This 15-minute episode is experimental, and it might just change
your life. I suspect many of you will listen to it on an
ongoing weekly basis, and that's precisely what I plan to
do. It's a wonderful essay from the newest book in the
Tim Ferriss Book Club: We Learn Nothing by Tim
Kreider. The essay stands on its own and is titled
"Lazy: A Manifesto." I loved this book so much that I
reached out to Tim and we produced the audiobook together. If you
want to stop feeling rushed, this is the medicine you need. Here
is what writer/director Judd Apatow has to say about Tim Kreider:
"Tim Kreider's writing is heartbreaking, brutal and
hilarious—usually at the same time. He can do in a few pages what
I need several hours of screen time and tens of millions to
accomplish. And he does it better. Come to think of it, I'd
rather not do a blurb. I am beginning to feel bad about myself."
- Judd Apatow And one more: "Tim Kreider may be the most
subversive soul in America and his subversions—by turns public
and intimate, political and cultural—are just what our weary,
mixed-up nation needs. The essays in We Learn Nothing are for
anybody who believes it's high time for some answers, damn it." -
Richard Russo, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Empire Falls
