It's pretty damn good I think because Rick comes at it from a totally different perspective than most of his other interviewers. The other interviewers are just repeating the same questions over and over again
I always love listening to Peter Thiel. He is endlessly fascinating and enlightening. Thank you for this. Now for some reason I want to listen to 99 Problems.
Nice conversation but chill a little bit the RUclips ads. I watched 40 minutes and got a RUclips ad every 5 minutes. Kind of hard to watch it when it cuts off so frenquently.
Good interview, but more due to the questions and giving Thiel the space to respond. He is actually quite honest and direct in his interviews, I just think most people are afraid to ask him direct enough questions.
things that are hard are not valuable is one of the smartest takes. Essentially I see people grinding leetcode. Being good at coding is valuable. going from being number 1500 in leetcode to number 20 isnt valuable. and takes 100x more efforts
This feels like a producer getting the best takes out of a well-tuned band, which I guess is fitting. Namely I can't believe Rick got Peter to talk geopolitics and Gawker in the same conversation.
More transparency please..databroker..DARPA..ect... everyone knows some of the background...and is alert and knowledgeable...now is the time to talk about it.
"L'amour est bleu" (French pronunciation: [lamuʁ ɛ blø]; "Love Is Blue") is a song recorded by Greek singer Vicky Leandros with music composed by André Popp and French lyrics written by Pierre Cour. It represented Luxembourg in the Eurovision Song Contest 1967 held in Vienna, placing fourth. --wikipedia
Rick, love you, great convo, but the amount of ads between RUclips placed + Tetra created is extremely distracting - kinda contradicts your creative focus/attention mantra. This is not The Way 🤙❤

Also, 1) he probably pays people to help with the podcast. 2) He might like the products that are promoted. Getting paid to promote things you think are good is good.
Going further in time, i am increasingly wary of audio recorded interviews, with no video.. i cant tell of these voices are even real - especially with the fake interviews with dead ppl etc.. huh?
@@davidsobell Very true. I saw one of Obama admitting Michelle was "big Mike" with a big d**k, and telling people to vote for Kamala regardless if she's an idiot or not so he could fix everything. It looked as real as could be. I laughed cause I knew it was fake but someone else may have thought they were watching something real.
@@playertwo9895that only works when humans are honest. What’s preventing someone from falsely signing their voice? How would you know they weren’t paid to have their voice likeness used and personal key used in conjunction?
interesting how thiel admits that it wasnt uncommon knowledge that he was gay when Gawker outed him. begs the question: why give a limitless legal budget to anyone to sue them (using hogan as a vector) for something that wasnt a big deal, and apparently not even much of a secret?? perhaps it was Gawker publishing the epstein client list, which happens to include thiel....
The reason is that Gawker was a serial offender; they had already targeted many people Thiel knew. So if he wanted to shut down Gawker, he only needed to wait for them to publish something clearly indefensible, which eventually happened five years after they outed him. On the Epstein thing, you probably should spend less time on X and more than time in reality.
do you guys think i should just go in debt and live the best life i can? i got pricked and probably wont be able to reproduce or have a heart attack within a few years lol
"you know the whole world's been explored and there's not a place to even look for secrets anymore and then the question is always what are things in the 21st century that are analogous to Christopher Columbus discovering the new world in you know 1492. what are the things that nobody knows but somebody might be able to figure out because those are the breakthroughs..." probably not the best example of a great breakthrough 'discovery'...certainly changed the course of history for the people already living there

Should have asked him if he knew about the marshmallow experiment…I would have liked to hear more about ANY tech industry/government relationships rather than just “it’s decoupled now”…thanks Rick! Great questions!
Great interview! If you like listening to Peter Thiel, which I do, you will find quite a bit of unique content in here I haven't heard in other interviews.
Thiel every so often throws a subtle jab at Denmark I always thought this was strange But now we’re apparently threatening to annex Greenland Very Straussian

Peter Thiel is an entrepreneur and investor. He is the co-founder and former CEO of PayPal, started in 1998, redefining the world of secure and fast e-commerce. Shortly thereafter, Thiel was the first outside investor in Facebook in 2004. Additionally, he co-founded Founders Fund, which has backed transformative companies like SpaceX and Airbnb, With a background in law and finance, Thiel has consistently championed innovation, whether through his venture capital firm, Thiel Capital, or the Thiel Fellowship, which provides $100,000 grants to young entrepreneurs who have a vision for a new product. Known for his contrarian thinking, Thiel is also the author of #1 New York Times bestselling book, Zero to One, which challenges conventional ideas about innovation and offers optimistic insight into future progress.
Hey guys for anybody hating on anybody else you should realize that when you hate someone it prevents you from hearing whatever good things they have to say and everybody has something good to say. Also, it’s super important to realize just how much power Peter Thiel has and so therefore the things that he has to say actually have meaning because they translate to what ends up getting done
@@paigefoster8396 I think it’s weird that you think that you have to have somebody care about you to think that they’re right. Being right has nothing to do whether or not somebody cares about you or not that’s the point I’m trying to make. Feelings should not be involved when it comes to right and wrong. Also, he’s a big on René Gerrard and René Gerard’s conclusion is that we are on the brink of apocalypse. And so if you were a billionaire and you honestly believe apocalypse was upon us, wouldn’t you want to build bunkers in the safest place possible? I have a feeling that any response from you will just be unintelligible or you’re not gonna respond at all. But I do hope that whatever your response is is at least rational and devoid of feeling.
@ of course! I think what Soros did with the exchange rate and the British bank back in 90s is very interesting. I follow Stan Drunkenmiller which is a Soros apprentice. And Gates is kind of boring but if he has thoughts on a topic, I am all ears. Don’t hate anyone, it will always misguide you!
Thiel & Musk are *redacted*. Thiel finds Curtis Yarvin interesting as a writer, and Yarvin is a straight-up buffoon. Dumb finance scammers who wish they were scientists & think they are smart. Envy & hatred define them better than any other vices or virtues
Rubin getting Rogan’ed shouldn’t come as a surprise to me. But here I am, disappointed as hell. Sure, Thiel is a brilliant mind. But the lack of pushback from Rubin about for profit universities, the student loan crisis and how it disproportionality affects Black women is egregious and lazy. He had an opportunity to ask the hard questions, but instead Rubin goes in all Doe Eyed. But hey…not my show. It’s Rubin’s world, and Boots Riley is right once again. Rubin is Q Anon Right Wing in a faux spiritual package. I will always value Rubin”s mind and creativity ethos. But yeah no homie….peter thiel???? this ain’t it.
I agree with you he could have asked Peter those questions... That is not Rick's style. He let's the person talk. Hopefully he opens up. Is this the first interview you listen to with Rick?
Hello. Fair point about Rubin’s interview style. I am in agreement there. This is not my first time listening to him. For me, listening to Pharell wax poetic about his creative process or Briana Wiest telling her own story is entirely different than listening to a billionaire talking about garnishing social security checks for unpaid student loan debt.
I’m not a MAGA Trumper, but I find myself genuinely invigorated by the shifting political and cultural landscape shaped by the influence of thinkers and builders like Peter Thiel, Palmer Luckey, Alex Karp, Joe Lonsdale, Vivek Ramaswamy, and, of course, Elon Musk. It’s difficult not to feel that we stand on the cusp of an American Renaissance-a revival that seems almost miraculous when contrasted with the trajectory we witnessed between 2015 and 2021. These individuals and their efforts offer a renewed sense of hope: that certain entrenched powers may not be as invincible as they once seemed, that new heroes might emerge to challenge the status quo, and that the ripple effects of this awakening could lead to a brighter, more prosperous future for us all.
Lmfao you bought that? It's just more of the same old rich getting richer schemes and you think they're looking out for you?!? I have a bridge to sell you
This is one of the best Theil interviews I've ever heard Tbh, and I've listened to a lot of them
Yeah, I feel like he is becoming more and more courageous/open about talking private topics. Elon effect.
Did you learn anything from them that you applied in your life?
Then you haven’t listened to enough

Few books have I considered life-changing so far, and Zero to One is one of them.
What was life changing about it?
Simple ideas. But against the zeitgeist. So had impact.
Rene Girard's books have also been life-changing. I started reading them after Thiel gushed about his beloved late teacher.
More transparency please..databroker..DARPA..ect... everyone knows some of the background...and is alert and knowledgeable...now is the time to talk about it.

Thank you both. I always love hearing your perspectives.
Ok, this was epic.
