I for one am very glad Mr. Luckey is focusing on national security and not petroleum based food substitutes refined from human waste.

Petroleum based food that fights obesity sounds like great idea and fighting global problem..

My guess is it would cause some intestinal discomfort at the very least, if not out right severe diarrhea, bloating, or constipation. A lot of smart people are spending a lot of money trying to find cheap things that aren’t food that they can mix into our food to increase profit margins.

I really like Palmer Lucky. I know a lot of people dislike him because of his political contributions, but that's neither here nor there. He's clearly a smart, passionate, conservative (financially), and genuinely interesting person. I'm also a huge fan of Oculus and VR in general, so Mr. Lucky if you see this - thank you for your enormous contribution to an incredible medium and perhaps the future of computing.
This is hands-down the best interview you guys have done to date (I keep saying that, but really).
This podcast quickens my pulse

He absolutely is, but I personally work with ‘Viviana Marisa Coelho’’’ she covers things like investing, insurance, making sure retirement is well funded, going over tax benefits, ways to have a volatility buffer for investment risk. many things like that. Just take a look at her full name on the internet. She is well known so it shouldn't be hard to find her.
I believe this has been one of the best guest you guys have had on he has a very different but captivating outlook on life and I found myself agreeing with him more and more as the show went on definitely made me a follower of is his life’s journey

Thanks, MFM, you now turned me into a Palmer Lucky fan. What a gem of an episode!
Yes, definitely an all timer episode!
To everyone who has started or is thinking of starting their own business: *Believe in yourself and never give up.* If you can work 8 hours for someone else. You can work 2 hours for yourself.
I came across this channel recently and have binged more than 40 episodes. This one was, by far, the best.

I've noticed some of the migrantos coming in will stare down ppl who stand out. It's like they came from middle school and try to fit in and expect everybody else to conform with them. Until we get them up to speed, it will be dangerous to stand out in the coming years, hence becoming more obvious as to who the millionaires are lol ...peackocking / value signaling 101 ;)

I've watched a lot of your podcasts and I think this is the best episode! You have Palmer back on!
One of the best podcast I’ve seen, had to come back and finish it.
One of the best interviews/podcasts I've seen, nice! Love Palmer and I love the maker/tinkerer attitude.
Just listening to Palmer speak is awesome. Really impressed with him. First time hearing him.
I had never heard of this guy, but now I’m a huge fan! What a well rounded dude. I loved hearing his views on so many wide ranging topics.
Props for everything AND for giving the example by flying coach.
That was amazing... Huge fan of Luckey's, glad you had him on!
Palmer is easily highest iq guest on this podcast so far, fascinating.

One of the best episodes in awhile... this guy was super fascinating! Great job guys on getting him to open up on all those topics.
Podcast me please!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼THIS DUDE NEEDS A PODCAST ASAP!
This was a profitable way to spend time. Thank you.
by far the best podcast guest in a while!
You guys are asking great questions!
Palmer definitely brought the “no small boy” energy …. Until the very end 😂

Love the pod, sick episode. Well done Sam & Shaan & Producer Ben
Incredible interview. Palmer needs a podcast
Wow this was a fantastic interview
This was AMAZING! The boys crushed it and Palmer had that nerd energy relatability with a pinch of billi pizazz.
Great interview!
Love when the guests talk
This episode is 🐐
Such an amazing episode
Wonderful interview guys!
Amazing interview.
This. Was. Awesome!

Unreal pod!
1:31:30 absolutely. Modern air travel is amazing
This was my listen to while I going to sleep video. I didn’t got to sleep.
just love this dude. Great episode guys!
To Palmer@ 5:59, timing is EVERYTHING!
I love the fact that you comment on the video in the beginning after having done it.
Excellent episode
Fantastic episode!
Perhaps you should rename the podcast “My First Billion”
Awesome episode!
Inspirational. Thanks guys for what u do. Post production : 35-40 “The dude down the street let u play with his “ what ? I guess u meant it differently. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great pod
This is a banger. First time viewer here
Palmer is awesome. Loved his take on air travel at the end. Made you guys look kind of silly.
What a stud, glad we have Palmer as an American 🇺🇸
I did karate 😂. Great Episode 🔥
This dude definitely has a wild story, keeps me motivated to keep flipping iPhones 📲😈
Palmer should sue them out of oblivion. That NYT is complete trash
Insane achievement. Inspirational guy!
1:27:49 makes sense to fly Coach for work but not for Europe trips. He’s still out of touch due to his house, bank accounts etc. but definitely a great guy.
46:50 this is fascinating
5:01 into this and I already know I am going to like this. Glad I am not the only one that loathes when people say they aren't doing it for the money.
"We will buy anyone any tool that they need for their personal projects" That is the sickest benefit I have ever heard.
Crushed it. Great job guys. Palmer is amazing!
When is part 2???
Palmer Luckey is awesome! I love his sea stead idea! Ever since I was a kid I always said if I was ever in a position I would build homes on the water, and build a massive Coliseum for cool events. Kind of like Luca in Final Fantasy X. I have some other cool ideas, but Palmer is the man! 😄🌅
IRC, the OG of internet chat.
Banger episode

top 3 guest of all time (one of the GOATS)

Those VR headsets are getting smaller and smaller and they're 4k now, pretty soon VR will take over console gaming and maybe even the pc too 😯
this guy is wild. love it, such a odd ball and amazing in his own right.
Palmer is the real life incarnation of no smol boy stuff
Palmer is brilliant
Best guy and best episode ever.
Fascinating interview. The irony that an anti-establishment kid grows up to build defense tech for the military.
I just realized that he's got the same birthday as me but he's one year younger.
He's an incredible guy, but these interviewer are really asking the strangest questions out of nowhere and changing the subject everytime Lucky speaks something of high value.
When are we getting a 2nd interview with palmer sam and shuan please to do another episode
Love Lucky setting example!
The episode that’s needed….man, solid influx of thought provoking thought processes….
