Great podcast but please stop

I enjoy your podcast, guests, your views and bluntness. Very smart but so hard to listen when you always talk about yourself every podcast. Derails from the topic and interview. Other than that issue I’ll still continue to listen just FF when you love talking about yourself

Has principles when it suits him. Uses words that make no sense

I kinda liked Mr. Saad at first because he always pushes back against nameless college kids whenever they say antisemitic things or are racist against jewish people. However, when Elon Musk posted a very offensive and antisimetic conspiracy theory and Mr. Saad had a chance to take a truly principled stance against one of the most powerful men in the world he said nothing. Not only that, he constantly reposts him. Why is that? Because being online friends with Musk benefits him and his book? Saad uses very pudgy sociological language, loves words like “orgiastic” and “parasitic”. Gad, do you think a guy who has tried to destroy the institutions of the country to prolong himself in power and his way of thinking are parasites to said country? Could they end it from within? Seems you don’t which means you do not understand your own logic.
