Live Questions:
36:17 I like Vivek's moral confidence in addressing the climate change scam. He was nearly quoting Alex Epstein. At this point, I would vote for Vivek. The right needs more young tech intellectuals. And Alex could have access to him in the white house.
39:20 It seems odd to me that there is no discussion of what happens if Joe Biden's health takes a nosedive before the next election. The only way I can see Trump winning is if Joe Biden can't run (or is dead).
41:21 Do you think the GOP base will vote for a young, smarmy, IV league tech bro like Vivek?
42:14 Vivek gives me Ben Shapiro vibes. Are younger conservatives looking for a fast talking, more intellectual type? As opposed to a slow speaking bible thumper?
46:13 I kind of like Chris Christie. Who doesn't like a straight talking New Yorker? He Seemed like the only adult in the room.
47:48 I think Vivek was the winner, Desantis the loser because he needed to stand out and he didn't. Overall, the debate just reaffirmed my decision to leave the GOP.
48:20 What happens when Trump views Vivek as a threat and starts going after him? I don’t see Vivek going after Trump given how much he’s been defending him?
49:52 I can't see Trump winning blue state primaries, or being the convention nominee when he's under indictments and maybe jail sentence. GOP won't do it.
50:49 I've been thinking, everyone demonizes political fascism, while the whole world seems to have embraced economic fascism. But it seems that economic fascism inexorably leads to political fascism
52:50 Yaron, why do you now find the exercise prescriptions put forth by Peter Attia more convincing then those in Body by Science?
59:50 What will cause a civil war in Russia? Is it even possible for Wagner to retaliate? How does a Russian civil war impact people in the West? It appears a Russian collapse will impact Africa and the Middle East only.
1:02:20 I do not have any questions. I do want to thank you for being such a tremendous value.
1:02:35 Republicans are in a quandary. A portion don’t care about winning per se; they’re after a political blood lust against the Left. Is the party about to splinter or is that getting carried away? Should we want a splintering?
1:04:58 Five channels for videos to review under 20 minutes: Uneducated Economist, ThisisJohnWilliams, The Economic Ninja, Nomad Capitalist, and Aaron Clarey. All channels are great to watch and make content.
1:05:33 Glad I could you live today! Could U plz explain similarities, and differences between Neoconservative approach vs Nikki Haley’s views regarding Putin, Ukraine etc. Thanks 🙏
1:10:16 Don't forget the cognitive benefits of exercise. Especially cardio, has strong evidence of cognitive benefits, which probably has something to do with the blood flow to the brain.
1:11:53 Are you still doing an annual health assessment with Human Longevity?
1:12:34 Do you think Trump has any shot at winning the general election? The thought gives me the hibbie-jibbies.
1:13:47 Quarterly and monthly zooms? Summer shows left?
1:15:18 Interesting you say “Trump is the candidate of the youth”? The Hitler Youth? Gen Z seems to be way more sympathetic to fascism and a nihilistic strong man.
1:16:57 Are you familiar with the systematic, iterative anti-aging protocol Bryan Johnson is developing? The stuff he does is pretty remarkable, with every effect on his body precisely measured.
