Well, I just popped in to reminisce about this trip that Chamath and Freeburg just did.
Scott Besson 2:07
Absolutely.

Trip of a lifetime. Trip of a lifetime. We had all the besties at the White House. It was really incredible. Oh, wait.
Jason Calacanis 2:13
Jacob wasn't there? Actually, it's interesting you say that. It's interesting. I checked my spam filters, and my invite got stuck in the spam filters.
Nick 2:22
Oh, okay.
Jason Calacanis 2:24
Yeah, it was a little bit of a problem. But I had ski week this week, so I wouldn't have been able to make it anyway. But yeah, I noticed there were some other invites stuck in my – a couple of other invites got stuck. Yeah, my Jeopardy invite. I see that you guys are all going to be in the next Jeopardy in the second round. My invite to Jeopardy somehow got lost. I have to talk to John, the CEO. So that was kind of a bummer. Also, I missed my invite to the Bridgerton. You've got a cameo in Bridgerton there, I see, Friedberg. What is it? I'm not going to be on the Netflix show Bridgerton. I missed that.

Sorry to beep that out of you, bro. Hell yeah. You're on a roll here. Keep going.
Jason Calacanis 3:23
All right, all right, let's get back to it. Let's get back to it. It was a triumphant week for our besties. There were like little school girls giggling on the group chat. Oh my God, I'm in the White House. Oh my God, look, I'm getting closer to power. What was it like, Chamath? Your dream has come true. You came here to America from Canada, you built all this from nothing, and you wound up at the White House.
Chamath Palihapitiya 3:46
Give it to me. It was probably the most intense three days that we had. Nat and I were there to see the president, but obviously we were there to see Sachs as well. But there was a bunch of other things that happened. Myself, Freeberg, New Money Sonny was there. Our bestie, Elon Musk, obviously we dropped in with him. So to recap, on Sunday we got in, it was just like raining cats and dogs, nothing to say there. Then on Monday, what happened was we basically had some meetings in the morning and then David said, guys, let me just walk you around and just show you where I work.
David Sacks 4:22
By the way, we camped out in Sax's office for three days, which was awesome. So we had the passes to be at the West Wing and in the Eisenhower building. That's Sax's office. And so we all kind of worked from there. And then we went and did our meetings from Sax's office. And Sax's incredible chief of staff, Tracy, escorted us around anytime we needed to go anywhere.
