3Q Talk Podcast

Vince has been my guest and we chatted about a bunch of things, purposely missing school, hustling the way to success, playing poker, allowing oneself to screw up and many more things. Join us on this brief look into Vince’s life.

Tom stopped by to answer all my questions about living with Tourette Syndrome. When did it first start, how does it manifest, what kind of treatment options are there etc. How and why he did a TEDx talk, how and why he did a bone marrow donation and a whole bunch of additional chat.

Today I had the honor of speaking with Ben Arnon who recently left his cushy corporate job at Google (and before that a large Startup, Yahoo, Universal Pictures etc)  to pursue a full time career in creative expression, mainly blogging (for the Huffington Post) and Photography. Ben has traveled in Rio recently not just photographing the athletes but also venturing out to the city and beaches to capture life. We also talked about purpose, worries, the startup world, his passions and how he met Arianna Huffington.

Ben’s work is currently on display in 8 exhibits, the largest being Chelsea Market in NYC. You can see his work on his Website and over at HuffPo.

Ben has been on the show before, we talked about travel and pursuing the life in the moment. A few months and a few trips later we are talking again. Ben just returned from Pyongyang / North Korea where he participated in a Marathon race. We talked about getting in, getting around, the experience during the race and impressions he collected during the trip. Headphone on!

You may have heard about TheSwedishNumber.com a website by the Swedish Tourism Board. It’s simple you call a number (+46 771 793 336) and get connected to a random Swede. Well that’s exactly what I did and ended up talking to Isak for half an hour about Stockholm, Ikea and how to make it as a Stand-Up Comedian. Enjoy!

Meet Beth, who just sold me a used Toyota Sienna (the second so far) and learn about her experience with being gay in the 80s, legally getting married after 25 years, adopt a child and be a successful and respected person who is now starting a political career. In the usual form, we’ve been talking without a script or manual and topic jump a little here and there. Enjoy listening to Beth’s story!
