In this episode, we explore what it means to invest in a non-ergodic world—where time, not averages, determines outcomes. We unpack concepts like volatility drag, ensemble vs. time averages, and the implications for portfolio strategy, while also reflecting on how AI and zero-click search are reshaping business and investor behavior.

Topics covered include:

  • What is ergodicity and why it matters
  • How path dependency and emerging phenomena disrupt the long-term
  • How podcasting and blogging has changed
  • What is the future of Money for the Rest of Us
