How did I only recently find the @lexfridman podcast? It is rich with science, deep emotion, he speaks to the deepest thinkers of our time. Guests like Wolfram, Dorsey, Rogan, Musk, Penrose, Eich. My first episode was this one with Richard Dawkins. Enjoy! youtube.com/5f-JlzBuUUU

It's a great podcast, though I was really disappointed in his recent defense of Joe Rogan (who's not a deep thinker at all, IMHO, just a contrarian & agitator). You might also like Andrew Huberman, who's a good friend of Fridman. Tons of fascinating/actionable neurobiology stuff

I'm laughing about Joe Rogan but that's one of the reasons I really enjoy the podcast because he talks to everybody! As for Rogan he's such an efficient contrarian he contradicts himself LOL. I have found him to be amusing at times because of this, despite his thorny shell. 馃槉

Haha. And I try to see the best in people - I don't think Rogan's an unrepentant bigot or anything, but he tries to evade responsibility for his words via self-deprecation while the sheer size of his platform gives him some moral obligations that he's clearly not ready to accept

that's a very good assessment. He's sitting in the interviewers seat most of the time these days and his way of being is not at all reflective of the type of thing we're talking about with Lex fridman. Rogan could have easily ended up a character on the show n movies jackass馃ぃ
