Introducing "Less than One" — A New Podcast Journey
subtraction, human connection, meditative depth, minimalism, sober living, and the journeys of authentic builders crafting meaningful lives.
Friends —
After years of exploring the outer edges of technology, productivity, and entrepreneurship on the Kevin Rose Show, I'm excited to share something deeply personal with you.
Today marks the launch of "Less than One," a new podcast dedicated to subtraction, human connection, meditative depth, minimalism, sober living, and the journeys of authentic builders crafting meaningful lives.
I know these topics aren't for everyone—but for those who've been quietly curious about a more reflective side, this is for you.
Our inaugural episode features Jason Fried, co-founder of 37signals and co-author of Rework, who embodies what I call the "authentic builder."
Over 25 years, Jason has forged a path that runs completely counter to hustle culture, proving that working less, constraining your ambitions, and focusing on what truly matters isn't a limitation—it's a superpower.
We dive deep into his philosophy that "small is not just a stepping stone, small is a great destination itself," and explore how he's built sustainable success through trust, genuine appreciation, and the radical act of letting things happen rather than forcing them.
This isn't replacing the Kevin Rose Show—I'll continue exploring the latest in tech, AI, and health optimization there. Think of this as the contemplative counterpart, the space where we slow down and examine what it means to build not just successful products, but a slower meaningful life. It's for those moments when you're wondering if there's more to success than the next optimization, the next hack, or the next breakthrough.
You'll need to seek out "Less than One" intentionally—it's available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and its own RSS feed.
See you over there, and as always, thanks for join me.
I love this, and this is exactly the sort of content I feel you most excel out and is most needed right now. 🖤
Out of curiosity, what was the zen chair that was discussed near the end of the podcast?
