Think of this podcast like Cliff's Notes. Brian gives bullet points from virtually every piece of inspirational or self-improvement literature from the past two or three decades. If you're looking to improve yourself, listening to his podcast can be a shortcut to help you decide where to look for further reading. It's a valuable resource. However, don't go looking to Brian as a brilliant guru to follow. He's what Ayn Rand would call a "second hander". He has almost no original content of his own. He just relays what others have said, and he relays it uncritically pretty much every time. Every single book he reviews, he basically says "this is a great book!", even books that contradict each other. So if you're looking for someone to help you sort the good from the bad, Brian is no help. To him, it's all good. You'll have to do the critical thinking for yourself. On those few occasions that Brian actually ventures an opinion, it's pretty dismaying...he seems to follow whatever is hip at the moment. So when it comes to nutrition, of course he's paleo. After reading N.N. Taleb's book "Antifragile", Brian advises people to "be antifragile!", as if that's something you can just decide to do on a whim. (And Brian didn't think about this particular point too deeply...something antifragile is vulnerable to degradation in a peaceful/tranquil environment low on stressors). All in all, this podcast is a valuable resource, as long as you retain your skepticism.
