If you love business history and captivating stories from the past. You will love this week’s Listen from the Acquired podcast, which delves into the fascinating history of Nintendo—a company that began as a playing card manufacturer over 130 years ago. From the creation of iconic characters like Mario and Donkey Kong to the family's four generations shaping and dominating the gaming world, this narrative was thoroughly entertaining. This episode is undoubtedly one of our favorites from Acquired, although we must admit, we feel that way after every episode is finished. Happy listening!
“These are crazy good, I’m blown away. The fit is 10X better than anything on the market, and I love the pristine sound. Today I was jamming out to NPR in-between zoom calls and I loved it.”

The result is the perfect answer for long-term listeners who demand comfort and are not willing to settle for the status quo.
Our Listening Ritual
A Collection of our Tribe's Favorite Podcasts
Our team has an obsession with not only devouring podcasts and audiobooks, but then subsequently talking about them, so we've curated a collection of our favorites to share with you.
Perfect for the long holiday weekend is Episode # 283 “What if you saved your family from annihilation?” A man who experienced awful abuse as a child decided to cut ties with his father, which resulted in an incredibly scary story that could have ended very differently. What truly inspired me was this man’s ability to rise above his circumstances and end a cycle of abuse and forgive his mother, when he could have made very different choices. Inspiring, terrifying, and all engrossing, this episode is sure to make you feel all the feels. I came across This is Actually Happening one day when scrolling through popular Wondery podcasts - not sure what it was about, I picked an episode at random and was immediately invested in the story and outcome. This is Actually Happening tells true stories of events that dramatically altered the lives of ordinary people. While definitely NSFW or kid appropriate, and containing some seriously challenging subjects and stories, every week, This is Actually Happening takes me on a journey that makes me laugh, cry, and view people and circumstances in a new and more compassionate way.
Ever encountered someone with an uncanny sense of direction but a perpetual struggle distinguishing left from right? And what about muscle memory—did you know that the scientific term for it is spatial reasoning? Like many of the Knowledge Project episodes, #146 delivers insight from someone at the top of their game that will help us all create an unstoppable advantage. The podcast dives into the fascinating science behind spatial reasoning and why we should all be learning more about the importance of this attribute both mentally and physically. The esteemed guest, Barbara Tversky, a cognitive psychologist and Nobel Prize laureate renowned for her groundbreaking work on heuristics and biases, shares her expertise in this thought-provoking episode. Tversky delves into the profound ways in which our actions influence and shape our thoughts, challenging the notion that our emotions are fixed. Our team has been enjoying the Knowledge Project podcast, and every episode we've listened to so far has been a cool source of enlightenment and fresh insights. With each installment, we find ourselves engrossed, delving deep into the subject matter and uncovering new knowledge.
We cherish those moments when rather than clinging to our beliefs like life-support, we open ourselves up to the ego crushing possibility that we may in fact be wrong. As a lawyer, married to another lawyer, who is also an engineer, with a PhD holding father, and an MD brother, you could say, our family values higher education. After listening to Daniel Pink, I began questioning all my life decisions. Apparently, the “MFA is the new MBA”. Accounting, lawyering, finance - these skills can be automated and outsourced, and of course with the newest iteration of AI with ChatGPT, this is more obvious than ever. According to Daniel Pink, creative and symphonic thinking, storytelling, problem solving, and leadership - these “soft skills” can’t be automated and are needed more than ever as technology and outsourcing become more and more common. Now, I'm re-evaluating how I prioritize experiences and education for my children. Definitely worth a listen for some thought-provoking conversations around the value of left and right brain, and where we should be seeking our education.
