The Michael Malice episodes are my favourite!
Thanks Lex, this is one of my favourites.
Continue to talk to everyone!
Thank you Lex for taking to everyone. Most extremist people think that talking to people who oppose their beliefs should be a continuous attack on the other person’s character and their beliefs/ideas, instead of having a conversation and try to understand the person. I wish more interviews would do that. Thank you for your hard work to bring this to us!🙏
Thank you 😊
Letting you know from episode #414 (intro), that you are very appreciated & much loved in return, thanks for the wonderful wisdom you share & keeping it real…💗 Glad to hear Steven Pressfield mention victor davis Hanson in #102, please consider doing an interview episode with VDH, thank you much!
Interesting choices
I have to say that it isn’t always easy to listen to this podcast. Especially when I am trying to listen to and understand people I think are dead wrong. Sometimes I find myself wanting to shout at them. It is in those moments that I am pleased to have found Lex… who doesn’t. I wish he would go a little more into depth and detail sometimes. Sure, none of us can be a professor at everything. I just think some things that are said are just not true and they are often portrayed as such.
Extremely informative. Thanks Lex!
Excellent as always! I learned a lot.
Soft spoken mega phone
Lex will let anyone talk in long form which is great he won’t do any push back so it’s important to do your own research and take everything you hear with caution
Debate Should Be Mandatory
Dear Lex - thank you for NOT listening to the “close ear minded people”. I was taught we have two ears and one mouth. Unfortunately this is not followed. It is great to hear the opposite view or someone competitive with your own narrative. After all, how does one improve, play against the competition not against those like you! Hence, debate or toastmasters should be mandatory in school - perhaps that’s something you can push for in some way. Keep up the controversy and diversity of speakers. Communication and listening is so gone in todays world where many minds are subsidized by the click confidence of the internet.
Tucker talks
In the first hour I began to worry that Lex would catch a lot of flak for “platforming” TC at this time (as he suggested in the unusually long prologue). But as TC went on and on, and on with those “zingers” and giggles, Lex’s supreme trust in his audience was fully vindicated. Always a superb podcast.
Inspiring
To any who might be wondering if you should listen to this podcast, I could not more strongly recommend you do. Lex, please keep doing what you’re doing. You give me hope that amongst all the noise, there are people out there who will gracefully hear both sides of the story and find common ground. Your efforts inspire me to become a more humble, intellectual, and all around stronger man. Additionally, you (and Jocko) have helped convince me to get on the mats and become a practitioner of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I’ve been training for over a year now and it has changed my life for the better, for which I can not give you enough thanks for how you promote martial arts. Sincerely, thank you.
Absolutely Incredible Conversations
The Bill Ackman podcast is the single best piece of audio discussion I have ever heard. The way you confronted him about some of the issues he has faced, really opened him up and provide incredible clarity and insight into his side of the story and his decision making process. Thank you for making it!
Tucker Interview
As always, Balanced, fair, classic interview. This is why he’s one of the few worth spending 2-3 hours on. Definitely not a sound bite seeker.
Love the variety of guests & civility
I love that Lex is willing to talk to anyone, that he lets them speak, and that he treats people honorably no matter who they are.
Great podcast
On your prelude to the tucker Carlson interview you stated that you will continue to talk to anyone. I would support this podcast for that alone. It’s Interesting and enlightening to hear how different people think. Keep up the good work and don’t listen to the people who get upset because they don’t like certain guests or how you interview.
One of the great podcasts
Always enjoy listening to Lex!
Great interview and podcast
Before his interview with Bill Ackman I did not know who Lex Fridman was. He is a refreshing host to listen to, he is engaging with the guests and allows them ample time to speak for themselves. I did not hear any interruptions of the guest, as you may hear in other podcasts. He understands that the guest is what the listeners are tuning in for and his direction of conversations and topics is excellently executed. It was great to hear from Bill with complete thoughts and ideas. Highly recommend Alex Fridmans podcast. Even if you are not a fan of Bill Ackman. Lex has connected with many influential people and has much content worth listening to.
Favorite podcast
Lex embodies a brilliant mind and a beautiful soul. The range of topics covered - technology, music, politics, entrepreneurship, science, sports etc - and the genuine and modest attitude of the host radiating curiosity, knowledge, appreciation, fairness, and outright love make each conversation a life-enriching experience on many levels. Thank you. Ps: And this is the only show where I not only listen to but even enjoy the full ad reads.
Keep it up :)
Great podcast, very informative and I like the topics are diverse, I'd only suggest you keep trying interview people the normal generic media don't :)
Great conversation
I'm a rancher in Kansas with a passion for learning about finance. This podcast is a breath of fresh air! I love the intellectual conversations with Bill Ackman, and I've learned a lot from his insights. The topics are relevant and engaging, even for someone like me who isn't a finance expert. One suggestion: I sometimes wish there was a bit more time spent on [specific topic]. Overall, this is a fantastic podcast, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in high finance.
Great Interviews
Lex is one of the best interviewers of all time. Last few episodes especially have been amazing. It’s nice to hear people from both sides for once in a uninterrupted fashion. Keep doing you lex, you and your guests are great.
Best podcast
This podcast is amazing. The variety and quality of guests is exceptionnal. I love the fact that it is a long format not scripted discussion. I hope to see you next time
Omar Suleiman
Thank you for allowing us to get to know who Suleiman really is: a reprehensible racist who is willing to lie in order to disguise his genocidal desires as compassion. Really, a fine job.
Inspiring
Succinct, concise and thought provoking ... AI will take a while to get there!
Victimhood and Refugees
When will they stop ? So much can be done for them y Under a government who wants them to advance for the sake of the next generation.
Lex, is as bright as his guests
I’m way too grateful to Lex for opening this window to human knowledge and our capabilities. I’m always surprised on how he sits down with the brightest minds of our generation and present them with arguments and discussions on EVERY TOPIC, making those exceptional minds, sometimes struggle to answer his questions. Lex is as bright as his guests. Through him, we have access to the most amazing, and sometimes even scandalous bright humans there are. I wish I had this back then when I was a student. Keep it going Lex, humanity will thank you for it..!
