Tim Ferriss (“The Four Hour Work Week†“The Four Hour Body†and “The Four Hour Chefâ€) Joins David for an action-packed show, as Tim shares his journey from being unknown to an internationally acclaimed best selling author of three books.


Forbes Magazine describes Tim as “one of the names you most need to knowâ€.


Tim is a master learner, who is passionate about helping others become master learners and teachers so that together they can create greater change in the world.


His latest book, The 4 hour Chef†is a masterpiece for anyone who is ready to create a Kickass Life and is passionate about learning anything by utilizing the “Meta Learning Approach.â€


Within the pages of the book you will discover how your skills in the kitchen can translate to learning anything, and how using the book’s blueprint of learning, can assist you in tackling any passion, any fear or any goal with greater fun and success.


About the Four Hour Chef:


In The 4-Hour Chef, #1 New York Times best-selling author (and lifelong non-cook) Tim Ferriss takes you from Manhattan to Okinawa, from Silicon Valley to Calcutta, unearthing the secrets of the world’s fastest learners and greatest chefs. Ferriss uses cooking to teach “meta-learning,†a step-by-step process that can be used to master anything, whether searing steak, speaking Spanish, or shooting 3-pointers in basketball.


In Tim’s Own Words:



The real “recipe†of The 4-Hour Chef:


Whether you want to learn how to speak a new language in three months, how to shoot a three-pointer in one weekend, or how to memorize a deck of cards in less than a minute, the true “recipe†of this book is exactly that: a process for acquiring any skill. The vehicle I chose is cooking. Yes, I’ll teach you all the most flexible techniques of culinary school using 14 strategically chosen meals, all with four or fewer ingredients, and all taking 5-20 minutes to prepare (literally, The 4-Hour Chef). But I wrote this book to make you a master student of all things.
