My interview with Blake Lieberman, the Founder of 021 Capital. Blake's an up and coming VC who has quickly been making a name for himself. He's one of my favorite thinkers in the tech/startup/investing community. We cover all sorts of topics from Elon Musk at Tesla, the future of AI, Sam Altman and OpenAI, The Friend pendant and so much more! This interview was filmed 11/7/25 in Austin, Texas.
