so is this officially named Random or are you guys still thinking for another?

Loving all the random shows, watching them through your Vimeo page as the video on Tim's website is too small :-) When can we get this as a old skool video podcast?

NOTE - Look at the top corner of Kevins book at 11.30

Whats up with the overlapping of the cupboard on the right from 11-30 to 11:35... weird

The overlapping cupboard at 11.30 was confusing. Whats hiding behind that overlay???

haha I know, strange, I have to ask Glenn

Even though I intend to look into most or all of those books, the best part by far was the discussion about jumping to the tree. Sadly, I have similar conversations with myself in my head.

Thanks for the suggestions!

@Tim so, why Seneca over Marcus Aurelius?

*note* this is totally a friendly question and i realize it almost could sound snooty. im not; im just curious (as to why seneca of all stoics AND if you are in any way a classics dork because that would be cool :)

Hi Pirata,

No problem. I find Marcus quite depressing and fragmented, as his notes weren't intended for publication. Seneca was a playwright and could teach via stories very effectively. He also wrote mostly in Latin vs. Greek, which Marcus did often, and this led to better translations into English.

Hope that helps!

Tim

Great video! Although I have to ask, what was going on from 11:54 to 11:55?

Try: The World Is Flat
The Next 100 Years

Shunyru Suzuki did not found Zen Buddhism. According to Wikipedia, Zen Buddhism was founded in the 7th century C.E. and Shunyru Suzuki was born in 1904. I like that book too though!

Great episode. Love the name "Random" by they way because that's what the show is all about.

Thanks guys. I think I'm ordering Getting Real and Envisioning Information. The rest: maybe later on in life.

Keep up the video's please (in combination with a text summary), I like them.

I wish this show was Weekly or at least Bi-Monthly.

I'd just like to say I bought Tim's book, The Four Hour Work Week. I'm hoping it will do some good for me. :fingers crossed:

I love this stuff. Great info, nice videos, easy to listen to and the name is perfect. It makes me want to watch to find out what Random stuff will come next!

Great selection, guys! I (re)discovered a few books to add to my shopping list, but "Getting Real" is definitely next in line!

BTW: did anyone else notice a "ghost" that's stealing laundry at 10:55? :)

This is great stuff! Definitely picking up Vagabonding and 8 Weeks to Optimal Health.

Great show, love the random concept from to bright young thinkers.

When are we going to get to see Random, episode 4?

A few new books for my Amazon Wishlist. Cheers Kevin and Tim, awesome :)

Hi,

Love the book recommendations, I have to examine Letters From Seneca abit like the Zen Master Dogan one. Good business shoutouts too. I remember Buffet saying he likes the Intelliegnt investor too. The intelligent Investor. Last Random great title to run with I think.

I added these to an amazon affiliate page, in case anyone wants them all in one place: bit.ly/82X0jA
