In Memory of Scott Adams
Episode 148
Saturday, 17 January, 2026
This episode is dedicated to Scott Adams. He had a huge impact on my thinking over the past several years. He taught his readers & listeners about psychology, persuasion, politics, technology, writing, "reframing your brain," etc.His podcasting style shaped my own solo episodes. The cadence he used, the candor, his willingness to think out loud, and focus on mental models, all left a mark on how I approach this show.I get into Scott’s terminal cancer diagnosis, the way he chose to talk about it publicly, showing us to live until his last breath. I walk through his core ideas and which of his books I most enjoyed.His unique approach to thinking clearly, persuasion, skill stacking, usefulness, and understanding human irrationality. It’s a look at why his work resonated with so many people and why it will continue long after he’s gone.I also touch on Gurwinder's favorite Scott Adams quotes, border policy, cancel culture, the Minneapolis ICE shooting incident, and much more.
