To see Colin and Samir interview one of the bests in the game - and outside of the typical YouTube circuit - is not only incredible but inspiring. Thanks C&S. Only way is up.

Years ago I used to work in corporate sales for a very old school company. I didn’t fit into the culture there and in my process of looking for something more fitting to my wants and needs, Tim’s podcast was a warm friend who kept me sane. Now, working full-time as a content creator, Colin and Samir keep me sane in this space too. Thanks for the quality guys, this episode rocked!

"Don't be the best, be the only" really struck a chord with me. The whole interview was excellent. Very happy Tim decided to more social than solo. Thank you all for yet another amazing show!

Huge fan of Tim Ferriss. This is amazing seeing you guys get him on as a guest. I've listened to his 17 questions podcast numerous times as it always helps open my mind to my blind spots.

This has got to be my favourite Tim Ferris interview. I love how you guys came at it from a different angle and asked him things he’d never discussed. I felt giddy with excitement when he turned the tables back on you guys asking how you approached your own strategy for question asking. Top notch interview guys! Keep it up.

"We need words to fill this part of the board because when we film interviews it looks too empty and we don't want our subscribers to think that we don't have important things to say that would fill a board." Love it! 🙌

Never heard of a creator vetting their potential ad read with such detailed and thorough process. Learned so much! Thanks guys.

Such a great episode. I read 4HWW years before I even considered starting my own business. But I can't help but recognise, whether it's through internalised learning or confirmarion bias, that many of the concepts taught in the book directly correlate to my decision making in what I do. Regardless, this podcast was a great reminder of how much I still have to learn. Thank you all 🙏

Thank you for this guys, It's so rare to have Tim on the other side of the table. You guys did a great job in the interview. This is something that I will rewatch multiple times.

I watched this over the span of 24 hrs.. I wanted each part to sink in. You guys continue to deliver impeccable public knowledge with the guests you talk to and the conversations you effortlessly create. I feel so happy and touched when the guests compliment you. Also, I literally laughed out loud when Samir asked Tim's special question towards the end 😂

Love the shoutout to Dr. Sue Johnson! Her interview with Tim changed my life ❤ and his results with that episode should remind male content creators not to sleep on female guests and fans!

I seriously cannot get enough of your guy's content. I usually listen to the longer interviews while driving and while I am hesitant at first if theres an interview with someone I haven't heard of, I always get such valuable information out of it and get so invested. I'm so glad I found you guys a little while back. Please never stop.

Colin and Samir meeting you guys over this weekend at your creators event was so amazing. Seeing your rise and being able to interview people like Tim Ferriss is so exciting and I’m so happy for you all. I was there last year when you hit 1 million of that some of that was such an electric special special day. I know you guys have not given up and kept pushing on and pushing on in. You’re such an inspiration to other creators like myself. It’s people like you that inspired me to walk away from traditional Hollywood to open up my own law, firm representing creators and helping them negotiate their brand deals. I don’t like the fact that creators are out there wing it on their own without any protection and this is the most meaningful work I have done in my entire career as an attorney. The creators economy will only keep growing, and I am so grateful that I started my channel a year ago. Samir a year ago you told me that if I try to become an attorney that represented Creator is that the niche would be so small. I’m OK with that but I also think that you guys hitting 1 million might indicate that maybe the creators space and creating content for creators is not as niche as it used to be. 🎉🎉

I didn't know you guys prior to this podcast with Tim. Thank you so much for getting us to know much more about Tim and the podcasting industry as a whole. I will be coming back after this. Your way of analyzing and asking questions is amazing and really brings the best out of guests.
