Hey Lex, thanks for giving your platform to Ryan. The UFC doesn't highlight the talent this man has and it's very apparent he is very knowledgeable and skilled. I'm a huge fan of both of you, so thanks for giving us more Ryan.

You may want to check out the very first recorded interaction between these two i know of on another podcast of Lex called 'Take it Uneasy'. A very short episode that one but it may be the best podcast episode pound for pound so to speak i have listened to. Certainly up there. One of these episodes that i keep coming back to from time to time.

“Be respectful without trusting authority.” ♥️♥️
My son is on the spectrum and has similar quirks as Ryan. You look at him and he flinches uncontrollably, because he can't help it, but his mind NEVER stops working. Really cool to see similar views being so unique. Everytime I play a logical game with my son he sees something from an angle I could never imagine, it's amazing. Ryan puts this towards grappling and it is so revealing to the sport. We need such people, intellectual with an ability that others would find difficult to replicate really grows the sport.
This was great. Next you gotta get Firas Zahabi on! Or both of em together 🙏🏽💯
Ryan Hall, the definition of 'student of the game.' Valuable knowledge here. Thank you both.
You left us hanging for 4 years and now a double feature? Thank you LEX!!!

I love how you both are so high level thinkers and martial artists too. I think more people in martial arts should be this thoughtful. love to learn from you
Such a good move to drop this before Fight Night tonight. Ryan Hall is a heavy weight mind, and the academies don't even know he exists.

Anyone who's been doing BJJ for a long time knows who Ryan Hall is
Lex and Ryan together is like a perfect flow roll, so perfect you could probably only ever achieve it with yourself.
Loved the first podcast! Can’t wait to watch this one.
When Ryan said " but doesn't that give your life meaning." Yessir. I can listen.
Mooore of Ryan. Dude talks about breaking down complexities into basics, and applies lessons across many paradigms in practical terms. I guess that's what lex calls first principals thinking
That Galileo quote is one of the best things I've ever heard, incredibly insightful and so true. To think our whole education system, and so many parents miss this point, is crazy.
THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH FOR DOING THIS AGAIN!
One of your best podcasts. I just saw you had hall on before. Time to listen!
The first podcast with you guys is the reason I started BJJ, I know you didnt mean it like that but this podcast means alot. Thank you
Ryan Hall is a great guest. Smart, thoughtful, humble with a unique perspective on many things. He’s probably been the most avoided fighter in the UFC of late(he did finally get to fight @ 264,). He’s also a great bjj practitioner.
My favorite guru has returned! Thank you, guys, your conversations are so fascinating!
One of the best conversations I've heard this year.
Great interview Lex & Ryan! I felt total relation to both of you and your approaches toward humanity. Thoroughly enjoyed this one ✌🏼
Congratulations on one million subscribers, Lex!!! I know that it might be cliché to say, but you genuinely do inspire me a lot and if I am ever feeling lazy, I just think about how incredibly hard you work and your wise words, and that's enough to keep me going. I really do wish you the best of luck and I'm sure that there are many more millions to come! Once again: congratulations and thank you :)
I love this dude, maybe my favorite guest you’ve had on. Congrats on a mil!
Always a good time listening to Ryan, thx Lex!
This really couldn't have come a better time than now for me. Great work Lex.
love hearing ryan talk! love all your podcasts Lex!
I for one am thankful to Mr Hall for spreading his digital VD.
What a great interview and discussion. Thanks very much to both of you.
Lex, been watching your podcast since less than 100k followers. So amazing to see you break that 1M! Well deserved my friend!
The tie choke part of this conversation had me laughing. “...I’m in this situation all the time...there’s a reason why I’m still here...” it’s just a silly part to have bunched in with the rest of the podcast that makes me appreciate how multi faceted these episodes are

If Ryan hall had a podcast I would listen to every second.
Lex I am pretty impressed with this guy. He might not be a programmer but he understands systems.
Ryan and Lex are an amazing duo!
Haven't started listening/watching yet - but I was majorly stoked to see this one! Ryan Hall's one of my favorite fighters and one of the best minds in the martial arts..that's all..just wanted to express it. =P
This podcast was amazing you’re both so intelligent
Thank you so much for sharing , I just saw the second round with Ryan I clicked ASAP thanks....
I love to see a second pod with Ryan hall and also loved seeing him get scheduled for a new fight since this got posted!
Crazy I was just watching Ryan Hall highlights.
Less than 20 minutes in, and it's already a huge deep and think provoking podcast. Fascinating.

@Lex Fridman Hi Lex. I'm a huge fan. I'm French, and there's no one like you here. Someone who trains his mind and his body. And you play guitar too. I'm a guitar teacher, and you're a great inspiration, with your podcast, your dedication. Oh, and you're always a great guest on other's podcasts. Take care 👍
Thanks lex so happy when I see this
Love the Josh Waitzkin name drop. I would love to see him on the pod! :)
Thanks for the videos they are amazing
This was great! Thank you Lex & Ryan. I have to watch Pt. 1 lol
Hey Lex I hope you are well! Brilliant podcast and great questions. Please get Ryan back on!! The 2 with Ryan along with Danaher are my favourites.
As usual, great conversation!
OMG i've wanted this for so long
Lex you have become my favorite pod cast , joe is second. I really enjoy your thoughts on death and freewill. Keep up the great work brother.

Ryan's mind seems to be running slightly faster than the sentences that escape him. Great interview, I'm well motivated now. I love how you both attack your martial arts with such sophistication and discipline. Impressive 💪😏👍
Ryan hall said, "where are the great leaders." Both these men embody the temperament and self-awareness that's needed to become a great leader, our politicians are the exact opposite.

Ryan Hall seems like a cool Atheist to chat all the things bigger than us with. No he hasn't claimed it but I picked up on it in this podcast. 100%. I dig it
7:35 love the reference 😍😍
Yooo!!! So exited
Amazing podcast. Did you guys roll afterwards?
I need Ryan Hall to fight again soon.
