In this episode, both Scoop and Raj have hardcore fanboy moments for the legendary business consultant Jay Abraham, after he appeared on a podcast with The Terminator of self-development, the icon, Tony Robbins.  They talk about giving away all of your upfront profit in return for a customer's lifetime value, how to leverage undervalued aspects of a business to make more money and the upside of sharing audiences.  We also have a realisation that OPP is much about having a post-game barbershop style review of a podcast, as well as helping you figure out which podcast to listen to.  This episode is really special.   Please subscribe and give us a 5-star rating and leave a comment wherever you see this podcast, but especially on Apple's Podcast store.  OPP - Other People's Podcast is a show dedicated to reviewing and reflecting on the best personal and professional development podcasts available online today.   The show is hosted by Fatman Scoop and Raj Kotecha.  The show is Produced and Edited by Arjun M Shah and Executive Producer Raj Kotecha.  Any third-party content featured in OPP is purely for the purpose of promoting the excellent podcasts and people mentioned by the show and is not intended to infringe on any copyrights.

One of tech's nicest founders, HootSuite CEO Ryan Holmes was interviewed by one of podcasting's' most positive people, Lewis Howes, on The School of Greatness podcast.  We talk about when Raj met Ryan many years ago and got hit with the Canadian kindness, how Hootsuite might have gotten to a billion dollars and Scoop's love for the concept of Good Hustle Vs Bad Hustle.  We also talk about the P Diddy / Puff Daddy effect of overworking and how great business ideas come when you scratch your own itch (aka offering the market a solution based on a problem you once solved for yourself).  We also get into how being a generalist can get you to a billion-dollar company - if you're good.   Please subscribe and give us a 5-star rating and leave a comment wherever you see this podcast, but especially on Apple's Podcast store.  OPP - Other People's Podcast is a show dedicated to reviewing and reflecting on the best personal and professional development podcasts available online today.   The show is hosted by Fatman Scoop and Raj Kotecha.  The show is Produced and Edited by Arjun M Shah and Executive Producer Raj Kotecha.  Any third-party content featured in OPP is purely for the purpose of promoting the excellent podcasts and people mentioned by the show and is not intended to infringe on any copyrights.

It took Scoop a while to get into this one by his own admission, but he drops some real gems of his own after listening to marketing OG Ryan Holiday (former assistant to Tim Ferriss) chatting with one of the podcast Kings, James Altucher.  The chat is around perennial (lifelong) selling, the main subject that Altucher and Holiday discussed.  Scoop goes into the idea of building things that are timeless but eventually the conversation becomes about your next door neighbour turning into an alien with green stuff leaking out of their nose.  The show also gets a very rude interruption by one of Jeff Bezo's inventions and Raj rants a bit on the ever present conversation of stoicism in personal development podcasts.  Also, did you know Scoop was the first ever black podcaster?  Find out more in this episode.   Please subscribe and give us a 5 star rating and leave a comment wherever you see this podcast, but especially on Apple's Podcast store.  OPP - Other People's Podcast is a show dedicated to reviewing and reflecting on the best personal and professional development podcasts available online today.   The show is hosted by Fatman Scoop and Raj Kotecha.  The show is Produced and Edited by Arjun M Shah and Executive Producer Raj Kotecha.  Any third-party content featured in OPP is purely for the purpose of promoting the excellent podcasts and people mentioned by the show and is not intended to infringe on any copyrights.

This episode is too much.  After several false starts, including Scoop getting his hosts mixed up, we finally get into a podcast starring two great alpha males.  Entrepreneur and social media mogul Gary Vaynerchuk interviewed by the OG of podcasting and renaissance man Joe Rogan on The Joe Rogan Experience Episode 910.  We talk about Gary buying Facebook stock from Mark Zuckerburg's parents, Scoop visiting Gary's multimillion-dollar agency in New York, VaynerMedia, drinking the "Vayner Water" and how basically every tough guy wants Joe Rogan's actual life (by the way, his Netflix special is phenomenal).  Even though Manchild The Producer was on his phone (aka Tinder) during the podcast, which led to a solid cussing, we also talked about robotics and if they'll end up killing all humans.   Please subscribe and give us a 5 star rating and leave a comment wherever you see this podcast, but especially on Apple's Podcast store.  OPP - Other People's Podcast is a show dedicated to reviewing and reflecting on the best personal and professional development podcasts available online today.   The show is hosted by Fatman Scoop and Raj Kotecha.  The show is Produced and Edited by Arjun M Shah and Executive Producer Raj Kotecha.  Any third-party content featured in OPP is purely for the purpose of promoting the excellent podcasts and people mentioned by the show and is not intended to infringe on any copyrights.

In this final episode for Season One, Raj and Scoop chop up a huge interview with the internet's golden child, Kevin Rose, interviewing the real-life Tony Stark, Elon Musk (Tesla, SpaceX, PayPal, the man's winning list goes on).  They talk about Elon being a visionary but how the space launch that happened in Dec 2017 was just too much for Scoop.  Raj also tries to calm Scoop down on Elon interfering with the "people" of Mars.  Jewels include the value of having loss leaders in your business, being resilient when people turn you down and becoming the thing that people don't believe you can be.
