It would be prudent for Sacks to go through Senate confirmation. Traditionally, significant government roles undergo Senate confirmation to ensure accountability and transparency.
Jason: "If they hide Biden having Alzheimer's, that should be a crime" White guy for kamela: "Um, this isn't the type of politics I can have an opinion on" Chamath: " More money = better outcome is a lie. We as startups can outdo them" WGFK: "Uh yeah! Can't add more. Um." Amazing
If a panelist (even if he's a guest) refuses to answer a question (38:50) what's the point of his presence? Such recusal lowers the quality of the entire panel.
Yes indeed. J Cal probably should avoid guests who are running publicly traded companies. They cannot speak their mind on politics and culture without incurring risk to their company's image and therefore do not have free speech.
@@cesaraugustus9064 Your poignant point reminds me of what happens when a press release, email, or text message goes through the filter of corporate compliance . . . and once any words pass through said filter, the message winds up saying nothing at all. I don't know any podcast listeners interested in hearing a panelist say nothing or even a sanitized version of an opinion. Maybe this also sums up Kamala's campaign. Hers was a peak-corporate compliance campaign . . . and we know how that ended.
The guy is rubbing shoulders with an incoming presidential administration. He used the podcast to gain influence when he was on the outside. I wouldn't expect him to be back until he has a message he wants to push publicly.
@@Rebelass74President DJT picked him to be in his cabinet so he’s in meetings preparing etc. I hope he comes back, but that is a great honor for him!!!!
@@Rebelass74 So he's been picked as a senior advisor for economics (including crypto) and AI, I think (Someone will correct me if I'm wrong) by Trump. He'll be setting up the regulatory/governance frameworks for the administration, and obviously feed inputs and opinions through the course of the 4 years. I think he'll keep swinging by this podcast occasionally, but will be a busy time for him
It’s only a matter of time before the impact of cutting essential services to the common person hits. Then we will see what these efficiency savings are really about
Anyone who openly supported Harris without some major Caveats has incredibly poor judgment at this point. Be very skeptical of any CEOs that fall in this bucket
I think conspiracy bros are the real NPCs now. Since so much of twitter & TH-cam, especially biggest podcasts are full of conspiracy thinking, being a conspiracist is no different than being a conformist at this point. The real non-NPC behaviour is to filter out all the bullshit conspiracies and focus on real ones. Sacks views are just too much of vanilla Tucker Carlson-esque "they are coming for you" NPC behaviour for my liking
@TheUMESH34 ??? This pod is all about the hosts sharing their thoughts on topical issues. Sacks did that as much as any of them. Sacks just happened to be the most right-leaning of the four (which you are free to like or dislike) with JCal his counterweight. Trump is the president elect with Elon as a major advisor... and Sacks is a good friend of Elon's. I don't know if this pod played any major role in Sacks getting his position. I don't know how Sacks can be said to have "milked the pod" or "step[ped]" on anything.
@@mjribesthey asked a few episodes ago on the pod to sacks if he'd leave given trump gives him some position and he denied it stating he enjoys his work in the private sector. now that trump nominated him, he decided to leave the podcast, i absolutely think his goal was to milk this podcast
@ so true! And then I’d just get suspense like when is he gonna speak - at least there was a chance he’d speak cause he was there. And now this. Meh. Sorry I know the fourth guest is special or whatever but every time they have this rotating roster of newbies I don’t like it. I ain’t never heard of them
The biggest plus is that how our government has been run/managed/mismanaged is coming to light and the voters will now have the opportunity to see all kinds of coverups and can voice their opinions on all of it. The awareness level of all of the above is going from zero to…??? Congrats to all leading this enormous effort.
Yesterday I had a revelation about the NJ drones. While walking my disobedient dogs it came to me that it was a US government psyop intended to raise public cover for new more restrictive regulations, follow the money and more regulations lead to high paying jobs jobs as regulators, their supervisors, the dept. heads, and on and on. Regulation itself is a huge industry and they aren’t going to give up without a fight. Love watching you guys, your show inspires higher level thought, which adds immensely to my mundane days.
@Clyde.artwork trump interfered with the 2020 election, demonstrates extreme narcissism, and a complete lack of character. He also does not care about cutting spending as these VCs who love to hear themselves speak, suggest. He wanted to suspend the debt ceiling
Steel Man the Argument from Several Angles: Well, we do significant business with the Federal Government and they never push back on our price, however they do take a long time to pay. Leaders use judgement and have character. You can have poor character and have good judgement (see JFK) or vice versa (see Carter). I vote 90% on character and could not vote Trump. I have always identified as a Democrat Progressive and will always vote the Party, no matter what they do. While Harris did not articulate her positions, I do believe she would have been more moderate. With that opinion, I voted Harris.
One of the best qualities of this pod has been bringing guests on to talk about their areas of expertise. Then having a robust discussion. I’m actually getting pretty sick listening to the pontificating about MSTR without letting Saylor on the pod. He has publicly stated he wants to come on. What is the issue? Is he evading coming on? If not, why aren’t you having him on? Why don’t you want him answering the questions you repeatedly ask others? Most of which say “I’m not sure, but…”. I thought you guys were better than this.
That Chamath guy really seems able to break down complicated partisan issues into digestible bite sized packets that do not trigger the extremists on the left. I hope he joins DOGE
To all of you saying it’s not the same without Sacks - the show wouldn’t be the same if any of the 4 were gone. They are all doing very important things outside of All in Pod. It’s only normal for 1 of the 4 to not be able to always attend. Doesn’t mean we should start shitting on the show. Show is still great - it’s at its best with the original 4 but those will be treats. That’s how I see it.
Hat tip Friedberg for bringing receipts. Not enough Americans know the Federalist Papers even exist, let alone understand them and how our federal government should actually work. Favorite bestie.
We want Sack-sie-poo!!! His nuanced articulation of innovation, business, technology, politics, and their interrelationships along with his relentless sincerity is irreplaceable.
The people of America have reinvigorated their curiosity in how their government works. Their concerned, they care. That's the major shift I've noticed in my social circle, and even strangers I meet. Its a wonderful thing.
Wow, what an insightful and entertaining episode! The discussion on AI's impact on software development and the government spending debate was fascinating. The drone mystery in NJ? Intriguing! Thanks for another great All-In.
Regarding reforming Fed Spending, things that have been game changers: 1. The death of the MSM who have been pulling the wool over our eyes for decades 2. The free speech enabled by Elon Musk on X 3. AI tools that enable you to break down these huge bills and find the pork. 4. Pointing out to people in a way they can understand that government spending is a tax and so is inflation
when I’m alone in the dark, looking up at the moon, I know Sacks is somewhere out there looking up at that same moon
😂😂
knock-knock
who's there?
sacks is gone
😂 Especially when you're under his window 👀
😂😂😂
Did you finally scare sacks off?
Miss Sacks Button👍
Not in love with Sacks button
Who is Miss Sacks? never seen her.

Either have him or don’t
It would be prudent for Sacks to go through Senate confirmation. Traditionally, significant government roles undergo Senate confirmation to ensure accountability and transparency.
This just isnt the same without sacks. Each of the four besties brings their own dynamic that cant be replaced
Sacks was almost unbearable at one point with his constant politicization of topics, but his absence now makes me miss even that
Give it time...I used to like Yusko on Blockworks, now I like it just the same
@@patrickel-hage9769 can’t recall a topic Sacks politicized that wasn’t warranted. His perspective counterbalances Jcal’s leftist view
Yea like I don’t want to hear them talk about the TikTok ban without Sacks.
Rabois in the last ep was way more interesting than sacks ever was
With Sacks, number 1 podcast in the world.
Without Sacks, number 732 podcast in the world.
Wow where are these nunbers comig from?
Agreed. I’m bummed he hasn’t been here for any TikTok ban discussions since he backs TikTok. The debate is too lopsided without him.
@@paulhoovdaddy What is the end goal of you spamming this under every top comment.
Without Sacks, it's like the Silicon Valley show without TJ Miller.
@@mbevin yup
Friedberg's articulation of the debt and big government problem is one of the most mature and well-reasoned perspectives I've encountered.
Friedberg is the new Sachs. Sort of
@@LetsWalk-sn1bu On fiscal issues only, though
Subbing Sacks for “White Guys for Kamala” is wild😂
Lmao
He completely passed on tough questions on the Dem failings too
Jason: "If they hide Biden having Alzheimer's, that should be a crime"
White guy for kamela: "Um, this isn't the type of politics I can have an opinion on"
Chamath: " More money = better outcome is a lie. We as startups can outdo them"

Amazing

Trying to replace Sacks with someone who can't even speak his mind on Biden's dementia is sad.
no alpha
I'd call for him to tell us what he really thinks, but I'm not sure he knows.
Yep, thought the same thing.
Tge new guy a Woke prisoner.
Right?
I cannot listen to this podcast without the voice of reason. Bring back Sacks.
@@rsollinger sacks is king. Fact.
Exactly!
If Aaron doesn’t answer questions and passes. He’s not the right guy.
100% not all in culture
He's CEO of a publicly listed company, I think he did well
Literally everyone does. Chamath and David both passed on questions in this episode.
His hands are tied as a listed CEO
Definitely
Not the same without Sacks guys.
They need a full on conservative on here lol
Team dynamics are imbalanced without DS there, it transcends through round-table commentary perspectives...
@ especially when the new guy won't opine on certain topics. Need someone who speaks their mind.
@ yes maybe avoid the public company figures. However, he had some interesting perspectives within his domain.
@ yeh Im not saying he was bad at all. It's just not as lively, gets a bit stale with someone who is restricted on what he can talk about
Sacks was my favorite. He taught me a lot
Same. Just one example: I’m bummed he hasn’t been here for any TikTok ban discussions since he backs TikTok. The debate is too lopsided without him.
Friedberg held it down for the Libertarians and independents this episode, very well done.
He always does.
The new Sachs. Sort of. Find a conservative, guys
David Friedberg is extremely knowledgeable and a deeply thoughtful, kudos
Friedberg has been on fire for the last six months. Love to see it
When will sacks be back?
I'm worried that he was just looking for a pretext to bail on the pod.
after trump gets impeached for the third time LOL
After he eliminates the deepstate
@@Exzeph I don't think so, he's serving the nation now in a much bigger way.
The guy is rubbing shoulders with an incoming presidential administration. He used the podcast to gain influence when he was on the outside. I wouldn't expect him to be back until he has a message he wants to push publicly.
20:42 Friedberg starts to give one of the best explanations of fiscal conservatism ever made.
let's hope David at least makes a monthly guest appearance once the dust settles 🥺
Where is he? Can’t seem to find the answer? What happened? Did he fall out with the guys?
@@Rebelass74President DJT picked him to be in his cabinet so he’s in meetings preparing etc. I hope he comes back, but that is a great honor for him!!!!

Sacks is the ace of the group.. evident when not present. Amazin’
We need more Sacks
He has a real job now
Sacks needs to be on next week. He is missed.
I am happy Doge killed an awful, expensive and destructive bill. Let us keep Elon and Vivek on the job...they may be all we have!
Why do they want to raise the debt ceiling if they are trying to cut out inefficiency?
It’s only a matter of time before the impact of cutting essential services to the common person hits. Then we will see what these efficiency savings are really about

Love you guys, but miss ya Sacks!!!
Didn't finish this one, first in a very long time. This pod is going to wither without Sacks.
There’s a decent chance this podcast dies without sacks
Totally agree. I’m getting frustrated they haven’t addressed when he’ll be back if at all.
Seems like a decent chance you die without Sacks

Gonna take a hit
@@JP-rj1cdoh so clever🙄
Please tell me Sacks is not GONE gone. After 1/20 he’ll be back right? RIGHT?!

He done
Running a shadow government
Sacks is part of the incoming administration so they're in meetings working on alot
@@damo1234jordan he was appointed to the Trump administration

Aaron not equal a bestie
We need sacks back!
The end where they all ask for David Sacks to come back was very sincere, Aaron Levie was not a good fill in.
I see all the comments about people missing David Sacks. Still a good show 💕 thank you.
Sacks! Sacks! I need Sacks! Don't tell me we don't hear from Sacks for 4 years!!!😢😢😢😢
Sacks was born in my home town of Cape Town.

Sacks is Bruce Wayne, who is also Batman. Therefore, Sacks is Batman.
Aw no, is Sacks now gone from All In? 😢
We can only hope!

sacks was the only reason I watched this podcast.
This might be my least favorite guest you guys had on the show so far. Can't share his real opinions. Pretty useless in this discussion.
When I hear successful people say they supported the Harris ticket, I'm dumbfounded. Also, it's "analyzes"
If you cant understand the other sides perspective, one might be taking too narrow of a view on things
