Listener Reviews

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

Always enjoy listening to Lex!

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.

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.

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 :)

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.

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.

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

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.

Succinct, concise and thought provoking ... AI will take a while to get there!

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.

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..!

I listened to every second of his story and was captivated and moved. Lex let him talk and that was a perfect strategy. Awesome episode !

Ben absolutely COOKED destiny 💀would love to see a part 2

I’ve been listening intermittently for about 4 months, but this episode prompted me to give your show a 5 star review. Wonderful! I couldn’t wait to get back to the story, and the length was perfect for his story.

Lex has such great curiosity about so many topics. The show is always interesting and great. Thanks Lex

Great episode- interesting.

Five Stars

The man and his team do the research. He asks relevant, important questions, educated, insider point of view questions. And interviewees actually answer candidly. For the most part, interviewees don’t seem to be pushing agendas or products. They are given the time and space to answer and explain, realizing they are talking to an honest, authentic no-bull journalist. This is one of the best informative broadcasts /podcasts out there.

Erudite, discerning conversation to reveal the variety that underpins the ultimate cause. Favourite listen, no doubt!
