April 10, 2023Robert F. Kennedy Jr. | The Man Who Could Be President
This is the only interview James ever recorded that wasn't released on the podcast…until today.
In July 2019, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. joined James for an interview at Stand Up New York, where the pair discussed RFK Jr's book American Values: Lessons I Learned from My Family amidst a wide-ranging conversation on the Kennedy Family, the role money plays in American politics, and the cost of fossil fuel-based energy compared to renewable energy sources.
Around the 50-minute mark in the conversation, the topic pivots, following a discussion on the post-WW2 tax rates and the rise of billionaires such as Bill Gates. James questions Kennedy's view on Gates - given the Microsoft founder's pledge to donate large sums of money to charity and his vaccine efforts to eradicate malaria in Africa - to which Kennedy responds, "Bill Gates has done more harm to the planet than arguably anybody in history." Kennedy believes that many vaccines are ineffective and harmful to the populace and that Gates' efforts in Africa have caused the deaths of "millions and millions of children".
Kennedy continues to discuss The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act (NCVIA) of 1986, which limited the potential financial liability of vaccine manufacturers due to vaccine injury claims, and how three years later, "There was a 'gold rush' and it went from the three vaccines that [Kennedy] had, to the seventy-two vaccines kids have to get today. And suddenly, beginning in 1989, [America] saw this explosion of chronic disease in this country."
Following the divisive turn in the conversation, the show decided against airing this interview. However, on April 6, 2023, Kennedy announced his plans to run for President in the 2024 election and will formally declare his candidacy at an event on April 19, 2023. Due to its topical relevance, The James Altucher Show has decided to air the previously unreleased 2019 interview in full.

April 06, 2023 The Power of Mindfulness: Overcoming Fear and Cultivating Self-Discovery | Case Kenny
In today's episode, James invites Case Kenny, a mindfulness mentor and the host of the "New Mindset, Who Dis?" podcast, to explore the topic of the "law of attraction" and whether it is a legitimate concept or just pseudoscience. The "law of attraction" is a belief that the universe responds to your thoughts and feelings, and by focusing on positive energy, you can attract positive outcomes in your life.During the conversation, James and Case delve into the practice of mindfulness and how it can be used to cultivate self-fulfillment. They discuss the power of journaling or self-storytelling as a tool for introspection and self-discovery, and how this practice can help people to better understand themselves and their goals. Additionally, they explore the importance of taking pride in your work, and how this mindset can lead to a greater sense of purpose and fulfillment.Finally, the pair discuss Case's series of journals, used by a community of over 300,000, including The 60 Day New Mindset Journal, Single is Your Superpower, Unbothered, and But First, Inner Peace.------------What do YOU think of the show?

March 30, 2023 Cracking the Code of Aging: Inside "Project Blueprint" | Bryan Johnson
Bryan Johnson has been many things in his life, but the founder of Braintree Venmo's current passion is being - in his parlance - a "Professional Rejuvenation Athlete". Over the past two years, Bryan developed Project Blueprint, a comprehensive health regimen designed to reverse the aging process and increase longevity. After struggling with unhealthy eating habits, Johnson "fired himself" and dedicated his time to researching and experimenting with different health and wellness techniques. He used data-driven approaches to optimize his diet, exercise, and other lifestyle habits, with the goal of improving his overall health and extending his lifespan.In his first year of following Project Blueprint, Johnson achieved remarkable results, reducing his epigenetic age by 5.1 years in just seven months. This amounts to an average age reversal of .73 years per month, a significant accomplishment in the field of anti-aging research.One of the unique aspects of Johnson's approach is his gamification of the age-reversal process. He created The Rejuvenation Olympics, an online leaderboard open to the public designed to motivate himself and others to stay on track with their age reversal goals and to have a public forum to share protocols and validated results for age rejuvenation. This approach helps turn the often daunting task of improving one's health into a fun and engaging game.Johnson also employs a problem-solving approach he calls Zeroth Principle Thinking, which involves breaking down complex problems into their most fundamental components and solving them systematically. This approach helped him create his Goal Alignment Problem, which involves aligning his daily actions and habits with his long-term health goals.One notable aspect of Project Blueprint is that it's available to anyone, free of charge. Johnson has made the information and tools he's developed publicly accessible, with the hope of helping as many people as possible achieve better health and a longer lifespan.Overall, Bryan Johnson's Project Blueprint represents an innovative and data-driven approach to health and longevity, with potential implications for the broader field of anti-aging research.------------What do YOU think of the show?

March 28, 2023 The Cure for America's Societal Problems | Tim Urban
In this episode of the James Altucher Show, James sits down with Tim Urban, author of the popular blog "Wait But Why" to discuss his latest book What's Our Problem? A Self-Help Book for Societies.Tim Urban is known for his ability to explain complex topics in a relatable way, and this interview is no exception. James and Tim explore a variety of societal issues, including the increasing polarization of American society in the past decade. They delve into the reasons behind this polarization, including the concept of societal echo chambers versus idea labs.One of the key insights that Tim shares from his book is that there are two games being played in the socio-political world. The first game, which Tim calls "Political Disney World", is the game that both the left and the right are playing with each other. In this game, each side views themselves as heroes and the opposition as villains, with no middle ground. The second game, which is the unspoken nuance that many individuals silently agree with but are scared to voice their opinions for fear of being expelled from their spoken tribe, is what Tim calls "Game 2".Tim emphasizes the need for players of "Game 2" on both sides of the political spectrum to push back against "Game 1" because the current state of affairs is actually harmful to effectively promoting the ideals of either in the present.James and Tim also touch upon the concept of an idea spectrum, which gravitates between thinking like a scientist on one pole, a sports fan in the middle, and a zealot at the other pole. They discuss how individuals can move away from a zealot mindset and towards a more scientific mindset, which involves seeking out new information and being open to changing one's beliefs based on that new information.Throughout the conversation, Tim shares practical solutions for creating a more cohesive and harmonious society, emphasizing the importance of empathy and communication in solving societal issues.Listen on for a fresh perspective on the challenges we face as a society and actionable solutions for creating a better future.
