So we had a dinner where me and Friedberg and J. Cal were invited to have dinner with the folks from and their other top podcasters.
It was an off-the-record dinner. Let's talk all about it. There was an interesting moment, which even Friedberg had to recognize, which was we went around and said, hey, what podcast are you listening to? Which ones are your favorites? We went out in the room and I got to tell you, you know what your podcaster's favorite podcast is?
Bingo. All-in podcast. Well, the funniest thing is my wife thinks I'm bullshitting all the time. I say this is a- Mine too. Pretty reasonably successful and well, she doesn't believe it. She thinks we're all bullshitting.
Why do you think I waited to make my world podcast premiere for all-in? All the ankle biters called and I said, no, I'm just going to wait.
I'm going to wait to the besties call.
Can we just say it, Nick? You got to beep it up. Power move. When the podcast called, you're like, nope, can't do it. Nope, sorry. I'm waiting for the real deal. I don't need JV.
Let your winners ride. Rain Man, David Sasson. And it said, we open sourced it to the fans and they've just gone crazy with it. Love you guys. Queen of Kicks.
All right, everybody, welcome back to the number one business, finance, technology, science podcast in the world. This is The Place. where we call balls and strikes, where we tell the truth, where there is zero censorship. Every week, we tell you about the truth behind the most important stories. We point out who the heroes are and who the villains are, who are the delightful ones and who are the disgracia. With me again on this week's program, the cackling chairman dictator, my guy, Shemoth Paliha. Tia, how you doing? How is your victory lap? How was your victory?
It was really, really, really fun.
You look like you were in your afterglow. And I have to say, that was looking pretty good. We have some pictures.
Don't worry, we're going to go through behind the scenes in a second.
Armani came through for Amore, the Amore collection from Armani coming this fall.
By the way, I mean, Armani couture is like firing on all cylinders. The other one, which you'll see, is a great picture of this incredible jacket. Louisa Beccaria. Two shout-outs. Armani and Louisa Beccaria.
You know, I was just thinking that. Armani really has been making it happen.
Now that we've talked about that, we'll talk about my wardrobe when the time comes. Just get through the rest of the interest. All right, all right.
And, of course, here he is, your sultan of science. David Friedberg.
Move along, J. Cal. Let's go. Let's go.
Wonderful. He's very bitter today. He's got a lot of anger. He is the barista of bitterness today. He's serving up bitterness all day long. And he had a great time at the, maybe he's a little upset about the Lex Friedman triangle we're in right now. I think that could be part of it. And we have a special guest here. Thomas LaFont is the co-founder of KOTU Management. They got a 50 billy under management, public, private, yada, yada. Before that, he worked at Creative Artist Agency for seven years after he went to college. So he does have the college degree. He signed Captain America. which is Freeberg's favorite Avenger. Chris Evans. Chris Evans.
Still a CAA client, by the way.
Yes, and you're still in touch with him.
I am not. You're not. But I've watched with wonder at what he's achieved after I left being his agent. It's been incredible. Great career.
Now, behind you, we see this incredible view.
You're missing the one part, which is that Thomas was one of the highest-rated speakers that we had at the All-In Summit.
Yeah. That's true, actually. He did really great last year. Really crushed it. Crushed it. Crushed it, of course. And I think I'm in the seventh bestie position and hoping potentially after the podcast to at least move up by one.
Okay. Let's see what happens here. Now, what's this view behind you? This is Los Angeles.
I definitely put you ahead of J. Cal Thomas, so you're up a spot. Oh, my God.
