I should've raised an altruistic billionaire and said that altruism means to give their money to me 😂
Lex Friedman is Joe Rogan’s personal Humanzee. That’s how he came up.
I have to disagree with Josh about SBF. As a woman and a fairly experienced investor, I did find him charming. I am usually good at spotting a liar and didn't get that at all. Am reading Number go up. It's all unbelievable. I still love Josh even thought I disagree!!! Good thoughts Michael on that topic. Michael Lewis's books are great!
Alex Kantrowitz looks like he is a 4 foot dwarf from Lord of the Rings
"He's like a animatronic president in Disneyland"😂
wow! such a great show 🤓(wasn't a hot dog & me not a bot)
This little guy is a human rat.
They found @ben Carlson’s long lost brother…
Totally enjoyed this as usual. Since I am so young, when will you be coming up with the 80⚡️20 T-shirt?
Batnick bought meta at the trough. This is how he paid for the mud room.
i understand why facebook is great indicator for a lot of industries, but calling zuck a great at pivoting and building is bizarre. Meta is trash and in decline. they missed the boat
Wow! Great guest/interview!
Best financial markets channel on YouTube!!!
Hey I got the killer app for this. It's called "Dateless Saturday Night in Old Times Square." I got more.
Damn Josh… you are speaking my words! Kudos for saying something!
i never comment but this guy is fantastic
Fkup alley stein
Micheal Lewis should be criticised. He basically wrote a book praising SBF and did not change his view.
NICE ONE. Thank you.
