think it’s absolutely sickening that this podcast, which I originally followed for insights into technology and startup culture, has revealed itself as a platform for bro fascism and technocratic authoritarianism. Instead of critically examining Doge and companies like Palantir which are actively complicit in surveillance, oppression, and even genocide, it is out here applauding them. This is how fascism creeps in, sanitized through TED Talk tones and startup worship, all in the name of efficiency. These people are not visionaries, they are just showing their complete lack of a moral compass. You are not just reporting on tech, you are co signing oppression. Disgusting.

Oh Marc, sweetie. You made a bad bet. It’s okay, it happens to all of us. You got so obsessed with being anti woke that you forgot to consider literally any other issue. As we all watch our retirements disappear as the Trump Slump sets in amidst a pointless trade way, as our European allies feel us turn away and start to build up their supplies in what will surely be a new age of nuclear weapon proliferation, it’s time to say it: Marc, honey, this was a terrible choice. It’s time to speak up, as an American, and admit this isn’t working. Don’t let your bruised ego override your common sense, we NEED you to speak up. Otherwise, this country will no longer be a place any of us will want to start a business.

it’s pretty obvious that this company has heavily invested in AI and Crypto and it’s looking to justify the ROI. AI can’t solve world peace or bring egg prices or prevent spread of bird flu in California diaries

One of my friends turned me onto your podcast couple weeks ago and now I feel like I’ve hit a gold mine so I’m gonna be mining your past shows and hopefully taking some of that new information to power my future.

I liked it but let me tell you this one thing blockchainexpore loves you

Consistently impactful topics. Provocative policy discussion distinguishing a health focus from disease focus where the former offers sustainable solutions.

Excellent podcast with very good details and in depth analysis of latest tech.

In depth technical reviews with frank Perspectives. Always learning something new

Used to enjoy these podcasts, but backing Trump makes the whole thing gross.

Used to be a great podcast for insights on innovation, holistic disruptive thinking, and actual innovation. After a number of departures 2 or so years ago, everything has gone sideways. Has gone from a must listen to actively being counter productive to listen to. Such a shame. And such a waste that they’ve gone so far off the rails.

This podcast is a must-listen for its insightful discussions at the crossroads of technology, business, and culture. Steph is a super engaging host, and they have a diverse range of industry expert guests that make complex topics accessible and fascinating for all.

Most of the advice doesn’t hold up after the easy money stopped.

This podcast is super informative and I’m very grateful for you guys sharing this information

I freaking love this podcast and all the people on this show. As soon a I started my first episode AI vs Crypto I’ve listened to nearly every episode dating back to 2018. Such a huge fan and one of the best podcast out there as far as staying ahead in business and in life!! Thank you to Mr Marc Andreeson and Mr Ben Horowitz for everything you and your team has taught me and I hope to work closely with you guys in the future!!! 👊🏼🦾📱🙏😎✅🤝👔🙌📚🌎🦉🪑🧠💯💪🏼

Enjoy many episodes and range of topics, speakers and perspectives shared. Good mix of tech , impact and eye on future! Also enjoy hear the founders on some shows

Excellent interview with Joon Park, thank you, your team at a16z is setting up a very important link between human behavior and generative AI, digital/interpretive behavioral modeling and other types of large language processing designs to close the gap between the vast complexity of neurobiological processes that leads to specific behavioral expressions and codifying and encapsulating that in a generative AI system, looking forward to more of those types of episodes that also address specific behavior such as violence and anger and aggression to highlight research teams around the world working on better understanding of how to intervene and treat aggressive behavior in order to create more peaceful individual and societal behavior.

Love the three part series on the AI revolution. Just listed to the 2nd part (third not out yet) and the conversation form folks doing the work like Mira (OpenAI) and others from Roblox and Anthropic is great. Deeper is better and a series let’s you do that better than a single podcast.

I really enjoy the content and will keep listening.

I’m amazed at how much I learn from this podcast and its breadth of subjects. I’m a long-time technologist from computing and aerospace domains, which are now so broad that it’s hard to wrap your mind around them. The recent “satellite economy” series particularly surprised me in the amount of depth brought to important aspect of the subject.

V informative

@erdnomad I’ve been listening to this podcast for several years and they’re a part of my weekly rotation. Being a designer, strategist, and want to be entrepreneur in the technology space, information is currency. I keep myself informed, I keep clients informed, and I keep my mind sharp with the help of the a16Z podcast.

As someone outside the tech industry but interested in developments, this podcast is a great window into what is happening. There is enough detail to develop understanding without knowing all the jargon. It helps me see into other industries and connect more dots.

Excellent podcast to keep up with technical innovation. I’m a podcast fanatic and this is one of my favorites. Have a listen you won’t regret it.

Excellent source of knowledge about what’s hot in VC and tech from the people who know best

Great analysis and breadth of coverage on topics relevant to tech trends. Great hosts and guests

One of my go-tos! Excellent work with relevant and emergent ideas in an approachable and digestible format

I just love listening to a16z podcasts! They are great to understand what’s happening in the world of technology and innovation.

Long time listener love all the great insights shared on this show

This has become my go to podcast while commuting to work.Allows me keep up with all the amazing stuff going on in the tech world. And becomes a great asset to initiate or just contribute to interesting conversations at work!

Look forward to every new episode

Great podcast that combine perspectives of business and technology! Give it a try if you want to explore how the two worlds meet.

I really loved the way they talk about latest tech and pack a lot of information in a short time. “Back to School Giveaway”

Long-time listener and reader of a16z’s content and podcasts. I especially love those with “new economy” undertones, like electric airplanes, batteries, or ecologically-minded founders. Keep going!

Love this podcast, it’s my go to for hearing about all things AI and how future tech will disrupt different industries. Keep up the great content!

It is an amazing podcast. Steph has a great voice and she is always asking great questions. The value of the episodes is great, specially for those exploring new technological trends.

As an investor, I’m always looking for innovative and interesting new ideas and this podcast really delivers. Steph Smith was previously on the My First Million’s podcast (also excellent) and her episodes there were always great, filled with obscure but interesting ideas and businesses. Back to school giveaway

Very leading edge insights for key trends in tech area. Good topics, challenging ideas and excellent guests

on point 10/10

Over the last few years, this podcast went from great, to somewhat bad, to great again. Keep up the strong reboot (great host, topic selection and lines of questioning)!

Topics are very informative to someone who is outside the field.

Love it!!

Insight from the guests are really good all around. Very clear the topics are heavily focused on what the firm is interested in but that’s part of why one should listen.

A16z podcast is great for neophytes and experts to learn about the most nascent technological developments across software, hardware, bio, and other fields. In terms, it host a large collective of experts, innovators, operators, and investors into the show and cultivates holistic perspectives of the dynamics in the technology ecosystem.

I love listening to this podcast, would recommend to everyone!

Nice to have this as a distinct tool to understand the perspectives from the A16Z team. I recommend this for anyone with an interest in tech.

Episode 736 of a16z, "A True Second Brain," offers invaluable insights into the evolving world of knowledge management and personal productivity tools. The discussion on the potential of second brain systems is thought-provoking, making it a must-listen for anyone seeking to enhance their digital workflows and information management strategies.

This podcast had taught me more about what is going on in technology than any other. From new and inventive topics to amazing guests, it has scratched my curiosity itch in the best of ways. Eloquently hosted, I find myself excited to learn new things with each episode! Majorly recommend it!!!

Interesting perspectives and smart guests. If you’re in the tech startup space you’ll get a lot out of this podcast. Only complaint is that sometimes the topics the pod chooses seem to focus too much on what the fund wants to invest in.

this podacats is just great. What I like about it the most is that they do not use termilogy thats too difficult ultimately feeding into the their whole public. Great work guys

This podcast feeds my curiosity and is always a jumping off point for further exploration.
