Michael Moritz - Lessons From 40 Years of Investing and Writing - [Invest Like the Best, EP.491] (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Michael Moritz led Sequoia Capital for nearly two decades and backed some of the defining companies of the internet era. In his new memoir, Ausländer, he turns his attention to his own family, Jewish refugees who fled Nazi Germany and rebuilt their lives in Wales. We discuss the imprint his parents left on him, the method he used for decades of asking founders about their childhoods and the Time profile that ended his relationship with Steve Jobs. We also also cover Lee Iacocca, why Don Valentin
Walter Russell Mead - How America Keeps Winning - [Invest Like the Best, EP.490] (opens the original)
Read excerpt
My guest today is Walter Russell Mead. Walter is a columnist at the Wall Street Journal and the author of Special Providence and God and Gold, two of the best books written on American power.

Read excerpt
My guest today is Neil Movva, founder of Sail.

In that world, latency matters less and cost matters more, and Neil has built the whole company around driving the cost of a token as low as it can possibly go. What makes this conversation special is that it is one of the most

Read excerpt
My guest today is Ben Thompson, the founder and author of Stratechery. Ben is one of my favorite business thinkers and I love talking to him about everything happening in markets and technology. We go through every important company, including OpenAI, Nvidia, Intel, Apple, Microsoft, Google, and Amazon. We also discuss why he thinks it would be dangerous for the United States to win the AI race outright, what container shipping and the railroads of the 1870s tell us about the buildout, and why t
