[@johngammon963]

This man is one of the most competent people in America.

[@luffebassen]

Takes advice from Jim cramer. Takes financial advice from his wife. Dont know about Gold or Silver. Is a financial professor. Only learned about the Brrrrrrrr machine 1 year ago. LOL 🤣🤣😂 What exactly has that guy got to offer??

[@malkeri2107]

Sounds like the next person you need to interview about MSTR is his wife😂

This guest is on another level. More interviews with men like him, please.

[@Marva123]

This was a Masterclass on high level boards. Thank you Tim and Tad.

[@MrAdamKan]

[@gikisTSB]

Really good insights, love Tad Smith’s overall appearance style and way of thinking. The choices he makes for his character looks kind of tell me he can make the right decisions, therefore his words might have some weight.

[@pacodelacroix]

Great interview Tim!! A guy with great experience that hates ties. By the way you were great!! I enjoy your tempo and the questions you bring to the table. Thks

[@RhettReisman]

This was a great interview - thanks for putting it together

[@diguito61]

That is a very inspiring interview - Tad is top notch guy!

[@peterkim9077]

He is simply the most keen individual I've ever seen.

[@Luke-cj7gz]

Great to hear Tad talk about Bitcoin! Nice work. Edit: not so great to hear Raoul Pal mentioned... Bitcoin only!

[@Josh-xe5vi]

Tapiero is a crypto guy too... he's posted on X about being excited about RWAs onchain and I asked how security/custody were going to be verified vs trusted and how those costs would be paid for and he had no answer... so they are no better than YT hypers

[@bitkillerjones.]

​@@Josh-xe5vi This was literally my curiosity as well. Oracle issues and the need for aml/kyc makes me confused about the use of a 'blockchain' vs a centralized server that is more efficient. Let alone about 12 other very deep computer science related issues. Whatever, I'm fine with people trying whatever they want. Will not be where I direct my funds anytime soon.

[@remo]

Excellent conversation. Tad is great!

[@Just21Million]

Tad is one fascinating dude. How have I never heard of him before? Great show! I saw Dante on Simply Bitcoin showed a clip of this show, so I had to find it and watch the whole thing 🧡

[@jbax778]

Very intelligent man, never heard of him before. great talk

[@matthewaskar9559]

Personally, I think Tad was an interesting interviewee that offered some insightful thoughts about the future for work and purpose. Besides that, I think you are a great guy that thinks thoroughly about what you say before you say it. However, your interviewing style needs improvement. This is the first one I’ve watched of yours, and I feel that you’re still in your shell. Tad’s energy was strong, and it seemed like you couldn’t match it in real time. His answers were at time convoluted and when he was finished, it would take you some time to figure out where to head next in the convo. This would then lead to simple questions or Tad taking the wheel. I think Tad was very nice and made the conversation flow but it seemed to be a one way drive and it was evident towards the end with his questions. Anyways, cheers for creating the episode. I think that you have potential, and hope to see your podcast grow!

[@Marva123]

Tim, I wish you would do more follow up questions with some of your guests. Tad left a lot on the table and I felt like he was leaving the door open for further questions. More indepth questioning and pushback sometimes would add to the interview.

[@petelarry9130]

I have been investing in stocks for longer than I would like to admit. Decades. This info about stock returns being roughly equal to inflation made my brain explode. I had never heard that before. I checked it out and it is absolutely true. Essentially investing in a diversified portfolio is simply the act of saving and putting you savings into an asset that keeps up with inflation. Why didn't Buffett ever mention that? Thank you Tad Smith & Tim.

[@Pocupy]

Great interview! 👍

[@steady-made]

Great interview. Thanks for the quality and topical range. Subscribed.

Twitter (X) has saved the country! Thank you, Elon. Great point, Tad.

[@GrumpyOldGuy777]

What a great interview! Very interesting guest. Learned a lot from him! Thanks!

[@chimpfight1578]

Would love to hear more in detail regarding board room hygiene / function. Would also love to hear stories (I’m sure he can’t name names) but the stories of crazy board rooms this guy has seen must be epic. Plus he talks well so would be a good listen.

[@sieglines]

You missed the legend Max Kaiser for the orange tie

[@brendonclark4977]

I wore a orange tie to a job interview! It was an awesome idea as the firm’s corporate colour was orange. Got the job!

[@mtgoxwall]

Very interesting interview - Subbed!

Very interesting smart guy.. don't like that he puts so much credibility with Raoul Pal after his scammy Crypto recommendations

[@Victor-herman1971]

Tim you on NOSTR?

[@jakenasz3428]

Tad seems like a futurist

[@Motivational-Mango]

Good job Toad Smith

[@scottdilbey1006]

I also like the stock

[@chuna-fish]

Kinda neat

[@Marva123]

Tim, you should start wearing a nice Swiss watch on your left hand during these interviews.

Why are you talking like that? Stop trying to be a Lex Friedman. Just be natural like your guest

[@charlesmiller6281]

After a while I noticed he's not really saying anything. Of course! Look at his resume! He's a salesman! What he seems mostly good at, selling himself. Certainly comes across well. But, content? Sorry. Near zero. Worse, he watched the whole Saylor presentation yet still doesn't get it. But, his wife likes it. They like to listen to him. Well, who doesn't? But, this guy? Not so much.

[@Joe99]

35 min in and yea, not much besides his resume

[@dc2778]

Disagree…thought that at first but especially his questions at the end back at the host…this is a sharp dude. He’s just careful with what he says…does hang on the Sotheby’s thing quite a bit….but he screams rich, educated etc…kinda annoying but good for him, I’m sure he’s worked very hard.
