Dana on Lex Fridman's channel today

[Hostile1]

Fine if you don't like his style, but isn't he a phd MIT scientist? You don't make it to that level by being a dummy.

 

[Fact Checker]

Lex is solid, he’s honest about which side of arguments he’s on, provides a fair platform for different opinions, and overall has some great guests.


I’m gonna have to listen to this later.

Dudes got a PhD, if that's what you consider dumb then you must think a guy like me has downs.

He didn't say Lex was dumb - he said he is what dumb people think are smart. Having a PhD doesn't make you interesting or a good conversationalist.

Meh, regular people think he's smart. The guys actually a genius, and he is a good conversationalist imo. When you're that smart sometimes you might be a little awkward, it's a trade off. Lol

its almost like people can be intelligent in one dimension and dumb in several others.

How is he dumb in several other areas? I seldom ever heard him not make sense no matter what the topic.

 

[filthybliss]

True or not, you can't be shittting on others for "middle school level" shit when you don't capitalize your sentences or Is

yikes, you got me. atleast, i don't preach myself as a intellectual pundit

 

[Khaosan]

Honk honk.

Does Lex do that a lot in the podcasts you listen to?

he thinks the russia and ukraine conflict can be resolved by getting putin and zelensky on the pod, commonly refers to "criticism" as hate, and the dude didn't even know what an IUD is....
it seems like you admire the guy anyways, so keep doing that. I guess we can agree to disagree, eh?

regular people are also dumb and boring

Hol up, I thought Dana said he wasn't doing podcasts anymore.

Are you saying he lied to Howie?

I can handle Dana. But I fucking hate Lex. Will not be watching.

 

[jeff7b9]

Bet you there's a shit ton of ass licking in that vid.

 

[ferrisjso]

I thought he quit podcasts.

 

[BigSexy444]

What an interview. Dana comes off as a likeable, a great businessman and a total badass.

 

[Jesus X]

Dana could help lex be less uptight and more of a degenerate.

 

[Psychedelic]

every lex fridman interview ever is the most pseudointellectual and surface level slop imaginable. he's the definition of what dumb people think of as smart. him and dana chumming it up can't be anymore insufferable than his elon stuff, i imagine.

His interviews with Vitalik Buterin were top tier.
