"Some people go to sleep and have God appear in their dreams. I just looked her up" - Sudev Namboodiri

Remarkable.

If you didn't pass 5th grade, you have no idea what that word means.

But, when something's remarkable - you know it when you see it. On this episode, we talk to the founders of a fake religion and then, one of TIME's People of the Year to uncover how to transform your working life by being remarkable. Plus:

- How do you become the most interesting woman in the world?

- What happens when you meet strangers on the internet?

- What are the inner-mechanics of being remarkable and how can you use them to your advantage? 

- How do you build the foundation for a deep, focused career?

- What happened to Pardis Sabeti in 2015 that really, really sucked?
