    #73: Elon to Lead DOGE, Bitcoin Surges & the Trump Alliance

    With Musk’s bio now updated to read, “The people voted for major government reform,” it’s clear he’s not just dabbling in policy.

Also on the docket: - will Bitcoin surge to $100K? - monetization for LLMs, and - the new wave of Silicon Valley internships in government We’re also on ↓ X: https://twitter.com/moreorlesspod Instagram: https://instagram.com/moreorless Spotify: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/moreorlesspod Connect with us here: 1) Brit Morin: https://x.com/brit 2) Dave Morin: https://x.com/davemorin 3) Jessica Lessin: https://x.com/Jessicalessin 4) Sam Lessin: https://x.com/lessin Mark Zuckerberg & T-Pain's New Song 'Get Low': https://open.spotify.com/track/3Wn1ZONJX2yfbzWo2aPuQN?si=5368065e3e994f54 00:00:00 Trailer 00:01:10 Introduction and Brit’s New Look 00:03:17 IV Drip, Lingo, suPAR 00:08:49 PSA: Cookies and Feedbacks 00:10:09 Another big week in AI 00:12:30 Department of Government Efficiency 00:21:53 The cryptos and the VCs 00:29:39 AI in B2B2C and Verticalized Markets 00:37:50 AI Investment Strategies and Market Trends 00:52:32 Pop Culture Corner: Zuck and T-Pain 01:00:15 Outro

    #72: Trump's Influencer Strategy Pays Off and the Future of App Building (with Guillermo Rauch!)

    Are incumbent media networks losing ground? Kamala stuck to broadcast media, while Trump bypassed traditional filters and reached audiences as an influencer, taking his message to Rogan and Fridman. Among concerns over echo chambers and AI-controlled narratives, there’s a flip side—more people now have a platform, giving everyone a voice. Guillermo Rauch of Vercel says “everyone needs to be empowered to create.” The more people who can build their own platforms and apps, the more we decentralize the conversation. Tune in as we break down the election aftermath and the future of content in a post-AI world.

    #70: Is Apple’s Vision Out of Focus?

    Apple’s Vision Pro has had its fair share of challenges. Initially aiming for 3 million units, the forecast adjusted down to 900,000, then 800,000, and ultimately? Just 450,000 sold. For a $3,500 device, that's a tough spot to be in. Going from developer kit to flagship in a hurry? Classic Apple. In this episode, the Morins and Lessins talk about: - Apple vs Meta on AR - AI & mental health, and - journalistic integrity in tech reporting We’re also on ↓ X: https://twitter.com/moreorlesspod Instagram: https://instagram.com/moreorless Spotify: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/moreorlesspod Connect with us here: 1) Brit Morin: https://x.com/brit 2) Dave Morin: https://x.com/davemorin 3) Jessica Lessin: https://x.com/Jessicalessin 4) Sam Lessin: https://x.com/lessin
