Someone sent me a link to a Lex podcast, it took me 2-3 months to finally listen to it because I didn’t know who he was and it was a couple of hours long. But over time I started listening more regularly and have grown to really appreciate his unemotional but intelligent style - and a few choice words along the way. I’m an ME by education/profession and am used to thinking things through, not having emotional reactions. Here I get that too but about subjects I don’t much about but know are important.

I think this guy may be genuine but boy is he out of his depth in some of these. It sort of works with Rogan who can always play the ‘I’m just a comedian card’. Feels less okay here when Fridman plays up the (seemingly not very strong) MIT connection as a crutch of credibility. At what point are you just a useful idiot for the powerful?

Grok 3 blamed JD Vance not Zelensky or even Trump for instigating and sabotaging their meeting in the Oval Office. Also I haven’t queried but suspect Grok 3 would declare Dave Smith is a full on dope.

Douglas Murray acts baffled over how/why the world is so disturbed/disgusted by Israel’s genocide & torture of Palestinians IN ORDER to land grab. HERE’S WHY: Evidence overwhelmingly proves it. It’s unfortunately a factual matter & history will continue to prove it.
