For three and a half hours, Lex Fridman interviews me about economics, the universe, and everything.

For three and a half hours, Lex Fridman interviews me about economics, the universe, and everything.

Lex is the master of the long-form interview, and this three-and-a-half-hour conversation deeply dived into my economics analysis.

It took me a while to appreciate that Lex asks the questions he wants to have answered as a form of self-education: the audience then gets to watch the learning process rather than having a performance designed for them.

Once I realized this, I think the conversation became easier to follow, but initially, it was very heavy (at one point, Lex said, "my head hurts").
