    This is mostly CEOs going on and on about how great their mission statement and company values are. Like a very softball red carpet interview, only it goes on for an hour.

    Gave up on this podcast, once again. The guests are amazing, but Nicolai ruins it by interrupting them in the middle of them sharing good info. And he doesn’t listen. Where are his follow up questions? Scripted questions are a waste of a great opportunity for a conversation. Take note of how Lex and Dwarkesh do it and get better. Then I’ll be back as a listener.

    Host has access to amazing guest, but often doesn’t let them finish their thoughts. Shame.
