huge listener enjoy the Alien discussions the best
At last, my soul soothes, tranquility is made known to me
I would like to thank the supreme beings, Wisdom, Infinite Intelligence and my Angel of Destiny for leading me to Lex’s podcast- in their perfect ways and perfect timing; I can still recall the moment I feel head over heels in love of his intelligence, his curiosity, his great knowledge of facts and figures, his tone of voice, his style, his presentation have benefited me in more ways than I can count. I have been transformed by him thru the YouTube channel. I binge on his YouTube podcast’s; his channel is set to auto play for seamless playback. I hope your sensing the power of the message I am trying to drive home here, the intent I’m trying in vain right now of successfully expressing the magnitude of gratitude I have for you Lex Friidman. For delivering the education I thought I would never find outside of my dreams, the discussions you have with your guests- every one of the 300 or so that I’ve been gifted with, have a weird spooky way of impressing my mere sticky mind as a personal message just for me…. And I do not say that in vain….. I am called to serve; it brings me great joy and great pain to live in my calling because each person matters and each matter is so unique; I am always worried of failing to meet their needs and most of the time their anecdote to their suffering was simple, meaningful, engaging conversation about the thing weighing on their mind. My maker crafted me to be the one they come to. Lord knows I tried so hard to be ready for them, scanning the index pages of a book as opposed to the table of contents helped much but then your podcasts came along and now I know im in the right classroom, that im not lost. I have sooooo much to catch up on…. Finding the right combo, the Easiest combo, lol, that will quickly get me to give in to it, an unshakable belief in my own competency that this is real. You and your guests reassure me every time that this is very real and the “flash” is IT that it’s normal and I’ll get used to it, the same way a baby learned to walk, and you give me that. You could easily become my god to me, sometimes I could swear our eyes have locked while watching you on YouTube, and sometimes your guests as well! You’ve mentioned several times that you build robots and I will get this feeling inside my ribs that that’s my hint, hint. Are you awake? Are you getting this? And it will be in such a strong feeling of direct communication that it embarrasses me and I’ll have to leave the room (I don’t turn off the tv tho). Thank you for this opportunity to share this praise and confession to your fans and my ISP, of the best incredible life altering mental relations I am unashamedly shouting out. Thank you. Thank your guests. My hope is for your podcasts are forevermore available and easily found. To you and St. Jude Children. Hugs hugs kiss kiss your podscasts feed me bliss. 😎😜🦋🕷🌄📷🧲🚿🛁🗝🎈🎁🔍💟♈️🅾️💯🚺🆗🆓1️⃣9️⃣7️⃣3️⃣🎶🕒🕚🏳️🏴‍☠️
Essential listening
On my (very) short list for weekly listening. Appreciate the pace, choice of guests and topics, perspectives, and look forward to every episode.
My favorite
I look forward to every episode, there is always so much to take in that I often listen to them several times. 💛
The Lex is the Best
Lex has the amazing ability to talk to anyone about anything, and he comes to these conversations like a very intelligent and searching child. He’s not afraid to ask impossible questions.
Episode #317: with John Vervaeke an Absolute Gem!
Definitely Worth listening to twice or thrice.. as the subject matter is so profoundly deep, complex and multifaceted that somewhere in the middle STOPS you (or your thoughts) from trying to understand/define those incredible topics based on preconceived notions or old learned concepts! John Vervaeke is hands down one of most evolved, extremely knowledgeable, and highly sophisticated philosophers of our times. I normally stay weary of writing comments about any of the handful of selected podcasts I listen to, but I absolutely made a MEAL out of this episode.. so much so that the Three & half hours/passage of time hardly seemed relevant (very much the opposite of the episode Lex did with that ex-CIA hack a few weeks ago that after the first hour listening to his pretentious rhetoric and brainwashed gatekeeping opinions was deeply disturbing & frankly nauseating! Well, I think I did a one stone two birds kind of commentary .. & expressed my two cents on the Good (episode#317) and the #Awful (episode #310) in one swoop! Thank you Lex for striving to be better, & refusing to conform to pre-drawn, dictated lines of the powers that be!!🙏🏼
Great discussions but…
Episode 302 Human Intelligence and Group Difference was disappointing, dude you should know better, you are giving bigoted racist idiots talking points justifying their twisted ideologies. Human beings are the same period. We are entitled to our friends but your buddies Elon Musk and Joe Rogan are just rich idiots, you are trying too hard to make yourself shine in their eyes. You have a platform dude use it wisely. Otherwise great in-depth conversations.
Not Political, just facts
But he’s great with great guests. Douglas Murray, JP and so many more! Lex let’s his guests speak. Thanks !!
Love the podcast
Like it how Lex interviews with not random to him, but random to listeners people with sometimes totally different angles about a specific subject. Also, how he sounds like he is trying to learn and not judging or defending his own approach.
Great podcast
It’s a pretty average podcast with great guests. Lex is just too monotonous and is too mix of an academic. I prefer podcasts by practitioners not researchers - but that’s my bias Great guests but dry conversations
Top
Top content!
Top Guests interlaced & occasional moron.
Lex s podcast has been my favourite for years now. Episodes like the Josha Bach one are more than just a podcast. they are an inside into some of the ongoings of the deepest thinkers the west has to offer. unfortunate is lex s infatuation with people like Joe rogan, Jordan Peterson etc. that just aren t on team love...very much the opposite. and no i m no woke idiot. just european... hence 4 stars.

You precisely hit the nails, however, Liberal/Progressive (LiPs) won’t understand or appreciate 🤣 Just like they never understand that criminals, terrorists will never follow any gun laws… because they are criminals & terrorists! 😂 and any law only limits law abiding citizens And when u r far left, u see everyone as far right! 😂 vice versa 😜
In the service of curiosity and humanity
I listen to many podcasts. Very few rate 5 stars for me. Lex is at the top of the list. He is curious and humble and engages extremely bright people from all walks in deep conversation. I learn something new in every episode. The only negative (which is a positive too) is the length. I don’t know how he finds the time to produce these- I barely find the time to devote to listening. Just do it.
Great Podcast! - All 1 star reviews are from leftist bootlickers
Lex is an awesome host and he has great guests. All of the negative reviews are from unhinged leftists that wouldn’t know what moderate views were even if it hit them in the face. The further left you go the more right everything else will seem. Bill Maher didn’t leave your party, you left his party. Lex isn’t becoming alt-right, you’re becoming communists. Practice self-reflection and stop pretending you hold the moral high ground.
Great Shows!
I admire Lex for his pursuit of truth and love of people and life! Great guests and awesome dialogue. I am inspired to continue to wonder, question, and to be filled with gratitude about our mysterious and beautiful universe! Thanks Lex!
A modern man’s search for meaning
The ability to stay open minded discussing various topics from different perspectives makes lex one of the greatest hosts off all time. This podcast has become a daily habit in the persuit of truth.
Jordan Peterson
I love this podcast, but Goddamn Lex, Peterson is the human embodiment of the term “word salad”.
Andrew Bustamante episode
Bustamante is literally spreading the Russian imperialistic narrative about the war in Ukraine. No, they will not win, no they have not been winning, no they will not spare Odessa if given the chance. Bustamante explicitly said himself Western intelligence was shocked by Ukraine’s stiff resistance; so, why should Bustamante be giving his “assessment”? Even his economic comments weren’t correct in the slightest bit. The counter comment on Lex’s engagement by autocracies winning the hearts and minds of peoples was disregarded as false, rebuffed instead by Bustamante citing autocracies need not worry about such things, which goes to show Bustamante hasn’t a grip on what it means to govern a nation.
Satisfying & Informative
I really enjoy this podcast. Each episode provides me moments of curiosity and insight. Thank you, Lex.
Varied and always thought provoking
I came across Lex by accident and heard him in the Tim Ferris podcast. Since then I have heard his podcasts regularly and enjoy the width of topics and guests he interacts with. Always thought provoking and with great depth and sensitivity. I highly recommend this podcast.
perfect
Lex is the perfect interviewer and these podcasts are an absolute delight. The magical worlds of AI, , comouter science, physics, astronomy, biology, philosophy etc are opened up to the general public in an utterly unprecedented and interconnected way without loosing depth. I have never learned so much in so little time. Lex and his guests are our guiding lights in the darkness. Thank you so much and keep up your brilliant work!
Coinbase show
There are so many fees that Coinbase charges, when you purchase crypto, 2) when you convert crypto another fee,3) when you sell crypto another few..... Coinbase making lots of money off your money On the upside, Brian Armstrong is really hot 😍
