[Krakanakis]

Shapiro's and Fridman's talking speeds are on opposite ends

[tooruoikawa]

If a computer processor and ram could have a conversation, I’d imagine this is what it would sound likeLOL

[MichaelCameron]

Ben saying he is significantly older than lex when he is actually younger than him is so funny haha

[Azdak]

Ben Shapiro trying to explain dial-up to Lex a legitmate computing expert 💀. Fair play to Lex for letting him speak and not jumping to correct him that they are the same age etc.

[nickg]

No one gonna talk about Shapiro's dial up modem imitation.

[adampizzi]

The micro machines guy and the tree from lord of the rings having a chat

[ASAPxMATT]

Ben is running @ 2x speed, Lex is being played on -1.0x

[jonathanknutsen]

Just looked it up. Lex is older than Ben.

[wosd]

As a person with ADHD, I have to watch Ben at 1x play speed instead of my usual 1.5 play.

[Chesstastic]

I find it amusing that Ben said that Lex is younger than him. Lex is a year older lol.

[guacamole]

Ben is incorrect in comparing AT&T with Facebook. A cellphone is not an automated broadcast medium, what I say on my phone stays with two parties involved in the conversation. Facebook is a digital public forum fueled by an algorithm (written by facebook engineers) that amplifies conversations and topics based on a click-for-profit model. Very different things. If you were shown misinformation that was later removed, the algorithm does not notify you that what you saw was indeed proven to be a lie. That is the problem with social media. Deleting is not correcting.

[MadScientistCinema]

Lex is a mind that inspires, and his interviews are by far some of the most thought provoking available. Cheers!

[ryanbuckner]

My YouTube keeps switching between 1.0x and 1.5x speed for some reason 😂

[lionheart-]

I think Lex right now has got to be one of the most well connected person on the world, his podacst has allowed him to meet a lot of influential and smart people

[Han-fmm]

Elon posting conspiracy theories was a strategy to highlight the positives of free speech!? Jesus Christ, how much of a reach can we get.

[NicholasDunbar]

The problem isn't when a platform curates content, the problem is when a single entity has too much influence.

[darylbenson]

I feel your underplaying the batshit craziness of Elon's tweet about Ryan Pelosi. It's one thing to be misinformed, it's quit another to be wilfully ignorant and spread that ignorance to the wilfully dense. To be fair both sides play this game but there is no leftist version of QAnon.

[kbmblizz]

If one believes Elon is a genius techno-king, one is also assuming there is no game-changing new or existing tech problems for him to tackle so playing with the bird is best use of his time. He is wading into an uncharted, unproven arena while FSD, robotaxi, 4680, C-truck, semi, roadster, solar+battery scaling, robot....many other problems are really late or not solved. Space-X has it's own list.

[Fredidiah]

It's crazy that Shapiro assumes he's older than Lex.
