Akimbo: A Podcast from Seth Godin

Akimbo is an ancient word, from the bend in the river or the bend in an archer's bow. It's become a symbol for strength, a posture of possibility, the idea that when we stand tall, arms bent, looking right at it, we can make a difference. Akimbo's a podcast about our culture and about how we can change it. About seeing what's happening and choosing to do something. The culture is real, but it can be changed. You can bend it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Few still try to say and do what’s right. It’s a tough road to take. Seth is one of the few.

It’s kinda like you were Seth’s Uber driver on the way to the airport and he needed to get something off his chest or out of his head. It’s gold cause it’s Seth.

This is an AMAZING podcast. I love Seth’s honesty and knowledge. He is my fav writers of all time. I used to translate his books before learning English because I couldn’t stop reading his work.
Remarkable & inspiring

I am late to the Akimbo party…but so glad I got here. Seth’s wit, wisdom, and war stories make the perfect blend to create an engaging podcast. The benefit of being late to the party is I’ve got hundreds of back episodes to binge! Enjoy this distinctive podcast created by a true expert.
Most thoughtful, generous podcast available

Akimbo is an education on where we’ve been, where we are, and the opportunity we have to determine where we’re going.
Boo to your anti-logical mask shaming!
11/22/2022
In your March 3rd episode, you insinuate that any anti-mask sentiment is media-fueled, and anti-science. If you opened your mind, you’d see that the same argument could be made in the opposite direction (i.e. irrational pro-mask sentiment is largely media fueled). There is zero scientific evidence that shows wearing glorified t-shirts over our faces does anything to materially reduce the spread of a virus ... certainly not enough to outweigh the significant social costs of doing so. Sure, if we had the capacity to equip every human with recurring-supply of clean, properly sized n95 masks the reality might be different (probably not), but that isn’t - nor will it ever be - the case. Seth you are way too intelligent to peddle in such flaccid logical arguments. It’s sad to realize such a brilliant mind can be poisoned by years of living in an media-dense echo chamber.
Worth making time to listen to

This is the podcast I recommend most often and most enthusiastically to both friends and folks I know professionally - despite it not being at all specific to my industry! Thought provoking, with all kinds of interesting tidbits and ways of looking at/thinking about things. Individual episodes can be hit or miss but the hits far outnumber the misses, and the gestalt over time is fantastic.
