Malcolm Gladwell's podcast

quote:

---

“For every hour I spend writing, I spend three hours thinking about writing.” – Malcolm Gladwell

Malcolm Gladwell (@gladwell) is the author of five New York Times bestsellers — The Tipping Point, Blink, Outliers, What the Dog Saw, and David and Goliath. He has been named one of the 100 most influential people by TIME magazine and one of the Foreign Policy’s Top Global Thinkers.

He has explored how ideas spread in the Tipping Point, decision making in Blink, the roots of success in Outliers, and the advantages of disadvantages in his latest book David and Goliath. In his latest podcast project, Revisionist History, Gladwell examines the way the passage of time changes and enlightens our understanding of the world around us.

In this in-depth, in-person conversation, we cover a ton, including:

His research and writing process
How he learned to ask good (and “dumb”) questions
Favorite books
Routines, habits, and tools
How he pulls together seemingly unrelated stories into a cohesive theme (and eventually a book)
Philosophies related to public speaking
His obsession with running
Why he eats as little as possible in the mornings
