#126 Hearts on Fire - David Perell on curiosity, being a citizen of the internet, taking himself seriously, childhood obsessions, building Write of Passage, ambition, and money

This episode was a delight. I've been following David's journey since 2017 and he was one of the fellow internet weirdos I saw on a similar path that didn't quite make sense. I've been inspired by how many people David has helped onboard as "citizens of the internet" through his course Write of Passage. I'm rooting for David and I think you'll want to as well by the end of this episode.

We filmed this in David's epic studio - I highly recommend watching this one on Youtube
