Ich bin 35 geworden – und teile in dieser Solo-Folge 8 Lebenslektionen, die ich mit 18 gebraucht hätte.Nach 15 Jahren YouTube, 7 Jahren Podcast und tausenden Kunden im Mentoring spreche ich offen über Hustle-Culture, schmerzhafte Trennungen, Grenzen setzen, erfolgreiches Scheitern und die Angst vor Veränderung. Warum dich „mehr pushen“ oft weiter von dir selbst entfernt. Und weshalb wahre Freiheit entsteht, wenn du aufhörst, ein Leben zu leben, das nicht mehr zu deinen Werten passt.

Where did the journey of iD Fresh start?It began when a 19-year-old Abdul Nazer decided to run away from home to Bangalore with ₹100 in his pocket. He did any job that came his way: cook, cleaner, conductor and sold anything he could, from clothes and vegetables to spices and peanuts. Along the way, he brought his three brothers to Bangalore.Even with huge losses in business, they never stopped looking for new opportunities. Their first real glimpse of success came from a tea stall run out of a rented room that cost ₹80 a month. Despite strong demand, the tea business was still running at a loss. The turning point came when they started opening the stall at 2 in the morning: a disruptive business model, says PC. Those ₹2 cups of tea taught them lessons they would carry forward.Abdul Nazer and PC Mustafa together share these stories for the first time. Their journey reminds us that no success is overnight, especially not for these brothers. It was at their kirana store in Indiranagar that the idea of iD Fresh was born. Five brothers with no background in food technology spent six months experimenting with recipes before finding their hero product. This is the story of five founders who pushed past their circumstances. Today, iD Fresh is at a scale the founders never dreamed of growing up in Wayanad. 00:00 – Trailer00:55 – Dropping out of studies02:32 – 19 Year Old that Runaway to Bangalore04:35 – First job as a cook11:25 – When Nazer decided to become an entrepreneur14:01 – Huge loss in Vegetable business16:15 – Starting the kirana store that led to iD18:00 – On the verge of shutting down20:10 – How Lambu Tea Stall became profitable24:16 – When PC decided to do business with Nazer25:14 – All the (failed) businesses that led to iD27:04 – Why PC decided to come back to India28:23 – The origin story of the idli batter idea31:40 – The first $50k investment32:57 – Cracking the batter without any food tech expertise34:38 – The first recipe that became iD's hero product35:35 – Why iD failed to sell 100 packets in 6 Months41:15 – The first customer approval43:06 – Building awareness was the biggest challenge44:35 – Lack of cold storage in supermarkets45:22 – The inventory model of iD46:25 – How the initial team was built48:35 – Story of team spirit50:15 – When iD Fresh Chennai & Mumbai Failed52:27 – How the chemistry worked between the five brothers56:52 – The buyout offer of ₹20+ crores57:35 – How founders build the mindset to hire experts1:00:50 – Did the runaway child achieve his dream?1:03:09 – How Nazer's choices directly led to iD1:04:45 – Building within value systems1:07:26 – Summary: what really worked for iD Fresh-------------India's talent has built the world's tech—now it's time to lead it.This mission goes beyond startups.

De nerdmeter staat weer vol in deze nieuwe aflevering van Nerd Culture. We trappen af met wat we allemaal hebben gekeken, gelezen en geluisterd, waaronder IT: Welcome to Derry, Mr. Mercedes en zelfs Troll 2. Daarna schakelen we moeiteloos door naar het grote nieuws: verse trailers voor Supergirl, Hijack en The Boys, stevige Marvel-geruchten rond Avengers: Doomsday en de vraag of AI inmiddels trailers en beelden begint te domineren.Ook bespreken we Disney's opvallende deal met OpenAI, de toekomst van Warner Bros., en waarom 28 Years Later maar blijft doorgaan. Kortom: van Stephen King tot superhelden en van Hollywood-politiek tot pure nerdhype.Avengers Doomsday is een showdown tussen Doom en CapDe geruchten rond Avengers: Doomsday nemen een verrassende wending. Waar veel fans rekenden op een frontale botsing tussen Reed Richards en Victor Von Doom, lijkt Marvel een andere, veel persoonlijkere route te kiezen. Volgens meerdere insiders draait de kern van de film om een conflict tussen Doctor Doom en Steve Rogers. Doom zou Captain America verantwoordelijk houden voor een multiverse-incursion, veroorzaakt door zijn beslissing om na Endgame in het verleden te blijven bij Peggy Carter. Daarmee verschuift de focus van een klassieke intellectuele rivaliteit naar een morele en emotionele confrontatie, met grote gevolgen voor het MCU. Wij bespreken wat dit betekent voor Doom, voor Cap én voor de richting van de Multiverse Saga richting Secret Wars.Disney sluit deal met OpenAIOok Disney zet een grote stap richting een AI-gedreven toekomst. The Walt Disney Company heeft een meerjarige deal gesloten met OpenAI en wordt daarmee de eerste grote contentpartner van Sora, OpenAI's generatieve AI-videoplatform. Fans kunnen straks met simpele prompts korte video's en beelden maken met officieel gelicenseerde Disney-, Marvel-, Pixar- en Star Wars-personages, van Mickey Mouse tot Darth Vader. Opvallend: Disney investeert tegelijk 1 miljard dollar in OpenAI, maar benadrukt dat zijn IP níét wordt gebruikt om AI-modellen te trainen en dat geen stemmen of gelijkenissen van acteurs zijn inbegrepen. Wij bespreken wat dit betekent voor creativiteit, auteursrecht en de machtspositie van Disney in een tijd waarin Hollywood steeds nerveuzer wordt van AI.Blockbuster Helden: De Adelaars van RomeEens waren ze vrienden en wapenbroeders in het Romeinse leger, de Romein Marcus en de Germaan Arminius. Maar het verraad van Arminius, waardoor drie Romeinse legioenen werden uitgeroeid, dreef een wig tussen hun vriendschap. Ze staan nu tegenover elkaar als aartsvijanden. Arminius heeft de zoon van Marcus ontvoerd en als zijn eigen zoon geadopteerd, zijn hoogzwangere vrouw Thusnelda werd door de Romeinen gevangengenomen. Haar leven is in gevaar en alleen Marcus kan haar redden.Hoewel Enrico Marini met een grote historische accuraatheid en een fenomenale stijl de wereld van De Adelaars van Rome vorm geeft, is zelfs dat niet de grote kracht van de serie. Het is vooral een serie vol emoties, zoals hij zelf zegt: ‘Iedereen kan zich identificeren met familieproblemen. Het zijn emotionele conflicten die elke lezer kan begrijpen. Het verhaal komt dan veel dichterbij. Als het emotionele aspect van een familie of vriendschap ontbreekt, wordt het verhaal minder interessant. Emotie is de kern van elk goed verhaal.'Timestamps:00:00:00 Nerd Culture #23700:01:13 Wat hebben we gekeken?00:01:20 IT: Welcome to Derry00:04:12 Mr. Mercedes00:07:05 Troll 200:12:34 Special Forces00:19:42 Blockbuster Helden00:25:12 Supergirl Trailer00:27:40 The Rock & Brendan Fraser00:31:25 Paramount vs Warner Bros00:36:00 Disney x OpenAI (Sora)00:40:12 Hijack Season 2 Trailer00:43:45 Sakamoto Days (Live-Action)00:45:48 Street Fighter Trailer00:46:08 28 Years Later00:49:31 Thor in Avengers: Doomsday?00:51:48 Sebastian Stan over Doomsday00:56:43 Doom vs Captain America01:04:00 Sigourney Weaver & Alien01:07:00 The Boys – Final Season

This episode is part 2 of Understanding sex differences in work and lifestyle. I share observations and insights based on data collected by evolutionary psychologist, Stephen Stewart-Williams. This research is important because it negates the big narrative that says women are behind men in prestige and financial gain because of biases and barriers against them.The data tells a different story.Part 2 is focused on how money is no longer a masculine contribution, how men have lost the fulfillment in meaning in work that used to be there, how important apprenticeships are for young men, and trying to understand what is work actually for and is the answer to that different for men and women?00:00 – 00:21 Trailer00:25 – 00:45 Introduction 00:45 – 04:19 Women vs Men Narrative 04:19 – 06:27: Why Fewer Female CEOs Exist 06:27 – 07:27 Screen Share: Life Values Data 07:27 – 09:00 Women's Primary Motivations Beyond Money 09:00 – 10:00 Why Work Feels Unnatural for Women 10:00 – 11:23 Societal Pressure vs Personal Values 11:23 – 12:20 Biological Influence on Preferences 12:20 – 14:17 Closing Reflections on Purpose and Work14:17 - 14:26 Outro___________________________If you found some value today then help me spread the word!

For our guest today, Boyang Xue, the answer is simple: Japan.In this episode, we dive into his unforgettable gap year in Japan—learning Japanese at the same university where Murakami once studied, biking for a week between Tokyo and Izu peninsula, camping under starlit skies, hopping slow trains all the way to Hokkaido, and hiking through landscapes that few tourists ever see.Charming and full of stories, he shares not just adventures from Japan, but also tales from Colombia, Italy, Switzerland, and beyond.
