Great podcast episode recommendation thread

[investmd]

This interview with Dr Jason Fung by Peter Attia is one of the rare podcasts that I know I'll listen to more than once. Also made me add his books to my list.

 

https://peterattiamd.com/jasonfung/

 

I recommend it, even if at first the topics mentioned in the title don't interest you.

 

Liberty, Chesko, I'm a fan of Peter Attia but even as a medic I do find his podcasts to be very technical for non medical audience. Am (pleasantly) surprised to see his podcasts being favourites in an investment thread. Are you in the medical field?

 

The Jason Fung episode totally changes our way of thinking of diabetes - I like the idea of time restricted feeding  but we need some caution as the science is  not there - yet. However, the risk of TRF in healthy adults is uber low. I started about a month or two ago and I'm liking it. Maybe we need to start a thread on Time Restricted Feeding?

I'm not in the medical field, but I've been curious about it for a long time and tend to be an autodidact. I've read some biochemistry and molecular cell biology textbooks and such to get a better understanding... But let's say that the Attia 5-parter with Tom Dayspring about lipidology was about as close to the limit of what I could follow as I've yet found in a podcast. That's some in-depth stuff! But even if I only understand x%, I feel that's still a lot better than not trying and 0%.

Here's one that I've enjoyed a lot, a bit different from most of the others posted here (not about finance or health):

I've been following Mason for years on Twitter, great wide-ranging mind.

This is my favorite podcast so far. The mental clarity of Naval is quite impressive.

Probably listening to him is the best 2 hours I spent on internet this year. Thanks a ton for introducing Naval Ravikant.

If you like Naval, he's done interviews on Patrick O'Shaughnessy, Tim Ferriss and Shane Parrish's podcasts.

I came a across an interesting podcast called Household Name recently.  I listened to the Sears episode out of morbid curiousity (I own SRG) and went down the rabbit hole from there.  The first episode about how the TGIFridays chain restaurant started out as a singles bar in manhattan is very entertaining:

I think that was where Tom Cruise worked in Cocktail.

Lex Fridman of the MIT AI Podcast interviewing Jeff Hawkins:

 

https://lexfridman.com/jeff-hawkins/

 

 

 

Jeff Hawkins is the founder of Redwood Center for Theoretical Neuroscience in 2002 and Numenta in 2005. In his 2004 book titled On Intelligence, and in his research before and after, he and his team have worked to reverse-engineer the neocortex and propose artificial intelligence architectures, approaches, and ideas that are inspired by the human brain. These ideas include Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM) from 2004 and The Thousand Brains Theory of Intelligence from 2017.

 

Very thought-provoking episode, especially the last 1/3rd.

Thanks Liberty, much appreciated.

The freakonomics episode about abortion and crime, where they revisited the thesis formed in 2001 with updated data  is outstanding, imo. Freakonomics is one of the best podcast series I am aware of:

A podcast summarizing the book on Singleton (which is very hard to get) "A Distant Force" (with transcript)

 

https://moiglobal.com/henry-singleton-lessons/

 

This is an example of a badly produced podcast. The talk is monotonous (single person, no dialogue) and the podcast is way too long. Not recommended, unless one is a Singleton junkie. I put it away for good after 20 minutes.

I thought this was a good, wide-ranging dicsussion:

I agree that Attia's podcast is one of the best productions I've ever heard.  In a similar vein to the fasting episode posted by @Liberty, this is a fascinating take with some interesting (though mostly animal) studies to validate the idea of time-restricted feeding:

Thanks everyone for these recommendations, I subscribed to a few.  I am already a subscriber to Tobias Carlisle's podcast, but I find it annoying for the most pedestrian of reasons: so far he lets every guest participate on speakerphone.  I hate speakerphone, it's grating to my ears and sometimes makes it hard for me to understand what is said.  So that's one of my criteria for podcasts I guess -- professional production that is pleasing to the ear.  Anybody else feel this way?

Not about this one but John Mihaljavec's Value Investing podcast.  I lost interest in the content a couple of years ago but recently listened to one again.  The audio was brutal, just as I remember it. It sounds like they put an old tape recorder on a desk and have the interview.

I agree that Tobias Carlisle podcast production quality  could be better. if I find myself in an episode where the quality is unacceptable for my ears, I just delete it and move on.

 

The “ Meb Faber show”, “Compound Investing” and “Invest like the best” have excellent production quality.

Glad I am not the only one who feels this way

I've been really enjoying this new podcast that I discovered. So far I've only heard three episodes, but I quite like them. It's very multidisciplinary in nature, talking about all kinds of interesting stuff (only sometimes about anything related to finance, so don't go in hoping for that):

The episodes that I've heard are those with Robin Hanson, Simon Dedeo, and David Krakauer.

Almost through it and I agree it’s a great podcast. It’s interesting that he mentions a Chinese bromide manufacturer as a fraud, which I recall as GFRE and I looked at this in 2010/11 as it was a favorite on the message board I was frequenting ( and still do, Irs Mike Burry‘s old thread on SI)
