1 Fell back down the Brian Regan rabbit hole. Hard to believe I Walked On The Moon is 20 years old now. One of the funniest sets I’ve ever seen. To be that funny AND appropriate for all ages is incredibly rare. Many folks say Regan’s their favorite comedian but he still feels underrated somehow. 2 …
1 Alright, posted the first short a few hours ago. Looks like we haven’t gotten much of a response yet. That’s fine. I expect it will be one of those things that feels like a slow grind, but then you look up several months later and realize you’ve made significant progress. 2 Bought an Apple …
1 Back home on a different road. Lots of beautiful little mountain towns along the way, more so on the Spanish side. Passed through a French town called Saint-Béat. It used to be renowned for marble and sculpture, lots of quarries nearby. But the glory days are long gone. There’s a sadness about the place …
1 Sometimes an obscure song pops into my head. Today it was I Loves You, Porgy. Nina Simone’s version. She loves Porgy but sounds like he can’t keep her. Maya Angelou said of the story… How many Black men had been crippled by American oppression and had lost the women they loved and who loved …
1 First episode of Ramit’s Netflix show, fascinating to see how other people manage their money. Always amazes me how normal it is for Americans to be $10,000’s in debt. This couple have a combined debt of $200K and still spend $1000 on a handbag. Oof. 2 An encounter with someone today that reminded me: …
1 Here comes the upswing, as usual after a batch of burnout. Plenty of energy and enthusiasm today despite poor sleep last night. I have to be careful not to ride this wave to death and fall into another black hole. Lower highs and higher lows. Steady as she goes. 2 At the cinema watching …
1 Stayed up late last night, exchanging emails with this guy in Los Angeles, producer for a TV show you’ve probably heard of. They’re doing an exposé on shady affiliate marketing courses, wanted my take. Not sure if I’ll end up on the show, but worth the effort just on the off chance. 2 Someone …
1 Up too early, looking down on the village before the mist takes it. Feels like time has paused for a bit, the new year sleeping in. I make coffee and listen to the song that’s been playing in my head for no apparent reason. Still the same, moving game to game, no one standing …
1 Everything seems weird if you step back and try see it with fresh eyes. Basketball, people running around bouncing a ball. Weird. Decorated fake trees in our homes this time of year. Weird. Me pushing pixels around a screen all day and somehow getting paid for it. Weird. 2 Sometimes I’ll read an old …
1 My business is a constant grind, today a prime example. I take solace in it, knowing that most of my competitors aren’t going to put in so much consistent effort. Words from Munger also comfort me… To get what you want, you have to deserve what you want. The world is not yet a …
