Ben Wilson is the host of the renowned podcast How To Take Over The World where he studies history’s greatest leaders and heroes so you can learn lessons from their lives and become a great leader yourself.
We discuss why great leaders study great leaders and why you should too, the role copying has in creating, the two qualities of every great leader, how to cultivate a vision, how Jesus took over the world without leaving a couple hundred mile radius, the most understudied historical figures in the world, who alive today will be studied throughout history, and more.

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
