On today's episode, Kyle Grieve discusses Charlie Munger's legendary speech, The Psychology of Human Misjudgment, and unpacks all 25 of his cognitive biases that often lead even the most intelligent people to make poor decisions. Drawing from Poor Charlie's Almanack, Kyle explores how these psychological tendencies—like incentive-caused bias, social proof, and inconsistency avoidance—can distort our thinking in business, investing, and everyday life. He blends Munger's timeless wisdom with real-world investing examples, personal experiences, and practical strategies to help listeners make better, more rational decisions. IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN: 00:00 - Intro 03:02 - Why incentives quietly override moral behavior. 06:32 - Why liking and disliking an investing thesis can distort reality. 09:54 - Why doubt avoidance cause investors to take significant risks in things like IPOs. 12:07 - How inconsistency avoidance causes a lazy creep into our thinking processes. 24:38 - How to avoid the destructive effects of reciprocation. 32:49 - The dangers of overestimating our abilities. 37:44 - Why jumping off a sinking ship beats trying to patch it up. 45:58 - Why contrasting stock prices in exuberant markets evaporates margins of safety. 59:41 - Why investors should choose simplicity > complexity. 01:01:43 - Why you should search for Lollapalooza effects in business.

Doug talks with Haroula Rose — the only artist to have participated in Almanack Arts as both a screenwriter and a songwriter. Haroula reflects on how that rare crossover has shaped her creative process and why it makes her the perfect bridge for this Friday's Almanack Arts and Almanack Screenwriters Summer Soiree. She previews her live set, talks about collaborating with fellow performers like Cassandra Jenkins and Rob Ackroyd, and shares what it means to honor Grammy-winning producer George Drakoulias. Haroula also speaks to the heart of the Almanack programs and invites everyone to join a truly special night of storytelling, music, and community on Nantucket.
As Max Bonnell details early on in his new book Brick by Brick, the Australian Cricketers in England 1964, the Ashes series of that summer gets a pretty bad rap. To an extent, that's understandable given only one of the five Tests had a winner and one of the draws, the Old Trafford batathon, is seen as an emblem of where much of that decade was less than captivating. But off the field, it was transformative. Specifically that summer, with Beatlemania at its peak and the election of an ambitious Labour government just around the corner. And cricket was changing at a rapid pace too, even if it wasn't immediately obvious at the time. Max does a fine job of threading these themes together and casting the cricket in a more flattering light than is usually so, when Bob Simpson's men went to England and got the job done.

West Indies Australia Daily, 3rd Test, Kingston Day 3: It's hard to put this one into words. Not often that you witness an utter sporting annhiliation, but today West Indies honestly hit the lowest ebb in a century-long and deeply proud cricket history. They're in the 27 Club, and they might not be coming back. On the other hand, we saw a hat-trick!

England India Daily, 3rd Test, Lord's Day 5: India couldn't have given it much more after looking gone in the first hour of morning five, dragging their chase into the depths of the final session. The gripping finish was made possible by Ravindra Jadeja, who else, with able support from the tail. But in the end, the final twist came courtesy of the man with a broken finger who looked the least likely, Shoaib Bashir.

West Indies Australia Daily, 3rd Test, Kingston Day 2: We've seen it before, then it happened again. Australia reached the evening session having to bat, and the wickets tumbled under a barrage of fast bowling, while Jamaica's crowd howled from the stands. The only problem for West Indies is that they had already been bowled out themselves. On it goes.

England India Daily, 3rd Test, Lord's Day 4: We are on, people, we are *on*. With scores level, England weren't sure how to proceed, veering between attack and defence before a stunning burst from Bumrah and Washington wrapped up their innings.

West Indies Australia Daily, 3rd Test, Kingston Day 1: Chaos, not from ball one, but certainly from session three.

England India Daily, 3rd Test, Lord's Day 3: A day when honours were literally even after the conclusion of India's innings. How did two India batters get out for KL Rahul's century? Ben Stokes is a big part of it. Jofra bowled his fastest spell on record, but for what reward? Ravindra Jadeja again contributes, before some finger-wagging and verbals between Zak Crawley and Jasprit Bumrah, with help from, well, the entire Indian team.

England India Daily, 3rd Test, Lord's Day 2: The fast bowling head to head. How we've waited to see this. After a quiet first day, Jasprit Bumrah started his second day at Lord's with an almighty bang, once again showing what he can do.

England India Daily, 3rd Test, Lord's Day 1: Finally, a day for the purists, with Bazball nowhere to be seen after England chose to bat.

Season 18, Episode 21: The kids have taken over the classroom. Ben Jones joins Cameron Ponsonby in a rare double-guest-hosting of our weekly show. What to make of Wiaan Mulder's declaration when in sight of Brian Lara's 400*, and just how bold is saying he could have but didn't want to? We swing by the County Championship and the Kookaburra ball experiment before also taking a look at just how cool MS Dhoni legally trademarking a nickname really is. The uncertainty in the Australian top-order won't go away, and we get excited about the prospect of some thunderbolt bowlers in women's cricket. Off the field, a new ICC chief executive has been appointed and you'll never guess who. To finish, our tyros lock horns over the proposed Club Champions League revival.

England India Daily, 2nd Test, Edgbaston, Day 5. Rain threatened to bring Shubman's declaration timing into question, but it was a steady flow of wickets, led by Akash Deep's 10-fa, rather than precipitation, that dominated the day. Questions aplenty for England – will they persist with Shoaib Bashir? Who drops out for the return of Jofra? What to do with the excellent Jamie Smith? India has its own selection questions as it brings back Jasprit Bumrah. Listen to how the final day at Edgbaston sets up a belter at Lod's this week. Cameron Ponsonby joins Ben Jones.

West Indies Australia Daily, 2nd Test, Grenada Day 3: A rare day in this series that felt like normal Test cricket, with a bit of rain slowing down proceedings, and Steve Smith looking at least half a million bucks until it ended.

He's currently a host of the show “Amanpour and Company” on PBS and CNN, a contributor to CNBC, and the host of the podcast “Trailblazers, from Dell Technologies.” The author of many bestselling books, the one we're discussing this week is Benjamin Franklin: An American Life.As Walter says on the pod, my invitation to him to come talk about Franklin spurred him to propose writing a new, second brief book on Franklin's meaning for America, especially his hatred of “arbitrary power.” For two clips of our convo — on why Franklin opposed a one-person presidency, and his brutal rift with his son William — head to our YouTube page.Other topics: raised in NOLA in a diverse neighborhood; his work during the recovery from Katrina; Michael Lewis and Nick Lemann as NOLA contemporaries; Harvard in the ‘70s; the benefits of being an outsider; Franklin as the 10th son of a Puritan immigrant in Boston; indentured to his brother as a printer's apprentice; running away to Philly; his self-taught genius; his 13 Virtues; his many pseudonyms; Poor Richard's Almanack; poking fun at the elite; his great scientific feats; giving away the patents for his inventions; becoming the most famous American abroad; leaving his wife in Philly; his philandering; struggling to hold the empire together as a diplomat in London; humiliated by elites in the Cockpit in Westminster; returning to Philly as a fierce revolutionary; seeing his son William stay loyal to the Crown as governor of NJ; embracing William's abandoned son; securing an alliance with France and its crucial navy; the deism of the Founders; balancing faith and reason; power vs arbitrary power; Trump's daily whims (e.g. tariffs); the separation of powers; judicial review; private property as a check against tyranny; the commons; Posse Comitatus; the Marines in L.A.; Congress ceding power to Trump; the elites' failure over Iraq and Wall Street; and the dangers of cognitive sorting.Browse the Dishcast archive for an episode you might enjoy (the first 102 are free in their entirety — subscribe to get everything else).

England India Daily, 2nd Test, Edgbaston, Day 3: Six ducks, two doubles? Just about. It seemed we would get there during the monster partnership between Jamie Smith and Harry Brook, but nobody else could figure out how to score, while without Bumrah, the next-best rank tried their hardest in the form of Mohammed Siraj and Akash Deep. The scores are high, but there are many reasons why this match is interestingly set up.

England India Daily, 2nd Test, Edgbaston, Day 1: There were changes to the India team, but not the ones we expected. Shubman took it upon himself to hand the day to India by a split decision. But is it enough to worry the Bazballians? Is this another renaissance for Chris Woakes? There was another threat of a collapse for India, and was it a case of “Stupid Stupid Stupid” for Rishabh? A pivotal Day 2 awaits. Ben Jones joins Daniel Norcross.

England India Daily, 2nd Test, Edgbaston Preview: Whilst it's only 1-0, there's a sense that India needs a positive result out of this game, and since Bazball's England doesn't do draws, a win is the only option. How do they manage to ensure the series isn't as good as over by Lord's, and do it at a ground where they have never won? Jasprit Bumrah is the obvious choice, but should they also pick Kuldeep Yadav? It'll be a pivotal Test for spinners as Shoaib Bashir and his tendency to leak runs will likely be in the spotlight.

What does it take for an idea to stand the test of time and shape generations? In this episode, Eric Jorgenson returns on The Greatness Machine to explore the enduring power of timeless ideas and transformative storytelling. Joining host Darius Mirshahzadeh, they dive into what makes certain books iconic and how mystics like Rumi and Jesus continue to influence modern philosophy.

England India Daily, 1st Test, Headingley, Review: Daniel Norcross and Ben Jones assess a wild Test match in Leeds that was… actually quite predictable when you break it down day by day. Is this the end of batting first in England? Daniel seems to think so. Joe Root continues to be unnervingly nerveless in run chases. Looking to Edgbaston, how will the bowling lineups look? Will Akash Deep or Arshdeep Singh be called in to bolster the pace attack? Will we see Atkinson return for England or, whisper it, Jofra Archer? For India in general, will Shubman find his voice in the field, and will his troops be able to up their intensity in the field?

England India Daily, 1st Test, Headingley Day 5: England do it! They pull off the 10th-highest chase in history. A lacklustre India provided only scant challenges, as an England batting lineup, turbo-charged by Ben Duckett, put India to the sword. What does this mean for India? A “Bumrah Test” is lost, and Guatam Gambhir is now 3 wins, 7 losses, 1 draw in tests. India are the first team in first class cricket history to lose a game having made five centuries. How did they muck this up? Cameron Ponsonby is joined by Daniel Norcross.

England India Daily, 1st Test, Headingley Day 3: What was Harry Brook thinking? And before that, the same question applies to Jamie Smith.

World Test Championship Final, the day after: When South Africa fell short in the T20 World Cup Final last year, it was Dan Gallan who we called upon to explain the deep hurt. So, as promised, he returns the day after a massive celebration to put into words why the Proteas' triumph means so very much. Also, an eye to Australia's "reset", which begins in Barbados next week.

World Test Championship Final, Day 4: They bloody well did it. South Africa and winning finals - that hasn't been a pairing that has seen much airtime in international cricket. Things didn't look good this time around either. But after a remarkable final push, it is offical: South Africa are the World Test Champions. It matters for so many reasons, and right now it is a wildly emotional day at Lord's. Support the show with a Nerd Pledge at patreon.com/thefinalword We welcome Noobru to our team! We love the stuff.

World Test Championship Final, Day 3: South Africa have looked the underdog throughout this WTC final, but halfway through the third day, that all changed. Even the torment that Starc and Hazlewood put them through with the bat was washed away, as Aiden Markram put together the innings of his life. But they're not done yet, and for South Africa, the last part of the climb has so far proved too hard. Can they finish the job on Day 4?

World Test Championship Final, Day 1: If Rabada fired on day one, Cummins fired back on day two, in a battle of fast-bowling quality that any preview could and should have predicted. Then it was Lungi Ngidi's turn to exert an influence, in a match hurtling towards a conclusion but that could easily go either way.

World Test Championship Final, Day 1: South Africa needed to do some damage with their quick bowlers early to challenge Australia, and they did exactly that. It set up a tight contest through the day, with Lord's in fine voice, before Australia's quicks had their own say by the close. A shootout might well be on.

Season 18, Episode 18: Cricket Australia's new CEO came ready to talk when sitting down with Adam at Lord's two days before the WTC Final. Typically at this point, we list what was discussed but this time, but it'd be easier to identify what didn't come up in one of the busiest eps we've ever recorded. What's obvious: Todd Greenberg is a man determined to make his time in the top job count and isn't afraid to say what he thinks on issues that divide.
