Podcast appearances and mentions of Steve Jobs

In this episode, Aaron and I explore how AI is reshaping motivational content, from remixed clips of figures like Huberman and Dispenza to imagined mashups of Steve Jobs and Tony Robbins. We dive into the evolution of motivational media, questioning whether AI-enhanced messages empower or dilute the core message. Using stories like the Outdoor Boys' content remixing, we examine what this means for creators and consumers. The takeaway: motivation has gone digital, but action still matters most. Whether crafted by humans or algorithms, the real growth comes when we turn inspiration into effort and move beyond passive consumption into real-world application.--------- EPISODE CHAPTERS ---------(0:00:01) - Lessons and Implementation via AI(0:03:56) - Navigating Information in the Digital Age(0:17:51) - AI Recreates Inspirational Commencement Speech(0:31:47) - Building Habits and Motivation(0:35:35) - Exploring AI and Digital Influence(0:41:01) - Navigating Reality in Digital Era(0:49:14) - Implementing Lessons From Books and AISend us a text

Apple in China by Patrick McGee After struggling to build its products on three continents, Apple was lured by China's seemingly inexhaustible supply of cheap labor. Soon it was sending thousands of engineers across the Pacific, training millions of workers, and spending hundreds of billions of dollars to create the world's most sophisticated supply chain. These capabilities enabled Apple to build the 21st century's most iconic products—in staggering volume and for enormous profit. Without explicitly intending to, Apple built an advanced electronics industry within China, only to discover that its massive investments in technology upgrades had inadvertently given Beijing a power that could be weaponized. In Apple in China, journalist Patrick McGee draws on more than two hundred interviews with former executives and engineers, supplementing their stories with unreported meetings held by Steve Jobs, emails between top executives, and internal memos regarding threats from Chinese competition. The book highlights the unknown characters who were instrumental in Apple's ascent and who tried to forge a different path, including the Mormon missionary who established the Apple Store in China; the “Gang of Eight” executives tasked with placating Beijing; and an idealistic veteran whose hopes of improving the lives of factory workers were crushed by both Cupertino's operational demands and Xi Jinping's war on civil society. Apple in China is the sometimes disturbing and always revelatory story of how an outspoken, proud company that once praised “rebels” and “troublemakers”—the company that encouraged us all to “Think Different”—devolved into passively cooperating with a belligerent regime that increasingly controls its fate. The Good Father by Liam McIlvanney Gordon and Sarah Rutherford are normal, happy people with successful fulfilling lives. A son they adore, a house on the beach, a safe, friendly and honest community in a picture-postcard town on the Ayrshire coast. Until one day Bonnie the lab comes in from the beach alone. Their son Rory has just gone - the only trace left is a single black Adidas slider. Their lives don't fall apart immediately - while there's still hope (and no body) they can dig deep and try to carry on. Rather it's a process of abrasion, a wearing away of that happiness and normality; a slow degradation, a gradual breakdown - until they'll never be the people they were before. This sort of tragedy impacts a whole town - does the community still feel the same after? What are folk saying about you? Who are your friends? Who can you trust? When the worst thing has happened and you've lost everything, you either go under or you rebuild, start again. What could be worse than your child disappearing?

On her first day as CEO of PepsiCo, Indra Nooyi fired her general counsel. Then rehired him before dinner. It wasn't a stunt. It was a signal.  She ran a $200 billion empire the same way she ran her life: with surgical precision, uncompromising standards, and an allergy to corporate theater. But here's what separates this conversation from every other CEO interview: she tells you what her massive ambition cost her and her family. What it means to carry the hopes of millions who look like you. What happens when a strategy you bet your career on starts to crumble. She reveals her private system for tracking 400 rising stars inside of a corporate giant and the advice Steve Jobs gave her that changed everything.  If you've ever felt the pull between ambition and identity, this one's for you. Indra doesn't just talk about power. She shows what it costs.  Approximate timestamps: Subject to variation due to dynamically inserted ads: （03:53）Growing Up In India （11:07） Lessons From Working In Consulting （21:36） Being Direct As A Leader / Delivering A Message That Gets Heard （24:14） Developing Talent （26:42）How To Minimize Office Politics （32:56）Prioritizing Work / Finding Balance （37:30）Turnover After A CEO Change （42:10） CEO Vs Board Member （46:22）Implementable Change In A Company （48:17） Removing Friction Instead Of Using Force （48:34）How To Be A Good Board Member （49:47）Lessons From Amazon （51:36） Leading Through Crisis （55:18） Dealing With Activist Investors （59:13） Women As CEOS / Biases In The Workplace （01:00:42) Equality of Opportunity / How To Hire The Best （01:03:50）Bias In Performance Reviews （01:05:27）Almost Quitting PepsiCo （01:07:05）What I Learned From Steve Jobs （01:11:51）Lessons From Costco And Walmart （01:20:00）Secrets to PepsiCo Merchandising （01:21:01）Outsourcing Bottlers At PepsiCo Then Reversing The Decision （01:22:16）Making Decisions At A Multi-Billion Dollar Company （01:23:56）Lessons From Acquisitions （01:27:09) Traits Of A High Performing Employee （01:29:01） Remote Work Vs In Office Thanks to our sponsors for supporting this episode: NORDVPN: To get the best discount off your NordVPN plan go to ⁠⁠⁠nordvpn.com/KNOWLEDGEPROJECT⁠⁠.

Leslie Grandy, a seasoned executive with leadership roles at Apple, Amazon, Best Buy, and T-Mobile, discusses the underestimated nature of creative capability and how leaders can systematically cultivate it. Drawing from her early career in the film industry and later product leadership across Fortune 50 companies, she presents a grounded, practical perspective on how creativity functions in high-performance environments.   She outlines three foundational skills transferable across domains: enduring ambiguity with resilience, sustaining momentum in the absence of external validation, and solving unfamiliar problems with resourcefulness rather than prescribed playbooks. These competencies, shaped by years in unpredictable contexts, later enabled her to thrive in zero-to-one product environments at scale.   Grandy also offers insight into organizational enablers and constraints for creative velocity. She identifies cultures that treat creativity as the remit of all functions, not just design or strategy, as more adaptive and resilient. Conversely, she cautions against consensus-driven thinking and status quo bias, which she sees as systemic inhibitors. The most effective environments, she argues, reward structured risk-taking and integrate post-mortem learning with equal weight to successes.   Reflecting on her time reporting to Steve Jobs, Grandy explains the discipline of brand stewardship and decisiveness under uncertainty. Jobs' intolerance for diluted brand signals, whether in product UX or retail merchandising, was less a quirk and more an intentional design principle. She recounts how even small misalignments, such as offering engraving suggestions on iPods, were swiftly reversed to preserve narrative clarity.   The discussion also explores her recent book, Creative Velocity, and its guiding premise: creativity is not a fixed trait but a repeatable discipline. Through structured techniques like the generic parts technique and SCAMPER, she argues that anyone, including those outside “creative” job titles, can develop idea fluency and confidence. She emphasizes the role of generative AI as a tool for exploratory dialogue rather than one-shot answers, calling for greater patience and iterative engagement to unlock its full potential.   For senior leaders, this episode surfaces a precise question: Are you designing your organization to perform or to invent? And are you personally equipped to model the latter?   Get Leslie's book here: https://rb.gy/d5zr69 Creative Velocity: Propelling Breakthrough Ideas in the Age of Generative AI   Here are some free gifts for you:   Overall Approach Used in Well-Managed Strategy Studies free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/OverallApproach   McKinsey & BCG winning resume free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/resumepdf   Enjoying this episode?

Ever wonder why some podcasts spread like wildfire while others wither on the vine? Well, it turns out that a whopping 60 to 80% of podcasts are discovered through good old-fashioned word of mouth. Yeah, that means if your podcast isn't getting shared, there's a reason. So, what's the secret sauce that makes people hit that share button? In this episode, I research the world of shareable content — you know, the kind that makes your friends feel like they need to hear it. Spoiler alert: it's all about that emotional connection and delivering value. Plus, I'll throw in some advice on being a better podcaster and maybe even a better dad.

Are you an ambitious entrepreneur striving for business success, but secretly worrying about becoming a "phantom family member"? This episode of "Get Your Fill" tackles this pervasive dilemma head-on with Jim Sheils, a real estate expert and co-founder of 18 Summers, a family education service for driven professionals.

If you're a driven professional seeking to build wealth without sacrificing your most important relationships, this episode offers a refreshing perspective and actionable insights to help you achieve both financial independence and a rich family life.

Mark introduces us to his longtime friend and successful entrepreneur Anton Melchionda! Together they explore themes of personal impact, the journey of transformation, reflections on longevity, and the influence of technology on society. They discuss the importance of redefining one's life at the 'halfway point,' the lessons learned from the 2008 financial crisis, and the visionary role of Steve Jobs in shaping the tech landscape. The dialogue emphasizes the pursuit of happiness and the significance of mentorship and teaching in personal and professional growth. Takeaways Mitigate downside and create a margin of safety. Longevity allows for redefining one's purpose. Mentorship can be a fulfilling next step in one's career. Steve Jobs revolutionized technology with user-friendly interfaces. Pursuing happiness is a universal goal. Podcasting can be both a passion and a business. Personal experiences shape our understanding of commerce. You often don't know what you don't know until you experience it. Mentorship is mutually beneficial for both mentor and mentee. Reading isn't the only way to learn; there are many modalities. Dyslexia can impact learning but doesn't define intelligence. Finding purpose is a journey that evolves over time. Sharing knowledge can create a ripple effect of inspiration.

A Note from James:Michael Dell. Founder of Dell. I remember in college, hearing about this kid who was building computers in his dorm and making millions. I thought it was a myth. It wasn't. He's the real thing—and he just kept going.I wanted to understand what drove him, what it felt like to deal with Carl Icahn trying to wrestle his company from him, and what success feels like after decades of being in the game. Also: I had to ask why Dell didn't invent Google. That, plus how he's now thinking about AI, cancer, and what “focus” really means.Episode Description:James Altucher sits down with Michael Dell, founder and CEO of Dell Technologies, to trace the entire arc of Dell's career—from building computers in a college dorm room to defending his company against Carl Icahn and taking it private. In this candid conversation, Dell shares how early obsession with tech and business turned into a multibillion-dollar global enterprise, the lessons he's learned about leadership, and how he's positioning for the future with AI, cybersecurity, and gene tech on the horizon.This is more than a business story. It's about risk, conviction, reinvention—and knowing when to walk away from Steve Jobs.What You'll Learn:How Dell's dorm-room business scaled to $80,000/month before he even left collegeWhat Michael Dell really thought during his showdown with Carl IcahnWhy most big companies fail to innovate—and how to keep a startup mindsetHow Dell Technologies is preparing for the explosion in AI and edge computingWhat makes a good leader at the head of a $100 billion companyTimestamped Chapters:[00:00] James introduces Michael Dell and the origin story of Dell Computers[01:00] The economics of building PCs in the early 1980s[03:00] Winning state bids with a bike and a dorm room[05:00] Pressure to become a doctor—and the 10-day “intervention”[10:00] Meeting Steve Jobs and licensing DOS from Bill Gates[13:00] Dell's early B2B focus and international expansion[15:00] Going public and the Icahn showdown[18:00] How activist investors play poker with billion-dollar stakes[21:00] What focus really means in business[24:00] Defining leadership at global scale[26:00] Encouraging innovation inside massive companies[28:00] The failed Mac OS licensing deal[30:00] Philanthropy, education, and urban poverty[33:00] COVID lockdowns and a $100M response[35:00] The future of work and city migration[39:00] AI, edge computing, and exponential data[42:00] Gene editing, mRNA vaccines, and solving cancer[45:00] Blockchain in enterprise (no bitcoin on Dell's balance sheet—yet)[47:00] Why cybersecurity is an arms raceAdditional Resources:Play Nice But Win – Michael Dell's memoir (Amazon)Dell Technologies – Official websiteJudge rejects Icahn's move on Dell buyout – CT InsiderRichard Florida on the future of cities – Vital City NYC interviewWhat is CRISPR? – Broad InstituteHistory of MS‑DOS – WikipediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Bob Baxley is a design leader who has shaped products used by billions at Apple, Pinterest, Yahoo, and ThoughtSpot. During his eight years at Apple, he led design for the online store and the App Store, and witnessed the iPhone's transformative launch while working under Steve Jobs. A student of history turned software craftsman, Bob discovered his calling after exploring photography, filmmaking, and music, ultimately recognizing software as the most powerful creative medium of our time. Bob champions the moral obligation designers have to reduce frustration in people's daily digital interactions.What you'll learn:• Why design should report to engineering, not product• The “Beatles principle”—why the best products come from teams of 4 to 6, not 40 to 60• How to create design tenets vs. principles (with real examples)• The counterintuitive reason to delay drawing or prototyping as long as possible• Why software is fundamentally a medium, like film or music (not just a tool)• Why Bob “bounced off the culture” at Pinterest, and lessons from failure• The lunar landing story that teaches us about championing radical ideas• How to evaluate if a company truly values design before joining• The moral obligation of software makers to build great products—This entire episode is

Easily the laziest and dumbest episode yet. Heavy on the character work this week. I'm so sorry. Hey, it kills an hour, at least.

While at HP he was classically trained as an HP Product Manager during the 50 years that HP grew 20% a year. He was recruited by Apple to bring the first hard disk drive on a PC to market and later became the Apple 3 Business Unit Manager at the same level as Steve Jobs by heading the Apple 3 product line and providing the profits which helped fund the development of the Macintosh. He is the author of "Building Insanely Great Products," "Organizing and Managing Insanely Great Products," and the Wiley published "Successful Product Design and Management" all available now on Amazon plus Letters from My Hymie.

What if the secret to longevity isn't luck—but how you show up? In this episode, I sit down with someone I've been wanting to interview for a long time—actor and now wellness entrepreneur, Josh Duhamel. You've seen him in everything from Transformers to Las Vegas to his latest hit Ransom Canyon. But this conversation goes beyond the screen. It's about the truth behind staying relevant, thriving in your 40s and 50s, and what it really means to lead—whether that's in your home, on set, or in your company. Josh opens up about the moments of self-doubt early in his career, the grind he still embraces, and how testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) helped him regain not just his energy, but his edge. We got real about aging, fatherhood, emotional strength, and the quiet confidence that comes from people believing in you—not just loving you. There's a big difference between the two. And whether you're leading a team or raising a family, that distinction can change everything. We also talk about masculinity in today's world—the evolving definition of what it means to be a man, and how important it is to stay grounded in spiritual connection. Josh talked about his circle of men who hold space for honest, vulnerable conversation and how that's shaped the way he leads and lives. He's not afraid to let people know he needs them, and that simple truth might just be the unlock for building loyalty, excellence, and connection in your team. This episode isn't just about fame or fitness—it's about the values that sustain you: humility, work ethic, emotional intelligence, and the courage to evolve. Josh proves that longevity in any field is earned through consistency, intention, and the willingness to stay coachable—even when you've “made it.” Key Takeaways: Why being emotionally accessible is a strength, not a weakness How testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) helped Josh reclaim his drive The importance of belief—how it's more powerful than love in leadership Creating a work environment where everyone feels needed and valued Josh's definition of masculinity and the role spiritual connection plays in his life How leaders like Steve Jobs and Mark Wahlberg modeled greatness through humility and discipline Don't just listen—share this one with someone who needs to remember what showing up with purpose really looks like.

Fifteen years ago, Steve Jobs and Apple had just introduced the first iPad, Steve Ballmer’s Microsoft had been left for dead, and nerdy online bookseller Jeff Bezos was still getting Amazon settled into its South Lake Union HQ. That’s when we started this podcast. This week, we’re going back to 2010, revisiting clips from the earliest days of the show. We remember what was happening with Amazon, Microsoft, and Seattle’s startup scene, and try to wrap our heads around all the things that have changed since then. With GeekWire co-founders Todd Bishop and John Cook. Audio editing by Curt Milton. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I've read this interview probably 10 times. It's that good. Steve Jobs was 29 when the interview was published and with remarkable clarity of thought Steve explains the upcoming technological revolution, why the personal computer is the greatest tool humans have ever invented, how the computer compares to past inventions, why software needs to be simplified (You shouldn't have to read a novel to write a novel!) why the future is always exciting and unpredictable, what soul in the game looks like and why his competitors don't have any, why slightly insane people are the ones who make great products, the importance of questioning things and how doing so produces novel insights, why it's dangerous to have layers of middle management between the people running the company and the people doing the work, the importance of hiring troublemakers, why more people should aspire to be like Edwin Land, and how if he every leaves Apple he will always come back.

The petrochemical revolution gave us free energy—free mechanical energy, in this case. It changed the texture of society in most ways. This revolution, the information revolution, is a revolution of free energy as well, but of another kind: free intellectual energy. This revolution will dwarf the petrochemical revolution. We're on the forefront. A computer is the most incredible tool we've ever seen. It can be a writing tool, a communications center, a supercalculator, a planner, a filer and an artistic instrument all in one, just by being given new instructions, or software, to work from. There are no other tools that have the power and versatility of a computer. We have no idea how far it's going to go The hard part of what we're up against now is that people ask you about specifics and you can't tell them. A hundred years ago, if somebody had asked Alexander Graham Bell, “What are you going to be able to do with a telephone?” he wouldn't have been able to tell him the ways the telephone would affect the world. He didn't know that people would use the telephone to call up and find out what movies were playing that night or to order some groceries or call a relative on the other side of the globe. That is what Macintosh is all about. It's the first “telephone” of our industry. Ad campaigns are necessary for competition; IBM's ads are everywhere. But good PR educates people; that's all it is. You can't con people in this business. The products speak for themselves. We didn't build Mac for anybody else. We built it for ourselves. We were the group of people who were going to judge whether it was great or not. We weren't going to go out and do market research. We just wanted to build the best thing we could build. When you're a carpenter making a beautiful chest of drawers, you're not going to use a piece of plywood on the back, even though it faces the wall and nobody will ever see it. You'll know it's there, so you're going to use a beautiful piece of wood on the back. For you to sleep well at night, the aesthetic, the quality, has to be carried all the way through. The people in the Mac group wanted to build the greatest computer that has ever been seen.
