AJ is a New York Times bestselling author, journalist, editor at Esquire Magazine, and maybe one of the most interesting people on the planet today.
His books include: “A Year of Living Biblically”' which documents his attempt to follow every single rule from the Bible as literally as possible, including stoning adulterers, not shaving his beard, and only wearing white; “The Know it All”, which is about reading the Encyclopedia from start to finish; as well as: “My Life as an Experiment”; “The Puzzler”, and “Drop Dead Healthy”.
In this conversation, we explore:
— What AJ learned from 2 months of radical honesty
— The value of boldness and the time AJ accused Oprah Winfrey of farting on set
— The puzzler mindset and the importance of replacing motivated reasoning with curiosity
— AJ’s thoughts on what it takes to write a good book.
And more.
