Post Description

I built this because I like long Lex interviews, but often don't have enough time to watch every episode.

I transcribed, mapped, and embedded each episode so you can find new conversations, see how ideas connect to each other, and learn about new topics.

I welcome feedback if this is useful before listening, especially as triage, or after listening as a reference or search tool.
