Bozeman, Montana — In 2010, Outside magazine nominated

PodcastsTim featured this 1× · 2018 · web.archive.org

Bozeman, Montana — In 2010, Outside magazine nominated Bozeman as one of the best towns for skiing, and I couldn’t resist plucking this part from their description of the city: “Cradled by 10,000-foot peaks, hyaline streams, and ragged wilderness, the fastest-growing town in the state has a bustling college campus and brains to match: Residents may wear cowboy hats, but the Ph.D. rate is twice the national average. Free live music in city parks during summer and community sporting events like the spectacular 20-mile Bridger Ridge Run keep the blood flowing.” I’m considering doing a live podcas— Tim Ferriss

Petzl TIKKA headlamp

PodcastsTim featured this 1× · 2018 · amazon.com

Petzl TIKKA headlamp. There are a million headlamps out there, and there has been a creeping complexity. As filmmaker Morgan Spurlock once said in our podcast together, “Once you get fancy, fancy gets broken.” The TIKKA is the right blend of power and simplicity, with two light colors (white and red), and a single operating button. I recently returned from the rainforest, and this was my only source of light for nearly 10 days.— Tim Ferriss

Some time ago, many of you (and I personally) helped to fund a scientific study at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine investigating the use psilocybin for treatment-resistant depression. It is now (finally!) underway, and below is an update emailed to me by Roland R. Griffiths, Ph.D., professor in the Departments of Psychiatry and Neuroscience. Be sure to read to the end, especially if you suffer from depression and live within driving distance of Baltimore: “This study is evaluating the antidepressant and psychological effects of psilocybin in people ages 21 through 75 who have unipo— Tim Ferriss

If you haven’t listened already, I highly recommend that you check out two podcast episodes featuring Terry Crews and Tim Urban. Recorded in December, they are still receiving hundreds of thousands of downloads each month. Both contain equal parts hilarity, tactical advice, and profound a-ha moments. It was a gift to be part of these.— Tim Ferriss

Yin Reserve

PodcastsTim featured this 1× · 2017 · strengthsenseinutraceuticals.com

Yin Reserve was developed by one of the world’s most successful strength coaches, Charles R. Poliquin (you can listen to his podcast episodes hereand here). If you ask Charles, he’ll tell you that sleep is the most underrated aspect of recovery. That’s because all hormones that contribute to peak performance are directly affected by your sleep. This supplement combines magnesium, inositol and theanine to reduce anxiety and increase both the quality and quantity of restorative sleep.— Tim Ferriss

The “Wrath of the Khans” series

PodcastsTim featured this 1× · 2017 · dancarlin.com

The “Wrath of the Khans” series on Hardcore History. Dan Carlin’s Hardcore History is my favorite podcast, bar none, and this is still my favorite series of his to date. Think of it like the best non-fiction audiobook you’ve ever heard. It’s worth the headache to download, and it’s worth listening to more than once.— Tim Ferriss

I’ll keep this one short, as it’s related to the above.

PodcastsTim featured this 1× · 2017 · Dr. Martin Gibala · tim.blog

I’ll keep this one short, as it’s related to the above. I’m experimenting with high-intensity interval training (HIIT) as prescribed by Dr. Martin Gibala, one of the world’s foremost exercise scientists (Podcast: “The One-Minute Workout Designed by Scientists”). Most recently, I’ve been using the above XPO/prowler on asphalt with straight arms (at about 50% max grip height) to remove the variability of arm position. I find stationary biking about as interesting as watching paint dry, and the prowler is lower impact. I also suspect there will be some nice carryover to handstand work. Totally lo— Tim Ferriss

My new TV show, Fearless

PodcastsTim featured this 1× · 2017 · tim.blog

My new TV show, Fearless, debuted last Tuesday at 8pm on DIRECTV. Fearless spotlights in-depth, long-form conversations with world-class performers, focusing on how they’ve overcome fears, made hard decisions, and won at the highest levels imaginable. The first episode (which you can watch here) featured illusionist and performance artist David Blaine (@davidblaine). The show is on DIRECTV channel 239 and AT&T U-Verse channel 1114, but if you’re a cord-cutter, you can still watch on the DIRECTV NOW app. Click here for all the information on how you can watch.— Tim Ferriss

Masters of Scale podcast, hosted by Reid Hoffman -- Brian Chesky

PodcastsTim featured this 1× · 2017 · Reid Hoffman -- Brian Chesky · stitcher.com

Masters of Scale podcast, hosted by Reid Hoffman -- Brian Chesky This is a FANTASTIC 30-minute conversation/class from two startup Jedi, LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman (LinkedIn, Twitter) and co-founder of Airbnb, Brian Chesky (@bchesky). It masterfully covers how to create “magical experiences” by deliberatly doing things that don’t scale. Oddly enough, that can be a key to later scaling to hundreds of millions -- or billions -- of users. If you make products or services of any type, this is worth your time.— Tim Ferriss
