Quick heads-up: I’ll be re-opening the doors to my Moonshot Thinking program soon.
In the keynotes I gave last year, one theme came up again and again: Most companies are stuck in place—drowning in meetings, juggling too many priorities, and mistaking motion for progress.
Lots of talking. Not enough doing.
Moonshot Thinking is how we change that. It’s a system for turning bold ideas into real outcomes—when certainty is low and the stakes are high.
Last time I opened the doors, the program sold out in under two weeks.
If you lead a team—and you’re ready to stop talking about moonshots and actually start landing them—keep an eye on your inbox.
For now, let’s get to the fun stuff.
Once a month, I share the best of what I’ve been reading, watching, and exploring. Enjoy!
Books
There Is No Antimemetics Division by qntm. One of the best and most original sci-fi novels I’ve ever read. The premise: Humanity is under attack by “antimemes”—ideas that attack memory, identity, and the fabric of reality itself. Characters forget what just happened, entire scenes seem to glitch, and you start questioning what you might have missed. It’s like Memento meets Men in Black. Creepy, clever, and completely unforgettable (ironically).
Films
Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair (2025). [Theaters] I saw this in 70mm—the full 4+ hour epic, stitched together as Tarantino originally intended before the studios split it up. Watching both volumes back-to-back in a packed theater made me feel like I was part of some cinematic marathon cult. No notes.
Back to the Future Part II & III (1989 & 1990). [Part II | Part III] After four hours of Kill Bill mayhem, slipping into back-to-back time travel adventures felt like easing into a warm bath—if the bath was built by Doc Brown and powered by plutonium. The original Back to the Future is still the best by far, but Parts II & III have their charm.
Wake Up Dead Man (2025). [Netflix] Another Knives Out murder mystery comedy with a big, eccentric cast. Yes, it follows the same formula as the previous two. Yes, I’ll keep watching every single one they make. Predictable on paper, genuinely entertaining on screen.
Jay Kelly (2025). [Netflix] As Sylvia Plath once wrote: “It’s a hell of a responsibility to be yourself. It’s much easier to be somebody else or nobody at all.” This film takes that idea and runs straight into the deep end. It’s about a famous actor (played by George Clooney) who can’t stop acting—even when the set is his own life. This won’t win any awards, but it’s perfect for a cozy night in.
Shows
I Love LA. [HBO Max] An over-the-top, hilarious new comedy about a tight‑knit friend group trying to navigate life, love, and ambition in Los Angeles—and failing spectacularly at it. If Girls and Entourage had a child and raised it on Erewhon smoothies and emotional avoidance, you’d get this.
An amazing Goodreads alternative
The StoryGraph. Remember when Goodreads felt exciting? Yeah, me neither. The StoryGraph is what happens when someone finally drags book tracking into the 21st century—clean design, mood + pace filters (craving something “fast-paced” and “hopeful”? it’s got you), AI-powered personalized recommendations, and zero ads.
