Glad this is on Audible. Probably the best podcast. Me and a friend of mine both listen to this podcast on long runs.

Also the sponsorships are actually useful to listen to and relevant, which is unusual.

Can't believe only 2 reviews. Fantastic podcast.

Bir sorun oluştu. Lütfen birkaç dakika sonra tekrar deneyin.
This podcast distills nuggets of practical wisdom in all aspects of life, and helps you implement them. Very good.

Knowledge bombs

Bir sorun oluştu. Lütfen birkaç dakika sonra tekrar deneyin.
Massively late to the party as a Brit. Listened to some well known guests and some I was not as familiar with. Loved every one though, I’ve taken some incredible nuggets of knowledge (as the title suggests) from each episode.
Delivery is great and offers a refreshingly honest approach to podcasting.

So insightful

Bir sorun oluştu. Lütfen birkaç dakika sonra tekrar deneyin.
awesome for learning insights and getting new book recommendations to boot!

Chris Williamson is a great host as well.

An Amazing Podcast

Bir sorun oluştu. Lütfen birkaç dakika sonra tekrar deneyin.
Chris knows what he's talking about, and how to speak well. Often regurgitates true wisdom from experts on and off his podcast.

Chris knows his stuff
