Every winter for 13 years between 1954 and 1966 the greatest sports cars as well as the greatest sports car drivers in the world would gather in the Bahamas for what may well have been the coolest racing event in history. 10 days of partying, racing, hanging out on the beach, and enjoying life with some of the world's greatest stars is just as awesome as you think it is. Racers like Stirling Moss, AJ Foyt, Mario Andretti, Phil Hill, Masten Gregory, Roger Penske, Carrol Shelby and others showed up year in and year out to battle for the money and glory in the world's coolest cars. The first ever 427 Cobra race car debuted at this event, Duntov brought the Gran Sport Corvettes, Ferrari, Porsche, and on and on it goes. The history is interesting, led by a tyrant named Red Crise the event was his idea and with a unique combo of an iron fist on one side and a velvet gloved Baronet's hand on the other, he made magic. This is the fantastic story of Bahamas Speed Week.
In honor of the Rolex 24 hour race at Daytona the is past weekend we have decided to re-release our conversation with Mario Andretti

Christopher McDougall wasn't even a runner when he came across the Tarahumara Indians of Mexico. He'd been told he was too big. He'd be better off guarding the President or riding a bike than running. But what he found not only changed his life, but those of thousands of runners across the globe. In 2009, Christopher published his now famous book on the Tarahumara, 'Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Super Athletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen'. Not only did it uncover the secrets of the Tarahumara, who could run incredible distances in super fast times, it opened up his eyes to a whole new way of running. Christopher has gone on to write two more masterpieces on running, 'Natural Born Heroes' and 'Running With Sherman'. But Running Tales wanted to find out a little bit more about the man behind the books that have inspired so many runners all over the world - and caused headaches among those in the big shoe companies. We spoke to Christopher about how his father both embarrassed and inspired him by running laps round his school and going on to run three hour 30 marathons while in his 60s, his life as a war correspondent, and what is it like running with donkeys... -------------------------------- Visit Christopher's website at https://www.chrismcdougall.com/ to find out more about his work and writing.

This episode focuses on the benefits of natural movement from minimalist shoes.It's useful for everyone, but kids on the spectrum seem to benefit even more.Our guest is Steven Sashen, Co-Founder and CEO of Xero Shoes.Steven shares the many ways minimalist footwear helps.It's a huge opportunity to establish a stronger foundation where the body is more aligned and regulated.Resulting in more calm, less stress, and better brain function.

Steven got back into sprinting after a 30-year break, at 45, and suffered repeated injuries over the next 2 years. When he ditched the shoes and started running barefoot, his gait changed, his injuries disappeared, and he became a Masters All-American Sprinter – one of the fastest men his age in the US (now 60+). After fashioning his own huarache-style sandals, he started getting compliments from people around town. A natural entrepreneur, Steven and his wife, Lena Phoenix, launched Xero Shoes in 2009. They bootstrapped the business from home, and since then, Xero Shoes has grown to a multi-million dollar company with more than 38 shoes, boots, and sandals. The co-founders appeared on Shark Tank in 2013 and turned down a $400K investment, and Xero Shoes has been listed on the Inc. 5000 for six consecutive years.https://xeroshoes.com/https://jointhemovementmovement.com/https://footweartruth.com/References in The Episode:The Brain That Changes Itself: Stories of Personal Triumph from the Frontiers of Brain Science by Norman DoidgeAnat Baniel MethodChi RunningBorn To Run: A Hidden Tribe, Superathletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen by Christopher McDougallBorn to Run 2: The Ultimate Training Guide by Christopher MacDougall & Eric OrtonShark Tank Episode with Xero ShoesAdditional Resources:Take The Quiz: What's YOUR Top Autism Parenting Blindspot?To learn more about Cass & Len, visit us at www.autismparentingsecrets.comBe sure to follow Cass & Len on InstagramIf you enjoyed this episode, share it with your friends.
Our guest today, Austin Meyer, is a documentarian, journalist, podcaster, and animal rights activist, giving a voice to those whose stories might not otherwise be heard. He's worked for HBO, The New York Times, and National Geographic, to name a few outlets, and his filmmaking has taken him to faraway places like India, Nepal, and Zambia, where Austin chose to adopt a plant-based diet. Austin is also a passionate ultrarunner. And on April 15th of this year, with a time of ten hours and seven minutes, Austin showed the world what a vegan athlete can accomplish by winning the Zion 100K Trail Race. This is a must-listen episode for anyone trying to achieve the improbable and for any naysayers claiming it can't be done on a plant-based diet! “I will say one of the interesting elements is that most of the ultra-athletes who I see when it comes to their nutrition game around race day will actually move towards my end of the spectrum when it comes to race day. Like most people aren't eating dairy, they're not having meat when it comes to this day where you need to perform, which is kind of an interesting element.” – Austin Meyer What we discuss in this episode: The major life changes Austin experienced that prompted him to adopt a plant-based diet. How he maintained a plant-based diet while living in a rural village in Zambia. How Austin transitioned to journalism and documentary filmmaking after playing soccer at Stanford. What he experienced and learned about himself in the first few years as an ultrarunner. What Austin eats and drinks while he's training and during a race. What he did differently to win the Zion 100K Trail Race. What Austin is doing to promote veganism. Austin's experiences working with two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Nicholas Kristof.

Get ready to be on the edge of your seat as I recount a close call that made me realize the dangers faced by female salespeople. I'll also share the thrilling experiences of being stranded on the roadside and hitching a ride in a sleeper car within a semi truck just to make it back to Nashville. And if that's not enough, I share the story of a major mistake I made when I agreed to be interviewed by a local newspaper reporter. Little did I know that the article would be published with the headline "Girl Makes Big Bucks Selling Books," right before I was scheduled to deliver my books in that very community the following week. I'll delve into how this innocent mistake could have potentially put me in danger and the lessons I learned from that experience. Stay tuned to hear the jaw-dropping details! But this episode isn't just about entertainment. I'll take a moment to reflect on the invaluable lessons I learned from these unforgettable encounters.

Joined today by runner, journalist and New York Times Best Selling Author, Christopher McDougall. Chris talks about growing up in Philly, moving out to Lancaster and then settling down in Hawaii. Chris tells me how he was recruited for crew during his basketball practice and how he parlayed that into rowing for Harvard. We hear how as a failed High School English teacher, he decided to backpack through Europe and before he knew it he was the Associated Press‘ war correspondent in Angola and the Congo. Chris and I open up about the importance of not holding in your feelings and what he saw in Rwanda that made him come back home to the States. We hear how a writing assignment about a Mexican pop star turned into him being immersed in the Tarahumara Tribe and eventually witnessing "The Greatest Race the World Has Ever Seen". As a first time author, Chris recalls checking the reviews on the book, how he starting selling the books himself and how he got booked on the Jon Stewart Show. Chris talks about his newest books "Born to Run 2: The Ultimate Running Training Guide", what we should expect with this sequel book and why every runner needs to get this book. I deep dive into the aspects of Chris' writing: how it was collaborating on this book with Eric Orton, adding sneaker and scientific talk smack in the middle of Born to Run, and the difficulty of writing about himself as the main character. From texting with Rick Rubin, running with the Amish, and just a great conversation with the voice of running, Christopher McDougall.

What I learned from reading Am I Being Too Subtle?: Straight Talk From a Business Rebel by Sam Zell.--Support Founders' sponsors: Tiny: The easiest way to sell your business. Quick and straightforward exits for Founders. andTegus is a search engine for business knowledge that's used by founders, investors, and executives. It's incredible what they're building. Try it for free by visiting Tegus.and Get 60 days free of Readwise. It is the best app I pay for. I couldn't make Founders without it. [6:37] I have an embedded sense of urgency. What I can't figure out is why so many other people don't have it.[6:50] I was willing to trade conformity for authenticity.[8:26] Problems are just opportunities in work clothes. —Henry J. Kaiser: Builder in the Modern American West by Mark Foster. (Founders #66)[9:36] Once I have formed my opinion, I have to trust my perspective enough to act on it. That means putting my own money behind it. My level of commitment is usually high. And I stay with my decision even when everyone is telling me I'm wrong, which happens a lot.[10:37] Long term relationships reflect the most important lesson imparted to me by my father. He taught me simply how to be. He often told me that nothing was more important than a man's honor. A good name. Reputation is your most important asset.[11:10] When I was younger my career competed with my role as a husband and father and my career often won.[11:37] Childhood does not allow itself to reconquered. — Leading By Design: The Ikea Story (Founders #104)[12:20] The personality types that stay in the game for as long as Sam has —and he's been in the game for 50 years — usually describe entrepreneurship as a calling and an obsession.[12:35] The great thing about entreprenuership is that you get to spend your time building something you enjoy. Most people don't get to do this. They are stuck in jobs they hate. I had the time of my life. —Sam Walton: Made In America by Sam Walton. (Founders #234)[13:29] Business is not a battle to be waged — it's a puzzle to be solved.[14:33] Optimize for irreverence.[16:54] Swimming Across by Andy S. Grove (Founders #159)[18:11] His family narrowly escapes the Holocaust: His train arrived at 2:00 p.m. It was a ten minute walk home and when he got there he told my mother to pack what she could carry; they were boarding the 4:00 train out that afternoon.[19:21] Every year for the rest of their lives they celebrated the date of their arrival with the toast to America. My sister and I grew up keenly aware of how fortunate we were to be in this country.[15:58] You've got to understand that the world is a hard place.[19:13] My tendency to go against conventional wisdom would later end up defining my career.[26:55] Sam Zell — Strategies for Investing, Dealmaking, and Grave Dancing on The Tim Ferriss Show[27:25] It just never occurred to me that I couldn't do it.[28:42] Indifference to rejection is a fundamental part of being an entrepreneur.[31:59] It was at this point in my career that I fully realized the value of tenacity. I just had to assume there was a way through any obstacle, and that I'd find it. This is perhaps my most fundamental principle of entrepreneurship, and to success in general.[33:44] Difference for the sake of it. —James Dyson Against The Odds: An Autobiography by James Dyson (Founders #200)[35:58] I was going to do what I love doing and I wasn't going to be encumbered by anyone else's rules.[40:35] What I find fascinating is just how many of these ideas that he got from a older, more experienced entrepreneur, that he used for the rest of his life.[41:36] Larry Ellison episodes:Softwar: An Intimate Portrait of Larry Ellison and Oracle by Matthew Symonds (Founders #124)The Billionaire and the Mechanic: How Larry Ellison and a Car Mechanic Teamed up to Win Sailing's Greatest Race, the America's Cup, Twice by Julian Guthrie (Founders #126)The Difference Between God and Larry Ellison: God Doesn't Think He's Larry Ellisonby Mike Wilson (Founders #127)[41:59] Like most oracles, Wasserman gave an opinion that was simple and sensible (but unambiguously presented, thank goodness). “It is not prudent,” replied Wasserman, “to ask people to change their nightly viewing habits. Once they are used to tuning in a given channel, they find it hard to make the move, no matter how good an alternative is being provided elsewhere.” Was that it? All of our thinking and talking and arguing and agonizing came down to the belief that Americans won't change the dial? Wasserman's advice sealed our decision.— Johnny Carson by Henry Bushkin. (Founders #183)[43:55] Zeckendorf: The autobiograpy of the man who played a real-life game of Monopoly and won the largest real estate empire in history by William Zeckendorf.[47:27] The captain of a Ludwig ship made the extravagant mistake of mailing in a report of several pages held together by a paper clip. He received a sharp rebuke: "We do not pay to send ironmongery by air mail!" — The Invisible Billionaire: Daniel Ludwig by Jerry Shields.[51:32] There's no substitute for limited competition. You can be a genius, but if there's a lot of competition, it won't matter. I've spent my career trying to avoid its destructive consequences.[52:32] Cable Cowboy: John Malone and the Rise of the Modern Cable Business by Mark Robichaux (Founders #268)[55:20] What do you do? I'm a professional opportunist.[59:31] A mantra that I would repeat regularly for decades to come: Liquidity equals value.[1:07:59] I have always believed that every day you choose to hold an asset, you are also choosing to buy it. Would I buy our buildings at the price Blackstone was quoting? Nope.[1:12:29] Fast decision making and autonomy had become like oxygen to him.—“I have listened to every episode released and look forward to every episode that comes out. The only criticism I would have is that after each podcast I usually want to buy the book because I am interested so my poor wallet suffers. ” — GarethBe like Gareth.

On today's episode of Onemoreandimouttahere.com, Dan starts the episode with his trademark phone ringing. We quickly move into NAMBLA, and our potential sponsorship. Then things get deep - we discuss the always popular BDSM topic of a Special Master, Taint and Gooch (thank you Sir William Gooch). We have to explain what it means to Dan, and it is a contentious debate. Fuck Fauci and the DOJ. Then we discuss a roadtrip again, this time with Pelosi's husband as our designated driver, and dem-privilege. Don't sell out blue collar middle class, please!!!!A story is told about green potatoes, and how they form a forest if left unattended, and don't stink until squished (like dog shit). We conclude the episode with a challenge - the Greatest Race has been reformulated. Dan v. Jason. Also, Dan reveals that he milked a bull and won a trophy doing so. Looking forward to the pictures (also, remember that if it has one udder, don't drink the milk). Download and listen. Sign up for onemoreandimouttahere.com. All your favorite shit is in here.

Like many of us, Seth Smiley used to pay little attention to his health symptoms. Diagnosed with ADHD at 16 and struggling with heartburn from college onwards, Seth believed he'd need over-the-counter meds his entire life. Still slim and training to compete as a long-distance runner, Seth had no reason to believe his underlying health issues were anything to worry about. It wasn't until early in Seth and Jen's marriage that Seth began exploring biohacking, anti-aging, and anything he could do to improve his running time, that the two discovered the power of diet changes. What started with vegetarian meals progressed into veganism and at some point, Jen's Wake Up moment with simple ingredients. In this episode, Seth talks with Jen about his life before clean eating, why men looking to bulk up need clean ingredients just like men hoping to lose weight, what Seth eats in a typical day, and why Seth ultimately decided to leave the law firm he built and join Jen full-time at Wake Up and Read the Labels!

[18:34] - How Jen and Seth's family reacted to their clean eating transformation. [21:20] - What workouts Seth prioritizes. [23:45] - Seth's Wake Up moment. Quotes [10:41] - “I was thin but I didn't know that I was inflamed. And so whenever [Jen] really started to dial-in on the clean eating and really had the wake-up moment about all the ingredients, that's when I weighed the same but my waist size just dropped, almost overnight.” ~ Seth Smiley [11:58] - “It's not a weight loss thing, it is a get your body to be the size it's supposed to be thing.” ~ Seth Smiley [12:30] - “Clean eating just allows you to feel better while you're trying to achieve those personal goals, whether it be [to] work out or your physical physique.” ~ Seth Smiley Links Seth Smiley Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Superathletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen by Christopher McDougall Vibram The Miracle Morning Bulletproof Coffee Vitamix How To Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill Dave Asprey The Bulletproof Blog The Upgrade Collective Lifespan Podcast with Dr. David Sinclair X3 Bar Elite Variable Resistance Training System TUMS* PEPCID AC* Connect with our host Jen on Instagram Jen on Facebook Wake Up and Read the Labels!

Christopher McDougall is the author of the acclaimed New York Times bestseller Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Superathletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen. McDougall's epic journey began with a persistent foot ailment that prevented him from running long distances. In his search for a remedy, he ended up in Mexico's Copper Canyons, where he lived with the reclusive Tarahumara Indians, the world's greatest distance runners. Able to run hundreds of miles without rest or injury, these barefoot runners seemed to know secrets that eluded McDougall in his own training. Although he had been told by doctors that he would never run again, McDougall was ultimately able to overcome his injury, find his own inner ultra-athlete, and join the tribe for the challenge of a lifetime, a 50-mile race through the canyons. With the publication of Born to Run, McDougall has been credited with sparking the biggest innovation in modern sportswear: the barefoot-running movement. He is an engaging and inspirational speaker who lectures on how he overcame the mental and physical challenges of being an athlete, all while partaking in the adventure of a lifetime. His message resonates with anyone facing a challenge, and, consequently, he speaks to diverse groups, from university students to fitness enthusiasts and corporate executives. McDougall earned his bachelor's degree from Harvard University. A former war correspondent for the Associated Press, McDougall is a three-time National Magazine Award finalist. He is also the author of Natural Born Heroes: Mastering the Lost Secrets of Strength and Endurance and Running with Sherman: The Donkey with the Heart of a Hero (October 2019). He does his own running in rural Pennsylvania, where he lives with his wife and two daughters. If you have been struggling with running related injuries lately, you don't want to miss this episode. Did you know that according to statistics, somewhere between 30 to 75% of runners are hurt annually. That's a huge number of injuries. Some possible explanations might be modern running shoes to stretching. Running frequency, weight biomechanical misalignment. And or Muslim balance. During this interview. Chris share some simple solutions that can help you restore your body and get you running again. Injury-free. Support the show

The greatest day in racing (the Sunday before Memorial Day) was that and more for the Let's Go Racing Family because we experienced the Coca Cola 600 in person for the first time. We had unprecedented access for our family - pit road, garage and haulers, the infield and finally getting to watch from high atop the Charlotte Motor Speedway in a Suite. Let's just say this will be a #NASCAR experience we will never forget. In this extended episode, we recorded on-location, just outside Turn 2 and discuss our first-hand experience of the event and also preview our coming week in Charlotte - highlighted with a visit to the NASCAR Hall of Fame and Race Team Shops. #LetsGoRacingFamilyPodcast #NASCARpodcast #FamilyPodcast #LetsGoRacingFamily #RacingPodcast #RacingThroughLife #RacePicks #6DegreesofNASCAR #IamNASCAR #NASCARKidsAs always, don't forget to send us your questions or comments: Letsgoracingfamily@gmail.comConnect with the Let's Go Racing Family:Subscribe to the Let's Go Racing Family audio PODCAST: https://www.letsgoracing.family/listen Visit the Let's Go Racing Family WEBSITE: https://letsgoracing.familyLike Let's Go Racing Family on FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/LetsGoRacingFamilyFollow Let's Go Racing Family on X: https://x.com/letsgoracingfam Follow Let's Go Racing Family on INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/letsgoracingfamily/

Tap into eons of knowledge and experiences, condensed into digestible portions. Highly, highly recommend. “Uniquely outstanding. No fluff and all substance. David does an outstanding job summarizing these biographies and hones in on the elements that make his subjects so unique among entrepreneurs. I particularly enjoy that he focuses on both the founder's positive and negative characteristics as a way of highlighting things to mimic and avoid.”“I just paid for my first premium podcast subscription for Founders podcast. Learning from those who came before us is one of the highest value ways to invest time. David does his homework and exponentially improves my efficiency by focusing on the most valuable lessons.”“I haven't found a better return on my time and money than your podcast for inspiration and time-tested wisdom to help me on my journey.“I've now listened to every episode. From this knowledge I've doubled my business to $500k a year. Love your passion and recommend your podcast to everyone.”“Founders is the only podcast I pay for and it's worth 100x the cost.”“I have listened to many podcasts on entrepreneurship (HIBT, Masters of Scale, etc.) and find Founders to be consistently more helpful than any other entrepreneurship podcast. David is a craftsperson, he carefully reads biographies of founders, distills the most important anecdotes and themes from their life, and draws commonalities across lives. David's focus is rightfully not on teaching you a formula to succeed but on constantly pushing you to think different.”“I highly highly recommend this podcast. Holy cow. I've been binge listening to these and you start to see patterns across all these incredible humans.”Listening to your podcast has changed my life and that is not a statement I make often.“After one episode I quickly joined the Misfit feed. Love the insight and thoughts shared along the way. David loves what he does and it shines through on the podcast. Definitely my go-to podcast now.”“It is worth every penny. I cannot put into words how fantastic this podcast is. Just stop reading this and get the full access.”“Personally it's one of my top 3 favorite podcasts. If you're into business and startups and technology, this is for you. David covers good books and I've come to really appreciate his perspective. Can't say enough good things.”“I quickly subscribed and it's honestly been the best money I've spent all year. It has inspired me to read biographies. Highly recommend.”“This is the most inspirational and best business podcast out there. David has inspired me to focus on biographies rather than general business books. I'm addicted.”“Anyone interested in business must find the time to listen to each any every Founders podcast. A high return on investment will be a virtual certainty. Subscribe and start listening as soon as possible.”“David saves you hundreds of hours by summarizing bios of legendary business founders and providing valuable insight on what makes an individual successful. He has introduced me to many founders I would have never known existed.”“The podcasts offer spectacular lessons on life, human nature and business achievement. David's enthusiasm and personal thoughts bring me joy. My journey has been enhanced by his efforts.”"Founders is the best self investment that I've made in years."UPGRADE to gain access to every full length episode.

Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Superathletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen by Christopher McDougall The Alexander Technique: A Complete Course in How to Hold and Use Your Body for Maximum Energy by John Gray
Neil details his teaching method to keep his students engaged, entertained and inspired. Borrowed from a method found in Christopher McDougall's 2009 best-selling book, "Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Super Athletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen.", Neil has adapted it to his own guitar teaching and added in his own ingredient that guarantees a return student ; fun. KEY TAKEAWAYS Easy. Use simple ideas, shapes and forms that regenerate and repeat themselves. Keep things familiar and comfortable and eschew complexity for accessibility and ease. Light. Minimise physical effort. Position and comfort is key. Understand biomechanically correct technique. Smooth. Use a natural, soft style to lead towards a subtle mellifluous sound. Fast. After initial stages of easy routines learned to an automatic level the student will be able to achieve more speed. Fun. The underpinning of all of this. Use jokes and playfulness. Be relaxed, informal, encouraging and supportive. Use language that is fun. ‘Have a play around' instead of ‘Go and practice'. BEST MOMENTS ‘The idea originated with McDougall's running coach, a guy called Eric Orton. He got Chris running a 50 mile trail race in spite of his busted up legs and a string of running injuries.' ‘Cause if it ain't fun the student won't want to do it and I'll get fed up with teaching it because I get fed up with doing anything that isn't fun. There are better ways to spend my time and better ways for them to spend their time. Is that true or is it just true?' ‘You end up with sore fingers as well. The whole ‘playing ‘til your fingers bleed' is just moronic. It's a cliché propagated by idiots and drongos.' ‘However heinous an error, a misunderstanding actually is, I will try and figure out how it's a good thing. If they make a mistake, they've just figured out a cool way to not do something.'

In part 2 with Rick Houston we jump into the 1992 Hooters 500, arguably the best race in Cup history, which was the inspiration for his book "NASCAR's Greatest Race". We talked about the amazing run by Bill Elliott, Davey Allison overcoming multiple disasters, Alan Kulwicki and his improbable Championship, the last ride of Richard Petty, the rise of Jeff Gordon, along with the safety of NASCAR, and other awesome stories. This was a NASCAR conversation for the ages, and Rick couldn't have been more of an appropriate guest.

There's no bigger name in the sport of racing than Mario Andretti. Considered by many to be the greatest race car driver in the history of the sport. He's often listed among legends like Muhammad Ali and Michael Jordan. His achievements became legendary: The world watched as he won the Daytona 500, the Indianapolis 500 and ultimately the Formula One World Championship, an unprecedented trifecta. No other race car driver has ever won all three titles. Mario took the checkered flag 111 times during his career – a career that stretched five decades and across six continents. He was named Driver of the Century, he was knighted by his native Italy, and the Library of Congress in Washington DC added him to its Living Legends list. You may recognize his name and voice from the Pixar Movie Cars, or from GQ magazine where he was named one of "The 25 Coolest Athletes of All Time".
In this episode Dr. Amy discusses Christopher McDougall's book " Born To Run" and how his epic adventure began with one simple question: Why does my foot hurt?
In this episode, Melissa and Leah are joined by new mother, Ashlyn Rogers, a massage therapist, competitive runner, and tiny-house dweller. Ashlyn begins by sharing her and her husband's multi-year experience living in a 200-square-foot tiny house, including the discomfort of loft-entry while nine months pregnant, the stress of navigating life with a newborn while in close quarters, and also the value of having an intimate postpartum experience together as a new family. She also shares her journey as a runner, which changed significantly after becoming a mother. Factors such as lack of time and post-delivery recovery have made running a challenge, but its positive impact on her mental health has made it a necessity.The Book Blurb in this episode is from Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Superathletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen, a memoir by Christopher McDougall. For more about McDougall and to watch his TED Talk, click here.A few other noteworthy mentions include nonfiction book, Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle by Emily and Amelia Nagoski, a parenting course on supporting toddlers' social emotional development and emotional regulation created by Big Little Feelings, and Ashlyn's experience competing in the Audi Power of Four trail race in Aspen, Colorado.
What I learned from reading The Billionaire and the Mechanic: How Larry Ellison and a Car Mechanic Teamed up to Win Sailing's Greatest Race, the America's Cup, Twice by Julian Guthrie.[0:01] Larry Ellison to Steve Jobs: I'm talking about greatness, about taking a lever to the world and moving it. I'm not talking about moral perfection. I'm talking about people who changed the world the most during their lifetime.[0:56] Larry's choice for history's greatest person could not have been more different from Gandhi (Steve Jobs's choice): the military leader Napoleon Bonaparte. [3:15] Steve liked to say the Beatles were his management model — four guys who kept each other in check and produced something great.[3:47] Larry's favorite history book was Will and Ariel Durant's The Age of Napoleon, which he had read several times. Like his buddy Steve, and like Larry himself, Napoleon was an outsider who was told he would never amount to anything.[6:09] Now the book is technically about the America's Cup race. But that is not really what it is about. This books gives insights into extreme winners.[7:50] Steve and Larry had found they had much in common. They both had adoptive parents. Both considered their adoptive parents their real parents. Both were “OCD,” and both were antiauthoritarian. They shared a disdain for conventional wisdom and felt people too often equated obedience with intelligence. They never graduated from college, and Steve loved to boast that he'd left Reed College after just two weeks while it took others, including Larry and their rival Bill Gates, months or even years to drop out. [9:09] Steve Jobs: “Why do people buy art when they can make their own art?” Larry thought for a moment and replied, “Well , Steve , not everyone can make his own art. You can. It's a gift.”[10:46] What he (Steve Jobs) liked was designing and redesigning things to make them more useful and more beautiful.[11:02] If Michael Jordan sold enterprise software he would be Larry Ellison. Larry is addicted to winning.[12:38] An idea I learned from Steve was the further you get away from one the more complexity you are inviting in.[13:20] Larry was a voracious reader who spent a great deal of time studying science and technology, but his favorite subject was history. He learned more about human nature, management, and leadership by reading history than by reading books about business.[14:52] His adopted Dad said over and over again to Larry, “You are a loser. You are going to amount to nothing in life.”[15:19] Larry treats life like an adventure.[15:26] He envied how Graham's parents supported him on his adventure, as this was the opposite of his own life. The story of Graham transported Larry from the regimentation of high school to the adventure and freedom of the sea. Here was a boy alone at sea for weeks at a stretch; dealing with storms, circling sharks, and broken masts; visiting exotic locales. Through it all he was his own navigator.That is definitely the way Larry approached his life.[18:04] Why Larry uses competition as a way to test himself: He wanted to see just how much better a sailor he had become. It will be an interesting test. There was a clarity to be found in sports that couldn't be had in business. At Oracle he still wanted to beat the rivals IBM and Microsoft, but business was a marathon without end; there was always another quarter. In sports , the buzzer sounds and time runs out.[18:50] It is not what two groups do a like that matters. It's what they do differently that's liable to count. —Charles Kettering[22:20] Why test yourself: After the laughter died down Larry turned serious. “Why do we do these things? George Mallory said the reason he wanted to climb Everest was because ‘it's there.' I don't think so. I think Mallory was wrong. It's not because it's there. It's because we're there, and we wonder if we can do it.” [24:11] Larry's personality: He didn't like letting them have control. It was the same reason he didn't have a driver, and it was why he liked to pilot his own planes and why he had been married and divorced three times. He didn't like being told what he could and couldn't do.[26:04] With any new thing you do in your life, you are going to have to overcome people telling you that you are an idiot.[28:08] While Ellison demanded absolute loyalty, he did not always return it. The people he liked best were the ones who were doing something for him. The people he hired were all geniuses until the day they resigned—when in Ellison's view— they became idiots or worse.[29:44] What Larry is reading during the dot com bubble collapse: The books on his nightstand included Fate Is the Hunter: A Pilot's Memoir by Ernest Gann, The Jordan Rules by Sam Smith, and William Manchester's multivolume biography of Winston Churchill.[30:25] Whenever Larry felt remotely close to being at risk of failure he couldn't stop working. [30:58] I'm going to read you one of the funniest paragraphs I have ever read. The guy Larry is talking to is insane:In the dot—com heyday he got a call from Farzad Nazem, who used to work at Oracle and was now a top executive at Yahoo. Nazem told Larry, “Disney wants to merge with us. Why would we ever want to do something like that? What have they got?” Larry answered his old friend, “Gee , let me think. They have the most valuable film library in the world, the most valuable TV channels in world, and successful theme parks everywhere. Disney makes tons of money and they're probably the most beloved brand on the planet. Now, what have you got? A Web page with news on it and free e-mail. Has everyone gone crazy ?”[32:38] Oracle has been around for 40 years. How many companies can survive 40+ years?[33:00] One of the key insights I took away from Larry is this idea about game within a game. I'm glad I'm reading these books about Larry Ellison at the same time I watched this 10 part documentary on Michael Jordan (The Last Dance) because I think both Jordan and Ellison figured out something that is fundamental to our nature.I don't think hey were not setting out to try to figure out something fundamental about human nature. They did so in their own process of self discovery.They hack themselves by creating games within games.They understand over a long period of time that your motivations, your dedication, your discipline is going to ebb and flow and they had to find a way to hack themselves.[38:19] There is one sentence that sums up Larry's personality: “Winning. That is my idea of fun.”[38:38] There are a lot of extreme winners on Larry's team. That is one of the things I like most about the book. It gives you insights into their mindset, how they prepare for their sport—which I think is applicable to whatever you do for a living.[40:00] Dixon said, “Larry, my advice is that we go out there tomorrow to try to win the race. We will probably get beaten and you should be prepared to lose gracefully.” Larry was stunned by the suggestion. After a long pause, he said that he could be gracious after losing, but wasn't capable of being gracious while he was losing, he had come here to win.[42:00] The Vince Lombardi line Larry loves: Every team in the National Football League has has the talent necessary to win the championship. It's simply a matter of what you're willing to give up. Then Lombardi looked at them and said, I expect you to give up everything, and he left the room.[42:25] Give me human will and the intense desire to win, and it will trump talent every day of the week.[43:05] His lack of interest in marriage was not about fidelity, but had more to do with problems he had with authority. In marriage, he had to live a good part of his life the way the other person wanted him to live it. Larry wanted to live his life his way. This part reminds me of what we learned on the podcast I did on Frank Lloyd Wright.[44:17] His favorite Japanese saying was, “Your garden is not complete until there is nothing else you can take out of it.” [44:44] Rafael Nadal asked how Larry had made his life such a success. Larry launched into a long philosophical musing about how innovation in technology is quite often based on finding errors in conventional wisdom, and when you find an error you have to have the courage take a different approach even when everyone else says you're wrong. Then Larry abruptly stopped himself. “Forget everything I just said. The answer is simple. I never give up.” [46:09] He was incapable of waving the white flag.[46:24] Kobe Bryant: A young player should not be worried about his legacy. Wake up, identify your weakness and work on that. Go to sleep, wake up, and do that all over again. 20 years from now, you'll look back and see your legacy for yourself. That's life.[46:47] Larry is constantly willing to put himself in uncomfortable situations so he can improve.[49:00] One of Larry's favorite maxims was: “The brain's primary purpose is deception, and the primary person to be deceived is the owner.”[49:07] How does his favorite Maxim relate to why he likes sports? Because in sports, you can't deceive yourself. He just said the brain's primary purpose is to deceive yourself—so he needs to hack himself. He needs to have his game within a game, so he is incapable of deceiving himself. Larry liked having opponents, even enemies. “I learn a lot about myself when I compete against somebody. I measure myself by winning and losing. Every shot in basketball is clearly judged by an orange hoop — make or miss. The hoop makes it difficult to deceive yourself.”[49:56] The insight is if we do something really hard we won't have any competition.[52:26] The athletes Larry knew were obsessed with the game they played. They were like his friend Steve Jobs who worried about the color of the screws inside a computer.[53:12] They reminded Larry of a line from Tombstone: Wyatt Earp asks Doc Holliday,“ What makes a man like Ringo, Doc? What makes him do the things he does?” Doc replies, “A man like Ringo has got a great big hole, right in the middle of him. He can never kill enough, or steal enough, or inflict enough pain to ever fill it.” For better and worse, Larry had the same hole, and he tried to fill it by winning. But as soon as he closed in on one of his goals, he immediately set another difficult and distant goal. In that way, he kept moving the finish line just out of reach.[54:31] Back home, standing by the lake where he and Steve had debated things great and small, Larry was certain that decades from now there would be two guys walking somewhere, talking about their icons. Steve would be mentioned. He would be one of those “misfits, rebels, troublemakers, the round pegs in square holes, the ones who see things differently,” words popularized in Apple's “Think Different” ad campaign. Steve would be remembered as one of those with “no respect for the status quo.”[59:16] Those moments are my most cherished and enduring memories of my time with Steve. The four of us sitting together at Kona, eating papayas and laughing for no reason at all. I'll miss those times. Goodbye, Steve.[1:00:00] Larry's nightmare: In Larry's mind, it fed into a culture based on a homogenized egalitarian ethos where everyone was the same, where there are no winners and no losers, and where there are no more heroes.[1:02:21] Larry says something to Russell (the guy running his team). It echoes what Charles Kettering said last week: It is not what two people do the same that matters. It is what they do differently. Larry says, “You already have a job, Russell. You've got to figure out why we're so damn slow, our set another way. Why is New Zealand so fast? What are they doing that we're not?[1:03:08] Don't give up before you absolutely have to. Stay in problem solving mode: Larry was not happy when he heard that speeches were being written and plans being made for the handover of the Cup, but he ignored it all until he was asked to settle an argument over who was going to give the concession speech during the handover. “Let me get this straight: people are fighting over who gets to give the concession speech? I don't give a fuck who gives the concession speech. If we lose, everyone who wants to give a concession speech can give a concession speech. But we haven't lost yet. Why don't we focus on winning the next fucking race , rather than concession speeches.”Larry, a licensed commercial pilot with thousands of hours flying jets, likened their situation to a plane in distress. When pilots have a serious emergency, they immediately go into problem solving mode, and they stay in that mode until the problem is solved — or until just before impact. In that final moment, the aircraft's cockpit voice recorder captures the pilot's brief concession speech. There are two versions of the speech, one secular, one not: “Oh God ” and “ Oh shit.” Larry had not yet reached his “Oh God” or “Oh shit” moment. Down 8 points to 1, he remained in problem solving mode.[1:06:19] As Muhammad Ali once said, “It's just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I beat people up.” No one was going to live or die on the basis of these things. But contests were his best teachers. At some point, one person gets measured against another. They find out who wins and who doesn't, and along the way they learn something about themselves. Larry had learned that he loved the striving, the facing of setbacks, and the trying again. [1:07:56] It's hard for me to quit when I'm losing — and it's hard for me to quit when I'm winning. It's just hard for me to quit. I'm addicted to competing.—“I have listened to every episode released and look forward to every episode that comes out. The only criticism I would have is that after each podcast I usually want to buy the book because I am interested, so my poor wallet suffers.”— GarethBe like Gareth. Buy a book. It's good for you.
