Don't Be Good, Be Great

An insightful Against the Rules collection that ultimately answers the question: can even Michael Lewis be coached?

Journalist and bestselling author Michael Lewis' podcast Against the Rules is dedicated to examining what's happened to fairness. It feels like there's less of it every day, and one of the haves" of those who are better off includes access to coaching. But does having a coach help or hinder us?

Don't Be Good, Be Great is a highly personal anthology of Michael Lewis' podcast episodes on coaching. He visits his own high school baseball coach and subjects himself to publicly trying to overcome his greatest fear - with help from a coach, of course. Other chapters focus on lending practices, college admissions, professional sports, and psychological well-being. Who are the people trying to level the playing field, and are they making an impact? Don't Be Good, Be Great includes a new foreword and afterword written with Lewis' trademark insight and wry humor.

Anyone new to podcasts in general or Against the Rules specifically will become engrossed in Don't Be Good, Be Great, which, with over five hours of beautifully produced audio content, highlights Lewis' trademark insight and storytelling.
