You may think you know Malcolm Gladwell.
He is, after all, a New York Times bestselling author of “Outliers,” “The Tipping Point,” “Blink,” and other books. He’s the host of the wildly popular podcast “Revisionist History.” His work is heralded and his opinion asked by many folks on a wide array of issues. But what makes him so different that he has become one of the most successful journalists of our day?
In this episode, Malcolm tells a host of stories - from receiving endorsement from his mother to cut class, to attending a Mennonite barn-raising with his mathematician father, to spending three days a week in Freudian therapy as a young adult - all which help explain how he became the wildly curious and unpinnable person that he is, bent on getting to the bottom of things.

About No Small Endeavor
What does it mean to live a good life? What is true happiness? What are the habits, practices, and dispositions that facilitate human flourishing? Professor Lee C. Camp brings you conversations with those who are taking these questions seriously.
No Small Endeavor began in Nashville as “Tokens Show” in 2008, with quarterly live stage shows exploring theology, social ethics, and human flourishing. The Nashville Scene recognized the show as Nashville’s “Best Local Variety Show” which is a “grass-kicking shredfest” that is a “huge success,” with “genre-bending creativity.”
In 2020 the show began a long-form interview podcast, which led to weekly public radio broadcasts, distributed nationally on PRX.

I like what Malcolm said about happiness coming in discreet moments from doing things like updating one of his works or exercising versus spending and consumption. I think his statement also implies that the feeling comes and goes.

@davidconnelly552 5 месяцев назад

In other words, he doesn't know what Aquinas, Aristotle, and, for heaven's sake, Jefferson, meant by "happiness."

I'm a technical writer by trade, and Malcolm's comment that one must first explain the point of playing Monopoly before explaining the rules of the game is SO perfect.

@mariacosta4463 3 месяца назад

Yes!!!

@takkmoran9770 6 месяцев назад

This was a good interview and it's too bad more people haven't watched it. Gladwell is always interesting to listen to.

Listen to the munk debate with “Malc” and you will rethink your statement

@takkmoran9770 3 месяца назад

@@Joshb52 I did watch the debate, thanks for bringing it to my attention. It was very interesting, but I was already convinced by my own observations that the media is, to varying degrees, not completely trustworthy. I thought all those on the stage were interesting, including Gladwell. Which confirms my statement that he is interesting to listen to. That's not the same as saying I always agree with him.

@zaphbrox8239 2 месяца назад

@@Joshb52the munk debates are a different format where certain people excel even if they are full of hot air (Murray). Gladwell's forte is writing and interviews like this. To borrow an oft repeated cliche, you can't judge a fish for its ability to climb trees. I'll geant that Gladwell was presumptuous in believing he could do well in a contentious debate. He admitted it in so many words in a follow up video on his channel. Takes grace to admit that.

@Joshb52 2 месяца назад

@@zaphbrox8239 there is no grace to be found in his actions. He debated in bad faith using ad hominem attacks while providing no factual basis for his statements. Instead of coming out and acknowledging this he blamed his lack of debate training. Just because someone isn’t professionally trained for something doesn’t mean they get a pass for their bad behavior. Let’s hear your beliefs since you propose Douglas Murray to be full of hot air.

@mauiflyingdress2178 4 месяца назад

My goodness, I am so impressed with the interviewer. I met Malcom years ago and he is genuine guy. But the interviewer whoever he is (first time here) is better than Joe Rogan.

@mariacosta4463 3 месяца назад

💯 agreed 👍

@gurushishya5545 3 месяца назад

Skip the first 25 minutes, Malcolm’s been interviewed many times, most know about his upbringing by now.

@TheVafa95 5 месяцев назад

Malcolm is missing the point regarding the story of the Samaritan. The tale, found in the Bible containing messages from the Creator, resonates deeply with people's hearts. This sets it apart from other stories, such as Aesop's Fables, which convey similar messages but lack the same profound impact.

@breakerjr 4 месяца назад

I think that's exactly what he meant. More people connect with good Samaritan bc of the story.

Monopoly: Malcolm Gladwell Edition. Hasbro make it happen! Of course the tokens would be exclusive to this edition.

Suiting and running

So bottom line, how many of the audience who have guns or their family members have guns, turned in their firearms. Or bottom line how many of the audience after listening to Malcolm picked up a stranger in need of help and they helped them get out of their problem

@greatmcluhansghost7134 2 месяца назад

Bottom line is don’t cling to snap judgements. Look deeper

@anticringepolice 3 месяца назад

any race card dropped from malcolm here?

@zaphbrox8239 2 месяца назад

I disagree with Gladwell about it being easier to make people laugh. Its all contextual. Try making people in a funeral wake laugh, or someone who is strugglung with 3 jobs, or someone who us down on luck. Similarly try to make people in a comedy club cry. Both are impossible in their own way.

@evelynramos445 4 месяца назад

Take away their real value

@johnbatson8779 4 месяца назад

After his debate with Douglas Murray, Malcolm has shown himself to be nothing more than a race baiter

@homemaintenance1234 Месяц назад

Thank you. It is sad to see people at the event and comments here praising this man. His arrogance and entitlement lose off him, just another clever, lying, fool, huckstering the masses. Too many sheep.
