This book by Ayn Rand came up once on Lex Fridman in the episodes we index. That mention was a genuine on-air recommendation, not just a passing reference. The people who brought it up: Yaron Brook. Every occurrence below links to the episode page and to the exact second it was said on YouTube.
“the virtue of selfishness capitalism the unknown ideal and philosophy who needs it and you know it's”— Yaron Brook
The guest here is Yaron Brook: Chairman of the Ayn Rand Institute, host of The Yaron Brook Show, and one of the world's best-known objectivist thinkers. He co-authored Free Market Revolution and Equal Is Unfair. Objectivist philosopher Yaron Brook makes the full case for Ayn Rand's reason, rational selfishness, and unbridled capitalism.
