Customer Reviews
Best
I consider James Altucher to be the best interviewer around.
He clarifies and asks questions others would be too embarrassed to ask.
James is super funny, super curious and super intelligent.
And maybe crazy.
He has a wide range of guests so there will be something for everyone.
Again, he’s the most insightful interviewer.
Some gems here
It took me a few episodes to get into James Altucher's style but now I'm addicted. Occasionally there are few interviews that don't interest me so much.. cough.. rap stars. But the majority of the interviews are great especially when the interviewee is familiar with James' works.
I hope the Altucher family can make it to Tokyo one day, I'd be happy to show them around.
Good information
James looks for the logic behind things and shares this info via his interviews. Monologues also great!
Possible future interviews are Sadghuru, Charlie Monger, solar power engineers, and naturalists or monks (not into e-games / virtual living)
Update: love the latest topic and guest re: Life w/out email and James’s experiment about doing without email and SNS. Keep these coming!
PS - I’m a tough grader, I only listen to two podcasts so that should say he’s naturally a five, but I think you can tighten up a bit on production values and themes. Nonetheless, Good
show, mate.
