Books I've Loved — Steve Jurvetson | Brought to
you by Four Sigmatic.
Welcome to another episode of The Tim Ferriss Show, where it
is my job to sit down with world-class performers of all
different types—from startup founders and investors to chess
champions to Olympic athletes. This episode, however, is an
experiment and part of a shorter series I'm doing called "Books
I've Loved." I've invited some amazing past guests,
close friends, and new faces to share their favorite books — the
books that have influenced them, changed them, and transformed
them for the better. I hope you pick up one or two new
mentors — in the form of books — from this new series and apply
the lessons in your own life.
Steve Jurvetson (@jurvetson) is an
early-stage venture capitalist with a focus on founder-led,
mission-driven companies at the cutting edge of disruptive
technology and new industry formation. Steve was the early VC
investor in SpaceX, Tesla, Planet, Memphis
Meats, Hotmail, and the deep learning
companies Mythic and Nervana. He has led founding
investments in five companies that went public in successful IPOs
and several others that were acquired for a total of over a $100
billion in value creation.
Before founding Future Ventures and DFJ before that, Steve
was an R&D engineer at Hewlett Packard and worked in product
marketing at Apple and NeXT, and management consulting with Bain
& Company. He currently serves on the boards of Tesla,
SpaceX, and D-Wave.

show notes.
This podcast is brought to you by Four
Sigmatic. I reached out to these
Finnish entrepreneurs after a very talented acrobat introduced me
to one of their products, which blew my mind (in the best way
possible). It is mushroom coffee featuring Lion's Mane. It tastes
like coffee, but there are only 40 milligrams of caffeine, so it
has less than half of what you would find in a regular cup of
coffee. I do not get any jitters, acid reflux, or any type of
stomach burn. It put me on fire for an entire day, and I only had
half of the packet.
You can try it right now by going to
foursigmatic.com/tim and using the code
Tim to get 20 percent off your first order. If you are
in the experimental mindset, I do not think you'll be
disappointed.
