No, I really don’t. Sometimes you see things in the same territory on Dwarkesh (which is very AI-focused) or Econtalk (which is shorter and less and less interesting to me lately). Rationally Speaking was wonderful but appears to be done. Hear This Idea is intermittent and often more narrowly focused. You get similar guests on podcasts like Jolly Swagman but the discussion is often at too low of a level, with worse questions asked. I have little hope of finding episodes like those with Hannah Ritchie, Christopher Brown,Andy Weber, or Glen Weyl anywhere else anytime soon. It’s actually a big loss in my life and (IMO) leaving many future potential EAs and AI people on the table.
