I’m the host of The Lunar Society Podcast, where I interview intellectuals, scientists, historians, economists, and founders about their big ideas (YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify).

Tyler Cowen (source): “Highly rated but still underrated!”

Real talk @dwarkesh_sp is on another level. The man does a ton of prep, asks fantastic questions, and is amazing at guiding the conversation real-time while still staying in the moment and asking off-the-cuff followups. I'm jealous!

Dwarkesh is my favorite interviewer because:
- he steers guests away from the "regurgitated book" rut
- he actually engages with their ideas, via quite thoughtful critiques
- I think he sometimes comes up with those on the fly, which is super impressive
Criminally underrated imo!

On great scientists and their miracle years. Side note, I believe none of the work of Einstein, Newton, Copernicus, Darwin, von Nuemann, or Gauss was peer reviewed. Has the method of science regressed? @dwarkesh_sp

Dwarkesh is one of the best young podcasters alive.

Best blog I discovered in 2022 so far

Dwarkesh Patel @dwarkesh_sp

To my taste, @dwarkesh_sp is probably the best podcaster there is right now. Both he and @tylercowen research their guests in depth and try to ask novel questions. But Dwarkesh is more serious about intellectual exploration (at the expense of cultural aspects)
