The following is a conversation with Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon and Blue Origin. This is his first time doing a conversation of this kind and of this length. And as he told me, it felt like we could have easily talked for many more hours, and I'm sure we will. And now a quick few second mention of each sponsor. Check them out in the description.

And to me, Notion does that better than any tool I've used so far. Notion AI can now give you instant answers to your questions using information from across your wiki, projects, docs, and meeting notes. Try Notion AI for free when you go to notion.com.
