    #30 Gnar Country: Growing Old, Staying Rad

    #30 Gnar Country: Growing Old, Staying Rad

    Steven Kotler is a New York Times bestselling author, an award-winning journalist, a flow researcher, and the Executive Director of the Flow Research Collective who joined us for our 30th episode (and start of Techonomics Season 3) to discuss his new book, Gnar Country: Growing Old, Staying Rad. Steven has numerous other books like The Rise of Superman, The Art of the Impossible, and Stealing Fire that encompass Steven's work in flow and high performance.

    This is a special episode for Arun and I, not just because we love skiing and trying to find our own peak flow states, but because when we first met Arun recommended the book The Rise of Superman -- that catalyzed our friendship and Techonomics would not be where it is today as a result.

    Big thanks to Steven for coming on the podcast. We know you'll enjoy.
