The Rich Roll Podcast

An absolute icon of modern music whose influence on culture has been nothing short of titanic, Rick Rubin is one of the greatest music producers of all time, noted for his unique—and some might say counter-intuitive—way in which he is able to help manifest the absolute best in every artist he works with. But lesser appreciated is Rick's spiritual approach to artistry, explored in his newly released and completely transformative book, The Creative Act, which is all about cultivating the innate creativity that dwells within all of us. But more than that, creativity is a way of moving through the world. Enjoy. Show notes + MORE Watch on YouTube Newsletter Sign-Up Today's Sponsors: Seed: seed.com/RICHROLL Calm: calm.com/richroll.

The co-founder of the companies Santara tech and Entalpi, Olav is a sports scientist and elite coach who helped to devise a protocol of testing and performance optimization, grounded in the scientific method, that is achieving undisputable real-world results as evidenced by the Olympic gold medals and championship victories of Kristian Blummenfelt and Gustav Iden. I had the honor to sit down with the Norwegian triathlon world champs Kristian and Gustav a few months ago. And while they earnestly answered every question I asked, I was still left wondering: what exactly is going on in Norway to produce such towering figures in the world of swim-bike-run? Here today, with the answers and practical training protocols, is the coach of The Norwegian Train himself.

Multiple studies now confirm a dramatic link between the health of our microbiome and our ability to combat viral illness. Today we explore this connection, with tools to promote gut health, optimize your immune system & prevent disease.Our host for today's exploration is the queen of all things gut health, Robynne Chutkan, MD.Dr. Chutkan is a board-certified gastroenterologist serving on the Georgetown University Hospital faculty. She is the founder of the Digestive Center for Wellness, as well as the author of 4 books on the microbiome, including her most recent, The Anti-Viral Gut, which offers practical advice for optimizing diet, exercise, sleep, and time outdoors to boost the body's defenses and our overall health.Appearing for the 2nd time on the podcast, my initial conversation with Dr. Chutkan 7 years ago (RRP #192) dove into the nuts and bolts of the microbiome: what it is, how it functions, and how we can care for it. Today we zoom in, focusing on the antiviral aspects of gut health, why it's so important, and what you can do about it.We've talked a lot about the microbiome on this podcast, but this exchange is truly a masterclass within itself.

In today's panoply of role models, rare is the story of an everyman transforming his life wholesale—then sharing his process openly and honestly with humility and vulnerability.Today I convene with one of these aspirational figures (and my own personal hero), endurance veteran Gordo Byrn.This episode is very special because Gordo is someone who greatly inspired and influenced my endurance career and mentored me from afar in ways beyond my ability to calculate.A former private equity investment banker, Gordo metamorphized into an elite ultra-endurance athlete, a student of elite performance, an endurance coach, and, mostly, a devoted family man. He's also the co-author of the endurance bible Going Long—an incredible resource for all the triathlon fiends out there.One of the reasons Gordo was able to impact me and so many others profoundly is that he humbly shared his experience on the internet as a Web 1.0 blogger and podcaster, a tradition he continues today on Twitter—a platform he uses to share his experience and wisdom on everything from endurance training, marriage, and parenting.Meeting Gordo was like meeting a lost twin for the first time, and this conversation was everything I hoped it would be.Watch: YouTube.Read: Show notes.Today's Sponsors:InsideTracker: insidetracker.com/RichRollAthletic Greens: athleticgreens.com/richroll Indeed: Indeed.com/RICHROLL.BetterHelp: BetterHelp.com/richroll.The Swedish superstar and multiple Ultraman and Otillo champion Jonas Colting calls Gordo ‘Tony Robbins in a Speedo.'

There are professionals. There are Olympians. But rare is the athlete who is so entirely and utterly devoted to sport in mind, body, and soul, that they exceed titles all together.Today I am lucky to host two of these extraordinary individuals: Norsemen Gustav Iden & Kristian Blummenfelt.In an unprecedented period of just 9 months, Kristian was crowned Olympic champion in Tokyo and bagged the fastest Ironman performance ever in his debut. After winning the 2021 70.3 World Champion title, this year Gustav had a spectacular 2022 debut victory at the Ironman World Championships in Kona—a race in which Kristian placed 3rd—emerging from Kristian's formidable shadow and smashing the overall Kona course record with a blistering 7:40:24. On top of that, he rewrote the marathon course record with a 2:36;15 26.2. Racing in tandem until the very end, Gustav and Kristian gave mindboggling, paradigm-crushing performances at the 2022 Ironman World Championship this year. It was an unforgettable barnburner of a race, and today we dive deep into the metrics and mechanics of that epic day.Watch: YouTube.Read: Show notes.Today's Sponsors:ROKA: roka.comUCAN: ucan.co/roll Navitas: navitasorganics.com/richrollWhoop: WHOOP.com Final Note: If you dig this conversation, look out for my upcoming podcast with their coach (and mad genius) Olav Aleksander Bu, which will be released in the not-so-distant future.The Norwegian Train is in the house.

Hypnosis is unfortunately a loaded term, one I admittedly met with skepticism. But as you'll soon discover, clinical hypnosis, as opposed to ‘stage' hypnosis, is a genuine and efficacious therapeutic protocol that induces a unique brain state—one that can be leveraged to improve everything from sleep states to high performance. It can be a powerful tool against addiction. And hypnosis has proven efficacious in the alleviation of trauma-related symptoms such as anxiety, chronic pain, and more.Here to help us better understand the power of scientific hypnosis is the world's leading researcher and clinician in the field, Dr. David Spiegel.Dr. Spiegel is the associate chair of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine, the director of the Stanford Center on Stress and Health, and has published over 480 journal articles, 170 book chapters, and a whopping 13 books on the subject of hypnosis and related topics.So set aside your pre-conceived notions regarding what hypnosis “is” and “is not”—and prepare to be amazed.A retrospective on all things hypnosis through the lens of hard science and and neurobiology, Dr. Speigel explains hypnosis, distinguishes the ‘stage' variety from the clinical definition, and dispels the many myths associated with the field.We discuss the many efficacious use cases for hypnosis, and a process Dr. Spiegel calls tranceformation. Finally, Dr. Spiegel imparts helpful tools for self-hypnosis and a simple test to gauge your own receptivity to hypnosis.Watch: YouTube.Read: Show notes.Today's Sponsors:Athletic Greens: athleticgreens.com/richroll Levels: levels.link/RICHROLLCalm: calm.com/richroll.LMNT: drinkLMNT.com/RICHROLLSpecial Offer: in gratitude for his appearance on the podcast, Dr. Spiegel is offering a special discount on the Reveri mobile app, a self-hypnosis tool that was developed by Dr. Spiegel and his lab at Stanford, which is available in both iOS and Android*.

Meet François D'Haene.One of the greatest (some say the greatest) ultra-distance trail runners in the world, French superstar François is a former physiotherapist turned winemaker who has collected 36 victories and 51 podiums across some of the most prestigious and challenging races in the world. His palmarès include taking victory at UTMB an astonishing four times, a record only recently matched by Kílian Jornet this year. In 2017, François clocked the fastest-ever traverse of the 210-mile John Muir Trail. And in 2021, he won the Hardrock 100, one of the most difficult trail ultras, breaking the overall record previously held by Jornet.Beyond the glow of ultra superstardom, François keeps things simple—a lifestyle that prioritizes his family as a dad to three. And an approach to sustained excellence that values community, connection, and nature over race results and rewards.It's this disposition—a rare balance many athletes of his caliber struggle to master—that I find most compelling. And it's the focus of today's fascinating exploration.Today we explore the elements of François' mastery.We parse his humble and grounded approach to craft—and how this mindset has contributed to sustained success and career longevity at the highest level of sport.In addition, we discuss the principles that drive him, the details of his training regimen, the allure of nature, advice for tackling your first ultra, and many other topics.But more than anything, this is a conversation about the tension between the rigors of pursuing mastery and the value of important life experiences beyond the parameters of sport.Read: Show notes.I should say up front that François' French accent can be a bit thick at times, but if you listen closely and aren't tempted to increase the playback speed, you should be able to follow him just fine.

Hilaree Nelson (December 13, 1972 – September 26, 2022), was one of the world's most accomplished adventure athletes.Named one of National Geographic's 2018 Adventurers of the Year, Hilaree specializes in ski-mountaineering — a discipline that involves huge and often technical mountain ascents either on skis or carrying them, then descending said peaks on skis.Over the course of her storied career, Hilaree has conquered some of the most exotic and treacherous mountain ranges on Earth. Among her many accomplishments:the first woman to climb both Everest and its 8,000-meter neighbor, Lhotse, in a 24-hour periodthe first person to ski down all five of the Mongolian Altai's “Holy Peaks”skied from the Himalayan summit of Cho Oyu in Tibetsummited peaks and volcanoes in remote locations across Russia, Mongolia, Pakistan, Bolivia, Argentina, Lebanon & TibetRe-released as a tribute to Hilaree, this is episode 364 from 2018 - an incredible conversation about fear, risk resilience, adventure and potential. It's about balancing the pull of adventure against her responsibilities as a single mom to two boys.It's about the allure of the outdoors. But mostly, this is an exchange about the virtues of placing yourself outside your comfort zone – and what that can teach us about potential, the preciousness of life, and what it means to be truly alive.Watch on YouTubeOriginal Episode 364 Show NotesThis is for you Hilarree.

If you're someone who actually believes that people don't change, prepare for a major mindset shift.Meet John McAvoy.Returning for his 2nd appearance on the podcast, John is positive transformation rendered in human form—and his story is one of the most compelling, improbable, inspirational, and cinematic tales you will ever be privileged to hear.The McAvoy name might ring a bell for longtime listeners. He first appeared on the show a little over four years ago on episode #379—a conversation that ranks among the most memorable and impactful in the ten-year history of the show.For those unfamiliar, John is a former high-profile armed robber, one of Britain's most successful career criminals and most wanted men. His reckoning was delivered in the form of a double life sentence (the 2nd of 2 prison stints) on the notorious Belmarsh high-security wing—a space he shared with extremist cleric Abu Hamza and the 7/7 bombers.To the rational outsider, John's future was bleak. But a chance encounter with prison gym indoor rowing machine would ultimately change his life forever. In short shrift, John ended up breaking a cluster of British and World indoor rowing records while incarcerated, and upon parole, began forging a new life as a professional endurance athlete.Today, John is a Nike-sponsored Ironman athlete living in the Alps, a vegan (not my doing—I promise), and a stalwart mouthpiece for prison reform who has testified at 10 Downing Street. But above all, he's a staunch advocate for the inherent power we all possess to course correct the trajectory of our lives, no matter how dire the circumstances.I was in London recently and couldn't resist the opportunity to reconvene with this legend. This episode is old school—no video, just two guys vibing across a kitchen table.

Meet the masters of resilience. 80's metal trailblazers: Anvil.For those of you who bristle at the thought of heavy metal, set aside that resistance. Give this one a shot with an open mind and heart. And thank me later—because the story of Anvil—and the filmmaker who captured their tale—is nothing short of remarkable.At 14, Steve ‘Lips' Kudlow and Robb Reiner made a pact to rock together forever. In 1982 they birthed a highly influential album that would inspire the likes of Anthrax and Metallica—and then proceeded to drop off the map, toiling in obscurity for decades while the bands they impacted rose to superstardom.Then, in 2006, filmmaker (and former Anvil roadie) Sacha Gervasi set out to find out what happened, discovering to his astonishment that 25 years later the band was still making music and remained steadfastly committed to the most impossible of dreams: making it big.Now this is a story, he thought.So Sacha grabbed a small camera crew and proceeded to follow the band as they persevered through obstacles, navigated a botched European tour, and recorded a thirteenth album. Despite rejection that would devastate the strongest among us, Anvil refused to give up on their dream—and never lost hope.Today we tell this surprisingly touching and remarkably inspirational story.And now, 50 years since the band debuted and 13 years after the rockumentary first premiered in 2008, the film is being re-released in 200 theaters across the US this week and later in theatres across Europe and beyond—a response to a new generation of enthusiastic young people who discovered and fell in love with the movie during Covid.Watch: YouTube.Read: Show notes.Today's Sponsors:ROKA: roka.com and enter code RichRoll for 20% off.Navitas: navitasorganics.com/richroll and enter code RICHROLL for 30% off.Calm: 40% off a Calm Premium subscription at calm.com/richroll.Whoop: WHOOP.com and use the code RICHROLL for 15% off.Levels: Learn more at levels.link/RICHROLLLips and Robb hold an unwavering conviction and extraordinary amount of courage that is nothing short of superhuman. They are inspiring examples of perseverance in the face of adversity, and I'm delighted to share their story. I hope you find it as touching and compelling as I did.

Dr. Paul Conti is a graduate of Stanford University School of Medicine. He completed his training at Stanford and Harvard, where he served as Chief Resident. He then served on the medical faculty at Harvard before moving to Portland, Oregon, and founding the Pacific Premiere Group—a clinical practice helping people heal and grow from trauma and other life challenges.Dr. Conti is also the author of Trauma, the Invisible Epidemic: How Trauma Works and How We Can Heal From It, which I feel strongly is required reading for everyone, particularly those of you looking to not only heal from your own trauma, and for anyone desiring to break cycles of generational trauma.This conversation is truly a master class on all things trauma.Dr. Conti begins by defining trauma, and explaining what trauma is and isn't. We then look at the many ways in which unresolved trauma perniciously manifests in our lives, discuss the various ways in which the medical establishment fails us with respect to mental health, and explore a vision for how to improve it. And we close with tools available to effectively process, heal, and even prevent trauma from negatively impacting our lives and the lives of our loved ones.Watch: YouTube.Read: Show notes.Today's Sponsors:Salomon: salomon.com/richroll and use code LOVETHEPAIN (exclusions apply).Whoop: WHOOP.com and use the code RICHROLL.Athletic Greens: athleticgreens.com/richrollInsideTracker: insidetracker.com/RichRollDr. Conti's wisdom on this important subject is profound.

It's no secret that social media's influence on us is designed to be invisible. It can tell whatever story it wants, affecting not only what you think but how you think—and ultimately how you behave in the world.Here to help us unpack these important ideas is Max Fisher, a New York Times investigative reporter, Pulitzer Prize finalist, and author of a brand new, vitally important book entitled, The Chaos Machine: The Inside Story of How Social Media Rewired Our Minds and Our World—a referendum on all of the individual and social damage currently being wrought by Big Tech and the social media empires that that have come to monopolize our attention, foment division and fracture our world.We start by covering Max's journey to reporting on social media and politics, the specific ways social media changes its users' morality, and how algorithms can make users more prone to violence.We also dive into cutting-edge research on how social media inculcates a super-exaggerated feeling of outrage and intolerance, making users more likely to believe misinformation and the complicated role offree speech in it all.And we close things out by sharing the dangers of Big Tech behemoths holding such large data sets on human behavior—and why social media addiction is so terrifying.Watch: YouTube.Read: Show notes.Levels: Whether you're tuning your diet, optimizing your exercise, or just trying to stay healthy, monitoring your glucose with Levels can help.

In the most health-obsessed society ever, all is not well. At the root lies a sleeping giant: unhealed trauma.Here to help us further explore this profound insight is renowned speaker and bestselling author, Dr. Gabor Maté.Returning for his second appearance on the show (his first being RRP #188) Dr. Maté is an expert in a wide range of topics, best known for his work on the relationship between addiction and childhood development.If you are interested in truly understanding the nature of addiction, his book In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts is an essential read that has influenced me profoundly.Dr. Maté's latest and most ambitious book to date is The Myth of Normal, a groundbreaking extrapolation of his addiction thesis that investigates the true causes of illness, the many ways in which our society breeds disease, and the pathway to health and well-being.Over the course of this conversation, Dr. Maté brilliantly illuminates what we can do to course correct and heal as individuals, and as a collective society at large.Watch: YouTube.Read: Show notes.InsideTracker: Created by leading scientists in biometrics, InsideTracker analyzes your blood, DNA, and fitness data to identify where you're optimized and where you're not, giving you personalized guidance on the right exercise, nutrition, and supplementation for your body.

The heart and soul of this podcast is personal transformation—and today's story of metamorphosis is one of the most compelling, improbable, and inspirational tales I have ever heard.Narrating this epic saga is Ken Rideout, a guy who has transcended a litany of seemingly insurmountable obstacles to become one of the world's pre-eminent master athletes.Now 51, he smokes his running competitors like a bad habit—and is only beginning to hit his stride.It's a land mine littered path that didn't come easy. A rough and chaotic childhood, a battle with addiction, learning harsh truths as a prison guard right out of high school, and later losing colleagues on 9/11 are just a few of the many obstacles he's faced and overcome.Nonetheless, and without any formal experience, he somehow made it to Wall Street and beyond—and has been stacking goals ever since.Ken's latest goal? To be crowned masters champion in all the world's most prestigious marathons.Crowned “World's Best Marathoner Over 50” by the New York Times (in an article written by friend of the podcast Matt Futterman), it's fair to say this former boxer is already well on his way to achieving that goal. Today we walk through Ken's journey, covering his early years reared in chaos, his time spent as a prison guard, and how he hustled his way against all odds to get to Wall Street.We also dive into the opioid addiction that nearly cratered his life, his mid-life renaissance as an athlete, his inhuman drive, his unique professional approach to training, and the mindset tools he's leveraged to create improbable success—all of which are layered with a rare and colorful humility.Watch: YouTube.Read: Show notes.Today's Sponsors:Athletic Greens: 75 whole food sourced ingredients designed to optimize 5 key areas of health.

Are you one of those people that finds solace and comfort in rainy days or melancholy music?It's not quite sadness. It's more a feeling of longing. A beautiful ache that makes you feel more connected to the human experience.So what is that specifically? And why does it compel us so?Former corporate lawyer turned author Susan Cain wondered the same—a query that launched a 7-year journey to better understand the complex and nuanced nature of all things melancholic. The result of Susan's adventure is Bittersweet, her #1 New York Times bestselling book that ponders this quiet state of being and why embracing it paves a true path to creativity, connection, and transcendence.Bluntly put, quiet states of being are Susan Cain's jam. Today we go delightfully deep on introversion, bittersweetness, grief, creativity, connection, spirituality, and more.This conversation covers Susan's transition from attorney to writer and how she came to write about introversion.We discuss the irony of being a public introvert, the power of honoring your inner introvert, and how to support introverted kids and co-workers.We also go deep on bittersweetness—and the how and whys behind cultivating it as a means of giving our lives more resonance and meaning and appreciation.Watch: YouTube.Read: Show notes.Today's Sponsors:ROKA: Cutting-edge eyewear & apparel built for top performance.ROKA combines the no-slip performance with fashionable frames.

We as a global society currently face challenges—some of which are existential in nature—that simply cannot be solved with the mindset, institutions, and paradigms currently in place.Instead, these solutions require that we think beyond current economic, political, and social constraints—and even well beyond our individual life spans—to consider deeply the impact we will have on many generations into the future.Indeed, these solutions require an applied mindset that Ari Wallach calls Longpath—an active way of being that cultivates future-conscious thinking and behavior to build more hopeful visions of the future, turn those visions into action, and foster more meaning in our lives and legacy.Ari is a futurist (although he hates that term), a social systems strategist, and the author of a new book out this week, aptly titled (you guessed it) Longpath, which extends a discussion he began with his 2017 TED Talk, Short-termism is killing us: it's time for Longpath which has been viewed over 2.5 million times.This conversation asks a simple question: how do we become great ancestors to our future descendants?The future is not a singular certainty. Nor is it solely fueled by technological advances in some far distant point in time. Instead, the future is manifesting now—and it is very much human. In this fascinating conversation Ari explains why.Watch: YouTube.Read: Show notes.Today's Sponsors:Calm: Guided meditations, sleep stories, and more.

Today we explore health, fitness, longevity & the pursuit of meaning through the lived experience of a human who has been walking planet Earth for a full 100 years.Meet centenarian Mike Fremont, a retired engineer turned climate activist and life-long athlete who holds a slew of impressive age group world records in running, including the fastest recorded marathons for an 88-year-old, 90-year-old, and a 91-year-old.I was introduced to Mike by his running buddy elite ultra-marathoner and popular friend of the pod Harvey Lewis, who helped arrange today's unique opportunity to learn and be inspired by someone who has not only been alive for so long but who has remained incredibly vibrant well beyond social expectations. For those of you who feel like it's too late or you've missed the boat on being an athlete, this guy's marathon career didn't even kick into high gear until his 60's—40 years ago!This conversation is my attempt to extract his testimony and counsel for younger generations. We dive into what he has learned about life, longevity, vitality, purpose, fitness, and setting and world records. We also discuss the WFPB diet (which he adopted 30 years ago in the wake of a colon cancer diagnosis) that fuels his training, keeps him spry, informs his climate activism, and in his words, is what has allowed him to thrive for decades beyond social expectations.It's not often you get the opportunity to spend time with a centenarian. This is a small attempt to course correct mainstream culture's failure to appropriately appreciate our elders. I loved having Mike on the show, consider him a new friend, and I'm proud to share his voice with you.Watch: YouTube.Read: Show notes.Today's Sponsors:Athletic Greens: 75 whole food sourced ingredients designed to optimize 5 key areas of health.

What defines art? What makes one an artist? What does art teach us—and why does it matter?To help us make sense of a world elusive to many, today I convene with the singular Heidi Zuckerman.A woman I've known for over 30 years, Heidi has devoted her entire professional career to understanding art, the people who make art, and why we should care.Heidi currently serves as CEO and Director of the Orange County Museum of Art, where she is overseeing construction of a spectacular new building designed by legendary architect Thom Mayne of Morphosis, scheduled to open in October 2022.In addition, she hosts Conversations About Art (a podcast on which I was privileged to be a guest) and is the author of the Conversations with Artists book series.This is a conversation about art.In addition to tracking Heidi's career arc, we discuss what defines art, what makes for great art, why we should care about art, and why artists matter.We discuss the barriers to accessing art. How art can and should be democratized. And the role of art and artists in this era of offense and content overload.On a personal level, this one is very meaningful given my long history with Heidi.I really enjoyed this conversation—I hope you learn as much as I did.Watch: YouTube.Read: Show notesToday's Sponsors:Outerknown: High-quality, sustainably produced, and great-looking men's and women's clothes.

Healthspan extension may pique your interest. But it's the obsession of today's guest, a physician and engineer focused on the applied science of longevity to reframe and improve how we live while challenging all we've been previously taught about the interaction of health, human performance, and medicine.Meet Peter Attia, MD.Peter's current practice deals extensively with nutritional interventions, exercise physiology, sleep physiology, emotional and mental health, and pharmacology to increase lifespan (how long you live), while simultaneously improving healthspan (the quality of your life).Today's conversation, the first in what I hope to be many, focuses on the following specific topics:Longevity. From a holistic perspective, discussing the physical, mental and emotional pillars required to erect the foundation for a long life well-lived, including how and why he is training (as all us of should be) for what he calls “The Centenarian Decathlon”.Metabolic health. What this actually means, how to optimize it, and the role a Continuous Glucose Monitor (or CGM) can play in engaging you with your own metabolic health.Strength, mobility and brain health.Zone 2 training. What it is, how to do it, and why it's important.Peter is an utterly fascinating human with a clear grasp of science and how to effectively communicate it.

What are the limits of human performance? How can we reimagine sport to boost lifelong adoption? And what is the athlete's role in moving culture forward?Today we explore these questions and tons more with the lord of all things overlooked and misunderstood, Malcolm Gladwell.I suspect most of you are very familiar with Malcolm. Perhaps you've listened to his sensational podcast Revisionist History, where every episode re-examines something from the past—an event, a person, an idea, even a song—and asks whether our collective stories got it right the first time.Or maybe you've read one of his six New York Times best sellers, such as The Tipping Point,Blink, Outliers, David and Goliath, and Talking to Strangers.Today's conversation begins with running, extends to sport, broadens into a conversation about the role of athletes in moving society forward, and (of course) unearths other topics overlooked and misunderstood—all in true Gladwellian style.We talk about his latest podcast, Legacy of Speed, and why this terrain just might be his most Gladwellian project to date.Malcolm also shares several of his orthogonal ideas around education, publishing, the future of audio, creativity, and many more fascinating topics.Today's episode is also viewable on YouTube.More about Malcom + show notes: https://bit.ly/richroll692aToday's Sponsors:Athletic Greens: 75 whole food sourced ingredients designed to optimize 5 key areas of health.

What if we reimagined aging not as something to fear—but rather as something aspirational?Today we reframe aging as a sacred phase of life to be celebrated.
