Clearer Thinking with Spencer Greenberg
Clearer Thinking is a podcast about ideas that truly matter. If you enjoy learning about powerful, practical concepts and frameworks, wish you had more deep, intellectual conversations in your life, or are looking for non-BS self-improvement, then we think you'll love this podcast! Each week we invite a brilliant guest to bring four important ideas to discuss for an in-depth conversation. Topics include psychology, society, behavior change, philosophy, science, artificial intelligence, math, economics, self-help, mental health, and technology. We focus on ideas that can be applied right now to make your life better or to help you better understand yourself and the world, aiming to teach you the best mental tools to enhance your learning, self-improvement efforts, and decision-making. • We take on important, thorny questions like: • What's the best way to help a friend or loved one going through a difficult time? How can we make our worldviews more accurate? How can we hone the accuracy of our thinking? What are the advantages of using our "gut" to make decisions? And when should we expect careful, analytical reflection to be more effective? Why do societies sometimes collapse? And what can we do to reduce the chance that ours collapses? Why is the world today so much worse than it could be? And what can we do to make it better? What are the good and bad parts of tradition? And are there more meaningful and ethical ways of carrying out important rituals, such as honoring the dead? How can we move beyond zero-sum, adversarial negotiations and create more positive-sum interactions?

The clearerthinking.org website is amazing, I've spent many hours on there, enriching my mind and life. Spencer Greenberg's hosting style is light, upbeat, at vigorous pace. He's a wonderful, interesting host. Listen often, if you are looking for an earnest, rich discussion. I'd like to see a more evenly balanced spread of genders represented amongst guests. All in all, I recommend this podcast as gentle food for your mind.

Who is the guest?

I’m conflicted about this podcast, on one hand there is great guests with interesting and insightful topics. On the other hand the discussion is often dominated by the host and it seems that he is taking the opportunity to talk primarily about himself and his own views and he sometimes takes forever to make a point where I eventually turn off. More powerful questions and less monologues by the host would help me give it a higher rating.
This show has changed the way I think!!!!!

I listen to this show daily on my way to work (on 1.5x speed as Spencer recommends of course), and it’s the best way to start my day. Spencer constantly prompts deep conversations with his guests which never fail to enhance my knowledge on varying topics, and are always backed up by science. The discussions are always engaging, offering compelling perspectives on topics ranging from crypto, climate change, psychology, self improvement etc. I will always recommend this show to anyone looking for enriching content.
