Episode description
This week on Open Book, I’m taking your questions head-on—politics, money, media, mistakes I’ve made, and lessons I’ve learned—no spin, no filter. We’re talking Fox News, the dollar, entrepreneurship, stoicism, and why reading more and panicking less might be the ultimate edge. 📚Books mentioned in this episode: The Loudest Voice in the Room by Gabriel Sherman Island at the Center of the World by Russell Shorto Taking Manhattan by Russell Shorto These Truths by Jill Lepore History of the Peloponnesian War by Thucydides Anthony Scaramucci is the founder and managing partner of SkyBridge, a global alternative investment firm, and founder and chairman of SALT, a global thought leadership forum and venture studio.
