** THERE WILL STILL BE A REGULARLY SCHEDULED SHOW THIS WEEK, BESTIES!

this is *additional* content -- enjoy!

[sheryaradil]

Ditched social media last year despite 60% of my leads for my business coming from my platform of 100K+ followers. I walked into my 30’s this year with a stronger sense of self, positive and meaningful relationships, and can confidently say that there isn’t a thing about social media that I miss. My business has actually GROWN despite the temporary dip in revenue. Couldn’t be happier and more excited to be alive. I credit this author for waking me up and giving me the motivation to drop social media. Super glad you guys interviewed him!

Friedberg is truly in his element here - this is EXCELLENT

[abandy]

Friedberg is so smart and rational. I really like how All-In is featuring him more and letting him run with things he's passionate about and well researched on. I love how he thinks and I find it very informative.

[bryanmorrow]

Would have liked to see Chammath and Sacks here

[markc]

As a millennial I deleted Facebook in 2018 to focus on my relationships in real life and it greatly improved my life and career

[josiahclagett]

Jonathan might be my favorite thinker alive right now. I can't think of a single thing I disagree with. I love his work for the same reason I love All-In: clear-headed thinking on complex topics amidst chaos. Kudos.

[mstrylax]

Excellent interview. Raised my kids (34-24) just as this was developing. Thankfully in front of the wave. Lots to worry about for today’s parents.

[zacharydaniels]

Super interesting. Super important. I actually like the format because it allows the person being interviewed more time to speak. Less cluttered

[aidan]

Friedberg needs to read Hayek’s The Road to Serfdom if he wants to understand current Liberal thinking and where it went ‘wrong’.

[gandemeygeraud]

This format is INCREDIBLE. please continue. Thank you for creating the best content really on the internet

[marthajohnson]

This was wonderful! I felt like I was talking to my dad again. It's mostly common sense. He said the same things. In a nutshell: don't be afraid of something new, something scary, something difficult. Make mistakes. Learn to lose so you'll know how to win. (Empathy.) Go to work. Leave home at home. I loved this interview. If all your interviews are as enjoyable as this one your new format will be very successful. Thank you Mr. Haidt for a delightful discussion!

[ngbrother]

So great to have this extra content. Lots of value here for me. In particular, I expect I’ll spend many hours on Let Grow and reading the books that I haven’t already read.
We are part of a home school community co-op with a “no Smart phones” commitment. Having an official policy as an organization makes it easier for community members to self select.

[DayintheLifestories]

Best explanation of social media vs Netflix that i've ever heard. Learning things like that tend to change me forever, even if just in a small way.

[Jeremy-Ai]

Half of the All in are advisors to the government
The other half are apparently focused on advisors to the family.

Well… I … cant even.
I can’t even express how proud I am of you guys.

Set the example stay united.
The world needs good examples of male leadership across all things that have been lost to lies.

I truly appreciate what you are trying to achieve.
Even if all of you can’t be in the same room at the same time.

All in, Stay united.
Always.

Take care Besties 😘
Jeremy

[MickFutz]

Excellent conversation, thank you gentlemen for having him on your show.

[clayblythe]

Love that you are doing more content and switching it up

[markmui]

Really enjoyed this chat. I've watched a lot of Jon Haidt's videos, you guys have framed his work/ideas in a unique way. Pls do more of this format, I got a lot of value out of it

[Rojosi]

I watched a JH lecture about 6 yrs ago, profoundly influenced my parenting, a big reminder of how independence is so important in development, along with ‘storytelling’ rather than dictation have helped us raise resilient, connected and hopeful kids. 👏 Bravo and Thank you !

[doinitforthestreets]

Great work guys. I could listen to a new interview from All In everyday of the week!
