This is a great podcast. Well researched, well written and great effects. Jason’s not just repeating - or accepting “conventional” wisdom about change. Instead, he’s tracking down the real change story and communicating it in a way that leaves you wanting more. Can’t wait for the next story!

A Lot of Time Spent on This :)

Very informative podcast with incredibly delivery. Our friend Jason Feifer is a very good host and asks just the right questions. (Check out his newsletter; also very cool) It’s clear that a lot, A LOT of time has been spent on this podcast. Big names come up and there are lots of perspectives explained. The content itself is very interesting and helps us, well, build for tomorrow. While the upload time takes about a month, it’s still worth subscribing to and listening to every darn episode. The upload time personally doesn’t bother me, as I can see all of that time put in to the amazing quality, but I understand it might to some people. Well worth the listen, and super helpful, informative, perspective-changing and preparatory! Thanks all! :)
Jason is awesome

I listened to a few of these. They had some cute tidbits but definitely not worth subscribing or keeping in rotation. Mostly a waste of time.
What the world needs right now (and always)
09/20/2021
This is one of my favorite shows of all time. Why? I not only learn something new every time I listen, I feel differently and better about the world each time I listen. Almost every show I start listening thinking I know how I feel about a thing, and then Jason radically changes my mind and makes me feel better about the inevitable change that is a part of history and every day life. 10/10 recommend.
Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!

I love this cast! Interesting stories about historically hilarious pessimism! There is truly nothing new under the sun! Enjoy! Addendum: I would love to hear business wars from further back in time. Standard oil anyone? East India company?
A breath of fresh air

The realistically positive approach to these subjects and depth of research is extremely refreshing, as well as thought provoking. The host is a great interviewer, and strikes the right balance of no nonsense discussion without oversimplifying the topics discussed. I find myself as encouraged by the thoughtful empathy of his approach to these topics as much as what is actually said.
Got me into podcasts

I learned about BFT from a friend at a technology center think tank. I wasn’t much of a podcast listener before then, but this podcast made me realize how well podcasts can feed my lifelong urge to learn. I now listen to several different podcasts that teach me just super interesting stuff, and it’s all thanks to Jason. Thank you for continuing to be a beacon of new knowledge in my life!
