    Paul Oyer, Stanford – Economic Value of Tradition, Reckless Spending in Sports, & The Most Insane Stat You’ve Ever Heard

    My guest today is Paul Oyer, a professor of economics at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. He’s also the author of An Economist Goes to the Game: How to Throw Away $580 Million and Other Surprising Insights from the Economics of Sports. Paul and I start with the most insane statistic I have come across in my entire life. Then we blow through a number of topics, including gambling, the NIL, the effects of conference realignment within college athletics, public financing of private stadiums, why coaches get huge buyouts, and most importantly, why I was serving a huge need by reselling a boatload of UF football tickets when I was in undergrad. This was a fun conversation on the future of sports related to a number of topics with a bright mind and I hope you enjoy the episode.

Our conversation today starts with lessons learned from studying and talking to Coach Kerr. Then we shift to the topic of her best selling book, Rebel Talent: Why it Pays to Break Rules in Work and Life. She was one of the most impressive people I’ve talked to before, and if I haven’t convinced you to listen yet, know she had just finished a session teaching an NBA staff on various topics.

    SPECIAL: Jeff Seder – The Best Moneyball Story of All-Time (via The Meb Faber Show)

    Today’s episode features a conversation between Jeff Seder and Meb Faber on The Meb Faber Show podcast. In my last episode with Seth Stephens-Davidowitz, we touched on the incredible story of Jeff Seder and how utilizing data led him to go all-in on American Pharoah and later tell his employer, “Sell your horse, don’t sell this horse.” Wise words considering the horse would go on to become the first Triple Crown winner in 37 years. Meb was kind enough to allow me to release the episode on my feed here for you to listen to. That being said, if you enjoy the episode and want to repay the favor to Meb, or are looking for a podcast on investing and what’s going on in the economy, whether it’s the freakonomics of weed, what in the world is going on in the housing market, or hearing about the impact of the Russia/Ukraine war on geopolitics, be sure to check out and subscribe to The Meb Faber Show. And if you want to test it out, he released an episode yesterday with some of the best clips from this year. Now enjoy this conversation between Meb Faber & Jeff Seder.

    Seth Stephens-Davidowitz: Moneyball For Your Life

    My guest today is Seth Stephens-Davidowitz, author of Don't Trust Your Gut: Using Data to Get What You Really Want in Life. I’m not sure if there’s someone whose work is more fascinating to me than Seth. His first book, Everybody Lies, looked at how our Google searches reveal our true selves with topics like racism, child abuse, This book looks at what the data says on how to live a better life. We touch on parenting, finding a spouse, being a sports fan, what sport your child should play if they want the best chance to get a college scholarship, and how much of an athlete’s success is nature vs. nurture. His work is as fun as it is insightful and I’m sure you’ll love this episode. Note this does contain some mature content towards the end of the episode.

    Subscribe to the *free* newsletter here My guest today is David Shaw, head coach of the Stanford football team. In this episode, he talks about what it’s been like to coach players like Andrew Luck and Christian McCaffrey at an elite academic institution like Stanford and lessons he’s learned working with guys like Brian Billick and Jon Gruden. Coach Shaw has been pursued by NFL teams and shares advice on how he thinks about his professional career, what makes him happy in life, and what one NFL GM said was the reason he pursued him. We don’t discuss it in the episode, but last year ESPN did a segment on his brother’s battle against a rare, aggressive skin cancer, and the hail mary blood marrow transplant Coach Shaw was able to provide his him, which saved his life.

    Michele Gelfand, Author & Cultural Psychologist: Is Your Culture Tight or Loose?

    Subscribe to the *free* newsletter here Click HERE to watch the video referenced in the intro. My guest today is Dr. Michele Gelfand, a Distinguished University Professor at the University of Maryland, College Park. Dr. Gelfand is a cultural psychologist and uses field, experimental, computational, and neuroscience methods to understand the evolution of culture--as well as its multilevel consequences for human groups. She’s also the author of Rule Makers, Rule Breakers: How Tight and Loose Cultures Wire the World, which is the focus of our conversation today. Coaches at all levels talk about building and creating the kind of culture that can produce wins, but what does that really mean? There is no one better to talk to about that than Michele. In this episode, she explains the framework she uses in the book to understand the difference between tight and loose cultures. She covers how social norms dictate whether a culture leans either tight or loose and the advantages and disadvantages of each. The episode is full of examples of companies and how they fit along this spectrum, including United Airlines, Uber, and her current work with the U.S. Navy. Resources Mentioned: Where to contact her: Twitter | LinkedIn | Website Her Harvard Business Review paper on the Amazon/Whole Foods acquisition Show Notes: (2:21) - How she became a cultural psychologist (3:38) - What led her to write Rule Makers, Rule Breakers: How Tight and Loose Cultures Wire the World (7:00) - How social norms help define cultures (9:00) - The strengths and weaknesses of both tight and loose cultures (12:20) - Advice for coaches on self-diagnosing where they fit on the tight-loose spectrum (17:10) - Examples of organizations and where they fit within this framework (24:30) - How to use this framework when hiring or looking to decide what organization is the best fit for you (27:00) - How to handle your culture leaning too far to either end of the tight-loose spectrum (29:30) - Her work with the U.S. Navy and how they are trying to implement some looseness within their culture (37:30) - Parenting advice based on the tight-loose framework (41:30) - End of episode questions End of Episode Questions: 1.    What’s 1 book every coach should read? You Gotta Have Wa by Robert Whiting 2.    Who is one person you’d want to hear as a guest on this podcast?  Carol Dweck 3.    What’s one area you’re looking to improve in over the next year?  Meditation 4.    What’s popular advice you hear people say that you think is wrong? Get to the task when negotiating. Her research shows that you actually need to get to know the person first so you signal that you respect them and gain their trust. 5.    What advice do you have for young coaches who are listening to this? Continue to search for your passion 6.    What’s the darkest moment you experienced professionally and how did you overcome it? Trying to get her paper on this topic published in Science. She got through it by having fun and saying she’d wear a costume if the paper was approved to be published Favorite Quotes: “All cultures have both tight and loose elements, but we could think about cultures in terms of their default. Do they lean tight or loose on this continuum?” “What we know from our research is that groups that get too extreme, either too tight or too loose, actually are really dysfunctional and that applies to nations, to organizations, and I would imagine also to sports teams. And for different reasons. When you have a lot of super tight rules, people feel uncomfortable questioning them. They feel like they’re walking on eggshells. Then we have less chance for catching mistakes and being willing to express them. And on the flip side, when you have too much looseness, it’s total chaos. I think back to the definition of social norms. Then we have no ability to coordinate and it’s a mess, and…we need some
