Hey Friends,

Lance Armstrong is one of the most divisive athletes in history. He won a record seven consecutive Tour de France titles after beating stage three testicular cancer (which had spread to his lymph nodes, lungs, brain, and abdomen), but he has also faced intense scrutiny and admitted to taking performance-enhancing drugs like EPO and cortisone.

So for this week’s podcast, I spent an afternoon with Lance — and we talked about EVERYTHING.

We discussed his childhood growing up in Plano, Texas, and the relationship he has with his parents. We talked about how he initially got interested in cycling and when he knew that he could beat the world’s best. He tells me behind-the-scenes details about his cancer diagnosis, treatment, and eventual return to professional cycling.

We dig deep into his fall from grace, including the federal investigation, the multi-million-dollar lawsuits, and his eventual confession to Oprah. And finally, Lance opens up about the financial impact this has had on his family, from losing over $100 million to a fortunate meeting that enabled him to become an early investor in Uber (he reportedly turned $100k into $20 million-plus).

This is the most interesting and thought-provoking podcast I’ve ever recorded. So check it out on Apple, Spotify, or the YouTube link below. Enjoy!
