#413: Tyler Cowen on Rationality, COVID-19, Talismans, and Life on the Margins

The Tim Ferriss Show

Tim Ferriss is a self-experimenter and bestselling author, best known for The 4-Hour Workweek, which has been translated into 40+ languages. Newsweek calls him "the world's best human guinea pig," and The New York Times calls him "a cross between Jack Welch and a Buddhist monk." In this show, he deconstructs world-class performers from eclectic areas (investing, chess, pro sports, etc.), digging deep to find the tools, tactics, and tricks that listeners can use.

Its signature blending process transforms high-fiber veggies, nuts, seeds, and fruits into silky, nutrient-dense smoothies (or protein shakes, savory soups, and dips) that are easy to digest and absorb.Now, the engineers at <a href="http://NutriBullet.com/Tim" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">NutriBullet</a> have created an incredibly convenient upgrade named the <a href="http://NutriBullet.com/Tim" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">NutriBullet Blender Combo</a>.
