This podcast consists of discussions between Lulie Tanett and David Deutsch. I love the dynamic between Lulie and David, and I love Lulie’s thought-provoking questions on topics like thinking, creativity, and decision-making.

I am really enjoying the content of this podcast. There are some amazing insights and I would love to hear more interviews. Thank you for your great work!
Lulie Tanett is smart and confident.
David Deutsch is out of this world brilliant
I don’t understand why David spends so much of his time with her. She asks mostly naive questions, with a pure sense of honesty and integrity, and he seems to work so very hard to go along
Thank you both for these discussions. I may never understand Deutsch without an interpreter, but these discussions have opened a door for me. Thank you both.
