E1: US Response to COVID-19 & Impact on Startups, VC & Public Markets with David Friedberg 

Rewatching 3 years later... crazy how far we've come and how naive we were.

Coming back in 2024, after having watched all the 200 episodes.

I just want to hear a lecture series by Chamath about how the world monetary system works. Just recently learned about the fed and repo markets... wild stuff

The world needs Chamath 🙏🏾 The observations are 👌

Fascinating to listening to this a few years later.

Good to know I been here almost from the beginning. I started because of Chamath and stay for Sacks and Friedberg

I don't know how exactly this show works - maybe this was a first episode? Will Chamath be a regular or is there a guest rotation? In any case, this was a fantastic, thank you! Excited to see and hear more.

S&p 500 was 2400 at this date. They literally recorded at the bottom of the dip.

Jason has definitely bettered his looks in 2024.

Here from Hyperchange. Now to binge the rest of All-In.

It is always amazing to see the way these folks talk. Purely logical stuff.Thanks for putting this up on the internet.

These podcasts are great. Thank you! Hearing you guys during a time of unchartered waters is so much value. Take care gentlemen, looking forward to the next

#TeamHyperchange

Gali sent me here! I guess here is the place to start! Looking forward to it!

Chamath has an incredible mind. Wow! What a conversation. I thought I was an intelligent human. I’ve changed my mind

This was a great listen. I would pay to hear Chamath, David and Jason talk regularly at length and in this type of format.

Love the logic and sense in all three but love more the quality of human beings they appear to be.

Ah the innocence of it all!

Chamath please do podcast with Gali from hyperChange about Tesla⚡

What a time to be alive

Thank you Chamath, David and Jason for sharing your knowledge, insights and bringing awareness on so many relevant topics!

Please guys keep doing this. There is soooo much we can learn from long form discussions like this. Its awesome! Thanks for doing it :)

Fun to watch this 1st pod in the present..... July 1 2021..... What we have seen and learned since then...

here from HyperChange

Watched all hundred episode and now going back to #1. Wow

Where it all started

Just recently discovered Chamath on CNBC, my new hero lol! Love this podcast, please keep doing it guys.

Gali’s a legend for recommending this podcast. I’m loving this you guys a fantastic. Love hearing straight up common sense minus any bull shit. Thanks guy’s

Interesting. We appreciate your time and efforts with these podcasts. If I may, a few observations from the cheap seats: (1) those nations that have been most successful in minimizing the impact of Covid-19 responded early, and they responded thoroughly; (2) masking, testing, tracking - effectively - are crucial; (3) if and when shelter-in-place (for non-critical positions) is established, it should be done, and there doesn't need to be any economic pain - or at the very least any economic pain can be minimized; (4) a self-sustaining UBI for the duration, and zero interest bridge loans w/flexible terms for businesses who might need assistance during the hiatus, can all be done, easily, and the economic pain is basically gone; (5) those who might cringe at the notion of a UBI, or that government by definition must not be allowed to be helpful - those mindsets are not helpful. The "free market" is not sacred, government and the market must be complementary, a temporary self-sustaining UBI is not the end of the world. (6) current U.S. practices, with little if any national leadership, are not working. Indeed, the vast majority of the 145,000 covid-19 fatalities in the U.S. have all been unnecessary. Our lack of effective leadership is actually killing our own people, needlessly, and making this entire process even longer and/or worse than it otherwise has to be.

This is actually really interesting to listen to 3 years later.

they just interviewed the president of united state. What a journey

Pure brilliance being witnessed here. Thank you @HyperChange for giving us the heads up. Subscribed and instant super fan of All In podcast!

Re-watching the entire pod list today onwards. Love it when the Chamath said "Hate not being able to touch and feel you" and then the "man-love" thingy. Hahah!

Awesome stuff guys, can't wait for episode 2.

Who is here after the 100th episode

all of you guys were amazing! so insightful ~~

thank god for the timestamps

Boy were you guys WAY off on the timeline. Look forward to hearing future podcasts. Also, WET Markets exist in the US. The Fish Market in Seattle is a great example of FRESH food coming in straight from the boats. Cheers!

Signing up due to Gali's recommendation. Very happy with what I heard so far. :-)

Chamath, looking forward to seeing you on Hyperchange :)

Loved this, please do another one again soon

I wish the host would let Chamath and other finish their thoughts.

Thank you guys for sharing

I see Chamath i click

4 Years later... wow

At 49:10 he says anyone can buy the non FDA approved tests, can someone tell me where to get them.

thank you

Hi, Hope you guys are well. Thanks for the content. Is there any way we can ask questions which you could answer during the podcast?

Bird singing outside the window : Chirp Chamath : thats asymptomatic

Just finished the backlog. J Cal gets progressively smarter thankfully.

Guys, 20/20 gene systems make those 15 min tests. Us company and fda approved

I know Chamath is baaically a genius and communicates so well, but who is David? wow he blew me away

This is when market started bullish run. Also my son was born this week. Nasdaq was 7000, Dowjones 19000 S&P 2200. Few trillions went to market and now we are suffering consequences. Recession , Inflation market crash. . Watching on 2022-06-26

Hyperchange got me here, I’m halfway through this one, I subscribed and will be watching everything else going forward

Friedberg was SO right about Covid... replacing fauci with him 34 months ago or so would have been so much better for the country

Just saw epiosde 76 and 76.5 and, wanted to start from the beginning

wow, was here since the beginning and this pops up on my recommended. The pod has come a long way and many pounds were lost!

Wow listening to this on January 20th, 2022.

"What the fuck fucking what the fucking fuck" - Chamath 2020

The number of subs on this page will increase at a faster rate than Covid cases in US. #UnflattenedCurve

Great talk guys. However no antibody testing ever happened as of May 22. Now what?

wow friedberg looks like he's 16 and jcal looks like he ate sachs

Best quote from the episode: “Back to normal by April 8th 2020.”

Galley sent me you guys are great.

Hans rosling was not an economist. He was a medical doctor.

Rather than keeping the economy open the powers that be locked down and de valued the currency and propped up wall st... hence inflation that we haven’t felt the half of yet now in December 2022

Where is the pilot episode?

Gali from HyperChange sent me!!

Great work

Where can we buy these igg tests online?

Great video. Technical point from my wife a physician and ms in micro biology. There is window where both antibody tests are negative but the patient has had the virus from cure to one month out. Do I not understand Chamath's net worth or could he not pay for the study? Chamath example of redundancy was wrong. There is no shortage of iPhones and it is a monopolistic product. Toilet paper has a shortage and is very competitive and takes up a tremendous amount of retail real estate. Even at events like this happenning once every ten years adding factory capacity or shelf space would raise the cost and give competitive position to actors who do not follow the safer levels. The excess capacity can not be paid for during a crisis as people would go to jail for gouging. JIT is a local maxima and new maxima must be found that is near it profit maximization or people will keep going toward it. Shutting everything down reinforces JIT as there is less stranded inventory.

need more

Best ever

Spanish flu originated in Kansas, but I agree with the premise.

Regarding the luxury goods, I agree in the short term it will be hit hard but advertisement and “cool people” will push them back into the world. Weak minded people will quickly bend back and crave these items because they have yet to experience the lack of difference a luxury item has compared to an average item and they want to look “cool” too.

look how much better their houses look after the pandemic!

I discovered this show two weeks ago and binged my way back to the first ep, do I have issues?

NHS is awesome

7 August 2022

Bro, Friedberg sounds like Vitalik in this ep

Would love to know y’alls opinion now

I think your podcast would be much better if you had guest come on and cut you off constantly while always shooting for that gotchya moment. Also, have Hyperchange on!

Great content and I thoroughly enjoyed the conversation. Can't help but get a little frustrated by Jason's insistence that this is going to blow over rather quickly even while his two guests are adamant that this is no where near over. This is way bigger than a 30 - 60 day issue for the everyday citizen.

Why the hell has this only had 20k views and 804 likes...

Thank you guys for an awsome video. How I see this, it looks like a patient in a hospital telling himself if I feel better and release from hospital will start to work out,eat healthy and take care of myself, but in a few weeks he will go back to the same routine as before and forget everything. I dont beleive nationalism works for economy with all the new technilogies we are getting even closer to a global village. Not acceptable beaviours in any culture should be let go for good. Need more educated individuals.

jcal looks younger now then he did 4 years ago

51:01 he is talking about warren buffet here. He benefited a lot from America but when Americans are suffering, he disappears into thin air.

True fan

In 1 year Chamath went from H&M Ts to $9K jumpers

Hindsight is 20/20. Foresight is priceless. Spot on.

People in India have been taking chloroquine most of their adult lives for malaria. We have enough data to analyze to determine its safety

1:05:00 chamath

go back to normalcy in 10 days, 30 days or 60 days? Try 3 months, 6 months, or longer.

The only problem with what Chamath is saying is that he is thinking thew his minds eye, and how things probably "should" be handled. But unless people absolutely CANNOT spend on fancy toys and unnecessary things, they WILL. And most companies are run by greedy money hungry people. They aren't looking at how they may effect the future. That just seems to be human nature these days.

where it all...

1st one watched, won't be the last Shout out to Gali

that’s when you should have jumped into the market 😂

who is David?

Chamath is putting the foundation to run for office. Mark my words
