This book by Thich Nhat Hanh came up once on Tim Ferriss in the episodes we index. That mention was a genuine on-air recommendation, not just a passing reference. The people who brought it up: Blake Mycoskie. Every occurrence below links to the episode page and to the exact second it was said on YouTube.
