Listening to Lex Fridman interview Balaji, it is clear how good he is at what he does. If you think he is boring or makes dumb comments, you should try running a podcast and interviewing smart, articulate and opinionated guests. It's much harder than it appears.
I don't think it's requisite to start up a whole podcast if you find someone else's interview style boring or not for you.
I would love to see Lex moderate political debates. F it, let them last 5h+, the insights we'll gain will be amazing.
The quality of your questions is the quality of your life (or interview in this case). Lex asks some simple and very powerful questions that everyone has always wondered but is often too embarrassed to ask themselves.
