00:00 Is there a person or a company in tech that isn't a household name yet but you think should be?
00:05 No, I think they're pretty obvious like the Sam Altman's of the world.
00:08 You know, I met him when he was 19 and had a failed company called Looped,
00:12 which I didn't think was going to make it and it didn't.
00:14 But, you know, you sort of see some people.
00:17 I'm really interested in those who are making investments in healthcare and climate change tech.
00:23 I think they're kind of really interesting and they have more of a mission-driven kind of thing going on.
00:28 And I kind of like, also there's lots of profits, FYI, so that's good too.
00:32 I just interestingly did, I don't know if he's going to be the one that does it, of course.
00:36 Reid Jobs, who's the son of Steve Jobs, has an investment company around healthcare.
00:41 I'm super interested in people like him that are doing that.
00:45 He's trying to make cancer non-lethal for obvious reasons, personal reasons and investment reasons.
00:50 And they're doing it through a combination of philanthropy and investment.
00:54 There's all these really interesting things happening in the health space and the climate space that I think are interesting.
01:01 Even these weight loss drugs, I think, is going to change a lot.
01:05 It's going to sort of kill the diabetic industrial complex and good riddance to that.
01:10 And so you just have to sort of look.
01:12 Psychedelics, I think, are interesting.
01:14 A lot more in healthcare and physical things like climate change tech.
