GTD Oriented Podcasts

Hello to all,

I was wondering if anyone has run across any GTD-based podcasts (no, I am not using Netcasts!). I know that 43F has (or had?) a podcast that kind of touched on GTD, but I have not seen one of those in MANY months.

If anyone has come across a podcast that is GTD centric, please list it here. I am very interested in looking at and reviewing some of these podcasts.

Thanks,

Michael

I think Merlin went all Hollywood on us and stopped the 43F podcasts when he started big timing us with TMS (which is great, BTW!).

All kidding aside, I think part of the reason for this lack of GTD podcasts is that GTD is so simple. Not easy, but simple. Even the 43F podcasts weren't (aren't?) strictly GTD. I think my favorites of all time were: It's Just a Cup. Of those three, only one is primarily GTD related and that's only to say to stop f***ing around with your TS and Get some Things Done!

There are only so many ways you can say "Simplify your contexts" or "Be sure to do a weekly review" or "Whatever works best for you to create a trusted system..." or any of the other things that have become so clich? within GTD circles. The answers are simple but it's a matter of discipline to implement them. (Pot reporting for duty to call kettle black, sir!) I think the discussions about mindfulness that Merlin had begun a while back and deciding what it is that will inspire us and drive us are topics that will be much more fruitful in the end. I think that's one of the great things about board.43F is that we have places to talk about more than just GTD because if that's all it was, I think I would have stopped checking for new threads long ago.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
