In this episode, Sean Murray talks with Eric Jorgenson about the latter's new book, "The Almanack of Naval Ravikant." This is a book Eric collaborated on with Naval and they are giving the book away free online. It is essentially a collection of the wisdom of Naval, which was pulled from a variety of sources like Twitter, blogs, podcasts, YouTube, and other ephemeral media, which Eric assembled and organized into a book that is easy to read and search.
