Chardonnyay!Conflicted About HostsI'm conflicted about the hosts and sad that I can't stand listening to the pod anymore. I've been a superfan of JCal since the beginning of the ThisWeekIn podcast network (over 14 years) and his discussions a decade ago about founders and startups has directly contributed to my success founding and running my own startup. I even liked listening to Chamath's early discussions about growth and strategy in Web 2.0. and I utilize some of his tactics. The MAGA content is obviously self-serving given their link and friendship with Musk and their strong dislike of Lina Khan. However, given JCal's working-class background in Brooklyn and the fact that he is a girl dad, I wonder why they are all publically aligning themselves with MAGA considering that in 10 years and historically, they will be on the wrong side of history promoting an agenda that they can never take back. Were they all like this in private while seeming publicly progressive during the growth of Web 2.0, or has money changed them all? I just want JCal to go back to the days when he was kicking it with Lon and talking to founders working on cool technology. He seems like a genuinely cool person, and when he interviewed Chamath during the FB days Chamath seemed like a smart guy who made it in America. Also The MAGA anti-immigrant rhetoric and today's announcement that the Trump administration is stopping all new student visa interviews seems like the All In Pod besties should not support - after all, Freidberg, Chamath, and Sacks are all . . . immigrants. Anyhow, I wish they would all go back to talking about startups, that was a cool golden time in their media careers.

antti2009Love this showTheir perspective and their circles of influence are so different than mine.. I look forward to each show. They are open to banter, they are open to disagree and they can back it up with data. It appears that they are all wealthy, but they remember where they came from, which is quite unusual.

Ask the questionLolThe umbrella of “austerity measures”generally covers both spending cuts AND tax increases. To go on and on about the catastrophe of increased spending and then skip over the tax cuts as one of the few good things about the bill is EXACTLY how we got here. Took suuuch a long time to even mention not decreasing taxes, and then they just blew by it.

MIT Kris23DownhillThese guys used to be solid and be somewhat unbiased. Recently it’s all biased viewpoints on every political topic. Also, much less market and economy topics.

BillypilgrimsDownhillThe interview with Larry summers and Ezra Klein was ridiculous. No respect for the guests or meaningful debate. They should be embarrassed. I’m done with this podcast

Mwiz2000Trump mouth piecesShow used to be great. Now they are deep in Trump world finding any creative way to justify anything he says or does. It’s quite bizarre borderline cringy - It’s the opposite of Trump Derangement Syndrome.

awolracingOutstanding source of informationNice to have a platform for unfiltered thought. One of the best, of the best podcasts. This show is bringing long-form discussions with some of the western hemisphere’s most important people. OUTSTANDING work gentlemen! If you’re not listening to this show, you’re probably uninformed.

jagster814Better before it went full politicalI’ve listened to nearly every episode for quite some time and I have to say, the further along the political spectrum this show gets the more derisive and unlistenable it is. I can understand different view points. I can understand the pokes at the other side as there are several legitimate issues. But the backbending that most of the hosts do to support the whole trump agenda is comical. And even when the minority (in the political leaning sense) host brings up a valid counterpoint it’s shot down and made fun of. This particular show likely shaped the minds of several 20 and 30 something men on the previous election cycle, mine to some degree included. I thought I could stand behind the intellectual integrity of the show at the time, but I don’t think it’s possible anymore. Unsubscribing.

ryano144Stick to the political commentary we’re all looking forAfter a whole year of basking in the profound global insights of these political experts, I felt so enlightened. It always helped me trust their insights when they kicked things off by reminding us just how vital, beloved, and utterly loaded they are. Then, they would help me understand the actual genius of what may have seemed to be an unforced error by our government. But then, the audacity! This week, they dared to sully their brilliant discourse with something as pedestrian as public, private, and venture investing. What makes these paragons of political wisdom think their genius extends to something as trivial as tech firm investing? They should leave the tech and venture capital talks to true Silicon Valley insiders. ;)

TheScipioAfricanusThe Decline and Fall of the All-In PodI’ve been listening to this podcast for about 2 years now and it’s perceptibly declined in quality. Viewpoints are inconsistent , debates aren’t well thought out anymore, and all of the hosts, probably excepting JCal, have completely lost their touch, sincerity, and integrity to their positions Some specific examples: - chamath’s precipitous descent into self-flagellation and accepting whatever the administration says and does because he on the “inside” now. - sacks - well, he was always outspoken and often completely misguided and deceptive at worst especially on Ukraine. - friedberg - supporting environmental destruction in the name of energy growth rather than sticking to his guns on nuclear, solar, and other sources of clean energy to buttress growth. - the embarrassing debates with Larry summers was probably the best example of the decline of this pod. On one hand you had EK and LS debating like mature adults and on the other hand you had sacks screaming like a petulant child and chamath reading off of chatGPT like it’s the Bible of economic truth. On the latest episode, the voice of reason turned out to be Ben Shapiro. Amongst all these capital allocators he seemed to have the most keen insights on economics and growth. And he’s just a political commentator. Do better or your audience will continue declining. 4.1 now. Probably 3.1 in a month.

saltshockGrift BrosThis is a podcast by grifters who talk about how they got rich by grifting and their love for grifter in chief. You will learn nothing as it’s completely disconnected from reality.
-
MarcosreviewforthisappToo PoliticalShow needs to go back to discussing interesting tech/investment topics instead of the polarizing political takes.
-
Michael92116InterestingThe inside baseball portions of VC and capital raise is pretty interesting. These guys have access to economic machinations that I will likely never have. The political context is a master class in rhetoric. Not journalism but surely spun as fact.

Randy-FriesWhat happened?The show was great when it focused on business. Now it’s just a Trump propaganda machine. If you want to know how some of the richest people in the world manipulate politics to favor them and no one else, this show is for you.

Balance_$&ScienceWhat about Science, Justice, and EnvironmentI have been listening to for the last several weeks and I love the Ezra and Summer discuss. It is great to hear both sides together. I have to be honest and say it was disappointing to see how David didn’t show up in that discussion but Chamath saved him. Also, to play down the optics of influence that Trump is seeking is also disappointing! I am actually writing to understand and maybe have a discussion beyond just economics and speaks to the areas of what is happening with our Justice system, you talk about technology science but what about medical science… you discuss the impact of COVID and materials but NiH and University grants for science are being impacted. Also you briefly talked about environment with Doug but from an economic perspective what aspects of global warming etc… Anyway the show is better when it is balanced with both sides!

MJPennsBillionaire boot lickersI first started listening to this about 3 years ago. I never really liked these guys because they are detached billionaire types who mostly got lucky with having a particular talent at just the right time in our history. But I appreciated some of their takes and inside knowledge of the tech industry so I continued to listen. Then in the run up to the election and after I stopped. These guys became shills to push MAGA and Trump propaganda. Probably because they are in the bubble of their own hype and the MAGA crowd loves them for it. And now Sacks and Chamath are basically bathing in the grift that Trump brought to Washington. So they have no incentive to be critical of the regime. Anyway, at this point I do not recommend. Not if you want to be intellectually honest with yourself.

soobinatorYet another MAGA podThis pod turned into right wing Trump mouth piece show. The people on the podcast think their listeners are stupid.

Todd - ZimSuch a great podcast!Never in my short life have I known who served in Presidents cabinets and what they were doing or responsible for and or cared about it. The interviews Friedberg and Chamath have done are truly exceptional. The individuals are absolutely incredible. Thank you for these interviews. I also love the broad coverage with the All In team about all things tech, investing, markets, politics, current events, and the debates that give differing points of view. Thank you for your service! Definitely one of my favorite podcasts.

RSE*TBeyond disappointingReminds one of everything that’s wrong with the world. Fast forward through the first 5 minutes of self-congratulatory delusion and see for yourself if it’s worth your time. May become better once they mature into adult men with some balls.

CHUCKEL999Was a good show.I’m not sure how anyone who listened to the show from the beginning would enjoy it now. It’s intellectually shallow..if not dishonest. One person twists himself in knots to justify his stake in the current government. Another works for the White House, so like every other person there, he must toe the line. Quite boring to listen to now. Even the technology discussions are a bit tainted because now I know they are fully capable of talking their books instead of providing pure analysis. This is their megaphone, so I guess they’re entitled to do all of the above.

Daily PodderUsed to Be Great, Now Just a One-Sided Echo ChamberI used to find the All-In Podcast thought-provoking and informative, but it’s completely lost its way—mainly due to David Sacks. His constant, one-sided rants praising everything the Trump administration does while relentlessly bashing Biden have become repetitive and exhausting. He offers little nuance and often derails the conversation with long-winded commentary that feels more like a campaign speech than analysis. JCal, as the moderator, doesn’t do enough to ensure balanced, fact-based discussions. The show avoids addressing any of the more controversial or problematic actions taken by Trump in the last 100 days, and even their guest choices increasingly lean right, reinforcing the bias rather than challenging it. The original format worked because it offered diverse perspectives and focused more on tech, business, and policy than partisan politics. I keep hoping they’ll course-correct, but at this point, I cringe every time Sacks starts talking. Disappointing to see a once-compelling show become so one-note.

jdhollimanOut With DavidIt’s wild how dumb David Sacks is. Embarrassingly low IQ. We need to bring shame back to the world.

Amanda grantThey sold their souls for $So sad, how do you look in the mirror? How do you sleep at night? A bunch of sell outs. Makes me very sad to listen to these guys.
-
Ris6258DisappointedI respect the accomplishments and intellectual capital on this podcast, but as another reviewer said they have lost their souls. I also think they’ve been dishonest leading up to the 2024 election. The whole lead up was like a “pitch the VC”session for who will do our bidding and make us a lot of money. Sad. Especially disappointed in Chamath.
-
Gordian KnotReminderLet me start off by saying that this podcast always starts off by proclaiming to be the number one podcast in the world. I get the joke. It’s not. Some people might think it is. It just points to the arrogance of the insensitivity of these text Giants. I listen to it just to remind myself to be kind and generous to people. It always motivates me too try harder, in order to compensate, were these unbelievably wealthy, spoiled child man. No, they don’t ever have a woman on the panel. Keep up the good work.
-
BrizzleBotA right wing podcast masquerading as fair and balancedClearly this is a right wing podcast. Never any pushback on fox/trump talking points.
-
NdoggageNerds with moneyIt’s like a podcast of what happens when 5 kids who got beat up in high school made a bunch of money and started a podcast. Tech bro d-bags - listen to the pod, join the circle jerk.

AgentKateMy absolute #1Informative, brilliant, entertaining, super hip. Thank you Besties and Guests for taking your valuable time to help me to better understand what I consider important. Thank you also for the special events. Attending one would be an unbelievable vacation.

hahdidusbsoagskdTechno-fascists podOh good a pod by a bunch of self important techno-fascists who got rich off of public sector investments and now want to destroy the American public.

Paula S teacherEzra Klein / Larry Summers episodeDo your homework. Your conclusions about DOGE, that we just need to hear more communication about it are plain wrong. The problem is that everything g that’sDOGE been communicated has been proven to be inaccurate at best and flat out wrong (lies ?) at worst. So far any of “savings” are not only insignificant but not even a result of DOGE efforts. Many are programs that are where the money has already been spent. The meagre savings from workforce cuts to meat inspectors, forest service personnel etc…are they worth what will emerge? Your fan boy take on Musk is blinding you to the simple reality. You talk about trade deficits as if that’s the golden ring…you didn’t even engage Summer’s astute remark about his hai g a trade deficit with his grocery store. There was no debate here. Summers and Klein tried but you all just steamrolled over them changing the subject and misrepresenting Klein’s book. Geesh! I’m Interested in hearing intelligent pushback on left of center views but this isn’t it.

ShwolfeDecent podcastEnjoy the topics & guests on your show. When one of you disagrees with Sacks, he often raises his voice, doesn’t respond to the point, and is waiting for his turn to speak not hearing others & critically thinking through the argument. Find this to be a turn off regardless of the topic. Enjoy the rest of you & your thoughtful responses & comments.

Out for themselvesBessentNo pushback and checks

jeanoc🔥Sacks was on fire! And love listening to Chamath!

DanielNYC77Sacks’ CredibilityThere are many smart thoughts in this podcast series. What irritates me, however, is the lack of knowledge of Russia and Ukraine. I wish the speakers could stick to their guns rather than playing super-confident know-it-alls. It’s painful to listen to them when they leave their home turfs. This seems particularly true for David Sacks. He undermines his own credibility in areas where he does know a lot. Overall, the podcast series puts on display why it’s important to have a diverse set of specialists in government, not just a homogeneous group of oligarchs. Make sure this remains only one of many sources of information for you.
-
007MarisaSorkin HostThank you for exposing how vacuous Andrew Ross Sorkin is. He had no retort for Sacks and zero creativity for outro. He views the world through a personality-driven lens rather than economics or realpolitik. Is Dealbook still sponsored by Goldman Sachs?

TomB1927All Trump Propaganda nowWas the unique take of the rich investor now just explaining and defending anything Trump talks about.

sarahgoldyTrump sycophantsFully biased opinion-based show acting like Trump has hidden genius that only they can see Soooo cringe. Terrible
