

That’s what my guest today, the one and only James Altucher, and I discuss – how to use the concept of 10,000 experiments, not 10,000 hours. We talk about why “stay in your lane” is bad advice, how to become the top 1% in your field much more efficiently, how to become an idea-generating machine, harnessing the power of “idea sex,” and how to creatively add value to others so you can win faster.

SHOW HIGHLIGHTS

• The importance of good storytelling
• Why you should NOT stay in your lane
• Caring what the right people think
• The Concept of 10,000 hours
• The upside of experimenting 
• Dividing your skills into micro-skills
• How to generate new ideas
• Finding and creating new opportunities
• How to never run out of ideas

Most of you are probably aware of Matthew McConaughey and his new book, Greenlights. I’ll admit, I was a bit hesitant to read the book myself (I explain why to Matthew in this podcast), but after hearing from enough people that I had to read it, I decided to pick up a copy and, let me tell you, it did not disappoint.

So, when I had the opportunity to have Matthew join me on the podcast, I jumped at the chance. We talk about many important topics in this conversation and really hit on fatherhood as we’re approaching Father’s Day. We also discuss the power of being the underdog, reinventing yourself, the value of sacrifice, taking our fathers off pedestals they don’t belong, and the concept and benefit of greenlights.

SHOW HIGHLIGHTS

• Gambling and investing in yourself
• Having the choice to be a victim
• Putting your father on a pedestal
• Rituals and initiations with your child
• Living in complacency and comfort
• Why American needs a civics class
• The value of playing the long game
• Course correcting your children
• Realizing that you’re immortal

Men, I wanted to do something special today as next Monday is Memorial day and, after serving time in the military myself, I know how crucial it is that we remember our fallen warriors and honor the ultimate sacrifice they made to protect and preserve our way of life.



So, I invited my friend and the youngest living Medal of Honor Recipient, Kyle Carpenter, back on the podcast to talk about his military service, transitioning from the military, and ultimately living a life worthy of the sacrifices of so many. If you don’t know Kyle’s story, he was as close to death as one person could be after jumping on a live grenade in Afghanistan to save his fellow Marines.

All I ask is that you have a listen and stop sometime this week to think about how you are living your life and the millions of men and women who have died so that you can.
