I told my friend let's watch this podcast, these guys are really smart, successful and so on. The first minutes he was truly questioning if I wasn't trolling him. Jason, you really made my day!
That's what I say... These guys look too much normal, For the amount of of things they've accomplished... Until you speak with/hear what they have to say... They are gient trainers
Milei's speech was so well received by the world because it was the first time anyone who runs counter to the WEF went fully in their face against them. I have watched it 3 times and am more impressed with his repudiation of what the WEF are trying to inflict on the world.
and the US has no longer power to instruct the CIA to take him out without being called out on Social media very quickly and instantly rising negative sentiment that can prove an existential threat to the shadow powers in the US in an election year. They will all be quiet till 20th Jan 2025. Until then Milei has a full year to do his thing against the collectivist leftists wokeists!
His speech gave me hope for the future of the world and an end to the absolute insanity we have all been watching play out in front of our eyes. We can all only hope that the attendees heard and recognized the truth when they heard him speak.
@@Summerdee223 His ideology is just as flawed as the one he speaks against. And it's been tried, and failed little over 100 years ago. The result was the Great Depression. And what fixed the economy was the New Deal, which was very socialist.
Best start ever! This is the best value JCal adds to the conversations (without interruption) - humour, a perspective different than the rest of the besties (more in tune with the general public), and experimentation to see what sticks!
@@marcialabrahantes3369 if you've watched the guys personal vids to the Argentine population, they're pretty unhinged. i could see him bring back another 'dirty war' in the name of 'freedom'
You'll learn quickly how badly it works in practice. It's not the first time the world experiments with capitalism. It was the status quo until like 10 years ago, and really only after the pandemic it went out of the window. And especially 100 years ago, capitalism was barely regulated. The result was the Great Depression, Nazis, Communists, and two world wars. Communism especially became popular because of the horrible working conditions in factories and extreme income inequality created by unregulated capitalism. And why do you think socialism became so popular recently? It's because capitalism doesn't work for the common people, it only works for top 10%.
@@andrasbiro3007 so you say that we’ll learn in practice, let me ask you what have you learned in practice yourself? Have you lived in argentina, have you spoken to anybody that emigrated from venezuela or have you visited cuba?
@@thedodo1 Why do you think it will work in Argentina differently than anywhere else in the world? And FYI, I did experience it personally, at least a version of it. My country was communist for like 40 years before becoming capitalist overnight (literally overnight). That meant practically no regulation. And the broke government had to privatize all industries too. AFAIK that's a similar situation that you are having now. The following happened. Many well connected people brutally exploited the system to build massive wealth at the expense of the general population. Inflation skyrocketed, because you can't just a well functioning economy overnight, tax collection was inefficient, and corruption didn't go away either. And faced with the reality of unregulated capitalism, people swiftly voted back socialists. That didn't do much good either, so we went through several different governments until settling down on a far-right authoritarian one. Or more precisely, they took over the country by destroying competitors one by one, fixing elections, and other undemocratic means. They gradually nationalized most of the economy, and running it very incompetently and even more corruptly. Of course it won't happen exactly this way for you. The point is that capitalism is not a silver bullet that solves everything. Especially if it's unregulated. And it could go even worse, Russia also switched to capitalism in a similar way, and it was even more disastrous. Again, a few well connected people quickly hoarded all of the wealth, and left nothing to the rest of the population. The problem is that without regulations, businesses don't have to compete fairly. It's not the better product or service that wins, but the more corrupt and ruthless one. If the government is strong, then they can buy influence and turn it against competitors. If the government is weak, they buy the cops, and just kill competitors. That latter was the norm in Russia. If you want fair competition, that is really the source of economic growth, you have to enforce it. That means lots of regulations and a strong government. And also strong democratic checks and balances to keep corruption manageable.
Milei is the future of politics. If he succeeds, and you guys can truly help to get there, the World will have a true alternative to statism and collectivism.
Friedberg is my favorite. His introduction of the research on the micro plastics, his personal decision not to drink out of plastics, and his defense of them for poor countries all show a level of humanitarian and scientific nuance make him my vote for the Sultan of Sane
I laughed so many times during this episode! Thanks for the opening satire, and the other yucks that were peppered throughout. You guys are good eggs. This was actually therapeutic for me this week. Looking forward to next week’s show.😊
I think the real story about Boeing is that employees told senior management of the problem, made it very clear, and they hushed it up and ignored it on purpose.
There is no way this show would get to #162 without Jason. You can do 4 or 5 interesting podcasts with guys like Chamath and Davids but they would die before getting to 162 episodes. Jcal is indeed the worlds greatest moderator lmao
The more I watch this pod, the more I enjoy it. Great job JCal on the intro. I had to rewatch a couple of times and continued to laugh each time. Thank you guys
Fantastic show! I was hitting a dry spot with you guys (who knows, probably needed a sooner holiday break from it, lol!). The content this week was extremely insightful! Thank you, guys, for always delivering for the audience 👏🏾!
Two minutes into this episode I have changed my mind about the host (towards the positive). Well done 😂👏and thank you. I needed that laugh today. Definitely get Javier 💪💪
This was the best podcast you guys have done in a while. Lately the guys have strayed a bit, imho. But this is the kind of episode that got me interested in All In. Kudos
Software business vs marketplace vs tech enabled business. Conversation was super compelling, need to listen to that selection again. Shotout to Argentina! Afueda!
Millei’s speech was INSANE! I’ve never heard anything like it since the time of Margaret Thatcher! The sheer amount of common sense was insane. I’m a Brit and I want to give Millei the Falklands just because he’s a giga chad!
And that's exactly the problem. Margaret Thatcher did at least as much harm than good. On paper the economy got better, but at the cost of rising poverty and many other issues. The direction Millei wants to go is good, but he's going way too far. What actually works in practice is a mixed economy that's mostly capitalist, but well regulated and contains strong socialist elements. It's called the "Nordic Model", and proved to be not just beneficial to everyone, but also sustainable.
Milei has a large task ahead of him. I am going to place a small, and then rather large bet on his success. I did the same on Nayib Bukele, and that bet has paid off very well. I expect the best is ahead.
The team's perspective on the streaming business is really insightful. (1:00:47). The churn numbers are really terrifying. I had to listen to it twice to make sure I had heard the right numbers!
The best opening with a planned music piece. The show rocked. Touched on so many topics and appreciate how often one of you 4 consider how what you are talking about affects the regular person. Like the micro plastic discussion, and everything else too.
Man, Chamath is the sh9t. He literally says it how it is. Theres no bullshit, no fluff, he straight up calls it how he sees it. Not that the rest of the squad doesn't do the same.
Great job on giving it straight about "software enabled". Too many CEOs of traditional orgs come out and state they are now "software companies". They are NOT. They are "software enabled". And that's very different!
The problem is also generational. It is showing up in engineering and construction as well. The very large babyboomer generation of employees with 50 years and more of experience are all retiring leaving a huge void. That void is being filled with workers with very little experience. Expect things to get worse.
@johncleese4379 I came in when the construction market was booming, saved my money and after 21 years I bought my own business and stayed open for 34 years. I saw it all in that 55 years. What I saw happening in that last 10 years was horrendous.
@MM-wi5dn I they don't have good employees, that are well trained, paid well and make a competitive product they will be eliminated by the the competitive market.
@@johncleese4739 Think about why they were called "baby boomers", then look up birth rates in recent decades. There aren't enough young people to take over today, while a larger percentage of the population is retiring then ever in history. That has been causing economic problems for a while, but now becoming too hard to ignore. Unfortunately it's too late to fix, because young workers take 20-25 years to produce. Only automation can save us now.
Oh my god, hillareous. Today , JCal was at his best, Sooo funny. Everyone seems relaxed. I loved the dynamic. by the way, totally right about the typically-unrecyclable clam-shell containers with salads. Ridwell picks those up and they’re expanding.
