RSE*TWhen?When will any of you stand up & tell the truth, stop kissing butt and call out what you know is the most self-destructive tariff policy which will wreck the global economy and achieve nothing sustainable. Stay silent & you will lose any credibility you still have. The people who count aren’t going to forget your silence and cowardice when you know better. Aren’t you going to lose the very thing that enabled you to become wealthy? All that money just made you tone deaf and cringe worthy on a podcast without enough coverage to call out lies and ill conceived plans that every economist already knows will not work and so do you.

Jimmy HaslamSad SacksGreat freewheeling discussion. I’m a lifelong Republican, and voted for Trump, and want to find a good reason for these tariffs. But Klein and Summers made Sacks look foolish. Sacks was asked specific questions and simply couldn’t respond. He’s smart but uninformed, and has convinced that the tariffs are simply emotional tools to try and turn back time lost long ago. What not turn back into a farming powerhouse?

shetuck1TariffsI listened, hoping to hear a discussion. Instead, I heard boys yelling over each other. What self righteous propaganda by one of the guys. He refused to give any meaningful metrics —but at least one was given at the end by someone else. (Sorry I couldn’t keep track of names, as this was the first time listening to the podcast). This podcast was recommended by a friend who said I would find an equal balance of opinions and interesting debate. What a disappointment this episode was. I’ll give it one more chance.

ajzzz444Why Sacks?Used to be a good podcast. But honestly, this podcast is difficult to listen to when Sacks is on. Deflections and anecdote based arguments. It’s clear that he’s just backing his own position in the administration versus presenting any critical and educated arguments.
-
zzzzzzzzzzz21When Chamath can leave?An awesome podcast that’s completely ruined by Chamath. Every time he speaks I skip. Jason, Sacks and Friedberg are brilliant guys.
-
QrrvjkgxhjlkvgEase up on SacksHe’s grumpy cause he’s the only one smart enough to realize you’ve all been duped. And Chamath is very much in need of some tax decisioning that goes in his favor.

KdmpkBunch of billionaire chest pumpingGreat insights until they started bending the knee to the orange buffoon. None of them are for the working class or 95% of the America. They are all a bunch of rich phonies who are looking to become even richer while the rest of the Americans suffer for the next 4 years. Can’t wait to hear how they deflect all of Trump’s heinous acts and psycho behaviors. Still only covers how DEI killed America and Tariffs. Why don’t you cover all the eff ups that are happening? Where are you bros for when pentagon is screwing things up? No opinions on ICE detaining US citizens? You seemed have talked all things when Biden was making mistakes.

Eric J WynnThe View for MenI gave this show a 4 star review previously. Now, this show has utterly collapsed into fighting, arguing, my ideas are better than yours. I now find this show revolting. This is a free graduate course in the Economics of life. The whole world evolves around money whether you want it too or not, and these individuals delve into the various aspects of how our lives are so interconnected (political, science, military, business) that decisions in one field of study can now effect everyone else at some point (the butterfly effect). Bring pen and paper and when you hear terms, ideas, and concepts you do not understand (you will) write them down and Wikipedia them later. Think of it as an test of your intellectual well being. Can you keep up with Billionaires? Or, do you need some more education? Think of this podcast akin to a physical workout but for the brain. You will leave each podcast a better informed person than when you arrived. I cannot stress this podcast enough to those who are interested in economics and current events. Excellent production quality to boot!l

Sammi-sosaRecent political discussionsI disagree with what people are saying. Political conversations are HARD. Sometimes they get heated. You see the realness of that on the show. I love when there is conflict. I do agree, sacks is overly defensive of trump, which does bring the podcast down, but I still love having him on here as he gives great insight into what’s actually going on in the White House.
-
I’mdone67Trump InfomercialSacks and Chamath are incapable or willing to criticize any actions of the current administration, which really destroys their credibility in my eyes. I really enjoyed this podcast up until Trump took office. Now it seems more like a Trump infomercial. I think I’m done after this episode. Sacks wouldn’t even give an objective metric that we could measure the success of the tariffs. At least Chamath answered that question.
-
Hatethisapp27390493They’ve ruined a great podSachs runs roughshod over guests he doesn’t politically align with, while the rest of the group has merged into his MAGA-bro agenda, turning what was an insightful podcast into a Fox News circus of with hidden agendas being shouted over each other

ScenicJasonPropaganda Jet Set, Trash and 1 StarThe All-In Podcast, once a promising dive into tech, markets, and big ideas, has plummeted into a one-star caricature of its former self as of March 2, 2025. Hosted by Chamath Palihapitiya, Jason Calacanis, David Sacks, and David Friedberg, this show used to thrive on raw, unfiltered debates and insider insights that felt fresh and provocative. What drew listeners in—the messy, real-time clash of sharp minds—has been replaced by a slog of predictable propaganda that’s as stale as it is insufferable. The “Besties” now sound more like a clique of self-important echo-chamber evangelists than the independent thinkers they once were. Chamath’s contrarian edge has morphed into preachy sermonizing, often laced with thinly veiled self-interest. Jason’s hustle-charged takes have devolved into shameless hype-man rants that feel like they’re auditioning for a VC check. Sacks, who used to cut through the noise, now leans hard into partisan talking points that reek of agenda-driven drivel. And Friedberg, once the group’s data-driven voice of reason, seems content to nod along or toss out tepid science-y soundbites that add nothing. What used to make All-In interesting—genuine disagreement, unscripted tangents, and a willingness to challenge each other—has been systematically replaced by propaganda. The hosts don’t wrestle with ideas anymore; they peddle them, often with a smugness that assumes listeners are too dumb to notice the shift. The podcast’s charm was its authenticity, but that’s long gone. Now it’s just four rich guys patting each other on the back while regurgitating whatever serves their collective brand. If you want insight, look elsewhere—this is a propaganda mill masquerading as a conversation. Proof that wealth often has more to do with dumb luck than brains. One star, and that’s generous.

djrobsnellLost their wayChamath is clueless as far as how organizations run and is unable to separate his feelings with reality when saying Steve Kerr deserves no credit for the Warriors’ 4 titles… Spineless Sacks is ruining America and doesn’t care what’s true or right, he’s only interested in himself… this pod used to be a great way to stay in tune with current events but is now a propaganda state-run media outlet
-
BabsSmittyDebate is AliveI’m hungry for different points of view and vigorous debate. This podcast brings it. Thank you! Thank you!
-
An insignificant citizenUsed to be a good showThis show used to be genuinely insightful, offering useful perspectives on markets and investing — areas where they actually had some expertise. But as the elections approached, they took a sharp turn. Instead of focusing on what they knew, they began pushing political narratives, promoting their crypto assets, and aligning themselves with the idea of electing Trump, alongside their leader, Mr. Musk. It’s disappointing to see what was once a valuable resource devolve into little more than government propaganda and a vehicle for personal financial agendas.
-
lzhu10Agree with all the recent commentsHave always liked this podcast as it felt well balanced with liberal vs. conservative views and was always interesting for me to hear the other side. That being said, Sacks is rude, unnecessarily aggressive, and refuses to answer or provide direct responses. He is bringing down the pod. Can’t you just use his new role as an excuse for him coming off?
-
Whilst WanderlustDunning-Kruger EffectIt’d get 0 stars if David (Mr. Kremlin Talking Points) Sacks was still on.

adsfy901Great Pod but Dodged the Bog StuffOne of the best podcasts out there. It’s amazing to get perspective on tech from such intelligent and articulate industry insiders in such a candid format! However, the guys seem to dodge discussing big political moments (like anything controversial Trump does), likely to avoid the ire of Trump since Sacks is now his crypto czar. I would say if you’re not going to tackle the big moments in politics maybe don’t discuss politics at all and just stick to tech. I also find many of their opinions biased and slanted on things like the utility of crypto since they are likely invested in the success of a particular market, so you have to take much of their positions on certain markets or tech developments with a grain of salt. I also wish J Cal would press his views more since he seems to be the only center / center-left voice on the show. He seems reluctant to do that at times. Overall, though, I look forward to this pod more than any other. EDIT: Chamath and Sacks way out of their element arguing tariffs with Summers and Ezra. Stick to tech, guys! That’s when this podcast was fun! That said, I commend the pod for bringing alternative voices on the show. Best discussion / argument on tariffs on the web, rivaled perhaps only by Ross Douthat’s excellent interview with Oren Cass. Bottom line for most Americans is there is no clear and realizable goal to DJT’s broad tariff approach. No clear way to measure success or whether the outcome would be a net positive as compared to the free market approach of the last 80 plus years. Rather, the tariff approach is sowing confusion among businessss and retirees alike. So much so that it’s having a massive impact on the stock market and NET (net!!) capital investment in the US. ALSO, why does Chamath deserve a call back from ANY White House? Do I get one, too?

Vicari0uslyGreat show!I was introduced to this show by an uber passenger a few months ago and haven’t missed a ep, I love the strong debates and the different views and insights into some of the most successful people on the planet. I don’t agree with everything you guys say, but that’s kinda the point of your pod, right? Your most recent pod tho with Larry and Ezra was the absolute worst, neither of them brought anything of substance to the conversation. I hope you never bring them on again, it was the first one I couldn’t finish.
-
SdstudentsanUsed to be goodI used to learn a lot about business and tech. Recent political episode unlistenable. Chamath and David don’t listen, talk over their intelligent guests and it is just a bunch of yelling. So disappointed to see what this has become. Unsubscribed.
-
stwgrDone with the podThis used to be a great podcast. A bunch of billionaires with insight into tech and business of silicon valley, occasional some geopolitics/politics. They've now HEAVILY leaned into being mouthpieces for the Trump administration and the bias is clear. I'm honestly shocked at some of their takes. At best they are horribly out of touch, at worst they're knowingly pushing propaganda.
-
Katherine21419Love this podcast despite childish behaviorWhile I love this podcast still I find that David Sacks has found himself acting like a child. I realize he works for the new admin but he, like others, care more about making the current president happy instead of actually using logic to respond to questions. While we are all entitled to our opinions I felt like in the last episode I was listening to him act like my two year old nephew argue with his 3 year old sister which deters me from wanting to listen to this in the future if I am going to have yelling in my ear all episode…
-
JJ1990J8Talking over the guestsYou guys need a mute button for David Sacks. He’s hard to listen to during a normal episode, but he becomes intolerable when he continues to speak all over the guests. Get rid of Sacks and I would come back.
-
Liam HessionIf you like shouting debates…To me it’s way too contentious and unproductive when they are shouting over each other/guests so much, gotta unsubscube
-
Pickerel LakeGreat to hear opposing views, wish they would let each other finish.Way too tiring to listen to all the interrupting (not just the host who needs to bring SOME order to the talking). Hard to judge all the arguing.
-
T from OhioPodcast is great- reviews are cringeI find something different to learn each week and appreciate the knowledge and passion these gentlemen bring. Keep doing what you’re doing fellas and don’t be deterred by the whiny reviews.
-
Jjff25Last episodeLike the podcast but the last episode was hands down the worst episode to date. Constantly talking over each other doesn’t work.
-
Rivyriv2020Sacks is ruining this podcastThese are very intelligent men discussing relevant topics in tech and the world. I can engage with vastly different political opinions from people who can articulate their opinions in a thoughtful manner. However, David Sacks is given a pass to never answer a single direct question, change the topic when he can’t answer a difficult question or absolutely berate a guests if he disagrees and smother all semblance of a conversation. It is so obvious and sad and it is making this podcast harder and harder to listen to.
-
mich!@v3lliUsed to Be GoodThe episodes recorded before Trump took office in January were genuinely engaging. Since then, however, the hosts have shifted into being mouthpieces for the current administration. Their commentary now feels rigid and constrained, seemingly crafted to avoid contradicting Trump on any issue.
-
SIR Captain PlanetBring back the original 4Otherwise it’s not going to be around for much longer
-
WrongSaint96bootlickersgreat source of propaganda re: our dear leader. how are those SPACs doing chamath?

Perma LinkThank you thank youI’ve spent the last 3 to 4 years getting to know these men on their podcast. I’ve grown to love and cherish all their perspectives that all usually different. I trust them. And am so happy to see Sacks joining the team Now I feel I might try to get on board with AI , maybe crypto knowing who over seeing. Freeberg had already sold me on the science. All these gentlemen know how to make things make sense! I like the first say thank you for bringing on all the candidates that you could so far and for especially getting my choice candidate on this evening I live and work in a city that is being ran by crime and by immigrants and I’m pretty close to Chicago, but not in that state at any rate what we are noticing is that we have had many people fly over and stay, our jobs are being taken away from us. We are blue-collar workers and we depend upon our wages because we didn’t have the opportunity to become well educated but we do work hard for what we do and we make good money doing it, however, I’ve expressed and have been expressed by many people of whom I work with, of how they are moving over to the Republican side because they are concerned about all the jobs that we are losing and more and more immigrants are moving in on us, taking over, and even running us out of the area, and workforce and are taking over in our positions and running us out, we’ve had many that have left not by choice, and I am one that is still remaining. It’s upsetting to see our jobs, going to people from other countries because somehow they’re able to get through the system. I thank you guys for what you have done and I think you for expressing all concerns both big and small and venture cap, and for Friedberg for turning be back to only using glass. I agree we need more high tech skilled workers to move our country to the future. Please tells Ezra no one give a @#$& about it book. Larry is out of touch. There would not be a housing shortage if you wonder send green card, workers who are taking blue collar jobs away. It’s a shame the schools are overwhelmed with workers, and will hire no one with merit. Thanks Mike Brawn for letting them to continue to ruin Indiana. Indiana needs a Desanto, not a Braun
-
AlexKCookWhat happened to David Sacks?Amazing how much of a MAGA sellout David Sacks has become. He can’t see the corruption happening within the Trump administration when it’s right in front of his face. On the most recent episode there were some clear questions posed to him about objectives of the Trump administration and Saks got defensive and emotional. Unfortunately, when you become emotionally one-sided you suddenly lose the ability to see the truth.
-
independent listener!ListenerUgh! David Sacks bullying anger
-
SiftergleanSacks is ruining your showDavid Sacks has become an unbearable argumentative babyman who is there only to mouth the litany of Trumpian rants. Everyone else can partake in a rational give-take argument but him. Makes it hard to keep listening to the show. Please get ride of that guy.
-
JS_244UnsubscribeThis used to be a thoughtful podcast with sharp takes on business, investing and geopolitics. Now it’s basically a fan club for power-hungry tech bros patting each other on the back. Riveting stuff—if you’re into unfiltered cronyism and self-congratulation.
-
_gcodeThe BestThese gentlemen get it and bring it weekly. Big shout out to Sachs 😊
-
kcw444Keeps it interestingI listen sporadically depending on the topics but really liked the episode with Ezra and Larry. The cohosts and their guests are smart guys with unique perspectives that make for a compelling and sometimes heated debate. Jason does a great job moderating and balancing the discussion.
-
NicknameBLCPodcast has changed for the worseUsed to be nice hearing different perspectives, but Saks screams and yells over everyone if anyone disagrees with him. It’s hard to listen to. He can’t even answer a question directly. Chamath mostly has thoughtful discussions, but then has moments like Saks. They don’t seem to have respect for their guests. God complexes.
-
T gambogiGOATI listen to a lot of podcasts, but yours includes arguments on both sides of the issue and that’s why I think your podcast is the Greatest of All Time
-
Jtrot50Blow hard faux intellectualsTitle
-
Mae4booksAppreciate the debateI consistently learn more than I knew I needed to know from varied voices in vc, politics, economics and the market. Listening to the Larry Summers episode and I feel I have a front row seat to the tension between traditional and new economic thinking. I love the direct comms & salty exchanges but more than that, these convos need to happen to chart a smarter path for the US.
-
Independentthinker26Stop being hostile to guests that aren’t Trump sycophantsI’m done listening after witnessing the decay into intellectual dishonesty & mud slinging when backed into a corner. Not classy or respectful. Sorry, used to really enjoy this pod.
-
jobbinkMore guests like LS and EK!When he actually has to debate knowledgeable policy opponents, sacks comes across as the defensive windbag he is, with no willingness to commit to any outcomes. Finally a real debate.
-
podguyfanscifiOvertalkThe host too often over talks his podcast partners and guests. It’s lost its shine.
-
MSCSmurferNot a tech podcastThe show is now a political earned advertisement show, not a technology, market analysis podcast.
-
wbit4Bent the kneeUsed to be interesting and now they sound like a bunch of clowns contorting their brains to justify the so called multi-dimensional chess that Trump is playing. They unintentionally make the case for why the uber wealthy should be taxed at much higher rates and have their power and influence severely checked. They are smug, contrarian for the sake of trying to sound smart, and have sold their souls to cash in on the Trump grift. Tim Miller at the Bulwark has a great critique of how they’ve exposed themselves as amoral power whores. Screw these guys and the damage they’re doing to our country for their own selfish gain.
-
UnkybunkyComplete sell outsUsed to be a must listen show with intellectually honest debate. Now it’s just a bunch of right wing grift, very depressing
-
Remorseful ListenerTerribleUsed to listen to this pod religiously. Used to provide great perspectives across multiple topics. Has turned into an insufferable MAGA and Donald Trump promotion from Sacks and Chamath. So lame, disappointing and gross. Stopped listening and won’t ever go back.
-
widphotoVague definitionsFirst time listener. What the heck is a “friendly state” context missing there. Further clarification is necessary regarding SSA card rights and citizenship rights. “Woke lunatics” seems extreme, as you invite a coalition of political elements to solve problems. I am not a fan of woke, these issues a should be intrinsically personal and not political, much like religion. I am a fan of immigrants, and by and large we are all immigrants, throwing out the baby with the water is not a solution. Again more specificity in your choice of language is vague and off putting.
