#306: Discipline, Sex, Psychedelics, and More The Return of Drunk Dialing

Published: March 28, 2018, 7 p.m.

This episode is a rare exception to the rule -- unlike my usual long-form interviews, this is a drunk-dialing Q&A with you guys, which I\u2019ve done a few times in the last few years, including for the celebration of the 100th episode of this podcast. In preparation for this episode, I solicited phone numbers from listeners who wanted to receive a call from me, and then I started drinking and dialing, answering questions and getting a little frisky along the way.

In this episode, I cover topics such as:

  • How Jocko Willink has made me more disciplined
  • My thoughts on sex as a \u201cdoorway to a higher perception\u201d
  • My past experience with stimulants and psychedelics
  • How I determine if a project is working or not. In other words, how do I decide when I should persevere or quit a project and move on?
  • How I think about teaching
  • And much, much more!

Please enjoy this tequila-fueled Q&A!
