Best Holiday Gifts Under $100 That We Actually Use
Tim Ferriss Show episode with no sponsor read, a short holiday special in which Tim Ferriss and his guest swap gift ideas under one hundred dollars that they actually use. The picks run from a sub-ten-dollar Rubz foot ball - Ferriss rolls his feet before bed and, citing powerlifter Ed Coan's point that addressing the feet can release tension up the whole kinetic chain, credits it with helping him wind down - to a thirty-eight-dollar set of bonsai Nanoblocks, Lego-style kits a tenth the size that need tweezers and are oddly satisfying to build. On books, both independently love Anthony de Mello: Awareness, a 184-page set of polished lectures Ferriss has gifted to at least fifty people and keeps a shelf of in his guest room, and Stop Fixing Yourself, whose audiobook narration they praise, with the caveat that Awareness should come first and reads like a talk rather than a book. PARTIAL COVERAGE: this summary highlights the standout picks; the full gift list is not covered. These are the hosts' own preferences, not independently verified.
