I had never heard of Soman before, and this episode was a pure delight from start to finish. Loved the "card category" structure for the conversation: as playful and creative as the back-and-forth itself. This sparked a lot of ideas - you both are super inspiring. Thank you! 🙏
Awesome conversation on so many levels.. the Ketamine part where he said "do you know how to have fun".. holy cow that hit home.. I did my first mushroom trip a while back and apart from being one hell of an experience (I don't take drugs and rarely drink) the doom feeling being lifted was the main thing I noticed immediately after.. For 2 weeks I was thinking my god is this what normal feels like!..I didn't realise I was back at not knowing how to have fun again.. even the faking fun part.. man amazing conversation. The quarter back stuff is spot on as well.. really enjoyed the whole thing.
Same here! So relatable. Obsessed with my novel idea and feel like nobody's done it yet. It's making life bearable at the moment, and I hope one day it will inspire others. I'd be really interested in Soman's process.. I have >300 pages of notes written and have to organise them by typing them up in a linear way.
The insights on storytelling and career lessons from Taylor Swift were particularly enlightening. For entrepreneurs, understanding the power of narrative can be a game-changer - consider how Apple's "1984" ad revolutionized marketing by telling a story that resonated with an entire generation. It's not just about the product, it's about the story you weave around it that captures the imagination.
Tim I'm sure you will find someone great for you! You're right we need someone different to us. I am a writer, and my husband does not understand my need to hide in a room alone and write my novel for hours. He doesn't need to understand. I don't need to understand his love for numbers and investing, but I can look and appreciate!
42:38 I find it fascinating and insightful for me…this idea of having a “backup” to take away the financial pressure of releasing creative work. How many of us don’t release creative work because of the actual fear of releasing the work…at any cost, financial risks be damned? Or just me? Do you not releases creative work due to 1) cost 2) fear
I don't often get to watch these over video. But today's was awesome to tune in partnership with the video. Great conversation and interaction. To more of these. Also, let's chat Cockpunch Timmy!

Man, Soman is incredibly fascinating and brilliant 🔥
Very creative and imaginative, rare features!
I am a long time listener and I really enjoyed the apparent fun you had during the interview. Just good vibes 🎉
You’ve got the most amazing friends Tim! You are a lucky guy. Thanks for another great couple of hours really enjoyed it.

One of the best conversations on the planet unfolding organically without time pressure.... Even sex is not often this good.
What a joyful conversation ☘️
Great episode as usual. Thanks for everything Tim!

Where are the timestamps????
Side note: Soman's voice sounds great on that Shure SM7B mic.
Misogi is the first and the only thing I know about that Tim doesn’t hooray 😁

“getting dimishing returns for the ghost of the past work” - wow
This was amazing!
I LOVE that B.J. Novak is invoked after Soman has used "100%" earlier in the conversation. Subtle. Poignant. Reference: 2022 film Vengeance.
I like the movie so much and thank you for sharing good thoughts.
What about healing from multiple traumas have crippling complex ptsd ??
How do you acquire the financial freedom to write one book every decade? That could be a book all to itself!
