How are the Besties adapting to the creator economy?
That was perfect.
You rocked it, bro. That was great. Hey, everybody.
Welcome to Austin. Welcome, everybody. That's my friend Dave Friedberg. Thanks for having me. How are you doing, brother? Welcome to Texas. It's a little light. We're missing a couple friends here tonight. We have some new friends. We have some awesome friends. And we wanted to do something around this sort of new media creator economy. It's something we're experiencing with the podcast.
And that's obviously having a big impact on society, right?
A lot of people say this was the podcast election. the big media companies from journalism, Fox News, CNN, to the big platforms, Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, to Disney and others are kind of rearranging their pawns on the chessboard based on, and responding to what's going on.
And so we thought it'd be really interesting to hear about some of the people who we think are probably the smartest in the creator economy in terms of building a business and how you maneuver and how you play and how you grow as part of that conversation today.
You didn't, you had a Twitter account when we started All In, but you literally had never tweeted. And now you've become the Sultan of Science. You're very famous. Any Sultan of Science fans out there? Awesome, awesome. Did anybody see him win Celebrity Jeopardy? I mean, we're so proud of our bestie. You have no idea how anxious, ashamed, hand-wringing he was for six weeks. He knew he won.
He wouldn't tell us the outcome, because he knew that Chamath would gamble it, and there would be a whole controversy. He'd figure out a way to make a bet on it. Actually, someone doesn't know how to keep their mouth shut, but. Yes, yeah, that's right. I keep talking to Chamath about that. And then he wins, and he wins, but he's so upset at himself because he didn't win enough.
I'm going to thank our sponsors. I mean, this is what happens on an average show. I say about 17 inappropriate things. He goes, strike, cut, strike, cut. And then we have to have a grand negotiation after the episode where we horse trade the inappropriate things Chamath and I say and what he's going to allow us to happen. I don't mind what Chamath says. inappropriate things.
