Been waiting for this for weeks! Thanks guys!
RE; Tim Ferris im stealing that "well id like to bounce that question back to you" and Chris when you were "forced" to respond to your own question I think your responses are an indication of how well you are doing as a podcaster. For example each time you were asked to answer your own question you revealed the depth of interest you had behind the question in other words it showed you truly had an interest in the discussion and that you weren't just " filling a role" which I think is the reason your podcasts have always stuck out for me. Incredible listen! Ive been waiting for this one!

Hey Chris! Would you pretty please let your friend Timothy know that I am trying to ask him on a date 🫶 not sure if he gave me the wrong number or if I got trolled but I’ve been on survivor twice and so I thrive in a challenge 😄 if you want to come to a midsummers fest in Stockholm you both would be more than welcome 🌼

Hi @timferriss i have a cabin in the Norwegian mountains, no electricity just the presence of nature. If you’d be interested in a 10min zoom date and we click, we could go on a hike and ski date when you feel like traveling.

Loving 🥰 the content and wondering if Goggins let them folks test his temperature TWICE 😂😮💛 Thanks for reporting after all the probing Tim!
I like this a lot!
Jason statham ?
Tim has a black belt in podcast judo.
Agreed !
My current #1 favorite podcaster interviewing the guy who got me hooked on podcasts 10 years ago. Can't get much better, thanks Chris 🙏🏻
I think a lot of people relate to this or nearly this (maybe not first but one of the first and maybe not #1 but too 5-10/etc). Epic meeting of minds❤️
I haven’t listened to Tim much lately so this has been a reminder of how much insight he always brings. And it feels like catching up with an old friend.

THANK YOU!
Thanks! - I ventured into the youtube comments just for this list!
Kudos ❤
I went to put one of the books on my Amazon list and it recommended the rest of the books in the list 🤣Looks like this episode is changing the algorithm!
Thank you!
I can't believe Whispers of Manifestation on Borlest isn't a hot topic. It's an incredible read
I love what he said "if you can single-task for 2-3 hours a day, focusing on the highest leverage tasks, you'll be ahead of 99% of the population. "
Tim’s advice hasn’t changed in almost 10 years. Truly sticks to the basics. Love it
what was his advice ten years ago?
Having such content available for free is one of the major perks of the time we live in.
Thank you to the best two in the business 🤝
This conversation feels like two brothers catching up after a year apart- intimate, insightful, and as close as ever.
This man’s book changed my life. The 4-hour work week inspired me to travel and live outside of my home in Canada and 4 years later I’m still living that life
Any advice? I'll read it too but I want to travel more
@@BorisBidjanSaberi11 be making at least $1000 USD / month online before starting to live the nomadic life. The book itself and websites/practical advice i would say is a little outdated but the principles inside still apply. If I would do it again, maybe I would have gone to Thailand or Vietnam, somewhere cheaper than Colombia/Ecuador which is where I started this journey
Tim Ferriss is and will always remain the GOAT
Goat of what?
As a 25yo with 4 children and the oldest is 5. The only answer for "but they're jumping on my solar plexus at 6am!" Is simply wake up earlier... He's right! Its the most annoying thing! But it's MUCH EASIER to change yourself and your habits than ANYONE ELSES - Even your kids. ❤️
my boy was BUSY, a 4-peat is crazy on kids 😂
How tf you 25 with 4 damn kids 😂😂😂😂😂 you had your first at 10?😭😂😂😂 busy bee
Your must be an wonderful adventure most women dream having after they gurl boss thier lives in 30s
It must feel incredible to have Tim Ferriss tell you that he's inspired watching You execute at such a high level. Just take that clip and play it back next time you're feeling a spell of melancholy.
The 4-hour body and workweek when they were released changed the course of my life to a healthy, entrepreneurial, and adventurous journey .... forever grateful to Tim and will always be a big fan!
Are you a bot?
@@timoneill6931pretty sure you're just a Hater.
This is immediately up there with the best of your podcasts Chris. There was felt respect between both of you that allowed for what presented as a real open and honest conversation.
Best backgrounds yet. These dynamic environment pods have been super sick
Maybe the best Tim Ferriss Interview… That's saying a lot!
Chris every time you ask a guest "what would you say to someone who......" I find that this directly ties to myself. You know your audience, don't stop asking these things. Cheers mate.
"It makes me sad to think that somebody can have the capacity to do great things, and then not do the interpersonal thing to pay that forward" Chris Williamson. For some of us, (myself included) interpersonal work wasn't taught and we think we have the everything under control, but it's what we don't know, that we don't know, that often does the most damage. Thank you to both Chris and Tim for doing what you do and encouraging more people to truly look inward.
Crazy to watch the guy I grew up listening to in Tim Ferris and learning incredible amounts to now being a bit older and loving Chris's new content. These podcasts make me so much happier and more successful. I attribute becoming an entrepreneur to Tim and being a better human because of Chris. So much gratitude for these guys. 🙏💪
A modern wisdom cinema production! What a perfect name!
This is simply gorgeous.
The aesthetic satisfaction the show now has on top of the quality of conversation is simply astonishing.
Cheers to you and your team.
Indeed
I have been a fan of Tim Ferriss since 2012. This episode was just so informative, fun and generally wholesome.
Your production value and your continuous personal improvement as a podcaster, really shows. Well done, Chris. From a random stranger on the internet, well done. Your content matters.
The Rock and Stone Cold of podcasting 🔥
Indeed
Chris needs to get Stone Cold on his podcast ..a pro wrestler coming on would be a nice break from traditional guests
AndJoe Rogan is Hulk Hogan?
i love Tim talking about fame. a conversation i always find fascinating. i think his blog post about fame is one of the best I've ever read.
Tim is honestly one of the best dudes out there you can learn from. And if you do, your life will likely improve from the same day. Not for everyone. Thanks Tim for all you do.
Dude, lovely production! :) And also a long overdue interview with the original.. much appreciated!
Tim's insights on effectiveness versus efficiency are spot on! 🎯 Choosing the right tasks and having a clear definition of success are essential for long-term progress and fulfillment in both personal and professional endeavors.
This was one the best interviews I’ve ever listened to. Thank you for the deep thought and energy put into each discussion point, this quality of content is hard to find!!
As a father of two girls under 4 years old and a husband the discussions on importance of family relationships and self care prioritization really hit home and validated a lot of the imbalance I constantly feel. Now I will put it in the calendar and stop postponing myself and my family.
Ok, now I understand the screens, post production, the works. This looks/sounds awesome!
I didn't envision this collab but was so happily surprised to see Tim here
How is it possible to have a 3hr conversation and do nothing more than share sound bites and cliches - Genius level
If you listen to your heart you won’t need these grifters.
@@timoneill6931 Harsh! There are some good little nuggets of wisdom in there.
@@timoneill6931Hater. Unsuccessful hater at that
This will go down in podcast history.
For sycophants
What a fantastic episode there Chris!
It's condensed and full of practical takeaways, and you get a deep exposure into such two great minds!
Fantastic conversation. A key takeaway from this is that the whole 'Optimisation Project' is finally reaching a dead end. Thank goodness.
Amazing interview. Chris: it would be really cool if you wrote a book compiling all the best things you've learned from your guests. Condescending all the most useful lessons from your podcast into a concise book would create an invaluable resource.
The production quality of this podcast has improved so much, this has to be one of my favourite sets, keep it up Chris!
The podcasting game is evolving but we often forget that communication is the ultimate technology. Chris combines both (not easy). Happy to see Chris & Tim sharing a table.
Makes me wonder what podcasts will be like in say 10 years? I wonder if they will ever decline in overall interest?
@@brianmeen2158 good question. And who knows? But certainly, humanity needs more conversations like this.
Is podcasting the best format? Dunno but it is now. Perhaps it will mold in a slightly different format in the future.
I'm grateful that Tim exists, thank you Tim Ferris for sharing good in a strange planet
This is an incredible podcast for anyone looking to optimize their own life and begin to perform to the levels excepted from yourself.
Massive thank you Tim & Chris
Can't wait for the 4-hour Daddy book 👍
Tim never fails to deliver. Always excited to hear him on podcasts.
Literally, my two top favorite podcasters! 🙌
Absolutely incredible
Chris, second half of this was exceptional. Great questions. Great pacing. One of your best. Great stuff 🙏🏾
That prefrontal cortex game is strong with this one. How do I get a forehead like that?
Lmao
Absolutely love this podcast! Great interview!
Hi @timferriss i have a cabin in the Norwegian mountains, no electricity just the presence of nature. If you’d be interested in a 10min zoom date and we click, we could go on a hike and ski date when you feel like traveling.
Sounds like a dream. Rather that than going to Thailand
Maybe hit him up on his channel, he probably didn't see your comment here
@@TaylorThoughts I like your thoughts Taylor, thanks! Just posted a comment on his community channel. Hopefully he will see it :)
Oh Christina you little charmer I like your style lol
My kinda life
I love the way the studio looks.💯💯. Great Studio + Great Conversation= Dope + Life Changing Transformation. I love the conversation
I'm 16 currently watching this episode, I have big dreams of being on the Modern Wisdom podcast one day even if its just one episode. Chris's conversations with his guess are so inspirational and extremely interesting to listen to. Without a doubt Modern Wisdom is my favorite podcast. Thank you so much to your team and your guests for providing so much value in a world dominated by shortform content and low attention spans, I hope you keep producing them for a long time to come.
Two of you could the greatest duo in the podcast world
Beautiful to the ear and to the eye. Bravo guys!
The most optimized people on the internet right now, these guys are efficient!!
This is best podcast of all time easily, very good job! Also the new backrounds are amazing, so much more fun and liveable experience to watch and it feels like you are in the room.
Can you or anyone else recommend some other similiar podcasts? With similiar topics and type of quests?
I would suggest Huberman's podcast with David Goggins as guest. And Rogan's podcast with Naval Ravikant as guest. Theo Von with Tony Robbins. Brene Brown with Lisa Lahey.
@@SamenWerkend Thanks for The recommendations🙏
Really enjoyed this pod. TYVM Chris and Tim.
this was actually a very helpful listen! Thank you Chris!👏👏
whether you like it or not Tim is been great positive influence in many, many people
Official weigh-in. Watched the behind the scenes as well. Video wall rocks, makes an epic conversation even more awe-inspiring. Well done crew!
Incredible talk. Thanks a lot for sharing this with us
Chris, I’m glad you do the ad unique each time. Helps with the flow, and piggybacking on the interview content- it gives you the reps to get better at selling well and I’m sure it helps get more ads.
Just a rouge thought
This is brilliant. I've followed Tim for two decades and now you Chris for around 6mths. Great conversations. I like the background too! Quite Albert Hall like!
Chris's response to name of the wind is spot on, unbelievable book
Less than 2 minutes in, and I have cleared the entire next 3 hours! What a pairing. Great conversation ❤
Brilliant podcast. I now have a list of 30 things to do/buy/read.
Tim Ferriss and 3h? Chris, you're a hero!
Your studio with the backgrounds is really growing on me. Great stuff.
This was a fantastic episode. I love how Tim put up guard rails around things like psychedelic usage etc. Although I suggest there’s a lot of research that contradicts your views on ketamine treatments. That being said, I do agree that all ketamine treatments should be other form of infusion inside a clinic with a psychotherapist involved. At our micro hospital in Austin we used quite often to also assist with non narcotic detox protocols. It was a game changer. I did a loading phase of 6 infusions in 2 weeks and 1 per month for 3 months after. Saved my life from depersonalization disorder.
Love the background. Makes want to watch, not just listen. Good upgrade👍
Thanks Chris!!! Watching this AMAZING and FREE interview, It felt like watching a bonus Master Class. Once again... thank you.
My life is better because of Tim Ferris. Thanks for this Chris!
P.S. Love the cinematic (slightly artificial) flair.
Lessgo, Thanks Chris for this incredible podcast♥️
Such eloquence from both, I can only admire their journey and strive to do better on my own!
I find it peculiar that a interview such as this doesn’t get nowhere near as many views as your videos touching on depression, male loneliness and other negative emotions. It’s as if we are not only drawn to depression but tend to bask in its ambience without actually doing anything to get out of it, much like when you talk about your goals that can suffice and you never actually take steps to get there. Something like this interview has way more information to actually move forward with your life practically in my eyes.
I have actively stopped watching all of the interviews & shorts that for me personally glamourise male loneliness, depression and nihlism and it’s hard as they gave me an identity to adopt. I have tilted my gaze towards entrepreneur interviews and more positive podcasts in hope that will reorientate my way of thinking.
I knew I'd love this conversation
Outstanding episode.
Excellent episode!
Loved this podcast by Tim Williamson!
This Podcast's recommendations are Beyond Increadible.
Truly grateful for you both.
Sanity sensemaking brain gym, indeed.
💜

I am so glad that the book Red Rising get some media attention. This is one of the most well written series I have come across.
The characters and their development is such an experience.
Especially the first three books are an amazing ride with every entry getting better and ending with a satisfying climax.
Thank you so much! Greetings from Mexico!!! 💚
Amazing conversation 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Really enjoyed this podcast! Took so much from it. 💫✨️💥
My two absolute favourite conversationalists in one frame together! Life couldn’t get better ❤
and they are also single ;)
@@meetpetru lol but how to meet them??
That is an awesome setting for the video.
It is hard to ignore the bobbsey twin vibe, but what a great talk - love these two!
Great episode!
Brilliant! I wish more podcast hosts asked their guests the book and « the thing » question
Tim and Chris in space... excellent! 🥰
Tim Ferris, I matched with you on a dating app back in 2014. For some reason you sound like a difficult person to date, but I love your content.
No way! I wonder how your lives would have turned out had you got into a relationship
He was too short for you
difficult in what way
Maybe she saw the truth.
Video wall is so epic, Chris is a genius.
Buzzing to see this one!
Great pod!!
Been waiting for this one since I heard about it 😎
That scene change was epic, well done guys!
I have been waiting for Chriss to drop this. Finally
2 and a half hours in, what a conversation. Can't wait to have you both on my show
I've found an interesting place where the talk about hypervigilance lands for me. I've been trying to improve in a competitive videogame that I've played for about 7 years now, and too much hypervigilance was destroying my mental.
What Chris said about focusing on how you feel during the activity versus the outcome is very important, if you only focus on winning then you start to lose. Conversely, if you focus on having fun, finding humor in your mistakes, and being a team player, everything starts to come together.
I just play better when I do all the other habits related to health and wellness, who would have guessed
