Seems like you've read 'Amusing ourselves to death' by Neil Postman: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amusing_Ourselves_to_Death

"As always, there are caveats. I have a degree in philosophy, but haven't read any of the classic literature on this subject, so I'm almost certainly reinventing the wheel. And although I lean heavily on what I've gleaned from Sarah, David, and Venkat, I'm not sure any of them would endorse what I've written here. You might want to think of it as my own funky synthesis — and if it comes up short, that's entirely my fault."

Greatest and most self-aware disclaimer I've read in a long time.

If i consume 12+ episodes of something it means there is some value there. Otherwise I would have stopped earlier. I don't really understand all this negativity towards Ferriss. He's an honest guy who provides a lot of value to people. No one is forced to listen to him.

You think he's worthless and yet you listened to "a dozen or so of his podcasts". Mmmmkay.

I guess you meant logistic and not logical regression?
