  • #0.3 Jerry Seinfeld
    May 1 2024

    The third mini-episode will be on the oh-so-hilarious Jerry Seinfeld. Seinfeld is a comedian, writer, actor, producer, and is most famous for his hit sitcom "Seinfeld." The show had a 9-season, nearly 10-year run and blew the world away.


    Jerry is really serious about comedy and really serious about the craft. He loves this. He suffers for this. He's lost his mind to the game of comedy, and it is absolutely beautiful to watch. I'm a fan of his work ethic. I'm a fan of his passion. I'm a fan of his drive. These are just some of the things that make Jerry as great as he is.


    I hope you guys and girls enjoy this week's episode on the great Jerry Seinfeld.


    Greatness awaits. See you on the other side. And until then... Do Impossible Things.

  • #0.2 Albert Einstein
    Apr 24 2024

    The second mini-episode will be on the great Albert Einstein, the German-born theoretical physicist, amateur violinist, the brain behind the theory of general relativity, the equation E = MC^2, and just all around eccentric dude.


    When I first picked up his biography I didn't know what to expect, but what I found was a passionate, smart, sometimes incredibly emotional, rebellious mind. I found someone who wasn't afraid to break boundaries and go into places unknown, someone who loved truth and was willing to let go of old ideas if it meant finding the truth. Einstein was also insanely curious and childlike in his awe of the universe. For me, this really motivates me to try and keep that childlike view of the world and look at it every day with new eyes.


    I hope you guys and girls enjoy this week's episode on the great Albert Einstein.


    Ladies and Gentlemen, greatness awaits. See you on the other side. And until then... Do Impossible Things.

  • #0.1 Steve Jobs
    Apr 17 2024

    This first mini-episode will be about Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple, the founder of NeXT, and the chairman and majority shareholder of Pixar. Jobs is one of my heroes. He's a real inspiration to tech bros like me, who want to put a dent in the universe one day. He taught me to really care about the products I build, to spend a little more time than necessary making sure something comes out right, to not compromise, and to do my absolute best. Although Steve is one of the GOATs, he had moments of immaturity and general meanness. So now we can ask ourselves, was he a man or a monster? Should he be celebrated or demonized? Honestly? I don't know. All I know is that I'm happy that people like him exist; people who innovate, break rules, and bend reality. Ladies and Gentlemen, greatness awaits. See you on the other side. And until then... Do Impossible Things.
