It's a nice episode, but not profound like the way the comments suggest.

The comments feel like they're from either shills or those currying favor.

I'd say it's in the eye of the beholder.

You may not think it's profound, but I'm sure you know several people in your life who would. I believe we all do.

What is inspiring - to me - about Naval's podcasts is they're an encapsulation of - and blueprint for - a person's quest for knowledge and self understanding.

He is not passing himself off as a guru, or a know-it-all. He's just reading, learning, synthesizing and practicing and that's a formula that anyone can follow.

There are better ways to "curry favor" with someone than to post a comment on the Internet. :)
