Lex Fridman received the rare opportunity to speak with Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the President of Ukraine, while Russia continues to invade his country. We look at what Lex did with that opportunity, including discussions of his dreams for peace, what would happen if Russia and Ukraine joined NATO, and the most important topic- just how much Zelensky likes Joe Rogan and Elon Musk.

This was recorded while Matt travelled in the US, hence the audio quality and awkward camera positioning. He's back in Australia now so things will return to normal!

Lex's voice and tone, affectations much? It's even worse on video now I know what is coming!!! He really is gormless. If that is an appropriate word? For some reason this is the one that has hit a nerve with me! :-) :-)

Zelensky gives great 'Fuck off, childman' face.

Join me in a moment of silence for Zelensky's PR officer, who will soon be on the Russian front.

I have never understood the appeal of Lex and just watched in disbelief as people who I admire go on his circus show. Keep up the great work guys!

It was such a disgusting interview from my view. Lex simped for the far right and Putin, while expecting Zelenskyy to essentially say, "Yeah, we will forgive everyone for every atrocity, and we will have open borders and it'll be like it never happened". It is abhorrent. Zelenskyy is a true man. A man never born for the position he is in, who didn't run in fear or self preservation, but has stayed, iron fisted with his people, against the god complex referred to as Russia.

Lex is truly a pathetic individual. It really needs to be investigated how this guy became so big.

Zelenskyy telling Lex his Russian sucks. That hit Lex hard. 😂💀

Lex really is despicable

I listened to the audio first and the second time around was worse. I also do not care for that man.

There should be a special circle of Hell for people who pressure the oppressed to capitulate to their oppressor, just to make the world appear peaceful from afar.

I would love if just the pic of Zelenskyy was of him in army fatigues covered in sweat, blood and grime. The juxtaposition with Lex in a suit talking about going to comedy clubs with Joe Rogan would nicely illustrate the unserious dynamic Lexi brings to the discussion.
