Listener Reviews

Best podcast content. Always so interesting and informative. Plus Lex is a sweetheart. An all around good human. I’m always keeping an eye out for the next Lex Fridman Podcast.

Lex is a fantastic interviewer He speaks to so many different types of people in so many interesting fields I’ve learned so much Also the ads are in the beginning and there’s no dynamic shifts during the podcasts. Love it. Great content

Your interview with Javier Milei was one of the best things I’ve heard in a long time. Well done with your questioning and silences.

Everyone goes to work and talks to your coworkers about shows, movies and podcasts, some podcasts get political and people tend not to like it, Lex is by far my favorite podcast host, every episode i can talk to my family and friends about and recommend other listeners.

Fascinating!!!

Lex is one of the best interviewers

Lex, buddy…great job interviewing people like Wolfram. Never thought I’d find a place where the heavy hitters in STEM could be interviewed. Love innovators and those that push the envelope. Thanks.

There are lots of unfortunate people leaving some really negative reviews here. Maybe someone should post a link to something more their speed. I think they might be interested in something enthralling like "See Spot Run". After all, Spot does run fast!

Lex is an amazing person. His character and passions are all so deep and interesting. My favorite episodes are the ones with Paul Rosalie. Still can’t believe you spent 2 weeks in the Amazon Jungle with one of the greatest jungle-keepers ever! Just love what you’re doing and it is inspiring to so many. Highly recommend!

He knows how to not insult anyone and will consider how to use his words in a long and thoughtful manner

Thank you for the excellent interview with Bernie as Sanders. The interview with Sheldon Solomon was also great.

Otherwise great podcast!

Lex, I respect and appreciate your views that is partly why I enjoy listening to you also your are a great interviewer. The statement you made after your podcast was very well said. I think anyone who try’s to box you into being on the red or blue side truly doesn’t understand you. I’ve have learned so much about people and life from your long form interviews. I think it would be great if everyone presidential candidate was interviewed by you. You are truly a great interviewer. It’s refreshing to have someone with out a motive of tarring apart a person or promoting them do a interview. I really hope you get to interview more world leaders. I think you are the best person to provide us with real content and insight from a place of compassion and making the world a better place. And to the people who say your right wing they are stuck in a place where they can’t see past their own narrow views. The world would be a better place if we all challenged our own views and opinions about politics and life. And try to learn from those we disagree with. Thank you for being brave enough to do interviews that are challenging and will bring you controversy.

Curious, accommodating, and compassionate. Lex is easy to love. Just ask Joe Rogan, Michael Malice, Elon Musk, Eric Weinstein, Jordan Peterson, anyone. Seeing him and Malice together is a real treat.

Lex is a great guide through many diverse topics.

You should all be ashamed of yourselves, perched like birds on a wire, comfortably chirping out shallow, surface-level critiques. The reason you’re able to make these criticisms is because he’s out there actually trying to create something of value for others. I hope you’re doing the same. Lex uses a personable, almost gonzo-like interview style, where he navigates conversations with divisive figures in a way that’s thoughtful and open. While he could push back more, it’s not his role to impose judgments—it’s up to the listener to make up their own mind. His approach lets us explore the minds of others without forcing conclusions.

Don't listen to this podcast if you wish to remain inside the apparent comfort of your existing ideas and worldview. Bualadh bos 👏👏👏 for sharing these dangerous socialist leftist ideas

Like many good things, Lex is an acquired taste. His style and presentation are unlike anything I’ve heard before, and I can see why some people don’t love it. I like that he doesn’t impose his agenda or views on his guests, rather he just tees up an interesting question and lets them roll. Pretty cool. I just listened to the Vejas Liulevicius, which was fascinating! It’s so great to listen to someone who a) really knows his topic, and b) knows how to speak about it in a coherent manner.

Love how Lex brings on people with different specialities. I always wanted to improve my general knowledge about fields outside my expertise and finding this podcast has tremendously helped with that. Thank you Lex.

Thank you for bringing this brilliant and ambitious man on your show. He is such an important voice our time.

Hello! Thank you for having Trump on and not giving in to The mainstream media and looking into things yourself. We need to talk to each and not feel so threatened. I’m a republican and I can’t talk to people because they won’t sit down and have a reasonable conversation. I hope to try the news organization that you suggested. I’m looking for facts and I can make up my own mind. I don’t need the media to do it for me.

Lex is a master of highly accessible deep-dives delving into a range of complex topics. He effortlessly manages to blend and balance tech, philosophy, the future, AI/ML, and the human condition. And yes, occasionally politics. He is intelligent and well-spoken. He is knowledgeable and his curiosity and thirst for knowledge shine through each episode. With a placid, calming demeanor and universal respect for guests, many discussions turn introspective and “real”. Check out the show if you enjoy picking apart cutting-edge tech while pondering the meaning of life. As for the title of my review. I’m disheartened by the number of reviewers airing personal grievances against Trump, thinly disguised behind grossly unfounded criticism against Lex Fridman. Consider the amount of time spent each day that you allow Trump, Biden, Kamala, whoever, to seep into your thoughts, fears, hopes, worries, and actions. C’mon, you are better than that! Redirect the time into anything constructive. Start a new hobby. Help a neighbor. Decide to be the agent of change for good instead of waiting on someone else to do it. It definitely took me too long to figure it out and let go. And for goodness sake, stop ripping poor Lex a new one 😅🤣

I just love this podcast. Lex is respectful and I really get to know the guests due to the long interview style with the right questions asked.

After reading other reviews, I've noticed that some people who dislike this podcast seem to do so because they can't find the drama they're looking for. Personally, I appreciate the diverse perspectives in this podcast, even if some are more useful than others. I find it to be a peaceful and insightful listen for those who have patience and genuinely seek knowledge from the human experience. Thank you, Lex.
