Note that I’m happy for the answer to be “none” or “all of them.”
Just thinking that some are likely to be geared more towards a general audience with less of a background - thanks!

- His conversation with Tyler Cowen skips talking points which are more familiar to EAs, I'm finding that interesting
- I thought his conversation with Ezra was interesting too - Ezra both has good criticisms but also managed to frame Will's argument's really succinctly (e.g. I loved the title of the podcast "Three sentences that could change the world" or something)
I liked this one with 80k.
I'm going to post a Twitter thread about this tomorrow, with some selected extracts. The best three I've heard are:
- Ezra Klein
- Dwarkesh Patel
- Tyler Cowen
I posted all three to The Valmy.
80k great as always! Though I wish, of all episodes, this one was longer
I liked the Tim Ferriss episode (scroll down for a long list of relevant links). There's a YouTube video version that segments the episode with chapter headings, allowing you to skip any parts that don't interest you.
Sure, the title of the Ezra ep was cool. But I actually didn't think it was that good of an ep - I felt like when Ezra asked 'tough' questions, Will didn't really engage with them in a direct enough way, and as a result a lot of my non-EA friends have told me that they felt Will didn't have good responses to the questions. I don't think it was that useful an ep to listen to as an EA - its mostly stuff in the book and things you'd likely have heard from Will or others in the community before.
