If you married jazz with philosophy and filmed it, you would get today’s guest on  The School of Greatness.

I met Jason Silva in November on a cruise, Summit at Sea, and we instantly connected minds.

That’s probably because Jason’s mind is one of the most incredible ones on the planet and I was in awe.

I had seen his amazing YouTube videos, Shots of Awe, before and learned so much from how he explains deep philosophical ideas.

If you’ve never seen his videos, check them out right now. The craziest part is he doesn’t even script them!

Needless to say, I was very excited to interview him for the podcast and tap into his brain.

When we sat down, I asked him about the purpose of life, which led to some incredible tangents, and we dove into all kinds of questions.

I was especially fascinated by his thoughts on our relationship with technology and imagination, since his films use both of those.

I am so excited to introduce you to the philosophical artist Jason Silva in Episode 281.
