Just spent 40 joy-packed minutes on Angela Mazzi’s podcast arguing that the quickest route to genius is a well-timed face-plant into stupidity. Angela, thanks for trusting me with a live mic! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the…

Most of my best ideas have arrived while I was pretending to be productive. So this week on Dumbify, I made a case for doing absolutely nothing. Not optimizing it. Not reframing it. Just... letting it happen. 🎧 Listen here → open.spotify.com/episode/2PbzxW…

I block time on my calendar to space out. Not meditate. Not journal. Just… wander mentally. London cabbies do it. So do Nobel winners. Turns out, zoning out is a brain upgrade. Here’s why I do it (and why you might want to): 👉 dumbify.beehiiv.com/p/why-i-schedu…

Nonsense sells. The human brain is a magpie for the absurd. If you're curious about the art of making a fortune by selling nothing, then this week’s Dumbify episode is for you. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how…

This week’s Dumbify connects CPR and karaoke. Not metaphorically. Literally. One saves your life. The other ruins "Bohemian Rhapsody." Both depend on rhythm and panic. 👇 dumbify.beehiiv.com/p/why-the-best…

I'm OBSESSED with Richard Feynman. Not because he was brilliant (though he was). Because he was willing to look absolutely ridiculous in front of his colleagues. And it made his career. Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/1wW3XB… Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how…

This week I follow one gloriously dumb idea—"Fake My Run"—far enough to expose why so many of us would rather post a workout than actually sweat through one. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the…
