The Book of Elon with Eric Jorgenson
About this episode
From the show’s notesEric Jorgenson is an investor, author, and the CEO of Scribe Media — best known for his mission to distill the ideas of the world's most consequential thinkers into books anyone can read.
Obsessed with the idea that the best way to understand a great mind was to read everything they'd ever said, Jorgenson spent years compiling Naval Ravikant's writing, podcasts, and interviews into a single coherent volume. The result — The Almanack of Naval Ravikant — was released for free, spread virally, and has been read by millions of people around the world. He never charged a dollar for it.

That project established a model. Rather than waiting for great thinkers to write their own books, Jorgenson would do it for them — hunting down every interview, essay, and conversation, finding the signal in the noise, and shaping it into something permanent.
The Book of Elon followed. Drawing on decades of interviews, Jorgenson assembled the most complete portrait of Musk's thinking ever put in one place — how he reasons, how he recruits, how he sets goals that seem insane until they aren't.
His work sits at a rare intersection: rigorous enough for serious students of business, accessible enough to hand to anyone. In an era of content overload, Jorgenson's instinct runs the opposite direction — that the most valuable thing you can do is take a lifetime of wisdom and make it impossible to ignore.
