There are a lot of podcasts on the subject of Mental Models, Better Thinking, Problem Solving and Decision Making.
And honestly, I’ve tried listening to most of them.
But the one I keep coming back to, over and over again, is The Knowledge Project Podcast (Farnam Street) by Shane Parrish.
If you are new to learning from the world’s experts, uncovering the best of what other people have already figured out so you can use their insights in your life, here’s why I would recommend blocking an hour per week to listen and study every episode:
Reason #1: Distilled Insights
Insights in each episode are distilled information from years and years of learning, try&error, research and expertise. It is PRICELESS.
Reason #2: No Bullshit
The podcast is an attention game. The more the podcaster keeps your attention in their episode, the more money they get, which sometimes leads to bullshitting over a long period. But not in this one. Insight per minute is over the roof.
Reason #3: Immediate Action
You can apply those insights immediately because you’ll learn many details about better thinking, problem-solving, and decision-making.
