TOPIC: Incentive, Inspiration, and Motivation
This week, Dan and Merlin are inspired to talk about the incentive and the motivation to make something.
Inspiration is marketed as something you're missing, but it has a short expiration date, and if you're more scared than uninspired then it doesn't matter how many pieces of candy you're offered. And what do you do if selling bottled water cozies affects your intrinsic motivation to make them?
Well. It's complicated. As usual.
Hosted by Merlin Mann & Dan Benjamin.

From despotic rulers to lethal hummingbirds, it's time for us to address the cultural phenomenon of "The Hunger Games." Join us as we discuss the movie and original book, as well as (following carefully placed Spoiler Horns) the other two books in the trilogy. Why do all households in Panem get the Bravo network? Should "1984" be a Little Golden Book? And why does Lisa know which district of Panem is in charge of making lumber? This episode has the odds ever in its favor.
Hosted by Jason Snell with special guests Lisa Schmeiser & Serenity Caldwell.
