Ep.211: Alex (@aebridgeman) is joined by Eric Jorgenson (@EricJorgenson).

My guest on this episode is Eric Jorgenson. Eric became a close friend while my wife and I lived in Omaha. I love the energy and enthusiasm he brings to whatever he’s doing, whether it’s investing in tech startups, writing books like The Almanack of Naval Ravikant and The Anthology of Balaji, hosting his Smart Friends podcast, or telling you about the latest innovations in sandwich making. And as of last summer he is the CEO of Scribe Media, a book publisher where the author retains full creative control and financial upside from their creations, and in my opinion, is the perfect business for Eric to run.

In this episode, we talk about the publishing business, the power of books over other creative mediums, his new role as CEO of Scribe, and what he’s learned as an author himself.
