Thank you Lex
I appreciate Lex’s ability to hold space for diverse thinkers in a post-oppositional way. Lex’s work is a part of the solution to the polarization we observe in the USA.
Brilliant
It is very interesting
10000000 stars
Best podcast ever. I Would give it 10000000 stars if I could. Highly recommend.
Lex isn’t worried about cancel culture
It’s great that he interviews people who some shy away from for fear of being cancelled. Keep open minds, and free speech alive!
Best discussion on marital communications
Lex is a fantastic interviewer. From Huberman, Isaacson, and Netanyahu, he does his homework and facilitates a great conversation. But the chat with James Sexton was one of the most informative discussions on marital communications I have ever heard. James puts things in realistic terms. Just a great, enjoyable listen.
Lex’s interviews with women are my favorites.
Love these thoughtful conversations, love Lex’s thoughtful, analytical yet poetic perspective. Just need more women interviewees to add to the conversation!

Love it
One Star Reviewers
One star reviews are entirely political. Most of them explicitly so. Lex loves everybody, isn’t in it for the money, and continues to inspire with good faith conversations. That, and his unwillingness to engage in negativity and mudslinging, may upset the most vitriolic of online activists, but the rest of us are glad to support a guy of his character.
Always interesting
Great questions & great guests. Looking forward to seeing you talking to Robert Greene. My question to him would be: how did you come up with those laws and why were you sure that your ideas of those laws are actually applicable in real world!?! Explain the whole thought process and teach how one can mimic that thinking to come up with similar ideas!
Love the Recent Cybersecurity Podcasts
Lex, I’ve been a fan for a couple of years now, predating your plunge into full-time autonomy. (1) Thanks for being you. Your choice in guests is second only to your willingness to ask open-minded questions. (2) I love the Cybersecurity podcasts. Finding someone who was technically relevant to any of the US programs would be a dream (stuxnet, etc.) Thank you for the entertainment and enlightenment!
We need more open minds and hearts like Lex
Lex Friedman is able to connect well to his guests and explore different perspectives. Many people here are lamenting that he doesn’t ask hardline questions and he definitely could grow in that area but it’s not what he’s trying to do. He is trying to understand the person he is interviewing and hear out anyone of any perspective. We need more people who listen to others and ask questions seeking to lead in love and less “gotcha” style journalism. Lex keep up the good work my friend. Please keep seeking interviews with people of all perspectives it is encouraging and we need more people to do it.

Loved this podcast. What a duo to listen to. Brought tears to my eyes at the end. Bless you both ❤️
Why so many men, so few female interviews?
I am relatively new to your podcast and, in general, find the interviews extremely engaging, informative, and interesting. A big BUT though, and it felt hard to ignore when scrolling through interview choices, was how few women vs. men are interviewed. I don’t typically default to this thinking but truly hard to ignore in this case. Surely there are many fascinating female perspectives you could pursue?
Brilliant Minds
Conversations between intellectuals has been a constant in this podcast. I learn quite a bit of the host, his guests and their work on this platform. The poems sprinkled about from Lex have always been a rewarding piece of the episode for me. I Love your work and continue spreading knowledge to the world!
Lex Fridman
Is the GOAT
Always Compelling- Lex goes deep!
Engaging in-depth interviews with brilliant minds who are actively shaping our world from the inside out. Lex possesses a remarkable knack for establishing genuine connections with his guests, allowing their insights to shine without interruption.
Guest Suggestion
Should consider inviting Max Blumenthal to join you for an episode. He’s a very knowledgable journalist especially on the conflict/history of the Middle East, and would be a an excellent voice to have, especially in contrast to Kushner. Also seems like a very good human, so probably an interesting conversation would ensue.
The calming voice
I listen to Lex every night before bed. It feels like a moment of learning interesting things and to unwind. His calming voice is so peaceful and you can feel his amazing energy. He is full of love to give and receive, he can go deep inside his guest minds and brings lots of insight to them.
Comprehensive and Vital!
Having only recently found Lex’s show, I am going back and listening to prior episodes. I wanted to learn more about conflicts in the Middle East from relevant stakeholders. But this show is wide-reaching, international, unabridged. The interview of Randall Kennedy on race and language in American was educational on multiple levels. Lex is prepared and moves the conversation forward with humility and patience. This is a quality show. Listen and learn.
Love this show but today….
Love this podcast but today it was too much. Listening to Jared Kushner was imposible. He is not an expert he was the “senior advisor of the Middle East” mostly by nepotism. Today was thank you but not thank you. What disappointed was today.
Very good
Great podcast!
Lex Fridman
There’s very few stones left unturned in the Lex Fridman interview. I wouldn’t call them exhaustive, but I would say that they cover a pretty good bit of ground mostly well worth the time which isn’t cut short for the purpose of fitting in.
Super interesting
Lex is a superb interviewer, I never doze off, the conversations are fascinating and engaging from start to finish.
He keeps getting better and better
Lex is the real deal. To quote Polonius: to thy own self be true. He exemplifies this.
