I really like Led’s interview with Douglas Murray.


What number is that one?

He's putting them out faster than I can listen to them. His lates is #364 and I am about to start #358.

Maybe 274? After my Asperger’s score, I would think I’d know the number, but you can just type the names into youtube and you’ll find it.
I remember it’s from about 8 months ago, originally.

Edit: It’s #296, Vinny.

Will have to check that out.
Btw, Fridman also did a fine job of playing ‘Black Betty’ on his guitar while in the front seat of a self-driving car O0

I don’t have anything against Joe Rogan at all, but I never saw him much after he played that musclehead on Just Shoot Me. Or was it NewsRadio? Never followed him after that. But, he seems to be an open-minded guy who gives everyone a platform and all the time they want to talk — like Howard Stern did before podcasts existed.

Fridman is incredibly smart, asks intelligent questions, and has an impressive background. Now that I’m used to his accent, I like listening to him just as much as to his guests.

Lex F is also incredibly humble for all he has to offer the world.

@Smithers: I don’t know if he’ll be in the same city as you, but maybe you can have coffee with Led. I genuinely think he’d like you.

Vinny, thank you so much for introducing this podcast series. Speaking as someone who doesn’t sleep well, I really enjoy popping in an earbud and listening to the scientists.

You are welcome. Lex is truly a gem in so many ways.

Sorry to hear about your sleep issues.

Perhaps something here can be helpful?
