“It wasn't about being better than others, it was being ourselves, and true to our ideals in our work.” That's just one of many gems from today's guest, Birch Coffee co-founder Paul Schlader, who says, “I don't accept anything less than absolute excellence.” In this conversation we talk about how he stands out in the New York City noise by hiring for kindness; getting bought out when the Gershwin Hotel closed and thereby ending the lease on their first location, then parlaying those funds into two new stores (and the growing pains that followed); and the moment he had to tell his entire team they were furloughed indefinitely when New York City delivered the shut-down order; losing four stores but bouncing back to 14 (when so many other coffee shops closed down). More About Paul: Paul Schlader co-founded Birch Coffee, a New York City-based coffee company, in 2009. Since then, the company has grown to fourteen locations and is doing 10x the revenue by the end of year three. Paul and his business partner Jeremy have been focused on bettering the industry through their work in coffee and service over the past fifteen years. Paul's work directly focuses on quality of product. As a licensed Q grader, he manages all of Birch's green coffee purchases, and oversees their roasting, wholesale program, and espresso training. Though the coffee side is important, leadership is where Paul spends most of his time, building teams and working to teach their leaders to follow the mission, "Serve our customers every need, every time, knowing every moment counts.”

The best systems aren't cumbersome sources of frustration collecting dust in the cloud—they save you so much time, that creating even more streamlined solutions becomes a personal passion. That's the case for me and today's returning guest, Karen Allen. We're going behind-the-business, swapping ideas for client-facing pages, client tracking databases, course resources pages, personal journaling, and more. Although we are talking specifically about Notion (this isn't #sponcon, I swear!), any software that has similar functionality can work :) More About Karen: Karen is a super-mom, healthy eater, and keynote speaker. After experiencing the tragedy of losing her husband, she picked herself up and set out to thrive for her son's sake. She is the founder of the 100% Human movement, helping others develop a mindset of joy and abundance through her community. She also hosts the In the Details podcast, and be sure to check out our previous conversation in episode 191: Structuring Free Time as a Single Parent While Grieving and Rebuilding.

No matter how many times you have heard it, the story of Jallianwala Bagh is terrifying. But when most of us first heard the story of the massacre, we weren't mature enough to absorb the significance of what we were reading.As schoolboys we were only allowed a casual and dinky relationship with our history text books. Jallianwala Bagh could pass as another tale of woe in chapter after chapter of bloody wars.And it wasn't until we were older and for many—let's tell the truth here—watching the movie Gandhi—did the horror of it all come home.My guest today is Navtej Sarna, author of Crimson Spring—in essence a book about the massacre at Jallianwala Bagh, but one that is more history than novel. It is a literary work that describes a historical tragedy through the emotions of its protagonists.  While reading his book, it struck me that we don't preserve and portray the horrors of history in any tangible form, say, like the holocaust museums; Auschwitz and other locations. And then it occurred to me that the broad dissemination of Indian history is principally among school children. And that includes mythology. Even ones that include mature themes, such as the Mahabharata.No wonder then that the authors who have given us history—whether as history or as novels of historical fiction—have become bestsellers. Think William Dalrymple with over a million Twitter followers, Ram Guha, Chitra Divakaruni, Navtej Sarna, and so many others.There is a hunger for history. And no better time than the 75th year of Indian independence to tell these tales.Crimson Spring is but another in an impressive list of books authored by Sarna. And among them the most compelling for me is his book on his literary travels: Second Thoughts subtitled, On Books, Authors and The Writerly Life.Through trying to find the origins and the final resting places of the great writers, Sarna introduces us to that wonderful world. And packages the most important works of literature in an easily digestible form.He is a diplomat—former Ambassador to the United States, Israel and former High Commissioner to the United Kingdom. And he joins us today from his home in New Delhi.I am privileged to welcome Navtej Sarna to The Literary City.ABOUT NAVTEJ SARNANavtej Sarna was India's Ambassador to the United States, High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, and Ambassador to Israel. He has also served as Secretary to the Government of India and as the Foreign Office Spokesperson. His earlier diplomatic assignments were in Moscow, Warsaw, Thimphu, Tehran, Geneva, and Washington DC. His literary work includes the novels The Exile and We Weren't Lovers Like That, the short story collection Winter Evenings, non-fiction works The Book of Nanak, Second Thoughts, and Indians at Herod's Gate, as well as two translations, Zafarnama and Savage Harvest. He is a prolific columnist and commentator on foreign policy and literary matters, contributing regularly to media platforms in India and abroad. His latest book is Crimson Spring, on the Jallianwala Bagh massacre.Buy Crimson Spring: https://amzn.to/3BUjMqtBuy Second Thoughts: On Books, Authors and the Writerly Life: https://amzn.to/3JBqTpoWHAT'S THAT WORD?!Co-host Pranati "Pea" Madhav joins Ramjee Chandran in the segment "What's That Word?", where they discuss the phrase "Out damn spot!"WANT TO BE ON THE SHOW?Reach us by mail: theliterarycity@explocity.com or simply, tlc@explocity.com.Or here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theliterarycity.Or here:  https://www.instagram.com/explocityblr/

In this episode we are in conversation with the former chairman of the National Security Advisory Board (NSAB) Shyam saran about his new book, How China sees India and the world and the authoritative view of India-China relationship. Two years after the Galwan clashes on June 15-16, 2020, in which at least 20 Indian soldiers and four Chinese soldiers were killed, the government says it has still not ascertained why China amassed its troops in such large numbers at the border. In this episode, author Shyam Saran lists a number of reasons while also delving deep into the historic relationships between the two countries. With dates, events and personality, this book sums up volumes of Chinese history, giving it a very comprehensive and uniquely Indian perspective as well. In this episode of the On Books podcast, we discuss some of the history but most importantly talk about what we can learn from China that will help up deal with this challenge today and in the future. 

Falling in love is undoubtedly one of the best feelings in the world. It makes our heart flutter and the butterflies in our stomachs dance in joy. No matter the age, love is something we all feel, may it be fleeting or long-term. But not all the people we love feel the same way for us and vice versa. Feelings don't always get reciprocated no matter how much we work on them. In this case, what is the proper response for the person on the receiving end of a love confession?In this episode, Rosie and Tessa talk about the overarching theme of love. They answer a question from a listener on how to respond to someone they don't feel the same way romantically. Furthermore, they talked about when to say "I love you." They highlight the importance of setting boundaries in avoiding asymmetrical relationships. Tessa then shares the details of her love story at the end of the podcast!This episode was brought to you by: Prosewww.prose.com/loved for your FREE in-depth hair consultation and 15% OFF your supplements!SugarBreakVisit www.sugarbreak.com/rosie and use code ROSIE for 15% off your entire order!

On Books, on "Dune, " on Uncle Buck and Marcella! After a few weeks apart, the Halls reunite to talk books, TV series, and the new movie "Dune." And being us, we manage to squeeze in all sorts of intriguing tidbits, from the inspiration for the movie "Home Alone" to the fact we're "famous by proxy." We discuss:Books:"Ghosts of New York," by Jim Lewis.  A novel that suspends the laws of time and space follows four characters in the Big Apple."The Silver Arrow," by Lev Grossman. The author of the adult-themed "Magicians" series writes a fun children's yarn involving a magical train and saving the world."How Music Works," by David Byrne. The Talking Heads frontman explains how the making of music stems from context (time, place, the technology available) and looks at his own musical history. Highly recommended."A Mind Spread Out on the Ground," by Alicia Elliott. This raw memoir explores the ongoing effects of personal, intergenerational, and colonial traumas on Native people.Streaming/Theaters:"Dune": Denis Villeneuve ("Blade Runner 2049," "Arrival") directs an engrossing, visually stunning adaptation of Frank Herbert's complex 1965 sci-fi novel of otherworldly adventure, political intrigue, and giant sandworms."Marcella",  a Netflix drama with a London detective (Anna Friel) coping with marital woes, her struggles as a mom, and a tragic loss—while she excels at catching killers."Uncle Buck," a lesser but still enjoyable John Hughes movie with John Candy as a bachelor slob babysitting his brother's kids in suburban Chicago, to their chagrin."In the Dark": The third season finds our hot mess blind girl (Perry Mattfield) and her friends on the lam while searching for her abducted pal Jess. And having lots of sex.

Today on the EdTech Startup Show, I talk to Chris Castiglione (@castig). Chris is the Dean of One Month, an adjunct professor at the business school at Columbia University, and the host of his own podcast, On Books. (Note: One reason to start your own company - you get to give yourself an awesome title like "Dean.") In simple terms, Chris is a twenty-first-century teacher. His company One Month is an online education platform teaching people technical skills like coding and project management through real-world projects in just 30 days. The company started when Chris and his co-founder Mattan began traveling around the world teaching people how to code. The problem was clear: they couldn't clone themselves, and there was a flood of students who wanted to learn from them. One Month was born. I first connected with Chris and his company in 2013. Having just sparked my own curiosity in learning to code, I dove into the course, which was one of the first Chris and Mattan offered on their site. I eventually wrote about the experience for Edutopia here. In just a few short lessons, probably under an hour, I had downloaded a new programming language onto my computer and created the basics of an app that was a clone of Pinterest. Just contrast that with the way a typical in-person course syllabus plays out. How long until students work on an exciting project? Days? Weeks? These satisfying wins, or "gold coin moments" as Chris calls them, are at the heart of great learning experiences, both online and in-person. Chris knows a thing or two about the power of lifelong learning. We discuss: - How in-person teaching experience led Chris to start his online education company - "Gold Coin Moments" and the difference between an online course and college class - The History of the Internet, an inspiring new writing project - Why knowing the mindset folks bring to your educational content is a difference maker - Motivating students in online education - And more Fun links from this episode: As a listener to the Edtech Startup Show, you can get 10% off coding courses at One Month.

Educated is the memoir about a girl who went from being homeschooled in rural Idaho, to receive her Ph.D. from Cambridge University. Along the way she confronts poverty, ignorance, violence, and a host of other challenges. It's the remarkable, true story of Westover's journey to find an education. Educated was on the top of Bill Gate's Book list of 2018, as well as Barak Obama, Oprah, and the New York Times. And now it's on the top of my list! This week I chat with Allison Goldberg (Blogologues) in this very special 2-person bookclub episode of the On Books podcast.

I love this book because while the subject of is "buildings," it's really about time. What happens to the objects we create over time? Buildings inevitably change with time, but what makes some get better, while others get worse? To answer that question, Stewart Brand has organized hundreds of photos, and written a poetic narrative linking together decades of lessons learned from I. M. Pei's Media Lab, George Washington's Mount Vernon home, Greenwich Village brownstones, and many more examples. In the end, it turns out that buildings can learn a lot from humans, and that humans can learn a lot from buildings. Subscribe to On Books on iTunes. Learn more @ www.on-books.com

He was a City Councilman, a magazine publisher and he developed a fine arts community in his central Maine community. One day his addiction to pornography and internet chat rooms cost him everything. Josh Shea is speaking out about what happened to him. Pornography is a problem that pervades all societies but only in America is it used as a weapon against the people. On Books in Heinessight, we let Joshua Shea tell his story so that others might understand the dangers of addiction in America's hypocritical and lawyer based society.

50 Ways to Get a Job is a career book with fifty proven exercises you can use to find meaningful work. Last week I met with Dev Aujla to discuss his favorite takeaways from the book. One thing I have concluded after my chat with Dev: Resumes alone don’t work. How do most people apply for a job? Most people make a resume, apply to job boards, and then wait around hoping that someone, somewhere, will call, all the while becoming the most depressing person in history to hang out with.Dev Aujla spent over three years reading every career book since the 1970s. In that time he tested his methods on over 400,000 people! What he learned is that this old “resume & wait” game is over. In his book, he has proposed 50 tested ways to land your dream job. In our interview Dev answers the questions: * If resumes don’t work, what works in 2018? * What are your favorite takeaways from the book? * What’s the best cover letter? * How do you land a technical job or a job in a startup? I hope you enjoy my interview with Dev Aujla, author of 50 Ways to Get a Job. On Books is available on iTunes, Spotify, and YouTube. **Please give On Books a 5 Star Rating on iTunes! It helps a lot.

Human Action: A Treatise on Economics by Ludwig von Mises had a profound effect on Charles Koch when he read it for the first time. Described as his “magnum opus,” this 900-page, 1949 treatise details a comprehensive, economics-based worldview on how people can live and work together peacefully – including what motivates us to act and […]Join the conversation and comment on this podcast episode: https://ricochet.com/podcast/on-books/human-action-treatise-economics/.Now become a Ricochet member for only $5.00 a month!

Charles G. Koch explains what makes Tom Wolfe compelling reading. Originally published as a 27-part serial in Rolling Stone, then heavily revised for novelization, this 1987 tome set in New York City is considered by many to be the quintessential novel of the 1980s – receiving both widespread critical acclaim and weeks on best-seller lists.

Charles discusses Personal Knowledge: Towards a Post-Critical Philosophy by Michael Polyani and the profound influence the book had on his business. When it was published in 1958, “Personal Knowledge” challenged a prevailing philosophical idea – that all knowledge is objective, absolute and independent of individual experience. By reframing it as a personal discipline, Polanyi reclaims knowledge […]Join the conversation and comment on this podcast episode: https://ricochet.com/podcast/on-books/personal-knowledge-towards-a-post-critical-philosophy/.Now become a Ricochet member for only $5.00 a month!

Many of us insist the main impediment to a full, successful life is the outside world. In fact, the most common enemy lies within: our ego. Early in our careers, it impedes learning and the cultivation of talent. With success, it can blind us to our faults and sow future problems. In failure, it magnifies each blow and makes recovery more difficult. At every stage, ego holds us back.   In this episode of On Books, I'll read the introduction to Ego is the Enemy, as well as share my top 3 takeaways from the book. 

In Zero Waste Home, Bea Johnson shares the story of how she simplified her life by reducing her waste. The book is a how-to guide for reducing as much waste as possible from your life. In this episode of On Books, I interview Bea and discuss about how to reduce waste. 

Peter Singer is a well known Australian philosopher and author. In 2005 Time magazine named Singer one of the top 100 most influential people of the year. His latest two books The Life You Can Save (2009), and The Most Good You Can Do (2015) explore how you can be a vehicle for change in the world - right now, and without giving up much. Both of which we’ve covered in previous episodes of On Books! In this episode we discuss: * What does it mean to do “the most good"? * Are startups improving the world? * Why did you write The Life You Can Save? * What was it like being one of the first people to petition for animal rights back in the 1970s? My hope is that these three episodes of On Books will inspire you to unleash more good in the world - not only for others, but as you’ll see, for your own happiness and well being. After spending time with Singer, he has opened my eyes to the idea that giving just a little money ($5.00) to the right causes (thelifeyoucansave.org) can be enough to save a human life. Now that I know what’s possible - it feels like I’ve had superpowers all along and just didn’t know it. Email the show: chris @ on-books.com 

In this episode of On Books, I discuss The Inevitable: Understanding the 12 Technological Forces That Will Shape Our Future, by Kevin Kelly.  The Inevitable is driven by the idea that the technological trends of the next 30 years can be predicted. Over 336 pages the book breaks down the Top 12 technological forces at work such as: "Becoming, Cognifying, Flowing, Screening, Accessing, Sharing, Filtering, Remixing, Interacting, Tracking, Questioning, and Beginning." The names themselves don't really tell you much about these trends, and so I'll break down in this shorter 25 minute episode of On Books the first three trends: Becoming, Cognifying and Flowing so that by the end of the podcast you'll have a pretty good sense of how to use these in your everyday work. And you'll have enough of the kernel of the concept of what "inevitable" means so that you can decide if this book is right for you! Who better to speak on this subject than Kevin Kelly (co-founder of Wired Magazine, co-founder of The Quantified Self Movement, his accolades go on and on and on). Kelly's early writing in Out of Control (1994), and New Rules for the New Economy (1998) were highly influential in the shaping the past 20 years of the web, and his predictions here will no doubt be influential in shaping the next 20+ years. I hope you enjoy this episode! If you'd like to learn more about the book and Kevin Kelly please check out the previous episode of On Books (Episode #39) to hear my conversation with Kevin Kelly on 60s counterculture, How to Read Better and of course The Inevitable.
