Completely agree! Remember flying down to do a Lex Fridman podcast about why #bitcoin just as Elon was changing his tune about it. Never aired because it didnβt fit the narrative.

did you try saying the word "love" repeatedly?
that could work next time..
What narrative can they even push? Like who's the anti bitcoin party/beneficiaries
Am I being oblivious?
Only folks I can see who wouldn't want a pro bitcoin narrative are Liz Warren/banker types
Lex is so frustrating. Incredibly naive and not nearly as smart as he wants you to believe. But, occasionally, he does a great interview.

Wow! Unbelievable! Iβve been suspicious of Lex Fridman for many years. This confirms it.
Social influencers have a social influence hierarchical structure
Wow. His supporters just lost out on valuable information from one of the best.
So what you're both saying is that when you are given a platform, it's because it fits a particular narrative.
Lex the guy that never went to MIT that claims heβs a student and professor there. That Lex?
I used to watch many of his earlier episodes and learned and enjoyed a lot. But a few years ago this changed.
I still remember the episodes with Robert Breedlove and Michael Saylor which I find very good.
But this information from you now confirms, that my changed opinion is justified.
Thank you. ππ»
Lex puts me to sleep anyway
Lex Friedman is a showman only and not interested in advancing society. He gets no views from me
I stopped taking him serious when he started blocking people who discussed his height.
Jeff Booth - Bad
Benjamin Netanyahu - Good
In simple terms. Fuck these guys. Tick Tock next block.
what????
The best podcast episodes are the ones we will never see because they got censored.

Sad to hear there is a Jeff Booth podcast we'll never see.
Thank you both for the truth. I more or less assumed as much but clearly I was too generous, naive, and/or blind by bias.
This is a refreshing comment. This is the signal I'm here for.
Should I be surprised? No. But I sure as hell appreciate the intermittent wake up calls nostr provides me.
Bye bye Lex π

Lex is an asset, he blocked every single person on x that raised the question, "was he even at MIT?"
An asset for who though?
Wait, really?? Glad I never paid any attention to his persona. Why waste your guest's time if you never air?
Thatβs terribly sad to hear. Iβve been a big fan of his stuff.
How Lex got so big is a "mystery". He's the worst interviewer ever with the personality of a rake.
Thank Rogan for that gem
Such a shame the interview wasn't released, but something always felt off and after seeing this a few days ago now I'm not surprised
Have yall ever considered bringing your own recording devices, so that you can publish entire unedited videos?
Typical tribe narrative control
Maybe your interview was just dull. Did you at least consider that possibility?
Been wondering why Elon changed his tune for some time now. Most my theories end up around creating a narrative.
