Hey Tim,

I thought the first episode was sick! But Ive tried to pre-order the season in iTunes but it is only available through the US iTunes store and won’t let me get the show because of having a Canadian iTunes account. Have any other ways to get a hold of the season?

This NEED to be available out side of US, and you look like you are having far too much fun!

This is going to be awesome. Can’t wait to see the show! I’m particularly curious about the Poker part.

As a reminder to other people who are not living in the US, Tim Ferriss’ show will be available for download on iTunes 🙂

Great concept for a guy like Tim Ferriss!:) Being one of those fellas without TV I naturally hope some of this will be put out online eventually? If so I`ll be sure to watch it and recommend it to everyone. Careful with those wild experiments now I hope? Wishing a great day to you all!

Love your stuff. Sadly your videos are not android compliant -get audio, no video. You might want to get your people to check into that as according to the Daily Mail in August of this year, Android holds 79 percent of the market as opposed to iPhone which has 13%.

Looks awesome! Like others have commented before me, I gave up TV years ago (in part thinks to The 4 Hour Workweek). Please make your show available online so your biggest supporters can watch. We buy your books as gifts for friends, we fallow you on the daily show and read everything you put out. Do not forget about us.

F*CK YEAH! This it’s gonna be the greatest tv show ever!

I stopped watching tv almost 2 years ago, but i will watch this, no doubt about it.

Will this be avaible on straming or something online, I’m from Argentina and we don’t have this channel here.

Anyway, congratulations Tim, and best of luck!

At first I thought this might be too similar to the other shows out there and get lost in the rubble. But there is definitely a unique element to it, but that’s just the trailer :).

Learning things that people have always wanted to learn, overcoming fear and having a shitload of fun.

Congrats Tim!

Congratulations! I can’t wait to see it.

You taught me how to build a muse business, which enabled me to write a best-selling book about my passion: design.

One of these days I’ll have to teach you how to design. Might not be fast-action enough for the show, though 😉

As a lifelong drummer and surfer, you have my attention. The trailer suggests that tube-riding and drumming (under the tutelage of percussion master Stewart Copeland) are to be “demystified”. Let’s see what ya got, Tim.

Hey Tim. Will this be available on Amazon for subscription every week? I would subscribe if that was the case. It seems like a good avenue to increase revenue and maximize your viewership.

Dude, congratulations on the television show. Not surprised it’s come to this for you.

If meta-learning is your biggest goal, mine for right now is to be the best automater. The more I automate, the more excited I get about whatever it is I’m working on. Meta-learning and automating seem to go hand-in-hand, no?

Tim Ferriss

Sweet!

The rally car racing crash-test dummy (hopefully not literally) is one of the things I’ve been hoping for.

Any chance you’ll be doing anything on a closed track with racing slicks (which are very challenging to master due to their very narrow performance window)?

How about some Shaolin-style spear balancing?

Dying to see the first episode, not that I want you to die though 🙂

Best of luck!

I recently re-read 4HWW AND 4HB at least the parts I wanted to tackle first. Meta-learning is something I truly desire to be able to do in a few specific areas to greatly improve my life.

Thank you for breaking it down for us. I can’t wait for the show to air.

Hi Tim, I purchased your book last year for Amazon Kindle after seeing it mentioned on another blog. For the last 4 months I’ve been my own boss. I spent 6 months building up my business in the background, and then resigned from my full time role. I won’t pretend that I am anywhere near having a 4 hour work week yet, and not entirely sure if I will due to the nature of the business I’ve gone into (web marketing/seo)… however, I am using some of the principles you outlined and your book was one of the influencing factors that gave me the inspiration to take the leap as am typically a very cautious person. Not so much now. All the best – thanks!

I’m genuinely excited about this and ’til this day I still haven’t that forgotten that first time when I read that excitement is a far better emotion to strive for than happiness and all its loose definitions. So… YAY!

It looks like this one has the graphics and looks that I was hoping for when the pilot of Trial By Fire was released.

Have fun 🙂 This will be amazing and you know it!

Hi Tim,

Loved the free preview, really tried to get it through iTunes but its nowhere to be found on the Canadian iTunes system. I hope this will be addressed because we prefer iTunes to manage all our digital content and it seems you feel that way too.

Please, ensure that I can give you all the loonies you deserve.

Best,

Terry
