The Tomorrow People's Podcast: Recent Episodes
Sergey
Ever heard of a "sexy podcast"?
Think erotic literature but in spoken form.
That's the idea that our friend Nessy had a little over a year ago when the pandemic was just starting to take off.
It's an idea with a lot of potential demand, and it strikes at the heart of some of the difference between how male and female brains experience arousal.
That's just the beginning of the rabbit we explore in today's episode where we discuss human sexuality on biological, psychological, and cultural levels.
Joining us is Mikey (episode 5) as our cohost as we dive deep into human relationships and share some stories and dating experiences as the world opens back up and people start getting back out there and start getting intimate with one another again.

How much do you actually know about Crypto?
Behind all the hype around Bitcoin, Ethereum, NFTs, ICOs and the latest ways to get rich quickly using the blockchain, there is a powerful technology being developed that is poised to radically change our financial system.
And while coin prices have risen dramatically in the past few years, much work remains to be done to actually develop business models and organizations that can bring to life crypto's lofty promises of becoming a truly revolutionary technology.
As a managing partner at Dragonfly Capital, Haseeb Qureshi is pushing the frontier of the Wild West that is crypto. As an accomplished writer, poker player, software engineer and now investor he’s had an incredible career so far and we were lucky spend an hour chatting about his vision for what’s to come.
With his measured opinions and insightful analysis, hopefully this talk with Haseeb will help you parse through all the noise out there around Crypto.

What does it mean to be an influencer?
In this third and final part of our conversation with Tyler Blanchard we talk about the influencer culture and reflect on both the positive and negative aspects of it.
Fame and celebrities have always existed, but influencer culture throws a modern spin on both. Nowadays it’s easier than ever to grow a following and build a personal brand because of social media in our hyper-connected world. But in the desire to grow more quickly, move faster, push the limits further, look better, gain more attention and make more money, there are a lot of ways things can go wrong.
In a world where you can find an audience for anything, what do you want your influence to be?

Can anyone become a content creator?
In part two of our conversation with Tyler Blanchard we get into what kind of career paths allow you to pursue creative endeavors more easily.
Whether your strategy is to keep your cost of living down and maximize your free time, or to work a high-pay but flexible 9-5, one thing is for sure, being a content creator takes up a lot of time and energy. And with the decline in the value proposition of college and traditional career paths, the space is both full of exciting innovation and uncertainty that needs to be navigated bravely.

TikTok or Youtube?
In part of one of a three-part series with Tyler Blanchard we talk about some of the different ways to be successful as an online video creator in 2021.
We go into the major differences between the two biggest video-sharing platforms and some of the factors that affect whether or not your videos will get views and be successful. We touch on topics like censorship, virality, and monetization, and also get into Tyler's own non-linear path to growing his following on TikTok and how he plans to leverage that knowledge to become successful on Youtube.

How secure are you online?
With everything in the world becoming more connected through the internet, it's important to secure everything from your personal information to your personal safety.
In today's episode we brought on Chris Magistrado a cyber security expert and researcher to discuss some practical things you can do to maintain your privacy online.
How do you think like a hacker? What differentiates a white-hat hacker from a black-hat hacker? How does one even get started in that world? And what does the future of cyber threats look like?
All of those questions and more are answered in today's episode of the tomorrow people's podcast.

From arm-wrestling champion to business owner to lawyer to musician to motor-biker to personal trainer to speaking 7 languages and holding 3 university degrees – Estonian Susie Ann seems to do it all. She’s a Yes girl with a witty attitude.
She’s our first female guest and in this special episode, our fellow founding member, Jeff, finally makes his first appearance as host, and a solo act at that.
Jeff and Susie sit down together in Mexico, gulping shots of Pisco to celebrate crossing paths again after their first meeting in Susie’s homeland.
They chat about everything fitness and both even share some personal crazy arm-wrestling stories. They also deeply explore feminism and Susie's being a strong independent woman as it relates to relationships, intimidation, social pressures, and owning your own business. They also touch on travel, working in different time zones, and of course Estonia!
Did you know that Estonia has the most startups per capita? Or that it’s home to 5 unicorns despite only having a 1M population? Susie reveals this and more as Jeff and she reminisce together.
Buckle up for a different ride in this one!

What do Computer Science, Linguistics, Philosophy, and Mathematics have in common?
To most, these might seem completely unrelated but not to Scott Wiener.
He's managed to make a career out of his passion for blending those fields together by implementing abstract insights into profitable businesses.
Scott is an accomplished entrepreneur, software engineer, and visionary who has decades of experience working in the tech industry creating new ways for humans to interface with information.
And in this episode, he shares some insights on the larger trends he sees coming just over the horizon.

Did you know Portugal is becoming a major tech hub?
I didn't before this impromptu podcast with our guest Philip Lipetz.
He has a Ph.D. in Biophysics, is a best-selling author, and has founded a number of successful companies over the years. His most recent venture, Popdoc.io, is a new kind of productivity software that is geared toward streamlining creativity by connecting networks of information together more easily.
We decided to do this episode a little differently by hosting it openly on Clubhouse just to see what might happen, but we never expected to have such an interesting and in-depth discussion with someone as accomplished and insightful as Philip.

Teamwork makes the dream work.
How well your team works together ultimately determines the success or failure of companies and organizations, but what is it exactly that allows people to work well together?
In this episode with Jason P. we learn from his experience managing and growing teams through his career at high-impact technology companies, and how we can apply those concepts to things in our daily lives like raising children or managing interpersonal relationships.

How do you measure success?
And what characteristics help you become successful?
In this milestone 10th episode of the podcast, we explore the answers to these questions with a man who most would consider as having achieved tremendous success in not one, but several seemingly unrelated careers.
From starting as an immigrant from Soviet Ukraine to becoming a professional track-and-field athlete to successfully investing in commercial real estate, to managing professional soccer teams, we look at the story of Sergey's father and some of the most important life lessons he's learned along the way.
We also touch on some deeper psychological questions, like the value of self-reflection, its importance to personal growth, and how to learn to enjoy that process.

What are the keys to flourishing over the next few decades?
Both as individuals and as a collective?
What are some old virtues we want to rediscover and carry forward?
What mindsets do we need to leave behind us?
And what new behaviors will we have to develop to be successful as a species in the future?
In today's episode, we go deep down the rabbit hole with Fred Mathieu, a technical recruiter and founder of the Flourish Factory.
We touch on a wide range of topics from building community, non-profits, social change, race, entrepreneurship, and what the future is going to look like for our society which looks very different than it did just a few decades ago.

Investing or Gambling?
In this week's episode, we discuss the recent turmoil in the market around stocks like Gamestop and AMC, and how to think about finding opportunities in a volatile stock market.
We also do a deep dive into real estate investing. Often touted as a great way of making "passive" income, we explore just how much work and thought actually goes into making money from cash-flowing properties. Spoiler alert, it's more than most people probably think. However, it remains a great way of building wealth if you know what you're doing, you know what the rules of the game are, and are willing to put in the work.
AJ has a background in finance and economics, graduating from UC Berkeley in 2013 with a double major in both. He's been investing in the market since he was 16 and in real estate since 2014.
