"Grow Old" by innerkid: ampl.ink/aKePP
Hi!
I don’t know what your goals are for this channel and these teachings, but I must tell you that your videos ( short, long or interviews) are now giving me a new definition of life. I had to go back and re evaluate a lot of teachings from my culture, society and religion. Your videos give me courage, introduce me to great books and they are not “ yellow self help” books! I am an Iranian and I see a lot of similar lines of wisdom in our literature ( Khayyam, Rumi, Nezami etc) but needed sets of practical rules more relatable to this century. I usually watch your videos, listen to your podcasts and read books when I need a wise friend. Sometimes I write to you in my journal and feel although we haven’t ever met or may not ever meet but my soul knows your soul and all the souls of all the great thinkers you mention or interview. You made me feel more human … Thank you.
What a really kind and thoughtful thing to say to Ryan. I often think of things I’d like to say or write to him. I too have found a way to live through Stoicism and his teachings and I am incredibly grateful for all that I have learned and implemented in my life. Anyway, I wanted to say I thought your comment was very nice. Have a great day 😊
@@Liahs333 Thank you. your comment filled my heart with joy...
@@hodagolshani6543 As did yours 💜💜
That's absolutely beautiful, Hoda! Always a joy to read such positive messages! Thanks for sharing
You're a strong, inspiring person yourself by what you wrote. May the world unite to make this world a better place. May we overthrow the tyrants that pollute our world.
Man so many of these old videos are great to listen to about the absolute certainty of “spreading Covid misinformation” while at the same time talking about being humble. My god have you been humbled…
One of the best interviews I've heard in a very long time and I'm 61 years old so that's a very long time! Thank you. Both of you are amazing and we need more of you around so keep talking. Seek justice. Love mercy. Walk humbly.💞
It's great when people un-asshole themselves!
16:51 - SG Being authentic . If you can be authentic about emotions and relationships there is a huge opportunity because most people don’t have the confidence.
17:57 - RH Jeff B speech quote on its easier to be clever than kind.
19:42 - SG Best revenge is to live really well or have a really good life.
23:45 - RH Just because you can doesn’t mean you should , Just because rightfully provoked doesn’t mean you should respond. Rare to see people who are restrained.
24:00 - SG Warriors are highly trained but hey keep their swords sheathed unless absolutely necessary. Its mental strength. You don’t need to hurt people just because you have millions of followers.
27:10 - SG About the time that you think you can't take it anymore . When you think you are out of your limit you are only at 30% of your limit. Its incredible what the body and mind are capable of.
28:20 - SG In Morgan stanley I used to go in to work at Tue night 9 am and work till Wed 5 and work through the night.
34:48 - SG Find 4-6 hrs a week of time you spend on your phone and reallocate it to Physical fitness.
37:00 - SG With fitness you can feel the strength so when you get into a room you can operate from a position of strength and kindness.
42:30 - SG Education used to be how to give bottom 90% and give them a shot at top 10%. Now it's about identifying the top 1% either your parents are rich or you are remarkable.
thank you, this is incredibly helpful
A certain amount of grace - is solid gold and badly needed.
What a pleasure it was to view this today. Scott, as a nursing instructor ata major Michigan university,I SO agree with your observation that universities need to open up more & that we need (as taxpayers) to push for a kind of Marshall plan for that to happen. I wish you were (are you?) teaching in college. specifically to young men, who, IMO have such a plethora of issues r/t masculinity. I have 2 daughters & a son & am an official "boomer". We were going to upend the society; reform what success was, make a more peaceful world, assure rights for POC & women. What happened to us? Half of my age group support a sociopathic, failed businessman who promotes violence & attempted (& is attempting to overthrow or gov.
Ryan, I've been watching, listening and reading your stuff for a few years now. This video is probably the best one you've done. Thank you for this.
I am listening to this old podcast, which is only old as when you broadcasted it. As it’s the kind of show which has no expiration date.
Where I found the need to write is when you poke about building mental & physical strength.
After a long life experience I definitely agree that those are the priorities in life in order to compete or simply live in a very competitive world. It builds confidence and we know that from mental lows always come mental highs.
Everything is normal & that’s what life is about.
One thing I often add is that Willpower is either one has or maybe needs to be built. Willpower is an essential or indispensable
Thank you for those so humble conversations. Those should be taught to youths 🇫🇷🇺🇸
Greetings from italy, i'm commenting under this video since it's the most recent. I want to express how glad i am that finally Stoic phylosophy is getting the spotlight it deserves. When i studied latin and phylosophy and read the Stoics (Marcus Aurelius,Seneca Epictetus) and the Epicureans (Epicurus, Lucretius) i was enthralled by the modernity of it all. Seneca's De brevitate vitae and De otio (on the briefness of life, on free time) really changed my worldview, and of course Marcus Aurelius meditations. Also, Cicero's De amicitia (on friendship) and a lot of his public orations (Pro Milone, Catilinariae, ecc.) are very interesting reads full of interesting quotes.
Lots of surprising comments here from Scott. I wasn’t a huge fan of his years ago but I gotta say I find him extremely refreshing now.
This is the most memorable and relevant (to my life) interview I've ever heard. Great conversation.
This was a fantastic conversation… Thank you for helping to stimulate thought!
Fantastic on so many levels, thank you both for modeling vulnerability and kindness as strength.
Great meditation to start the day=] Love the dialogue on kindness, authenticity, grace, and good living.
I um'd and ah'd about clicking on this one. Now I am so grateful for this interview, the guy is a treasure and had me asking some pretty tough questions about my own reactions and motivations towards others.
Enjoyed the bit about cultivating grace in the face of minor adversity.
So I am really enjoying this discussion and appreciate Ryan immensely for introducing me to stoicism as well as presenting it in a format that is easily accessible to the public. Amazing job. I would like to note that there seems to be a big difference in the mic volumes between you guys. I work night shift at a children's home and am trying to be quiet-ish lol. I have to adjust the volume down very quickly any time Ryan starts talking.
I am so grateful for this interview. The knowledge available here is priceless. Thanks!
Love the podcast. Only caveat is about the border. As a metaphor, I like water in my house (faucets, bath, washing machine); its necessary, useful and WANTED, but it's controlled. I do not stick a garden hose through my window and turn on the spigot.
Otherwise, I agree with so much of your podcast, love it as usual! :)
Nicely done. Couple of great guys talking. Loved it.
Great stuff. More people need to , at the very least, listen to this. It’s good simple wisdom.
Really enjoyed this talk. Have some graciousness, people! Be amazing! Restraint is not weakness! I love the story of working all night on Tuesdays.
2.27 gpa and Scott got into UCB’s MBA Program. His GMAT’s must have been galactic
Fantastic interview ❤️ Thanks so much for THIS!
It was a great episode.
Great conversation between two of my favorite thinkers. You should do this more often!
Two of my favorite people sharing wisdom. Kudos!! Thanks for sharing.
As a Gallohead I really enjoyed this interview.
GALLOWAY goes into safe zones where he is not challenged..he is basically coward....
Elon goat human
Great conversation. I’m glad I learned about your channel. I will be catching up on your other conversations.
This is so wild. 24:35. This exact wisdom came to me two days ago. A girl at my job kept trying to get me to stand up for myself and demand respect through certain tasks because she felt my managers were taking advantage of me. I kept telling her look now Is not the time and there’s a right time and place. She wouldn’t get it. I’m a black woman and instead of working at at the bar like I was hired to do my manager keeps having me work the door. I’d care but I have two jobs and dont have the time to argue with my new manager over this stuff when I’m actually trying to go on vacation in the beginning of January. The woman at the bar, who was hoping to do me a favor really couldn’t understand restraint. Later when I thought about it at home I realized that was my divine masculine speaking. All people should master their Devine masculine and feminine. 24:35
Fan of you both! Great interview!
Usually like this stoic but after the 100th or 200th bug zapper doing its work in the background I couldn't handle it anymore but sure would imagine there was some excellent takeaways
a lot of life wisdom in these 50 minutes, well done...
For the love of God, stop clicking the damn pen Scott!
Had to turn it off because of it. Interview sounded interesting though
Loved the Presidential Physical Fitness Award! I made Gold 4th - 8th grade. Got the patch and frameable( proud parents) award signed by LBJ and Nixon! Good times.
Great interview.
Calling out or addressing someone being an asshole or taking shit out on the wrong people is not the same thing as being vulnerable. You teach someone to be graceful by gracefully letting them know when they see doing wrong. theres a creative and artistic element to it. being in the moment requires addressing wrongs to maintain ones integrity. sometimes that means sticking your neck out. People dont learn the truth by misdirection. sometimes having tougher skin and understanding is the remedy. But in the end, only you know in the moment if youve reacted properly. Generally i have less fear, regret, and hurt immediately after a confrontation or disrespectful interaction.
I worked for KW. That’s an interesting cat.
Any Daily Stoic followers in Lithuania? :)
Great watch!
scott is da man , listen up kidds , great ending points
Hi Ryan--life does not suck!
Awesome chat. Thx
2:30 second in & I'm a fan. I can always find the best wisdom in the Stoic Universe! Thanks Ryan, Thanks Scott!
Amazingly intriguing conversation
Yaaa the mind can take a lot but don't push off the warning signs... Ended up with daily panic attacks and gastric issues... After red lining it for a few years.
there is some interesting points, i was on the "unremakable" in school, but i got myself together kinda in college, i still dont finish but they have good points, on giving everyone a shot, not everyone wants that, i want that bcs i like the challenge, but when you put merit on the scale, sadly you will have outliers, and some solutions arent as easy as to put more fresh men in college, its a lot more complex, but they adressed really good points and i took good notes about this, nice video :)
Excellent discussion!
13:55 amazing
Ryan, work on your sound mate. Hard to watch because of the sound quality.
Be stoic about it
Part of being a stoic is to never complain lol please accept things as they are. Amorfatti...
@@kikobiko7088promise Ryan wants to improve the audio experience where possible.
So if I order a meal at a restaurant and it’s cold or spoiled, I should be “stoic” about it?
@@TiagoNurembergno
I love the Prof G show!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Had no idea Elon was attacking Scott because I unfollowed Elon a while back because he was upsetting me & a girl can't be distracted from her own life by a celeb on twidder. Used to like him because I have some symptoms of being on the spectrum too. I'm not doing anything of his level (or even doing better than my parents when they were my age) or saving humanity, but i gotta chose my battles haha ✌🏼✌🏼
I believe it's all a PR move (no advertising but it's all strategic)
Can relate to Scott's Road rage thing, i used to be a baller hahah, we were literally discussing road-rage in our meditation group last evening.
Good discussion. But my God that snapping sound was hard to ignore.
I don't know anything about Scott Galloway, but after listening to this clip I've come to the conclusion that he is exactly the type of person you want leading the way. Ryan too. Why do we elect bozos whose only real skill is to yell into the microphone and divide people on issues that have emotional consequence, but really are of little importance.
Musks “extravagant” comments to left and right gets me to think about the saying that “Arrogance is a weed that grows on a dunghill.”.
Angela Merkel has many good attributes for a politician leading one of the top countries. She has also done many mistakes though and actually left very loudly by leaving Germany completely dependent on Russia for energy.
What is the alternative ?
Not completely depending on one source for energy
@20:30 best advice you can have for revenge for peace of mind :)
I like the comment having Grace with others. How many times do we encounter ignorant thoughtless people. Like someone jumping the queue. Or at a shop counter two assistances talking to each other and completely ignoring you? You start to feel annoyed this is were Grace comes in. Holding back your tongue 👅 not to lash out. Just say to yourself it’s the human condition!!! 😂 smile to yourself 😂 really it’s about being a better human being!
So CZcams changed everything. How do I print out a copy of a transcript? I don't understand why we can't have that. I understand it's cheaper to have the real time translator voice text but come on.
Enjoyable interview. I really appreciate going against the “body positive” its okay to be obese messaging. But what’s with the numerous not so subtle digs at anyone who questions the C19 narrative after all this time?
This should be compulsory viewing before anyone is allowed a position in business or politics.
Great interview! Go Highlanders!
As a German citizen I made it to 22 minutes if this episode. I was weirded out by Gallos severe lack of knowledge about his own government and quit when he began to speak about how great Angela Merkel is and how she put us, the German citizens, at first.
Great
Scott has mentioned a few times how he wasnt really notable when he was younger. the fact that he was on the crew team, pushing himself until near blackout is extremely unique. perhaps not unique on his crew team but i suspect even in that context it was. he said he was the least physically talented which tells me in order to keep up he was willing to go until exhaustion. Sounds a little like dan gable.
Hey! CZcams is not letting me like your video. I've tried several times and it won't let me. Could it because of the theme? Is CZcams censoring you?
I have never liked Scott, but this honest and open discussion about life and being a man brought me to tears. Thank you Scott!
PS for Ryan: Why insult those who didn't want the vaccine? Very lame and disappointing from you, esp since the whole subject was about being less tribal and divisive.
Thank God for my generation and the rise of video games 🏆✊💫
We’ve helped so many people improve hand eye coordination and working together with others while creating so many jobs, The gaming industry is the most important part of this 100 years history 🥇
Fascinating that we are hearing more and more on this show that we have to be so happy with "our elected representatives" and "the government." The Senate passes "amazing laws," is actually being said.
Stop it. There have always been Stoics that were against their government, and Stoics that were working for them. Cato himself was extremely outspoken (you could even say aggressive). And he wasn't the only one. The idea that being positive, sweet and compromise-minded is somehow Stoic is sheer nonsense.
Other than that, certainly some very good other points. Loved what he said about being authentic by acting from your positive emotions (while dealing with negative emotions the Stoic way, meaning by arguing them out).
Yes
Great point. You have to realize that Galloway is a hardcore democrat from New York. So he is 100% loves and supports anything that Biden or Pelosi do.
The made in America movement will save us. Made here. Consumed here. Real change. #BeStoicUSA
Really appreciate this conversation, a lot to take away from it.
Question: I know you said that Angela Merkel's tweet is classy for saying her retirement will be boring unremarkable or etc, isn't that just her own way to add more into the ridiculous arguments all over Twitter? Wouldn't it have been better leadership to not say anything at all? By saying that 'pun' or whatever you can call that, as small as it was in comparison to what other leaders and politicians do, it's still playing the game of getting back at someone. My thoughts.
PS. There's a sound in the background that I had to fight against since it was so distracting 😅😅 was it Ryan opening and closing a bottle often?
@31:04 -- Something like only 28% of 18-year-olds are considered ready for military service -- with the three most common reasons being lack of physical fitness, criminal record, not teachable enough.
Does anyone know what the intro themes song is?
Why isn't this on Spotify?
It is! open.spotify.com/episode/75W6EXkWz2R2Sftt1U4wF4?si=2sJ79xy1R0i-f7h9SaBcQQ
Bro looks like he gonna score a bicycle kick in the CL finale
My thought on Elon is stress and lack of sleep drives a lot of his unpredictability. Also a misfire on the occasional social cues are a subset of being on the spectrum. Plus his childhood was quite strained and that shows itself in his outbursts. I admire his work ethic and drive, but question his aggression towards competition and employees. It is possible to work hard and be a good person at the same time.
Yes as fat people we get it 😒 exercise and eat well but that doesn't mean we're not pretty or attractive. Love my boi Jordy B, but fuck what he said. Pretty and fat are not mutually exclusive ideas and a person can embody both. There's a lot of people in the world and there's more than one way to live a good life.
dude looks like Walter White without the emotional baggage
I like when Elon challenged Putin to an MMA fight.
This was awesome, definitely the video some young men need to watch instead of following people like Andrew Tate
People hate Andrew Tate for no real reason.....it's sad.
he adivice on tesla would have either lost people money or robbed them of an opportunity.
Eating shitty, unhealthy food and being obese is in fact a choice. It's not hard or expensive to buy some potatoes, carrots, canned beans, lettuce, etc. People decide to be fat or healthy on their own. They don't a "program" or to be "setup" to eat well. Very simple.

Bro everyone should give up golf 😂
Maybe personal philosophy should be to do no harm.
To be completely fair, going on an incredibly popular platform to talk in specifics about an issue that you moved on from, isn’t exactly moving on from it. 🤷🏼♀️
In just the first few minutes you got to call Musk an asshole, defend your position, and still take credit for taking the highroad. 😂
While I do think there’s an important lesson in the situation, the irony is pretty amusing.
6:25.. I hear ya...
And, at the same time... Isn't it true that a certain amount of cockiness actually Fuels our hormones and adrenaline, that actually facilitates that level of Drive???
A perfect role model would be great!!!
Yet, on planet Earth School, we still have quite a way to go...
We Are getting better! 😁
I prefer ppl showing their real characters. They re not our teachers or our role models, it’s really a practice to observe and to think independently. Government and politicians are not civil masters, indeed, it s not an easy jobs!! We Ppl demand the politicians to work for us. That s why not everyone can be politicians, we want them to be tough, do not take things personal, do not overly sensitive but being articulate and sharp to see things and make right choices!!

Who is Scott Galloway ?
Agg college professor who specializes in soy production.
I love Scott, but clicking the pen cap is such an amateur move while being interviewed.
I disagreed with a lot in this (the guest) and with ryan on the all the pandemic stuff which is coming to light more each day. If you only get one flow of info you never know of the other stuff. I like Ryan and respect what he is doing though.
Keep going easy on Senators. Look Nancy Palosi and her husband with inside trades.
Please stop the distracting background music .🙏
Love Ryan. Galloway could take a humble pill and listen a tad more. With that said I appreciate how he likes to take the higher road. But hes too cool for school.
Yeah he's definitely a pretentious pompous ass
it must be difficult to be truly stoic in the USA where capitalism is so prevalent, perhaps we are all epicureans hoping to become as stoic as possible. "making more money" was an interesting departure from what was being said (assume wealth wasn't an issue). This points to not having enough... or maybe more for charitable causes.
I guess being completely diogenistic (if I could create a verb out of him), is a step too far in our modern world.
loved the talk, better tomorrow.
I’d take Michael Phelps over some famous smack talking athletes. Do good things from the inside. Drive yourself without stepping on and over others.
Only 30%?? 😅
Several thoughts
1. I am big fan of Holiday stoicism and Galloway's views of young males in today's society.
2. Galloway and Holiday spent the majority of this video stating how self righteous and wonderful they are and what bad human beings Elon Musk and Trump are. In the process they called them A-holes and used the F word to describe them.
3. Galloway has to come clean that he is a hardcore democrat and a former CNN contributor. He is also a professor at NYU. You can not get more liberal than this. Both Galloway and Holiday should keep to philosophy and stay away from politics. Galloway also needs to tune down his massive narcissistic ego.
4. If you look at the liberal Left's comments from Hollywood, media, academia, Fauci, Big Tech and of course the Democrats they have been vicious to Trump and his supporters. Did anyone ever get beat up or fired for wearing an Obama hat? Galloway has to stop his delusional belief that his side is the righteous side.
I get some of your point! But trump is a criminal and don't understand how supporters can't see that
I have my criticism of Elon but you or I have no place saying a bad word about the guy. You do need to "be that guy". Just sit in the corner and do your amusing commentary without the baseless claims calling people sociopaths, seeing the worst in everyone, and making obvious predictions that somehow Swisher finds "refreshing"... haha. And highly doubt he gets high as NASA tests him often for SpaceX. He's no saint but he will be one of the top 5 people remembered for the next thousand years (if he gets Starship working). Be kind just like you say.
