This guy needs to be interviewed meticulously at the end of each month to make sure his descend into madness is fully documented

Whenever I listen to George, I get this strange urge to do more with my life. Grateful for such humans.

Fascinating conversation. I can't get past the sense that George has somehow retained the philosophical complexity of a rebellious 14 year old while blossoming as an entrepreneur. it's interesting.

Lex, honestly I hope your work lasts an eternity. These conversations you are putting out are like a Rosetta Stone or library of Alexandria for future historians to understand a major changing point in history.

My mom was George’s lunch aid in 2nd Grade. He would tell her how him and his dad would pick up old computers on rubbish night and fix them. Glen Rock loves you George ❤

Hotz is the definition of a mad scientist

I just can't get enough of these two, I love geo, he's like an idol to me. I don't understand half of the things that he says (techinical stuff) but I just love to listen to him. Lex please keep bringing him to the podcast.

Listening to George Hotz is like discovering a rare, soulful funk track from the '60s - it's a captivating blend of rhythm and intellect that keeps you hooked. Just like good old funk, his discourse never misses a beat! :D

Every time I feel like I know more than absolutely nothing, Lex puts out a new podcast with George Hotz

I could listen to George talk for hours and not get tired of it.

Legend of my childhood and legend of the future. True underdog. I hope George never gets too big so he will always stay focused on his goals

Another amazing podcast! These two together are worth more than the sum of of the parts. I need the "not all FLOPS are created equal" T-shirt!

I've never clicked a video so fast in my life. I've been begging for you to get him back on. Thanks Lex! You're the man!

Holy shit this man is QUICK witted! He comes up with the most complex and well thought out answers so quick I'm not even sure he's human.

Lex and George are both fascinating and these podcasts are always amazing. Time flies and you never know where you will end up.

Hotz is like if you made a 2 hour clip of all the biggest thoughts from all the Lex podcasts. My mind feels like it’s been assaulted and I love it.

"if there's two great evils in the world, it's centralization and complexity" ~ George Hotz

Hotz is a natural genius mixed with an entrepreneur mixed with a curious, fun loving, "why tf not" badass

I feel like Lex is asking questions he doesn't understand enough to talk intelligently about them, but covers well by generalizing Hotz's statements. Helps everyone understand, and forces George to keep to task. Love this, not throwing shades.
