Это моя беседа с Владимиром Зеленским. Разговор вышел насыщенным и очень душевным — я старался хотя бы на йоту приблизить нас к миру.

Мы говорили вперемешку на трёх языках: английском, украинском и русском. Все три версии полностью озвучены, а также доступен оригинальный вариант (со смешанной речью). Таким образом, можно выбрать:
Аудио: английский, украинский, русский, оригинал (смешанный)
Субтитры: английский, украинский, русский

Here's my conversation with Volodymyr Zelenskyy. It was an intense and heartfelt conversation, my goal for which was to do my small part in pushing for peace.

We spoke in a mix of 3 languages: English, Ukrainian, and Russian. It's fully dubbed in each of those 3 languages. The original (mixed-language version) is available as well. So the options are:
- Audio: English, Ukrainian, Russian, Original (Mixed)
- Subtitles: English, Ukrainian, Russian

Above are link to clips & full episodes overdubbed into Russian. If you don't speak Russian, it's probably good for you not to click on it so that YouTube doesn't start thinking you speak Russian 🤣

But just FYI, many of the full episodes are starting to be dubbed into other languages (Spanish, Ukrainian, Russian, Hindi, etc...). I'll try to organize how to find those episodes soon. To switch between languages, click: Settings (Gear Icon) > Audio Track > Choose Language.

Я в Киеве, чтобы взять интервью у президента Зеленского, и попытаться внести свою небольшую лепту в установление мира.

На этом фото я вчера в Бабьем Яру, месте, где в 1941 году многие мои родственники были убиты нацистами. Их обещали «переселить», и приказали собраться с ценными вещами, но потом заставили лечь в этом овраге поверх тел других людей и расстреляли. Всего за 2 дня так было убито более 30 000 человек.

Я написал длинный пост в X (Твиттере), где подробнее рассказал о своем предыдущем посещении Украины в 2022 году, но к сожалению он превышает лимит символов в Телеграме. Пожалуйста, прочтите его здесь: https://x.com/lexfridman/status/1872175249199898935

Я благодарен за эту жизнь и за всех вас.

Счастливых праздников. Люблю вас всех ❤️

I'm in Kyiv to interview President Zelenskyy, trying to do my small part in pushing for peace.

This photo is of me visiting Babi Yar yesterday, a place where many in my family were slaughtered by Nazi forces in 1941. They were ordered to gather with valuables with the promise they'd be "resettled", and then forced to lay down in this ravine on top of other people's bodies and were shot. Over 30,000 people were slaughtered in this way in just 2 days.

I wrote a lengthy post on X adding more context about my previous visit to Ukraine in 2022 that exceeds the character limit of Telegram. Please read it there: https://x.com/lexfridman/status/1872175249199898935

I am grateful for this life and for all of you.

Happy Holidays. I love you all ❤️

Arrest of Pavel Durov is a disturbing attack on free speech and a threat not just to Telegram but to any online platform.

Governments should not engage in censorship. This is a blatant and deeply troubling overreach of power.

Here's my conversation with Ivanka Trump, a businesswoman, real estate developer, and former senior advisor to the President of the United States. We talk about politics, architecture, philosophy, fashion, music, parenting, martial arts, and much more.

I've gotten to know Ivanka well over the past 2 years. We first connected over our mutual love of reading and discussing books (for example by Marcus Aurelius, Joseph Campbell, Alan Watts, etc). She is a truly kind, compassionate, and thoughtful human being, and I'm honored to be able to call her a friend.

I had to return to US from the Middle East to collect my thoughts for a few weeks before possibly heading off to Eastern Europe for a few more tough conversations.

I didn't anticipate how challenging all this would be psychologically, but I'm working hard (reading, learning, thinking) and keeping my head up. Life is beautiful.

I'm traveling to Israel to speak to Benjamin Netanyahu, Yuval Noah Harari & others. I'll also speak to Mohammed El-Kurd, and host an Israel-Palestine debate. I'll travel anywhere, no matter how dangerous, if there's any chance it helps add to understanding and love in the world.

Hi everyone, I would like to fix a translation in the audio / subtitle that better captures what President Zelenskyy was saying. I will delete this post once we find a good translation. The President said:

Ukrainian:
І там, де ми бачили ризики, що щось може бути зброєю, ми били по руках всіх.

Russian:
И там, где мы видели риски, что что-то может случиться с оружием, мы били по рукам всех.

English:
And where we saw risks that something could be a weapon, we would slap everyone on the wrist.

"Ми били по руках всіх" was translated to "We would slap everyone on the wrist", which for some people implies a mild reprimand, so we want to better translate the intent of the statement that implies a strong punishment. Options:
1. We slapped everyone's hands
2. We hit everyone's hands
3. We beat everyone's hands
4. We cracked down on everyone
5. We cracked down hard on everyone
6. We firmly reprimanded everyone
7. We punished everyone

Let me know your thoughts. Again, I'll delete this post in a few minutes. I'm just working on fix subtitles and audio at this moment and need a second opinion.

Thanks.

В связи с предстоящими интервью на русском языке, давайте сделаем русский основным языком этого канала. Мы будем переводить на английский (а иногда на украинский по запросу).

Due to upcoming interviews, conducted in Russian language, let us switch this channel to Russian language as the primary language. We will translate to English (and sometimes Ukrainian if people ask for it).

Thanks for your feedback. We'll keep the channel in English but might sometimes provide translation in Russian. The reason for this is we will be publishing Russian language content more and more.

Here's my conversation with John Mearsheimer, one of the most influential and controversial thinkers in the world on the topics of power, war, peace, and international relations. We discuss Israel-Palestine, Russia-Ukraine, China, NATO, and the future of US as a superpower.

This episode will be challenging to some, as previous episodes have been to others. To emphasize what I say in the introduction: I will talk to everyone, on all sides, with compassion, with empathy, and with backbone. My goal is to do whatever small part I can to decrease the amount of suffering in the world by trying to reveal our common humanity. I will get attacked. I accept this. I love you all ❤️

I traveled to the West Bank and spoke with many Palestinians there from all walks of life. There was anger but there was hope. Most conversation were offline, but some were on camera. I'll publish those soon.

I will speak with everyone, and I will get attacked, derided, and slandered for it.

But I believe in the power of long-form, empathetic conversation to help discover our common humanity, including the good and the evil we are all capable of.

I know I'm underqualified and underskilled for these conversations, so I'll often fall short, as I do in all aspects of my life, but I'll work hard to improve, and will never ever give in to cynicism.
