Anthony Scaramucci joins Donny Deutsch to break down his new book, All the Wrong Moves: How Three Catastrophic Decisions Led to the Rise of Trump, a sharp and surprisingly self-critical look at how America got here. The SkyBridge founder and co-host of The Rest Is Politics: US walks through the three turning points he believes set the stage for MAGA: letting China into the WTO without checking its rise, the post-9/11 wars funded by tax cuts that blew up the deficit, and a 2008 bailout that rescued the banks but left Main Street behind. As Scaramucci puts it, Occupy Wall Street and the Tea Party "had a baby, and they named it baby MAGA." Donny and Anthony also get into the fixes: restoring pay-as-you-go budgeting, ending Citizens United, and open primaries to break the two-party duopoly. They discuss Trump's fight with Canada and why Scaramucci predicts a deal is coming, the odds of a blue wave in the midterms, whether the Democrats can win back the center, and the Shapiro vs. Ossoff vs. Newsom debate. Plus, what happens to the Republican Party after Trump, why MAGA may not survive him, and whether "The Mooch" would ever run for office himself.

Tera Roberts, Pat Fitzmaurice and Andrew Erickson tackle the Week 4 fantasy football running back rankings after injuries and changing workloads reshaped the position almost overnight. They debate Jeremiah Love’s move toward RB1 territory, how aggressively to trust Braylon Allen and Aaron Jones, and whether disappointing starts from players like Saquon Barkley and Omarion Hampton should change expectations. From reliable volume plays to risky committees and deeper flex options, the crew sorts through a position that has become much harder to navigate heading into Week 4.

A turning point is a specific moment, decision, relationship, or experience that redirects the future of your life. A turning point can be positive or negative, and either can be life-altering. Do not imagine them all to be bad, because they can often be very positive. Your life today is what it is because of the turning points in your life.  Moments can happen, and all of a sudden what happens next is impacted by it.Decisions we make, those that are good and a few that are bad, will impact the future, positively or negatively.

Decisions around salary, dividends, investments, retirement accounts, insurance, and estate planning can all affect your cash flow, net worth, taxes, and the legacy you ultimately leave behind.In this episode, we walk through two very different business-owner scenarios to show why focusing on taxes alone can lead you toward the wrong solution—and why understanding your complete financial blueprint needs to come first.You'll discover:How to distinguish between a genuine tax problem and a broader cash flow, savings, or wealth-structure problem.Why passive investment income inside a corporation can create significant tax drag—and how asset allocation and investment structure can change the equation.How to think about corporate and personal assets together when balancing today's cash flow, long-term net worth, and the wealth you want to leave behind.Press play to learn how a wealth blueprint can help you make more intentional decisions about your corporate assets, taxes, cash flow, and legacy.Discover which phase of wealth creation you are in.

This episode explores how Canadian entrepreneur finance decisions such as salary vs dividends Canada, RRSP optimization, optimizing RRSP room, passive income planning, tax-efficient investing, and corporation investment strategies can affect cash flow, net worth, and long-term wealth. Through real business-owner examples, you'll see why corporate structure optimization, capital gains strategy, Canadian tax strategies, financial diversification Canada, and estate planning Canada should be considered as parts of a larger financial system rather than isolated tactics. Whether your priorities include financial freedom Canada, financial independence Canada, retirement planning tools, financial buckets, an investment bucket strategy, or building long-term wealth Canada, the goal is to create financial strategies that align corporate and personal assets with your lifestyle and legacy objectives.

When a nonprofit grows faster than its structure, things start to break. Decisions slow down, roles blur, and good people get worn out. Most leaders assume it's a people problem. It usually isn't.Tosha Anderson talks with Dee Benno, VP of People and Operations at the Air Conditioning Contractors of America, about leading through the messy middle of nonprofit growth.

The latest episode of the Engineers Collective is out now. This month's guest is Ayming associate director Ben Craig. He told New Civil Engineer news editor Lee Kenny how geopolitical and economic uncertainty has increased businesses' commitment to innovation across the construction and engineering sectors. His comments followed the publication of Ayming's International Innovation Barometer 2027, which found that 97% of businesses are experiencing pressure from geopolitical developments. Ayming surveyed 850 research and development (R&D) and innovation directors, chief financial officers, chief executive officers and chief technical officers across 17 countries in June. The survey covered 10 sectors, including civil engineering and construction. Within the construction and engineering sector, Craig identified energy costs and materials as two of the main effects of geopolitical events. “Energy costs have been particularly volatile over the last couple of years as a result of things like the war in Iran,” he said. “On materials, there have been various conflicts and trade tariffs and so on that are affecting companies. They need to adapt to both the supply and the cost of the materials that are available to them.” Craig said major projects were particularly affected by these pressures because of their scale and lead times. “Decisions that were made five, 10, 15 years ago are suddenly coming into question as a result of more recent events that couldn't really have been anticipated when those decisions were first made,” he said. The interview explored what these pressures mean on the ground for major infrastructure projects, including the implications for materials, energy, labour and project delivery.

What makes someone give a kidney to a complete stranger? In this episode of the State of Mind Mental Health Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Matt Harmody, a retired emergency physician, living kidney donor, and author of Ascending America. Matt walks me through leaving a stable engineering career at 30 before he had a single medical school acceptance, and what 25 years in the ER taught him about protecting his "empathy well" so compassion fatigue and burnout don't win. Then we get into the heart of it: his father's kidney failure, years on dialysis, and his refusal to let anyone in the family donate. In 2017, Matt decided that if he couldn't help his father, he could at least help someone else. I asked him about the pushback he got (including a colleague who asked why anyone would give up a perfectly good kidney), the hard conversations with his wife, what life with one kidney is actually like, and how he ran a 100K trail race four months after surgery. We also talk about end-of-life choices, the right to refuse treatment, medical assistance in dying, and how his faith holds up after decades of seeing suffering. This one is about courage, big decisions that just feel right, and making a difference in someone's life.

Leading microbial ecologist from UC San Diego, Dr. Jack Gilbert joins us to talk about how soil and management decisions shape the vine and wine microbiome. We start by defining what a microbiome is in plain vineyard terms, and Dr. Gilbert explains how vines "select" specific microbes from the surrounding soil to support nutrient uptake, stress tolerance, and overall vine health. We then walk through Dr. Gilbert's Merlot study that showed roughly 95% of the vine microbiome originates from the soil, and we discuss how these early microbial reactions can influence wine character before commercial yeast ever goes in. The conversation then turns to real-world vineyard practices. We cover how herbicides, tillage, compaction, and inputs can suppress or reshape soil biology.  Listeners also hear about emerging work at the UCSD Soil Health Center, including using soil "prebiotics" and "probiotics" together and developing digital twins of vineyards to time interventions more precisely.  In this episode, you will hear: Vines actively recruit microbes from the soil to support health, nutrient uptake, and stress tolerance Around 95% of the grapevine microbiome can be traced back to the soil where the vine is planted Early-stage fermentation on the fruit is influenced by native microbes, which can affect wine aroma and flavor Herbicides, pesticides, and heavy soil disturbance can suppress beneficial microbes and reduce soil function for years Building soil biology with organic matter, thoughtful inputs, and microbiome-aware practices can improve vine resilience and fruit quality Follow and Review: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to follow the podcast and leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts!

This week on Financial Planning: Explained, host Michael Menninger, CFP®, welcomes back Nick DeVito, CFP®, for a practical Cash Management Q&A covering several important questions investors and homeowners may face when deciding how to manage their cash, debt, and investments. Cash management is an important part of a comprehensive financial plan. Decisions about where to keep cash, how much liquidity to maintain, whether to use a home equity line of credit (HELOC), and whether to pay down debt or invest can all have an impact on a person's broader financial strategy. In this episode, Mike and Nick answer real-world questions about HELOCs, Treasury Bills, money market funds, debt payoff, and investing. They discuss how these different financial tools work, what factors investors should consider, and why the right approach can depend on an individual's overall financial situation. The conversation focuses on how to evaluate cash management decisions within the context of a broader financial plan rather than looking at any one account, investment, or debt in isolation. In this episode, you'll learn about: What cash management is and why it matters How a HELOC (Home Equity Line of Credit) works Important considerations when using a HELOC How Treasury Bills (T-Bills) work How Treasury Bills compare with money market funds Key differences between T-Bills and money market funds Factors to consider when deciding where to hold cash How liquidity and accessibility can influence cash management decisions Whether paying off debt or investing may make sense in different circumstances How interest rates can affect the debt payoff vs. investing decision The importance of understanding your borrowing costs How risk, liquidity, and expected returns factor into financial decisions Why there isn't a single cash management strategy that works for everyone How cash management fits into a comprehensive financial plan Questions to ask before making decisions about cash, debt, and investments One of the most important considerations when evaluating cash management strategies is that there isn't a single solution that applies to everyone. The appropriate approach can depend on factors such as interest rates, debt balances, available cash, liquidity needs, investment objectives, risk tolerance, tax considerations, and an individual's broader financial circumstances. Mike and Nick use these questions to demonstrate how financial planners can evaluate different options and determine how they fit within an overall financial strategy. Rather than looking at cash, debt, or investments independently, the discussion highlights the importance of understanding how these decisions interact with one another.

Trust is at the heart of every strong professional relationship, but it isn't built overnight. It takes time, intention, and a willingness to invest in people long before you know what the payoff might be. In this episode of the Inspire Podcast, Bart speaks with Jordan Kajfasz, Vice President of Intermodal Sales and Marketing at CPKC, about how to intentionally build relationships rooted in trust. Drawing on his career at Maersk, the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority, and CPKC, Jordan shares how putting relationships first helped him build a global network and ultimately create significant opportunities throughout his career. Jordan explains what it means to earn the right to be trusted, why asking “How can I help?” can be so powerful, and how to strengthen relationships over time. He also explores what it takes to maintain trust once you've earned it, especially when things don't go according to plan. Finally, Jordan and Bart discuss how relationship building has changed since COVID and in an increasingly digital and AI-driven world. While email, text, and video make communication easier, Jordan argues that nothing replaces genuine human interaction when it comes to building trust.

In The Loop gets ready for the Astros' AL Wild Card Series and asks a pretty simple question: if this series comes down to managerial decisions, how do you feel about Houston's chances? In a best-of-three where every pitching change, lineup decision and late-game move gets magnified, how much trust do you have in Joe Espada pushing the right buttons? Houston enters the series against the White Sox planning a bullpen game in Game 1, making those decisions even more important.Then Figgy's Mixtape takes over with someone crashing into a store because they desperately needed to use the bathroom, a group of first graders grilling their teacher after she announces she's getting married, and more.

Troy and Bruce get into a discussion about decisions and the results of them.

The biggest financial shifts in my business didn't come from finding a better marketing tactic. They came from making decisions that changed what I sold, what I was willing to charge, how much I was willing to invest, and how dependent the business was on me personally.Building a profitable lifestyle business has required me to stop selling my time, stop playing small, and eventually stop doing everything myself. Those decisions allowed me to make more money while moving closer to the role and the life I actually wanted. Sometimes the next stage of business growth requires a different strategy. Sometimes it requires a completely different decision about how you want to operate.Links to Connect:Media & speaking: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://kadysandel.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My skincare branding studio: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://aventivestudio.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For designers: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://aventiveacademy.com/profit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/kadysandel/⁠

Twelve years ago, George drove six and a half hours to volunteer inside a maximum security prison in the California desert.He walked in stressed about a business problem. He walked out standing on a blue line alongside a man serving a life sentence: a man with nearly the same story, just different circumstances.That day broke something open. This episode is the implementation guide for it.This is the follow-up to Episode 736 with Lucy Cullen. George pulls three distinct frameworks from that conversation and turns them into a practical guide: how to predecide your identity before bias hits, how to use your why as a filter for good opportunities, and what unconditional positive regard actually costs when you skip it.What You'll Learn In This Episode:Why you have to decide who you are before the room does, not inside itHow to navigate bias without just developing a thick skinThe decision filter: using your why to evaluate opportunities, not just threatsWhat unconditional positive regard actually is and why it starts before you meet anyoneThe blue line exercise from the prison program and what it revealedThree scripture passages that anchor all three frameworksKey Takeaways:✔️If you do not decide who you are in advance, the next room, person, or meeting will decide for you. Then you spend the rest of that interaction reacting to a judgment made in three seconds.✔️Pre-deciding identity is not about confidence. Confidence wavers. Identity is the thing you return to when confidence is gone.✔️Your why is not only a filter for threats. It is also a filter for good opportunities that are not right for you right now. Chasing the aligned but untimely thing still costs you the thing that actually matters.✔️Name the bias before it hits. Decide what you will tolerate, what your boundary is, and exactly what you will do if that situation arises. Then you are executing a pre-made decision, not improvising under pressure.✔️Unconditional positive regard is not agreement and not excusing harm. It is a decision you make before you ever meet someone. You decide that everyone is doing the best they can with what they have, as a default, in advance.✔️The practice is hardest with the small stuff. Grace for the person who cut you off in traffic is the actual rep.✔️One decision made three times: who you are before the world decides, what matters before the good opportunity decides, and how you will see others before their worst moment decides.Timestamps & Highlights:[00:00] — The prison, the blue line, and the man with the same story[01:42] — What Lucy taught George about being underestimated on repeat[06:00] — Part 1: Predecide your identity before bias hits[12:00] — Why this is not about confidence[15:00] — How to install it: name the obstacle before it arrives[20:00] — Part 2: Your why as a decision filter for good opportunities[25:00] — The blue line exercise and what it revealed[28:00] — Part 3: Unconditional positive regard[32:00] — You do not decide in the room.

Peak somatic experiences can create profound shifts in awareness, emotion, and perception—but intensity alone does not create healing. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof explore why preparation, nervous system capacity, and integration matter far more than the intensity of any psychedelic or peak somatic experience. Through the lens of Neurosomatic Intelligence (NSI), they explain how psychedelics influence neuroplasticity, emotional processing, interoception, and implicit memory while also addressing the often-overlooked risks for individuals living with complex trauma, chronic dissociation, or nervous system dysregulation. Rather than promoting psychedelic experiences as a universal solution, this conversation offers a trauma-informed perspective on who may benefit, who should proceed with caution, and why lasting transformation happens after the experience—not during it. Whether you're curious about psychedelic healing, preparing for a peak somatic experience, or simply wanting to better understand how trauma is stored and processed in the body, this episode provides a balanced, neuroscience-informed foundation. In This Episode What defines a peak somatic experience through the lens of Neurosomatic Intelligence How psychedelics influence neuroplasticity and brain function Why increased neuroplasticity can strengthen both helpful and unhelpful patterns The role of the Default Mode Network in psychedelic experiences How trauma changes emotional processing and implicit memory Why somatic memories may emerge without conscious recollection The relationship between interoception, embodiment, and healing Why complex trauma and chronic dissociation require additional caution How preparation increases nervous system capacity before a psychedelic experience Why integration—not intensity—is what creates lasting change The importance of working with trauma-informed practitioners Why "more medicine" is not always more therapeutic How emotional breakthroughs become lasting nervous system change The collective responsibility of healing beyond individual transformation Featured in This Episode

It's one thing to decide you want to save more money. It's one thing to decide you want to stop overspending, pay off debt, stick to your budget, build your emergency fund, invest consistently, or become more intentional with your spending. It's another thing entirely to keep honoring that decision when real life shows up. When work gets stressful. When you're tired. When your friends invite you out. When your favorite store is having a sale. When the fresh-start energy wears off and you simply don't feel like making the responsible choice. That's where lasting financial change actually happens. Not in the decision itself, but in the follow-through. In this episode, I'm sharing six ways to make your money decisions stick long term without requiring perfection, cutting out everything you enjoy, or turning your budget into a punishment plan.  Because making a financial decision is only the beginning. If you want that decision to become a lasting habit, you need a plan designed to support it in your real life.   In this episode, we discuss: Why making a money decision isn't the same as designing a system to support it How to make saving, spending less, and sticking to your budget easier to follow through on Why your real priorities need to be reflected in your financial decisions How knowing what you value makes financial tradeoffs feel less restrictive Why I keep iced coffee in my budget, and willingly make tradeoffs elsewhere How to turn vague financial goals into specific actions you can actually follow Why mapping out your money by paycheck can make financial decisions clearer How regular reviews and adjustments help your money plan work through changing seasons Why consistency doesn't mean doing the exact same thing forever How to recover quickly after overspending or getting off track Why small promises kept to yourself can rebuild financial self-trust   This episode is especially helpful if you: Make good financial decisions but struggle to follow through consistently Keep restarting your budget or financial goals Want to stop overspending without feeling overly restricted Know what you want to change with your money but aren't sure how to make it stick Tend to abandon your plan after one mistake or unplanned purchase Want to feel more confident trusting yourself with money   Why this matters: Making the decision is often the easiest part. The harder (and more important) work is creating a financial life that makes following through on that decision realistic. That's why a decision to save more needs a savings system behind it. A decision to spend less may need new boundaries or a different environment. A decision to stick to your budget needs regular check-ins. And any financial plan you create needs enough flexibility to adjust when your life changes. Your decisions also need to reflect what you genuinely value. Because long-term money management isn't about proving how much you can deny yourself. It's about knowing which tradeoffs are worth making so your money can support the priorities that matter most to you. And when something doesn't go according to plan, you don't need to punish yourself or throw everything away. You review. You adjust. You make the next best decision. That's how consistency becomes sustainable, and how you start trusting yourself to follow through.   Timestamps: [03:27] You have to ask, "What needs to be true for this decision to be easier to keep?" That question changes the game. [08:06] Raya doesn't follow someone else's version of what a "good budget" should look like. She's not cutting out something just to look more disciplined on paper. [11:51] Mapping out your money by pay period is a common practice for Raya and her clients because it makes money management less overwhelming. [16:50] The goal is not to never get off track. The goal is to not stay off track. That is how your decisions start to stick long term.   Resources Mentioned: Listen to CGS Podcast #70 – My Budget Non-Negotiables Request a free money call with Raya City Girl Savings Personal Finance Portfolio Financial Focus Coaching Program   If you've made a money decision that you haven't been able to maintain, don't automatically assume the decision was wrong, or that you're incapable of following through. Look at the design around it. What needs to change to make that decision easier to honor in your actual life? Maybe the goal needs to become more specific. Maybe you need an automatic transfer, a weekly money check-in, or a realistic spending category for something you genuinely enjoy. Maybe you need to adjust the timeline. Or maybe you simply need a plan for what you'll do the next time you get off track. Remember, the goal isn't to never make a mistake. It's to not let one mistake become a reason to abandon everything you've been building. Come back to the next best decision. Every time you follow through on a small promise to yourself, you're building evidence that you can trust yourself with money. And over time, those individual decisions become habits. Those habits become systems. And those systems become part of how you manage your money. That's how lasting change happens. Not through one perfect financial decision, but through continuing to show up for the decisions that matter to you. You are not behind! You are building. Consistency compounds. The steady work you're doing now is preparing you for your next level.

We have more financial information available to us than ever before, yet knowing what to do and actually doing it are two different things. And with so much attention on financial independence and retiring early, better known as F.I.R.E., it's worth talking about what financial freedom really means and what it takes to get there. In this episode, Paula Pant and I talk about what sparked her own financial journey, why people struggle to make good financial decisions, what people get right and wrong about F.I.R.E., and the everyday actions that can help us build financial success. We also have a little fun with a would-you-rather question that involves giving up some serious privacy.

How do you make a godly decision when faced with a choice? What does the Word say about how to make godly decisions? This podcast includes prophetic messages for TWO unknown listeners.   Illustration:  Gratisography, used with permission.  

Episode Description:A good outcome does not necessarily mean you made a good decision.And a bad outcome does not necessarily mean you made a bad one.That distinction is at the heart of James's conversation with Annie Duke, former professional poker player and author of Thinking in Bets: Making Smarter Decisions When You Don't Have All the Facts.Poker gave Annie an unusually intense laboratory for studying uncertainty. You can make exactly the right decision and lose money. You can make a terrible decision and win. If you judge yourself only by the result, you may reinforce bad habits, discard good strategies, and learn the wrong lesson entirely.James connects this immediately to business, investing, comedy, relationships, and his own experience selling a company during the dot-com boom. When things work out, people naturally want to take credit. When things go badly, they naturally want to blame luck.Both reactions interfere with learning.Annie argues that one of the most valuable skills is learning to separate what you controlled from what you did not. Instead of asking only, “Did I win?” ask whether the process that produced the result was sound.The conversation then becomes an exploration of how to learn faster.Annie says one of the best shortcuts is to “borrow other people's 10,000 hours.” When she entered professional poker, her brother had already spent years around players like Erik Seidel and Dan Harrington. Instead of rediscovering everything through expensive trial and error, Annie entered a community that had already spent thousands of hours thinking about the game.But being around experts is not enough.You have to know how to talk to them. You have to communicate the relevant details. You have to remove the outcome when asking for advice so it does not bias the conversation. And you have to find people willing to challenge you instead of simply confirming what you already believe.Annie describes three essential commitments for a strong decision-making group: a commitment to accuracy, accountability for your beliefs, and openness to dissent.James and Annie also explore the role of teaching. Annie says her own poker game changed dramatically once she had to explain her strategies to students. If you cannot clearly explain why you believe something, you may not understand it nearly as well as you think.The second half of the episode turns toward practical decision-making.Annie explains mental time travel: instead of allowing the emotion of the present moment to dominate a decision, imagine how your future self will view it. A $100 gambling win can feel terrible if you were previously up $2,000, while a $100 loss can feel great if you were previously down $2,000. But one year later, you would simply prefer the $100 win.Perspective changes the decision.James adds his own variation: “situation traveling.” If he cannot see a personal problem clearly, he asks what advice he would give his daughter or how he would handle the same situation in business.They also discuss pre-mortems, negative visualization, planning for obstacles, parenting, “yes, and,” self-serving bias, echo chambers, and the value of saying “I'm not sure.”For Annie, uncertainty is not weakness.It is the beginning of curiosity.And curiosity is what makes learning possible.Editorial Note:This is a From the Archive episode originally centered on the 2018 release of Thinking in Bets: Making Smarter Decisions When You Don't Have All the Facts. Annie has since published How to Decide and Quit: The Power of Knowing When to Walk Away.The episode uses Nate Silver's 2016 U.S. presidential-election forecast to illustrate probabilistic thinking. FiveThirtyEight's final forecast gave Hillary Clinton roughly a 71% chance and Donald Trump roughly a 29% chance—meaning a Trump victory was less likely in the model, but far from a zero-probability event.What You'll Learn:Why a good outcome does not prove that you made a good decision.Why bad luck can follow a strong decision—and good luck can reward a bad one.Why winning can sometimes make learning harder than losing.How ego interferes with honest feedback.What temporal discounting does to decision-making.Why people prefer certainty even when certainty is impossible.How to “borrow” another person's 10,000 hours.Why community can dramatically accelerate learning.How experts know which details actually matter.Why teaching something can expose weaknesses in your own understanding.How to separate signal from noise when evaluating feedback.Why you should often hide the outcome when asking someone to evaluate a decision.The difference between wanting to be right and wanting to be accurate.Why accountability improves decision quality.How disagreement can make a learning group stronger instead of weaker.Why peer groups can become dangerous echo chambers.How to plan for future obstacles before they appear.What Annie means by mental time travel.How James uses “situation traveling” to make emotionally difficult decisions.Why changing your definition of “winning” can change your behavior.Why Annie deliberately dropped down in stakes when learning a new poker game.How saying “I'm not sure” creates hunger for new information.Why experts tend to be more aware of the limits of their own knowledge.How “yes, and” can help someone reconsider a belief without triggering defensiveness.Why improving your learning process even slightly can compound into enormous gains.Timestamped Chapters:[03:03] Thinking in BetsJames introduces Annie and her framework for making decisions when you do not have all the facts.[05:16] Luck, Skill, and the Stories We Tell OurselvesJames remembers selling a company during the dot-com boom and mistaking a fortunate outcome for evidence that he was a genius.[07:36] Why It's Hard to Learn From WinningAnnie and James discuss the tendency to stop examining your performance when the outcome was good.[09:16] Ego and Temporal DiscountingAnnie explains why humans naturally take credit for good outcomes, blame bad ones on luck, and favor immediate emotional rewards.[11:18] Good Decisions Can FailThe conversation shifts from learning to decision-making and the importance of accepting uncertain outcomes.[13:01] Why We Pay to End UncertaintyJames and Annie discuss business deals, pensions, lotteries, and why people accept large discounts to get certainty now.[14:24] Workshopping the Book in Front of AudiencesAnnie explains how years of speaking helped her turn decision science into stories people could actually use.[17:03] Can You Hack the 10,000-Hour Rule?James asks how Annie went from graduate school to becoming one of the world's best poker players.[18:04] Borrow Someone Else's 10,000 HoursAnnie explains why learning from people who have already accumulated expertise can dramatically shorten your own learning curve.[19:57] The Poker Learning PodAnnie describes the community around her brother, including Erik Seidel and Dan Harrington, and how their thinking accelerated her development.[20:43] Experience Is Necessary, but Not SufficientAnnie argues that putting in hours is not enough; you have to know how to interpret feedback.[23:15] Finding the Right Learning CommunityEven if you cannot immediately surround yourself with world-class experts, Annie says you can identify people who are curious, calm, and committed to improvement.[25:06] Why Teaching Made Annie Better at PokerHaving to explain strategy to beginners forced Annie to discover assumptions she could not actually defend.[26:05] The Truth Can AtrophyAnnie uses John Stuart Mill to explain why even correct beliefs become weaker if you never have to defend them.[30:26] Experts, Peers, and BeginnersJames and Annie identify three valuable learning communities: people ahead of you, people alongside you, and people you can teach.[31:10] How Erik Seidel Taught Annie to ThinkAnnie remembers being told to stop describing a poker hand as “unlucky” and instead provide the details needed to analyze the decision.[33:16] Don't Tell Me How the Hand EndedAnnie explains why knowing an outcome can bias the advice someone gives you.[34:30] Why Headlines Invent ExplanationsJames compares outcome bias to financial headlines that explain a market move after it has already happened.[36:27] The Feedback LoopAnnie describes how expert advice, practice, and immediate feedback can dramatically accelerate learning.[38:50] Virtual Mentors Count TooBooks and other resources can give you access to expert thought processes even when you cannot know the expert personally.[39:31] Peer Groups vs. Echo ChambersAnnie explains why a group of peers is only useful if everyone is genuinely open to disagreement and new information.[43:23] Accuracy, Accountability, and DissentAnnie outlines the three commitments she believes make a strong decision-making group.[45:02] Bets as AccountabilityPutting odds on a belief forces you to clarify how confident you actually are.[47:17] Make the Decision Before the Market CrashesAnnie explains how predetermined rules and accountability partners can prevent emotional reactions from taking over.[48:36] Map the Mines Before You Step on ThemInstead of visualizing only a perfect future, Annie recommends identifying the obstacles and disappointments that could derail you.[50:43] The Backdoor Into an Expert CommunityJames uses Judd Apatow and podcasting to show how creating something can give you a reason to approach experts.[52:25] Start With Three PeopleAnnie explains why community does not need to begin with fame or a large audience.[53:55] Nate Silver and the Meaning of 30 PercentJames and Annie use probabilistic election forecasting to show why people routinely round uncertainty down to zero or up to certainty.[57:29] What Probabilities Are Actually ForAnnie explains how forecasts can help people decide where to spend their time, attention, or resources.[01:00:55] Mental Time TravelAnnie introduces a technique for escaping the emotional intensity of the present moment by asking how your future self will view the decision.[01:01:32] The Blackjack TestWinning $100 after being up $2,000 feels terrible; losing $100 after being down $2,000 feels great. A year later, the preference becomes obvious.[01:05:05] Have a Conversation With Your Future SelfAnnie describes using time travel with her children, while James introduces his own version: “situation traveling.”[01:06:10] A Community of Different Versions of YouJames and Annie expand the idea to future selves, situational selves, and counterfactual versions of yourself.[01:09:31] Redefining WinningInstead of defining winning by whether you made money, Annie suggests defining it by whether you learned.[01:12:00] Drop Down in Stakes to Learn FasterAnnie remembers moving from high-stakes Hold'em to tiny stud games because she cared more about learning the new game than protecting her status.[01:15:10] Be Open to DissentAnnie says disagreement is one of the most powerful accelerators of expertise.[01:15:52] The Power of “I'm Not Sure”Certainty shuts down curiosity. Annie argues that acknowledging uncertainty keeps you hungry for information.[01:19:11] Experts Know What They Don't KnowOne mark of expertise, Annie says, is greater awareness of the boundaries of your knowledge.[01:20:07] Decision-Making for ParentsAnnie explains how she redirects her children from blaming a bad test on the teacher toward planning what they can do next time.[01:22:00] “Yes, And” as a Decision ToolJames connects Annie's parenting strategy to improv: accept the current reality, then build forward from it.[01:23:10] David Letterman, Lauren Conrad, and Bad DissentAnnie explains why challenging someone directly can backfire when you have not agreed to that kind of conversation.[01:27:45] How Much Can You Really Hack 10,000 Hours?James asks how much faster deliberate learning can make someone an expert.[01:32:40] You Don't Have to Be Great at ThisAnnie says even modest improvements in recognizing learning opportunities can double how much you learn.[01:35:17] “Suck Less” and Let It CompoundSmall improvements shift the odds over time. Perfection is unnecessary; direction matters.[01:37:06] Thinking in BetsJames recommends the book and summarizes the conversation around uncertainty, community, self-compassion, and learning.[01:38:01] Ryan Holiday's Secret Influence on the BookAnnie explains how the structure of The Obstacle Is the Way and Ego Is the Enemy influenced the way she wrote Thinking in Bets.Additional Resources:Annie Duke — Official WebsiteAnnie Duke — BooksThinking in Bets — Penguin Random HouseHow to Decide — Penguin Random HouseQuit: The Power of Knowing When to Walk Away — Penguin Random HouseAnnie Duke — Alliance for Decision EducationSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
