Tom Petty's "Full Moon Fever" & The Future of Work with Larry Port

Описание: Jared Correia welcomes a true legal tech legend for a record-breaking three-segment appearance.

First, Jared and Larry Port (founder of Rocket Matter) crack open a new entry in the "Perfect Album" series: Tom Petty's Full Moon Fever (1989). They debate the merits of the album's solo status, the genius of Jeff Lynne's production, and whether "Free Fallin'" is actually a good song or just California propaganda.

Then, in the main interview, Larry discusses life after his successful exit from Rocket Matter. He reveals his new venture, WaySpark, a career coaching platform designed to help young people navigate a volatile labor market shaped by AI, the "silver wave" of retirements, and the decline of white-collar hiring. Larry explains why interpersonal skills are the new currency and why he advocates for the "Family Dinner Test" when choosing a career path.

Finally, stick around for the Counter Program: "Hard Work." Jared tests Larry's career coaching expertise with a quiz on bizarre historical and futuristic jobs. Is a "Quantum Janitor" a real thing? What about a Victorian "Pure Finder" who collects dog feces? Tune in to find out!
