How do we navigate all the changes that come with radical growth – the fortunes, the fame, social challenges…all while staying true to ourselves?

Today’s guest is Deryck Whibley, lead singer and guitarist for the iconic punk rock band Sum 41. Over two decades, Sum 41 has sold over 15 million records, earned Grammy nominations, and won numerous awards, including a Juno for Group of the Year. Known for hits like "Fat Lip," "In Too Deep," and "Still Waiting," Deryck and his band have defined punk rock for a generation, and sold out arenas around the world.

Beyond the stage, Deryck’s journey has been marked by psychological and emotional battles that includes both addiction the road to recovery—chronicled in his new book, Walking Disaster: My Life Through Heaven and Hell.

This is a special conversation – we dive deep into how he uses his mind to create and how he is navigating the challenges of creating his next chapter. We also get an insider look at the untold stories behind Sum 41’s rise to stardom and what it takes to push boundaries - in a punk rock way.

What makes rational people adopt irrational beliefs? And, what can we do to bridge the growing divide in society?

Here to help us answer those questions is today’s guest, Dr. Dan Ariely. Dan is a renowned behavioral economist, Duke University professor, and author, known for his groundbreaking research on human decision-making, irrationality, and the psychology behind beliefs and behavior.

I’ve admired Dan’s work for a long time – his insights into how stress, cognition, and social factors influence our beliefs have been groundbreaking. He’s the author of multiple best-selling books, including Predictably Irrational and his latest work, Misbelief – where he tackles how seemingly rational people come to believe in, and fiercely defend, things that just aren’t true.

In today’s conversation, we dive deep into the psychology of belief and the importance of challenging our own assumptions. Dan shares the fascinating ways stress and cognitive biases can lead us down paths of misbelief, and how empathy and curiosity can help us bridge divides in this polarized world.

Whether you’re interested in the intricacies of human psychology, the challenges of navigating modern-day stress, or simply want to learn how to better understand those around you, this episode is packed with insights that will make you think deeply about the world we live in. It may just change how you think about your own beliefs and rationality.

Wondering how to create time for your life priorities when it’s not part of your employer’s culture? Then this is the AMA for you.

Back once again is my co-host O’Neil Cespedes, and in today’s conversation, we get into topics like:

• How to design your own life based on *your* priorities
• Bridging the gap between who we were in our younger years and who we’re becoming.
• The hidden dangers in giving – and asking for – advice.
• How to fully experience the range of your emotions, from joy to sadness, without muting them.
• The difference between “getting good” and “feeling good”
• And so much more…

And there’s a lot of fun stuff along the way – O’Neil uncovers a bit about my past, and I get a window on his obsession with anime.

Thank you once again for challenging us with great questions -- keep them coming in!

With Fire,
