Winston Churchill said, “You have enemies? Good! It means you’ve stood up for something once in your life!”

Chris, you’re knocking it out of the park recently with these guests. It’s not just the guests themselves, but your ability to connect with them and have such meaningful conversations that seem to bring out the best from both of you. Nobody can truly do you but you. Keep being yourself mate! Thanks for all the content!

The way PBD can recall different authors, entrepreneurs, and intellectualls is remarkable. Also, his superb ability to tell different stories to perfectly coincide with his points is fascinating. Chris is a incredible host. He asks questions at the best times and keeps me engaged every moment. There is a reason why this is my favorite podcast show. Whew, the amount of wisdom on this one!

Chris is spot on about not feeling the need to contribute to noise, and only to the signal on topics that he isn’t prepared or wanting to engage with. That is admirable. I wish more commentators would stay in their lane. We have WAY TOO MUCH NOISE.

Can't believe I started this to watch for a short time and could never put it down and was sad when it was over. So powerful and well done!!!! Thank you gentlemen!!!

Been waiting for this! PBD is the man

What a time we live in, these conversations are life changing to those who choose to listen!

I must be in the minority about viewing the success of others. I absolutely LOVE to see people succeed. Shows hard work paying off, and I love hard work.

The way you curate your questions/topics to hit to bring out the best of each guest and hit and drag out their niche knowledge is admirable. I’ve watched hours of PBD and still learn something here.

Pbd is one of my favourite communicators, if not my fav! The way he is able to answer to questions by using stories is a top skill many would like to learn!

What a fantastic interview. Thank you! I had the epiphany while working on the MTV Cribs Team. Traveling the country helping to produce shows in mansions while living in a studio apt in NYC at that time was getting to me at first. I went thru the feelings of feeling jealous, envious, what about me thoughts, and then I started to realize that I was rich/wealthy because I had friends and family that truly loved me and had "my back". Meanwhile I was meeting celebrities or very wealthy people who were not even sure who their real friends were. I started to see some dysfunction. I started to see the disconnection and some people putting an act for the cameras and then looking depressed once the cameras were off. Definitely an eye opening experience. Grateful

Thanks for having PBD on! I’m a regular listener of his podcast and it was a real treat to see him as the interviewee 😊

I listened to it already today on Spotify. Watching it here again because of the insane video and to take notes 📝 Thank you both for your contribution to our generation. Pat is the Man, one of my favorite people ever. Would be an honor to meet him one day and say thank you in person and to shake his hand

I listened to this over a 4/6hr work day, of course office interruptions. By the time I got to the end, I was a little sad and yearned for more - it was that phenomenal. Thank you for helping me make sense of how blessed I am with my parental combo. Great work gents.

As a videographer, your team is knocking it out of the park. Your podcasts are a staple in my life but as a pixel peeper I have to give credit where credit is due. Double down on this production quality and I could probably tell you that this channel would soar. Nobody is at this level. Well done as always. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Patrick is so sure of himself. He never says “I think”. It’s always “I know”. The wisest person leave some room for doubt!

i used to love Patrick some of the best pod cast i have seen but all i here from him is how much money everybody has as this is the one and only thing that in his mind is what success is human greed creates enemies i choose not to have enemies made lots of money only to lose it all couldnt be happier ya cant take it with you

So much wisdom in one episode.🙏🏼 Will rewatch, probably more than once. Tremendous gratitude to you both. 👏🏼

PBD's storytelling skills are unmatched.

Hey Pat I’m an Assyrian in Melbourne Australia My family never went on govt help They just used their skills I’d love to work for you What a journey it has been We look up to you

Great interview, Chris. I've enjoyed seeing you progress as a awesome person. You've grown into an excellent interviewer as well and couldn't have picked a better man to speak with.

Social media needs more people to comment on things that they are experts at. Not opinion based on feelings.

Selfless vs selfish reminds me of one of my grandmothers. I learned from her that in order to take care of others I need to be able to support myself first and do so consistently; then I can more freely give to others and support them. Otherwise you can get caught in a vicious cycle of helping others and then need to be bailed out when things go rough for you.

I’m an Independent Latino. Thank you Chris for inviting Patrick Bet-David, he is KING. 👑❤

This episode needs a book list for all the books mentioned please and thank you

The quality of the production of this episode is amazing. I watched this episode on the TV at dinner time and I had the feeling Patrick was in front of me. The discussion was very good with many layers of complexity. Happy days! 🎉

Patrick is the man! He gets better by helping us become better.

Chris. this is insane formal. I love this episode. GODDAMN. You two have insane chemistry. Ive consumed a lot of podcasts and you were my favorite for a while. I think you just solidified that status beyond the point of no return. Love it Much love from Germany

Excellent interviewer. Excellent guest. 2.5 hours, never lost my attention. Top notch quality.

One of the best podcasts ever seen.

4 at night in Holland, still listening.. inspiring boys! Thanks for the content

Much love and respect for both of you gentleman.

You have to have a line for your kids to follow. When I was growing up my day was get up At 5am and I was tutored on passing whatever national Exam I had to do. Then at 7 took a shower then breakfast, by 8 I was at school. After school my driver picks me up at 3pm I have another 1-2 hours of tutoring and homework. By the time I get home it’s 5pm. I can’t just toss my bag down and my uniform. I had to polish my shoes, shower and eat dinner. After dinner I had to wash the dishes even though I had a maid that could do it. No games on week days. If your grades fell / I messed up bad no games, tv or phone grounded can’t go out. In fact I had no tv for abt two years I watched local news for entertainment and at the time I hated it but I have discipline and that’s what a lot of youth lack.

Chris this production looks breathtaking, what an amazing conversation

Because of *pbd* ... First time viewer and a *new listener to this show* . Interesting questions asked and raised. Thank you. Mr p decker.

You really built this one up. I saw a few 10 minute clips, I've been searching for this episode for the past week and a half😂 like Wtf... Well worth the wait. Thank you brotha

Probably one of my favourite podcast episodes of the show! 👏

Ive listened to alot of wisdom that came from pat he is pro at all levels good cast.

these production values - kudos to the whole crew !

Love the respect to let one another talk.

Who would bet on Goliath when we got Pat David?

I admire the direct & unpretentious manner that these two men hammer on issues & ideas. It inspires confidence to keep cultivating courage & purpose.

I realize you can still learn things from unethical people, but any video of PBD needs to come with a massive disclaimer about his wealth and success coming from a predatory MLM scheme. For years now he’s been trying to distance himself from this past by reputation-laundering through his podcasts and appearances exactly like this.

That opening was fire 🔥 I feel the same, competition drives me, the hate is fuel 🇺🇸

PBD is a stud. Truly inspiring and very likable. The PBD podcast is among the top 5 in the world IMO.

PBD has a talent for nutshelling difficult and abstract concepts.👍

Chris & Patrick - one of the BEST interviews ever!!!

I adore PBD. Thank you for this excellent conversation.

Pat and Chris in a pod, this is definitely going to be good!!.. Time to dig in Boyss

Where does this man find these sets? They're always so gorgeous.

this guy is the best podcaster of today, congrats dude, u are excellent at this

Words of wisdom!!! Enjoy every minute of this conversation!!

half hour in to busy with coming tests. always love hearing Patrick Bet-David on podcasts, such a wellspoken and intelligent guy (you too Chris)!

One of my favorite conversations of all time ! Love this !

Great podcast Chris! Been watching you for a while and you keep improving every time! Great questions and insights in this one, particularly in the dilemma of being successful and raising good kids.

Really enjoy hearing Chris speak/interview especially with PBD probably my favorite speaker of all time

I had been wondering for the last several years - since maybe 2016-17ish - why I had such a lack of energy, motivation, interest, ambition, etc. I mean, I thought I was basically at the end of at least my own personal development if not even the end of my life to some extent - like the same minimal routine for the next X years or decades and then die - like I was just going to go to work, come home, watch RU-vid and maybe play video games for a few hours, sleep and repeat - no hobbies, no friends, no adventure, no changes or growth, no extra effort beyond absolute minimum, etc. And I haven't always been like that - I was raised to be almost militantly against laziness and I always loved having hobbies and learning things, going on adventures, hanging out with people, etc. But I had a span of my life where I was an alcoholic and multi-drug addict - but when I finally managed to quit, that's when my energy, motivation, interest in literally anything, etc. all vanished and I probably slept around 20 hours a day for over a year. I had gotten to the point where I could stay awake most of the day and do most of what I needed to do but I would still start falling asleep if I wasn't moving - like driving or doing relatively stationary work. I had a sleep study scheduled all the way back in 2019 but something happened and I never went and then I just kind of forgot that was even a consideration. Well, a few weeks ago, I finally had a sleep study and found out I have sleep apnea - I'm a big dude but not huge and this only started right after quitting drugs, because I was always the most energetic person I knew and the last one asleep so I'm thinking the drugs and booze and quitting them was the cause - but I've been totally miserable for all of these years and my wife (who was the one who helped me quit drugs) even left me back in June for several reasons related to my low energy and motivation - all of this, and I could have fixed the problem and started participating in life again and probably would still have my wife and be in a much happier marriage now - I could have gotten better years ago.. So all of that to say, I've felt like a worthless, lazy bastard this entire time - especially when reading/watching anything related to bettering your life - business, fitness, adventure/recreation, etc. - and maybe I'll finally be getting back to normal. They're doing one last sleep study in a few days to calibrate/test/setup the CPAP on me. Every last person I've talked to who has gone through this has said the CPAP basically changed their lives... I've prepared myself though - I think the apnea is probably only part of it.. Being stuck in this mode all these years, I'm probably going to have to work on some habits/behaviors I developed in this time that are just in my head/mental that are controlled by my level of determination..

Reminds me of an old saying I heard from my dad back in he day. 'Son, if you are to survive, you must be one of three things. Strong. Smart. Or Crazy. You'll go far.'

Chris is on the up and up. Well done. Hard work pays off. Your focus is on the right things. 📈

Train from Kings Cross to York. Didn’t expect to watch all of this. Unputdownable!

PBD is so well prepared and dedicated and focused. His energy emanates

I’m only half way through and I’m already wishing this interview was longer, two of my favourite people at the table. Chris this is why I love your channel so much. KUDOS.

What I like when I'm watching and listening to this kind of conversation are the title of the books mentioned and what the books about. It is not that they are making recommendations, but their talking about the reason why that book is interesting and the lesson you can get out of it. Just sharing pure wisdom and knowledge.

Two admirable Professionals 🙏

So good! The underdog support that everyone has for the person that’s on the come up reminds people of their dreams and when your at the top everyone tries to tear you down because you remind them of what they gave up on.

"Everyone is your enemy. Everyone is your friend. Every series of events is happening all at once. Live that way and nothing will surprise you. Everything that happens will be something that you've seen before." Little Finger.

Two of my favorites!

Thanks! This is exactly what I needed to hear today on my journey. Both of you have beautiful minds and articulate your thoughts so well. I pray the two of you have continued success as I pray for my own strength and success in Life. Please keep sharing the Truth! It is so refreshing to hear!

Never disappointing

Such a great podcast . Both extremely interesting and new insights they bring to the table

Patrick is the only person I've heard that takes 5 minutes to say something that could've taken 1 sentence.

Had been waiting for a podcast with Patrick for a very long time, thank you very much for another podcast masterpiece

Regarding the "Palestine/Israel opinion thing": I think it was Buffet who said something along the lines of "You don't need to have an opinion on everything." A very liberating stance to take.

This interview is BALLER! I keep going back to it. My compliments to both the guest and the interviewer!

Thanks again Chris for another amazing episode. Listened to this one on my run this morning, really enjoyed the knowledge Patrick shared. One day I’ll sit across from you! Keep up the great work 👊

Chris, you are simply one of the best interviewers. Thank you for the content.

Rogan's value difficulty conflating 57:45

I’m a fan of you both. As well as others who encourage personal and community responsibility . This was one of the best podcasts I have ever engaged with. Thanks for the conversation you two!

@Patrick bet-david : Love is a choice. When the feelings fade, and emotions reverse so one doesn't even like the other person, love, then, becomes a choice.

Broooooo!! The answer about not commenting on online stuff because not enough information!!! Thank you!! More people need to be this way pleeeease

This was such a good episode! God damn I couldn't stop listening to it

Thank you Chris, the world needed you .

PBD always giving value information. Im getting the books he recommended. ❤❤❤❤❤

Great interview - well done

Chris FWIW there are many of us who like the fact that you don’t weigh in on the political topic du jour. Your instincts are on point, that’s not what we’re here for.

Your videos are saving lives and improving our mortal experience. Your channel is priceless, inspiring and full of rare competence.

I seriously just wish this was longer! Thank you guys

Great interview. Also can't help commenting on how Mr. Bet-David looks in this video. The suit, the tie, the watch. Chef's kiss.

An enemy is a good whetstone. Played baseball as a kid and my town had 2 teams (12 in the league). I hated one of the kids on the other team. We played the same position and were both picked for all-stars every year and competed for that position. We both got really good. By HS we were by far the best players on the team and then he moved and I quit getting better. Actually quit playing halfway through senior year after 13 years of baseball. We even competed for grades in school. Always in the same stupid classes and was always #1 and 2. GPA dropped right after. It's like I needed a reason to try and future rewards were not enough.

Two of the greatest podcasters of all time, converging for a great episode. I love it🔥🏆

Two of my favorites. Great podcast.

This is the rare podcast where you come away with more respect for the host during the discussion.

Well done Chris, you have pulled off some great podcasts recently!

Been waiting for this one!! Two handsome, educated, masculine men coming together to create intellectual friction!!! Helping us all “get off” in a sense! Saving this video to rewatch later!!!

Great episode. Love Pat and his way of communicating

I could listen to PBD the whole day. Such a great story teller.

This guy should've been a TV psychic.
