Lex doesn’t give in to the machine.

ily lex u should have on fuentes

Lex has a remarkably open and curious mind. He asks thoughtful questions and let’s his guest express their point of view. I have learned a lot from this podcast over the years. We need more discussion like this in our polarized world.

Hey Lex and team, love the podcast! I love the diverse topics and it's always interesting to learn something new from your guests. I especially love Physics related episodes as well as tech/science. I wanted to ask: Do you plan on bringing video podcasts to apple in the near future?

Lex accompanies me to and from work for nearly a year now. I absolutely love how he conducts interviews and the insightful questions he asks all walks of life. Just fantastic.

I especially like the ones with industry and historical experts, like the Helion CEO or Viking historian. The political ones are hit or miss. Please stop asking some AI chatbot about something when you have an expert in that field sitting across from you. I care about your guest’s opinion, not AI. Kinda cringe.

That was easily one of the most powerful podcasts I’ve ever listened to. It was completely riveting—Matt Cox has a way of telling his story that makes you feel like you’re right there with him, living every moment. As a man, it really hits home. A lot of us go through life wanting to make our fathers proud, and you could feel how much that meant to him in the way he spoke about his dad. It added a whole deeper layer to everything. And hearing about the relationships built while being institutionalized—it makes sense. When you live alongside people every day in that kind of environment, those bonds become something different, something stronger. I’ve been listening to his podcast for a couple years now, but this was the first time I heard his full story from start to finish. I was completely locked in the entire time. Incredible story. Truly unforgettable. Jay!!

…a bit too much insider baseball when Lex knows the subject well (e.g. OpenClaw episode). We were all dropped in “media res” to something fairly abstract and hard to understand.

This is jimmy 🤠 -l- /\ He likes to travel, so spread him to other podcasts

Listening since 2020, Lex is a great interviewer, a great human, and a real polymath.

This is a great podcast that continues to get better with time. When a new episode drops, I get excited, and I proceed to unfasten my thick leather belt from my neck, and decide to stick around for at least another week.

Thanks for putting out awesome stuff, can’t wait for your interview with Khabib, thanks for not letting whiny people dictate your content

I love listening to Lex’s podcast, he is a brilliant host; he comes across very sincere and knowledgeable, he asks great questions which help you understand the guest and the subject matter. Thank you Lex for such a well thought out podcast!

I’ve really been enjoying the interviews with history experts and archeological discoveries. Thanks for putting the time and energy into the long-form interviews.

Very interesting and intriguing. Covers many fascinating topics and does a good job of deeply analyzing all of it.

Fascinating discussions on the architecture of intelligent minds. I am still trying to absorb the idea that the physical is an interface to a larger space that could be hosting all the intelligence and how connectivity of simpler agents could lead to intelligent behaviors. Levin also pointed out that the Cellular automata model is open loop, hence not adequate to explain emergence of intelligence. Perhaps an interview with Stephen Wolfram on how the universe being an computing process, how irreducibility could apply and how his view rooted in physics could compare and contrast Levin’s view from a higher level of cognitive sciences and biology ?

Absolutely fascinating interview with David Kirtley about the incredible possibilities with nuclear fusion as a safe, clean, abundant, low cost power source. This power will eliminate world poverty and propel mankind forward. Appreciate the smart questions and requests to clarify..really helped a non-physics person like me to understand. Hope I’m around in 30 years to see the full potential and resulting exponential growth in human expansion

How could you not love lex at this point.

Cada episodio es enorme en contenido, conocimiento y trabajo. Amé el episodio de Pavel Durov

I really enjoy your show and appreciate the high quality interviews. You clearly put significant effort into researching and preparing for each episode. Unfortunately I think you missed the mark a bit with episode #477 on China with guest Keyu Jin. While the episode was informative, in total it came off as nothing more than Chinese political propaganda. You never delved into why America considers China as an enemy from a political perspective. In my opinion it is disingenuous to only consider China from an economic perspective without considering its political aspirations and actions. The two are absolutely intertwined. China holds the same company as Russia and Iran from an American point of view…they are the modern day axis of evil that actively touts international laws and norms, undermines American interests around the world and are nothing more than murderers and thugs posing as state actors.

This woman worships Alfred Kinzie who abused children and wanted to normalise adult child relationships. Terrible terrible choice of interviewee

Thanks for your work and outlook on life. Peace brother

Love the variety of topics covered and love the long podcasts so many podcasts are far too short

Some interviews are far too long. Would be better at 2 hours maximum.
