book / uses
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
“It actually reminds me, I'm reading one of my sons right now, the third book of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.”
book / recommends
Lessons From History
“Ooh, okay. So let me pull up my list because I got to pull up my Kindle for this. One is I'm reading right now. I got to admit, I like to make fun of Marc Andreessen a lot, but he recommended a book called The Ancient City, which is fascinating. And so I'm in the middle of that right now. I'm really enjoying it. Man's Search for Meaning is great. I'm just going through. What have I read recently? You know what's great? Area 51, An Uncensored History: The Top Secret Military Base. Not very Erudite, great book. And then I honestly think the one serious one I'll make a recommendation on is Lessons From History is one of my favorite books ever. I would really, really, really recommend it. It's a short read, but Lessons From History by Ariel Durant is probably the most approachable, non-obvious book I love.”

If the storytelling of Elon allows SpaceX, which by the way, I love, I think SpaceX is an awesome company, but if all of a sudden that actually can be worth $1.

You don't want to tell a dirty joke in the wrong room. But I think the thing about humor is there's this interesting subtlety to why it's so useful in social settings, which is one, it kind of shows you the ultimate mastery of a social situation.

It's not a huge podcast. It's big enough, but I actually think the thing that's been most surprising to me about it is that even though we don't really have growth strategies and we're not trying to blow it up and we don't get paid for it, it's like weirdly useful is what I would say.
