I've never seem Chamath look more pissed off! 😳

Watching this is an exercise in patience for so many reasons.

Chamath was graying by the minute

Wow 4 minutes and I'm already sick of this

Damn, you never did get back to the question of why Elon was not invited to the White House EV summit!

There should be a split screenshot of Chamath's facial expressions the entire time Pete is talking.

Yeah, let’s frame the problem in a way that pits Americans against Americans rather than calling out the government for being a monumental failure for the last 50 years.

We are watching in real time Chamath realizing that not only will he never donate to democrats again but to devote himself to them never getting elected again.

I think Chamath was put off when Pete didn't fold when Chamath tried to Chamath him.

This interview would have been a 10x with David Sacks.

“Chamath’s debate strategy: talk with absolute certainty until someone who actually knows what they’re talking about pushes back, then suddenly it’s time to pivot to a completely different topic. Chef’s kiss on the condescension though - really sells the ‘I’m smarter than government bureaucrats’ vibe. Too bad Pete actually showed up prepared and wouldn’t let him steamroll the conversation. Must be tough when you can’t just change the subject every time you’re losing.”

So refreshing to see Pete schooling Chamath on his BS. Glad the Pod finally had the balls to bring on a guest that challenges their group think.

When someone never admits there're wrong, you can never trust them.

You guys were really hard on Pete far more than your normal guess i.e. Elon Musk after this discussion I felt Pete handled himself very well and I have a renewed interest in seeing what he may do and possibly voting for him. Cymath was being a jerk

Trump on the pod- Chamath: how you planning for the weekend? Pete on the pod- Chamath: how do you quantify it? How? How? How?

can we get a Sacks and Friedberg podcast?

It’s interesting to watch Chamath actually engage with someone that he realizes in real-time is more intelligent than him.

Chamath being mad about not being able to influence Biden actually makes me think more highly of the previous admin

The victim mentality of these billionaires is insane. "Why do Democrats hate us?" These people are cosplaying as underdogs from the cabin of a private jet. Do not be fooled. Thank you, Pete!

Are these comments real? What are yall smoking? Pete was well spoken and addressed breadth of issues and comments.

“Love how Chamath pivots to a new question the second Pete starts dismantling his argument. Classic debate tactic when you know you’re losing ground. Pete clearly did his homework - you can’t just talk over someone who actually knows the policy details.”

Chamath can’t throw BS talking points at Pete. There were several times Pete challenged Chamath’s assumptions, and Chamath quickly pivoted to something else. Chamath’s words weren’t backed up with substance.

I’m in the minority, but I appreciate a reasonable conversation and at least an attempt at moving toward some form of consensus. Keep talking

Chamath: “As a legal immigrant (who’s a billionaire with drivers, a security team and direct connections with the White House), I feel safer and better under a Donald Trump presidency.”

Most rage bait podcast I've listened too in a long time.

DId anybody actually listen to this conversation or just go off of facial expressions? Pete had receipts the entire time and correct me if I'm wrong Charnath pivoted when he was asked what metrics he was using to say that the rich weren't getting the biggest breaks.

“Chamath’s usual confidence definitely met its match here. Pete came prepared and didn’t let any of the pushback rattle him. You can tell when someone actually knows their policy inside and out vs just talking points. This was a more balanced conversation than Chamath probably expected.”😂

Pete did great. Chamath came for blood, you can tell by his tone, demeanor and constantly cutting off Pete. The BBB moment where Pete schooled Chamath was great.

What a pleasure it is to see Pete completely dismantle every single paper-thin talking point these jokers have, all with a friendly smile and generosity of spirit

Chamath was not impressed with this guest

The attempt at gotchas really failed... Well done, Pete....I could never have your patience

Wtf are we doing.

I wasnt aware that Silicon Valley is filled with snowflakes

holy shit chamath saying the bbb isn't a handout to rich people is insane

I will give him credit for showing up and answering questions. Not many of them will do that on the other side.

Appreciate you had him on. My thoughts confirmed.

You should have people who substantively disagree on this podcast vs having it be an ideological echo chamber. It’s clear by the comments that people would prefer the echo chamber. Should have people disagree and explore each others arguments in good faith. Good episode.

6 minutes in and I'm already wanting to rip my ears off. Spin spin spin

Chamath spent the entire interview switching questions and moving goal posts 😂

Chamath is safer now because he is richer. Good job, Chamath, the SPAC king!

GodDAMN Pete brutalized chamath 😂

8 chargers built with $7B budget is still a win because we let the state wastes the money, and we had no idea how much is actually spent

Unfortunately didn't feel like much of a discussion. Chamath asked loaded, leading questions, pete answered in good faith and often changed the framing back to Cham, and then they just moved on. Wish their was more back and forth, but as everyone else pointed out it seemed clear Cham didn't want to be here

Guys like this explain Portland and los angelis amongst other cities like London and France, etc. Blows my mind

Looks like the comments disagree with me, but I like Pete. Im a moderate and he's the only Democrat I'd currently happily vote for

Pete was cooking. 😂. I appreciate him trying to explain some of these convoluted government process matters to a guy that clearly has his mind already made up and doesn’t really want to be informed in any way that is contrary to his preconceived understanding

I couldn't even make it 5 minutes! Wow just Wow!

I have never seen chamath appear to hate being present on an all in podcast before....

Pete made chamath look weak. Loved it.

One of the few times I don't listen to the whole podcast. Thanks Pete! 42 minutes.

Never got the Elon answer

The middle class is on life support in California

Love Mayor Pete. He'd make a great President

I laud the Besties for using this platform to ask individuals on all sides of an argument to come and have a dialogue. The ability to have a respectful if heated conversation is a crucial aspect of our representative Republic. But please don’t let someone come out and just espouse party lines, use past experience without outcomes (“uh, we used the 300M better”) without challenging them for specifics. The Silicon Valley playbook does not tolerate fools, lack of clarity or lack of data. What is terrifying is that this person will run for president and some number of our citizens will vote for him

It's so good to hear that people are actually having conversation about issues and not just smearing and arguing just for the sake of arguing. As a regular middle class worker, I am all for capitalism and I thank the billionaires for giving us regular folks a chance to have a better life. I am responsible with my money, saved and invested, and thanks to companies like TSLA, NVDA, PLTR, i can see a brighter future for me and my children. I voted yes for Elon to have that trillion dollar package. He deserves it. He has the brain, passion, and vision. God bless everyone and i am hoping for a better and safe future for every one.

Desperately needed DS to ask any follow up questions.

“The debt path we’re on is not sustainable” And his solution is to tax MORE not to spend LESS 🤦‍♂️

Appreciate Pete so much for his willingness to talk to most people even if it’s obvious that they are hoping to score points against him. He comes across so level headed

Well, this guy is a LEAD BALLOON.

I am here for the comments. And the didn’t disappoint.😅

Chamath asks about Biden’s censorship of social media, and Pete answers and then lists all the things Trump does to suppress free speech. Chamath clams up. He still wants those invites to the White House

I wish they asked Pete why he didn't collaborate with Tesla/Elon on the EV infrastructure program.

It's not a full scale military deployment in any city Pete.

Good conversation. Secretary Buttigieg is so measured and reasonable.

Great podcast! It was interesting to hear both sides, and I loved how respectful everyone was despite being in complete disagreement.

I’m a big MAGA supporter, but I think it’s good to hear from the other side. If they articulate their position it makes it easier to understand where they are coming from and allows better dialogue.

Pete is Great & easily the smartest politician around

How can Jason still not pronounce Mamdani

This was OUTSTANDING!! It is so refreshing to see people on opposite sides of political views have such a respectful conversation and I actually listened because of that level of respect. No insults, no name calling, no ridiculing…….. just listening to one another and taking turns asking questions and listening to answers, accepting them as part of the person’s views without being overbearing. I hope people can learn from all three of you and do better in a country where right now, the louder you scream, the more you berate someone, the more views you get. Thank you 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Flannel & a beard. He’s just like us! lol

We need more discussions like this in American politics. Good job All in for a good forum, and kudos for Pete for engaging.

The border was wide open.

Good episode. To me the thing that's disappointing about this video is that Buttigieg seems to come to the conversation with a point of view and a desire to discuss. Chamath looks objectively angry (all while in a ridiculous cardigan) and looking to win his point about statistical methods and moves on when there's pushback

5 minutes in and I feel like I need to go take a shower

If 75-90% of taxes already come from the wealthiest in the country, doesn’t it just make mathematical sense that when you propose a tax reduction, that the wealthiest in the country are going to benefit the most (in total dollars) from it. No Democrat seems to want to address the obvious common sense in the room. They just want to bash their opponents without addressing facts.

Pete absolutely obliterated every gotcha question from Chamath!!!

50% tax is just insane. I’ll never be a billionaire but that is absurd. $100k ends up being 60k before any sales tax. I just don’t know how we don’t talk more about cutting spending not taxing more. It’s absurd.

After 7 minutes I came here for the comments and was not disappointed!

I'm impressed with how Pete handled questions from two such narrow-minded people.

The censorship during COVID is an impossible question for Mayor Pete to answer. He made an LA swerve to avoid this embarrassing question.

This is a hard watch

It's crazy to see that Pete's world model is as simple as "Billionaires have money that we could be stealing, so it doesn't matter if our government programs reach their goals or how much we spend on them."

6 minutes in an he's insufferable. False narratives, Biden censorship was "trying to do the right thing" so it's not the same, woa.

Chamath looks like his mom dressed him up for Christmas morning at his aunt's house.

All I know is “ it doesn’t pencil”.

33:00 chamath had nothing

Guy in the first few mins labeled Trump as “an assault on lgbtq rights” and “a libertarians fever dream” … dude the left is so delusional and doesn’t realize how radical they were any return to normalcy is like a full on attack for them what a joke

Unwatchable.

As a hispanic immigrant who is a U.S. citizen, I feel safer under this presidency too. And no, I nore anyone in my family, have ever been approached by ICE.

I was literally about to jump out my skin when he referenced roughing up people that disagree with them/Trump. I literally lost my job because I challenged the left. Because I supported our president. Keep in mind I'm an ex-democrat.

I listened, glad to end this torture. Some of us remember how East Palastine was handled

Aint no way Sacks is going to be on this podcast lol.

12:30 uh have you heard of a Tesla supercharger?

What did i do to deserve this, i can’t believe this is real, must be a joke

Unbelievable...

Well done Pete, schooling with facts as always

Chamath again, i feel safe, i have not seen anything you are speaking off. That is baffling now to be able to watch this podcast and listen to this.

Cum was cutting Pete off everytime the message was being landed on Cum’s jaw 😂😂😂

Pete handled himself impressively in this confident, sharp, and composed. Meanwhile, Chamath’s expression was hard to read: somewhere between irritated and intensely focused, as if he were dissecting every word Pete said, ready to challenge it. But in the end, he ended up agreeing with him somewhat.

I have considered myself a moderate for a long time. Four minutes into this discussion and I can already tell that Pete doesn’t get it. The dem party has shifted too far on too many topics that drive voter sentiment. The only Dem leader that I can find that seems to publicly acknowledge this is Fetterman. The rest haven’t even begun to acknowledge the shortcomings of their party.

What a wack-a-doo

He said they gave the money to the states for the charging networks… does that mean they already gave the money to the states? Or it’s set aside to give to the states?

Dude literally said he saved his county money and instead of giving a tax break to his "wealthy residents" they simply found something else to spend it on. This is the fundamental problem with government that will never be solved. They do not view it as your money, they will always find something to spend it on. Every dollar "saved" is just money they could spend on some other pet project.

Is there a point to this interview?

Pete: "Chamath, please give me a metric that backs up your argument" Chamath: "Lets talk about Kamala Harris"

Chamath just on chat-gpt the whole time lol

I can’t continue with this interview… sorry I am out

Great interview gentlemen. Though I’d never vote for him, hats off to Pete for agreeing to come on the pod and have the discussion.

As long as the counties surrounding DC are among the top wealthiest in the USA, the central government is a defacto Mafia.

Chamath got cooked by someone that is not only more intelligent, but more confident.

Jason is panicking 😎

Pete bhai

Chamath can't get out of his own way in an interview. We don't care about you and your opinions Chamath. Lecture in to hear and learn from the guest, not the host.

Nice try All-In, but a galactic waste of time.

Unsubscriber who came back to see this. Glad they finally had someone on to counter their delusion

Billionaire oligarch Chamath SO UNCOMFORTABLE talking to someone smarter than him.

To listen is to learn, I hope all three took something away from this podcast. I like Pete and glad that he appeared on the show. Some great questions, and it is nice to see a respectful exchange between the guys. Pete seemed comfortable and was able to express himself with logic and justification. I don't think he is just a politician. I've been following him since he was mayor of South Bend and I'd vote for him.

Mayor Pete the health care from your party is called the Affordable Care Act (ACA) - the operative word in that acronym is AFFORDABLE - what is affordable in the ACA? just compare even with the runaway inflation the rate of inflation in the medical services.

Chamath looking out of his depth, so he asks Pete about his “identity”. 😂

What an expert prevaricator! Thx for exposing him, (again)!

pete handled these guys perfectly did not get crushed by their pressure and was calm and collective the whole time

Pete seems sensible, Chamath seems mad about that.

Pete violated them 😂

I am half way in and Pete has not mentioned an achievement the he can really take credit for.

Lol Chamath’s sweater looks like his political beliefs

Chamath: u think those bills were just handouts to the wealthy 🥺 pete: anyone can just open a window and check if they were it’s not a highly contested take at all i checked. they were.

Chamath looking like an Egyptian mummy 😂

Pete is great. What's with Cha's dagger eyes. Haha

What's Chamath's effective tax rate?

Actually mildly entertaining to see how motivated by self-interest Jason and Scamath are when they argue that the tax cuts didn't advantage the wealthiest and that income inequality is not a problem.

Chamath seems real concerned with waste and fraud... we should direct some of that same concern to his SPAC's like Desktop Metal

Is Chamath an AI Robot?

The part at the end where Pete suggests not to return organizational structures to what they were pre-trump is an acknowledgment that those structures deserved to be dismantled by the Trump admin in the first place. Lmao 😂

New title: Buttigieg gets torn a new one by legal American immigrant.

Really think of how you will be seen in history of facts and AI. Roger Ailes, Roger Stone, Trump, Epstein, Musk, Thiel, are written in history as evil.

That was the most painful 5 minute video I have ever listened to. No wonder they are out of power.

Can you guys ask same questions to republicans?

10:50 Did that go the way you thought it was gonna go, Chamath?.... Nope! (EV charging infrastructure discussion)

The combined net worth of all usa billionaires is about one sixth of the national debt. It's a spending problem not a tax receipts problem.

He kept saying he did so great as a small city mayor. He was in charge of US Transportation for 4 years. What did he achieve in that position?

Not even 30 seconds in Bootyjudge starts in with the gaslighting.

Glad that they invited Pete to this podcast. He is so sharp.. always nuanced, very articulate… big fan… alas, large section of our society can still not vote purely based on merit. He is capable of building bridges between right & left. How cool would that be… if we can again be a united country or atleast not full of hate & fear.

Excellent job 😊 Pete

I love Pete. I hate that the hosts looked pissed off as Pete was actively answering their questions 😭

I didn’t realize how much I needed to hear someone call out chamaths bad faith claims,equating covid “censorship” to what Trump is doing now? Jesus…. But ya this was a great video 👌

loved how Pete handled this interview!

I find the podcast useful and informative in spite of the fact that I generally also find it insular and self-satisfied. This was the best interview of Burragieg I've watched to date. You covered a wide range of topics and though some of the questions felt hostile to me, I believe that. Pete gave a courteous and well-reasoned answer in every case. that I have seen so far and in my opinion he gave a very good account of himself.

I love how he can balance out the topic of building EV chargers everywhere and also wanting to have Americans build them to keep the labor and workforce in-house.

“Thank you for bringing up that red herring so I can address that with truth” 😂😂😂

How did Pete make it through this whole interview without complimenting chamaths sweater! 😂

44:54 good one Pete

46:06 Good one Pete

Would love a face-to-face All In with Mayor Pete where after pleasant trash talk at start, Mayor Pete is forced to watch Elon explain the “Social Security Bank Shot” to Joe Rogan as seen here https://youtu.be/YcSIp8n-IXA?si=FKiamSTt6vMx7zqQ

Congratulations to Chamath for staying so calm and strong 💪 it was very very hard to do with this guest

Pete knew the assignment got an A even did extra credit. Boom! I no he could even show his work.

Chamath, great job trying to pin that guy down for an accurate answer. Especially on the racist mumbo jumbo. I admire all the success for everyone involved in the "All In:" podcast.

Thank the lord for Chamath. Jason is getting to be a wimp. He doesn't push back at all.

Whoever on the Allin team thought this would go well for them should be fired.Haha. Edited as I keep watching. OH MAN, poor Chamath. Editied again OOF Chamath! lol. Poor guy.

Literally every person I know who voted for trump loves what ice is doing. Jason throwing the word “most” in there😂

The biggest differences between secretary Duffy and mayor Pete are: - mayor Pete identified racist roads. - secretary Duffy upgrades ATC systems, increases number of ATC, etc.

There is no way for a tax cut to benefit those that don't pay much taxes. Any tax cut will always benefit the people that pay the most DOLLARS in taxes.

Question- “the federal government invented the internet” when did they do that? I have never head that!

It’s all about the money! I’m not fooled for a minute!

Don’t worry guys, the 1% billionaire feels safe as his taxes get cut. The common man should feel so much safer.

Good discussion. Fair points on both sides, makes me sad to see how little this seems to happen anymore. This discussion could have gone on for hours and I would've watched every minute.

Nice . Keep up the coverage of both sides.

"My time at transportation" bwahahahaha he never went to work.

So glad Pete came on here!🤩

Good episode

Politicians need to start being REAL with everyday Americans! Make the tough choices and get us back on track economically. Then we can handle the more difficult social issues. I think it is important to keep those segmented.

He’s right about who we’re giving the tax breaks to. It’s not incentivizing small business.

Awesome podcast ! Well done guys . Balance is king

Thank you.

Great discussion.

I would be very curious to see the unedited version of this.

Great pod!

great video even though it felt definitely aggressive, but it was nice to see outside bubble videos

Why no pushback from you two when he was talking about the FCC?

6:18 he does have a point with the SEC thing, but at the same time most people are saying that these companies are becoming monopoly like in the SEC should be stopping these roll ups

In u.k they send every citizen a record of how the taxes were spent

The ones who know the questions to ask, with knowledge of all, is the key to a shared reality.

As every day goes by Chamath’s transformation to Mr. Bean becomes more complete.

“Wasn’t gonna pencil” is not a phrase I would use on the campaign trail. Never heard that. Sounds like something one would hear in a corporate board room, country club, or Vegas.

Hi Chem, anyway your team can send this transcript to AI to get a true / false summary?

Awesome interview! Living in Sweden we would never get anything other than MSM washed sound bites from similar interviews.

Though I would never vote for this guy, I always appreciate a good conversation

It was genious to have this guy as a guest. Without Sacks and Freeberg it allowed him to reveal himself without an all out argument. Chamath tested him in a way that kept him talking. He even wants to come back! Good job.

Pete would have my vote and my money for his campaign if he decides to run in 2028. Excellent interview!

Pete is great. Props to this pod for bringing on someone from the left. I want more back and forth tho. Seems like jcal and Chamath just listened and let him say his points and moved on too quickly during contentious moments

People who question Buttigieg’s integrity or intellect have lost the plot entirely. I enjoyed the conversation. I’ll check out more episodes.

the push pull between chamath and Pete was so fun, I agreed with chamath at times, and Pete at times.

Petes camera setup so good it seems its AI

Lets move Nasa under me so we have one box on an org chart instead of two. Brilliant!

I’m 1 minute in and already I know Chamath is not happy to be there 😂.

“…Blockbuster television…”that’s a big part of the problem!

It is hard for a conversation to even take place when neither side can even agree on a similar reality of events. Each side sees reality through their own lens.

"I was out in the field " LOL

Best episode in months - more intelligent opposition please - it's what our country needs

Knowledge above all.

lol Jason said good job at the end 😂😂

perfect. thank you.

Excellent show with excellent questions a must watch. 👏 Great job

“That’s Jason” 😂😂😂
