Joshua and Ryan

This Sunday, March 21, 2021, at 6 PM Pacific Time, The Minimalists are going to host our first Clubhouse room: Follow Joshua Fields Millburn and Ryan Nicodemus to listen in on the discussion. Because we’re intrigued by the ephemeral nature of live, audio-only conversations, this app appears to be an ideal way to augment our podcast dialogues. We’re excited to participate in some meaningful discussions that will immediately disappear into the ether.

In this episode of The Minimalists Podcast, Joshua and Ryan talk about the problem of busyness and how we can better manage our time, and they answer the following questions: * How do we gain more discretionary time despite the onslaught of modern obligations and responsibilities?

Each episode of The Minimalists’ new video-essay series , Let’s Talk About Less, explores a specific problem created by consumerism.

In this episode of The Minimalists Podcast, Joshua and Ryan talk about alternative living options—communal living, throuples, combined families, long-term singlehood, nomadic living—with the CEO and cofounder of Nourish Balance Thrive, Christopher Kelly, and they answer the following questions: Is our current status quo of living arrangements in detrimental conflict with the natural order? How do we set appropriate boundaries with roommates and ensure those boundaries are not crossed to prevent theft, property damage, and tense co-living environments? What are the pros and cons of unusual living arrangements in cultures that wholly embrace them?
