Here's my conversation with @IvankaTrump, a businesswoman, real estate developer, and former senior advisor to the President of the United States. We talk about politics, architecture, philosophy, fashion, music, parenting, martial arts, and much more.

I've gotten to know Ivanka well over the past 2 years. We first connected over our mutual love of reading and discussing books (for example by Marcus Aurelius, Joseph Campbell, Alan Watts, etc). She is a truly kind, compassionate, and thoughtful human being, and I'm honored to be able to call her a friend.

It's here on X in full, and is up on YouTube, Spotify, and everywhere else. Links in comment.

Here's my 8.5 hour conversation with @elonmusk & @neuralink team.

It is the longest podcast I've ever done! 🤯 It's a fascinating, super technical, and wide-ranging conversation.

It's here on X & everywhere else, including YouTube:

On X, it's split up into 3 parts (in replies to this post) due to the current 4 hour limit for video. I continue to push the X engineering team to increase the limit... up it to 10 hours let's go! 🤣

Thank you to Elon Musk, DJ Seo, Matthew MacDougall, and Bliss Chapman who are part of the amazing Neuralink team: @elonmusk, @djseo_, @matthewmacdoug4, and @chapman_bliss.

And thank you to Noland Arbaugh (@ModdedQuad) who is the first human to have a Neuralink device implanted in his brain.
