Outside the Lines With Rap Genius
New Podcast: Robert Greene (#61)
This episode of Outside the Lines, we talk to writer Robert Greene. Greene is best-known for his first book, The 48 Laws of Power. The best-seller took ideas from students of power games like Machiavelli and Sun Tzu, and distilled their teachings into simple principles anyone can follow.

Greene's latest book, just out in paperback, is Mastery. It focuses on how one can discover and excel at their "life's work" -- the skill that one is uniquely good at. We talk mastery, empathy, his feelings about that famous Richard Sherman interview, and what surprising things he learned about 50
