Nice list Scott! Totally agree with your Rogan take. I've never listened to AOM, I think I'll give it a go soon.
I've been a big fan of Lex Fridman for a long time. That was a great episode with Professor Aldrete. I'm always amazed by how much hatred Lex gets online. If you've noticed this as well, why do you think that is? He just seems like a very positive, kind, intelligent person. I've never been able to figure it out.
Cool, thank you! My best guess is that he is a smart, kind, gentle guy, which is maybe rare these days so people don’t trust him and look for any reason to try to tear him down. 🤷♂️

I love AOM because they can do a whole range of content well. They do hands-on practical (like the butler episode I linked) and philosophical.
Here's one of my favorite philosophical episodes:
The Existential in Red Dead Redemption 2

AOM has 1000-plus "evergreen" episodes, so there's a ton of content to check out!
I wasn't aware Lex got online hate. Is he being accused of riding on Rogan and Musk's coattails? Do people think Lex is disingenuous?
As far as I can tell, he's a smart and gentle guy who interviews many interesting people. I don't know what else people expect from Lex.
