#420: Books I've Loved — Matt Mullenweg | Brought to you by <a href="http://audible.com/tim" target="_blank">Audible</a>. Welcome to another episode of&nbsp;<a href="http://tim.blog/podcast?utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;utm_campaign=podcast-description" target="_blank">The Tim Ferriss Show</a>, where it is my job to sit down with world-class performers of all different types—from startup founders and investors to chess champions to Olympic athletes. This episode, however, is an experiment and part of a shorter series I’m doing called “Books I’ve Loved.”&nbsp;I’ve invited some amazing past guests, close friends, and new faces to share their favorite books—the books that have influenced them, changed them, and transformed them for the better.&nbsp;I hope you pick up one or two new mentors—in the form of books—from this new series and apply the lessons in your own life.Matt Mullenweg&nbsp;(<a href="http://twitter.com/photomatt" target="_blank">@photomatt</a>) is the founding developer of WordPress, the open-source software used by over 35% of the web.
