This episode is very special to me and features a verbal Jedi who
never gets interviewed himself: Cal Fussman. Cal (@calfussman) is
a New York Times bestselling author and a writer-at-large for
Esquire Magazine, where he is best known for being a primary
writer of the “What I Learned” feature. The Austin Chronicle has
described Cal's interviewing skills as "peerless." He has
transformed oral history into an art form, conducting probing
interviews with the icons who’ve shaped the last 50 years of
world history: Mikhail Gorbachev, Jimmy Carter, Ted Kennedy, Jeff
Bezos, Richard Branson, Jack Welch, Robert DeNiro, Clint
Eastwood, Al Pacino, George Clooney, Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom
Hanks, Bruce Springsteen, Dr. Dre, Quincy Jones, Woody Allen,
Barbara Walters, Pelé, Yao Ming, Serena Williams, John Wooden,
Muhammad Ali, and countless others. Born in Brooklyn,
Cal spent 10 straight years traveling the world, swimming
over 18-foot tiger sharks, rolling around with mountain gorillas
in Rwanda, and searching for gold in the Amazon. He has also made
himself a guinea pig — Cal has boxed against world champion Julio
Cesar Chavez and served as a sommelier atop of the World Trade
Center. He now lives with his wife—whom he met while on a quest
to discover the world’s most beautiful beach—and his three
children in Los Angeles, where he spends every morning eating
breakfast with Larry King. Show notes and links for this episode

Wealthfront is a massively disruptive (in a good way)
set-it-and-forget-it investing service, led by technologists from
places like Apple. It has exploded in popularity in the last two
years and now has more than $2.5B under management. Why? Because
you can get services previously limited to the ultra-wealthy and
only pay pennies on the dollar for them, and it’s all through
smarter software instead of retail locations and bloated sales
teams. Check out wealthfront.com/tim, take their risk assessment
quiz, which only takes 2-5 minutes, and they’ll show you—for
free–exactly the portfolio they’d put you in. If you want to just
take their advice and do it yourself, you can. Well worth a few
minutes to explore: wealthfront.com/tim.
