I’ve been a reader all my life but lately my information appetite has expanded from books and longform journalism to include a healthy intake of news journalism and podcasts.  I digest all this content because I love learning and frankly, it makes me feel good to know things others don’t.  But also more recently I’d become frustrated by how much time I was wasting on mindless activities.

I created this website as a resource for people to keep their brains active and continue learning while they are stuck doing the necessary, but mindless activities.  To increase your productivity.  To give you an opportunity to multi-task and feel like you’re accomplishing something rather than wasting time.

Driving, working out or going for a long walk?  Listen to a podcast instead of music.

Commuting to work?  Why not read a book or longform piece on a subject that interests you.

When people get to the airport and don’t know what book to buy, I want them to jump over to the site and use it to guide them towards a purchase to keep you Never Bored.

When you show up to a dinner party I want you to be able to participate wherever the conversation goes because you’re Well Informed.

We’re starting the website with book reviews, print journalism and podcast recommendations.  I’ve separated the print media out into news articles that will lose relevance as time passes and the more timeless longform pieces.  Hopefully over time we’ll to expand to documentaries, movies, TV shows and more.

I’ll try to keep the content balanced, but it will be obvious where my interests are weighted.  Almost all of the books will be non-fiction. I’m from Chicago, love politics, interested in sports and in particular obsessed with golf.  Have deep interests in business profiles, especially in the world of finance, sales and technology.

Hope you Settle Inn and enjoy!
