Eric Jorgenson: The Anthology of Balaji

The Louis and Kyle Show

Eric Jorgenson is a writer, builder, and investor.

In 2020, Eric released the "Almanack of Naval Ravikant," a bestseller with over a million copies sold. This conversation discusses the "The Anthology of Balaji", Eric’s long awaited followup book (released today).

The Anthology distills the best ideas from futurist Balaji Srinivasan into three main sections, Technology, Truth, and Building the Future.

Our discussion covers:

* How to be "truth-literate"

* The most exciting opportunities for technological progress

* The impact Eric hopes this book will have on the world

* Challenges with modern media business models

* What we can all learn from Balaji

* And much more

Eric Jorgenson is a GP at Rolling Fun, an early-stage investment fund. In addition to writing books and investing in companies, Eric is on a quest to create the perfect sandwich.

Note from Louis: I could not put this book down. It was phenomenal. Please read it.
