The greatest work isn’t what goes viral, it’s what endures. Podcaster, writer, and venture capitalist James Altucher joins Ryan to talk about why podcasting might be doing more harm than good, what makes a medium “healthy” for creativity, why some stories survive history and others disappear, and how the algorithm subtly rewires creators’ minds. James Altucher is the podcast host of The James Altucher Show , an investor, venture capitalist, writer, and an expert in emerging technologies like crypto and AI. 📚 Grab signed copies of James’ book "Choose Yourself!": https://www.thepaintedporch.com/products/choose-yourself-signed-by-james-altucher?_pos=1&_sid=5ecb0ff12&_ss=r 📖 Preorder the final book in Ryan Holiday's Stoic Virtues Series: https://store.dailystoic.com/pages/wisdom-takes-work 🎙️Subscribe to The Daily Stoic Podcast: https://dailystoic.com/podcast/ ✉️ Want Stoic wisdom delivered to your inbox daily?
