This book by Gideon Defoe 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: Chris Sacca. Every occurrence below links to the episode page and to the exact second it was said on YouTube.
“the Pirates in adventure with Darwin like those books are so good you laugh at them even as you read them to children”— Chris Sacca
The guest here is Chris Sacca: Billionaire venture capitalist, early backer of Twitter and Uber, founder of climate fund Lower Carbon Capital, and former Shark Tank investor. Chris Sacca on raising resilient kids, saying no, the analog-craving backlash to AI, and betting on clean energy and community.
