  • Great content, way too many ads

    I love Adam Grant and his books are great. Such thoughtfully curated episodes are ripped to shreds with way too many ads ruining the cadence and pushing my focus away from the content. I can’t pay $50/year for every podcast to be ad free and still buy their books etc. Such a bummer.

    This podcast is so thought provoking, but not in an inaccessible way. Adam and his guests talk about human behaviour with humour, intelligence and compassion.

    Thank you for your work and your generosity. I’ve devoured each episode of ReThinking and “re listened” many times. Also a huge fan of Work Life. Just finished Think Again and all I want is to hear you pronounce “mayonnaise”!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How Adam Grant uses data and intuition to make life decisions | from WorkLife with Molly Graham
Q: What sparked the shift to Vibe after Think Again, and how did you approach that research?
The seeds were planted during a tour for Hidden Potential and the realization that building chemistry and meaningful connections could be a long-term, universally relevant topic; I gave myself time to explore, test, and develop a framework before committing to a new book.
How Adam Grant uses data and intuition to make life decisions | from WorkLife with Molly Graham
Q: Can you just tell me how you got to that topic, given that framework?
I described a space between intrinsic motivation and societal impact, and how I choose projects by testing ideas, thinking about their timelessness, and considering whether they would matter to the world.
The antidote to injustice with Bryan Stevenson
Q: What is the most important policy change listeners should push for?
Support for conviction integrity units, stronger prosecutor and judge accountability, and legislative efforts to ensure compensation and redress for the wrongly convicted, because these changes make the system more trustworthy and humane.
The antidote to injustice with Bryan Stevenson
Q: What gives you hope that the system can change?
A combination of historical momentum, the evidence of wrongful convictions being overturned, and a growing recognition that accountability and transparency lead to stronger, more reliable outcomes for everyone, not just the accused.
The antidote to injustice with Bryan Stevenson
Q: Talk to me about that.
We can enact meaningful reform through mechanisms like conviction integrity units, better oversight to address racial bias in juries and sentencing, and by shifting some burdens of proof and accountability to the entities responsible for wrongful convictions, all while maintaining a clear emphasis on mercy and fairness.
