Hey everyone,

Just thought I'd make a thread for our final episode of the year. We will be back soon enough in 2023 but hope the Elon episode finally coming out was a nice end of year surprise.

Any and all feedback welcome, as always!

Happy New Year!

My only peeve is that Matt has once again, introduced himself as a professor and his partner as just 'Chris Cavanaugh'. 3rd time he's done this? Chris will chuckle and just take it , but how bout some respect, MB?

Great episode. I was wondering if you’d touch on the controversies surrounding thunderfoot but I suppose that would’ve been a little too off topic

So far I am really enjoying it. I don't know if you talk about the shenanigans Elon pulled to have himself recognised as a founder of Tesla at some point in the episode, but the softball questions in the fawning audience are almost as cringeworthy as his reference to "first principles". I think I know Chris Kavanagh better than Matt does at this point! 🤗 Happy New Year to both of you and my fellow patreons. When our leaders tell us to drink from the Kool-Aid, I'll be the first in line…🤗

I'm not seeing the episode anywhere? Just the photo and text announcement.

Fantastic episode. Amazing the seeming disjunction between the self effacing ackward nerd engineer and the absurd bombastic red pilled shit posting billionaire. But only 80% self effacing, a crucial 20 % super overstated self grandiosity that ends up encompassing and defining everything. Along with the never ending stream of lies.

I'd say that this is as good as they get 10/10. I especially enjoy that you looked wider than just one conversation and incorporated more biographical stuff. This is the best way to understand people, not through a conversation but as a result of their actions. I hope you keep this going in future decodings

A wonderful surprise, and yet not surprising about Elon. What a fake. Thanks!

Gee! Sam just went in pretty hard on Elon. Between your fabulous decoding and Sams 30 min ass rape of Elon (forgive me!), I think we’re all just that little bit more enlightened. This is setup perfectly for a future revisit of Elon and “what’s he up to now” DTG episode with Sam Harris as guest in the same vain as “Weinstein World with reluctant guest Dave Pizzaro”.

Remembered Elon from ‘who killed the electric car’ doc. And didn’t know much beyond the Joe Rogan interview where he seemed a little needy to be cool, but that fit what I’ve found to be a smart nerd chic. Anyways, as always, wonderful to hear rational thinking about hard topics and people. Refreshing.

Oh, and knowing what I know now, listening to people like Kara Swisher going on and on about what a genius he is is nauseating. I mean, she's mad at him now, but constantly reminding everyone about how exceptional he is.

Relative to much earlier interviews, Musk’s speech is softer and more halting. I’ve observed in the past that those who make you have to lean in and be still and focused to listen are frequently narcissistic people deploying a deliberate strategy. The self-effacing stuff felt obnoxiously contrived. It’s so interesting to me that narcissism and great disruption seem so intertwined. Musk, Assange, Jobs, maybe Snowden as well off the top of my head, are all unpleasant, unlikeable people to me, but their likely narcissism was absolutely necessary to their respective missions. Sometimes it takes exactly these kinds of people and their inflated sense of self to mow down barriers and systems, for all that is better and all that is worse.
