E4: Politicizing the pandemic, Police reform, Twitter vs Facebook with David Sacks & David Friedberg

All right, everybody. Welcome back to the All In Podcast. We're here with Chamath Palihapitiya, David Friedberg, and David Sacks. Our usual, usual foursome as we, uh, chop up the business news, uh, and what's going on. (smacks lips) And, uh, just as a point of order, the frequency of this show is, uh... Well, don't, don't ask-

As we feel like it.

As we feel like it, correct. Uh, so do not ask me to advertise on the podcast 'cause Chamath banned advertising, and do not ask me when the next one is. The next one is when Chamath decides he wants to go on a rant. Um, but what, how, how are you holding up, uh, Bestie C?

Uh, Bestie C is doing pretty well.

Yeah. Uh, uh, and the family, everything? A- ar- have you come out of quarantine in any way? This is the first question I have for people is, has your behavior changed now as we go into, I think what most people are calling phase two? Any change in what you're doing and the risk you're willing to take? Chamath.

Um, that's a really good question. Um, you know, I, I, I, I've kind of ventured out a little bit, um, but, uh, I just kind of put on a mask. The only place I don't wear a mask is when I walk around my house, um, just because it's, uh, you know, I live in the suburbs and so there's just so much space between people that you don't really run into anybody. Um, but if I have to go to Walgreens or CVS or whatever, I always bring a mask and gloves. Um, uh, so I've got, I ventured out a little bit, but, you know, nothing, nothing meaningful to be quite honest.

Um, and Sacks, uh, you're still out of the country in an undisclosed location. Uh, how are you feeling about what risks you're willing to take? Uh, you know, small groups of people, are you going out to a restaurant? Are you seeing other people? How, how do you look at the risk you're willing to take personally?

I've, I've adjusted my risk profile, I think, um, quite a bit. Um, so I mean, the, the learning over the past, uh, few months was just that relatively, that, that the fatality rate for, say, relatively healthy people under 50 without risk factors is, you know, 50 times lower than, um, say, you know, someone under, over 60 or someone who has risk factors. And so, um, I'm not being reckless, but, um, I'm willing to kind of re-engage in social behavior among, um, groups of friends. And, um, on the theory that, you know, all of my friends have been locked down. Um, I was, I was in total lockdown for two months, um, so were my friends. And so, you know-

I, I have several questions. The first is, um, uh-
