About the Show

Why People Listen

The Deep Dive started in 2017 as a series of conversations I wanted to have but couldn't find anywhere else. Long-form, unedited, unsponsored for the first 50 episodes — just honest dialogue.

Today it's one of the top business and self-improvement podcasts worldwide. The formula hasn't changed: find the most interesting people alive, ask the questions everyone is thinking but afraid to ask, and actually listen to the answers.
