              • Coté: Rick Rubin interviews Rory Sutherland. I doubt much of the airport business book stuff in here is “true,” but that’s sort of the whole point, and it’s fantastic listening. His book Alchemy has a great one word review right there in the title. But, again: it’s fun! When you’ve listened to too much If Books Could Kill you can check in on Rory if you need to take the cure.
