About The
Tim Ferriss Show
The Tim Ferriss Show is often the #1 business podcast on all of Apple Podcasts, and it’s been ranked #1 out of 500,000+ podcasts on many occasions. It is the first business/interview podcast to pass 100,000,000 downloads, it has been selected as “Best of” Apple Podcasts for three years running, and readers of Fortune magazine‘s Term Sheet recently selected The Tim Ferriss Show as their top business podcast. It has now surpassed one billion downloads.
Past guests include Hugh Jackman, Dr. Jane Goodall, Jerry Seinfeld, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Madeleine Albright, LeBron James, Margaret Atwood, Elizabeth Gilbert, Mark Zuckerberg, Ray Dalio, Michael Lewis, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Jocko Willink, Bill Burr, Kevin Hart, Edward Norton, Tony Robbins, Maria Sharapova, Jamie Foxx, Maria Popova, Peter Thiel, Marc Andreessen, Dr. Peter Attia, Malcolm Gladwell, Vince Vaughn, Terry Crews, Rick Rubin, Reid Hoffman, Brené Brown, Dr. Gabor Maté, Naval Ravikant, Anne Lamott, Matthew McConaughey, Sarah Silverman, Dr. Andrew Huberman, and 800+ more.
Each episode, I deconstruct world-class performers from eclectic areas (investing, sports, business, art, etc.) to extract the tactics, tools, and routines you can use. This includes favorite books, morning routines, exercise habits, time-management tricks, and much more.
Aside from promo impact (often bigger than full-page NYT, WSJ,Esquire, or primetime CNN coverage), guests enjoy the show because it’s friendly, long-form, and they have final cut before audio is published. This leads to extremely open, raw interviews and—paradoxically—fewer edits. Here is a good overview fromThe Observer: “How Tim Ferriss Became The ‘Oprah of Audio.’“
Salon has included the podcast in their list of “suggestions to make you remember the world can be a good place.” It’s about positive tactics you can use, not “gotchas” or other B.S. The Internet has enough of that, and I wanted to do something to reverse the trend.

Every single time I talk to Tim, I enjoy it and he finds a way to get me to come up with 5 new quotes for people to put on posters. Listen to our conversation!https://t.co/gNid5DxDXU

Talking to@tferriss is always such a unique experience.

He listens differently to other people. He doesn't listen with the intent to reply; he listens with the intent to apply.
So the conversation is held to a higher standard. We're not just shooting the breeze, we're trying…https://t.co/qhZZ1M1ytm
