Daymon's house ,

Thanks dudes

This podcast is made exclusively for me. That’s how I see it. Every topic is what I want to hear about and every insight is as though I had asked them to address that exact question. So thanks, broskis. 🙏

JlinPC ,

Turning right wing?

I’ve been and continue to be a fan of the podcast. Lately, however, it feels more and more like a Trump pulpit, no longer offering balanced perspectives. They’re doing a great job discrediting Harris, yet can’t offer much or any criticism of Trump these days. For example, on the most recent pod discussing Trump’s appearance at the National Association of Black Journalists conference in Chicago, they only offered approval of Trump’s remarks challenging Harris’s ethnicity (applauding him for speaking his truth), but couldn’t offer any commentary on the dangers of his rhetoric or the constant anti-factual statements he makes. There's plenty of airtime dedicated to Sacks advocating the dangers of the Democratic Party, but little to no mention of the dangers posed by Trump (accepting free elections if he loses, the stoking of Jan 6th, division and hatred, etc., etc.). I enjoy hearing and learning from both sides, and hope they can again represent both sides more equally.

Great commentary — always a good listen

Keep stretching and including a broad range of topics. All of the hosts bring a lot of depth and insight to conversations about economics, government and the future. I’d like to hear more about the internal workings of companies, trends, VC concerns, and maybe talk a little about poker.
