E84: Markets update, crypto collapse, Russia/Ukraine endgame, state of the podcast
Chamath, Calacanis, Friedberg, J. Cal, David Sacks
Following a month-long hiatus, the four partners of "The All-In Podcast" resolved a dispute over J. Cal's request for additional equity by signing a formal agreement that settled ownership terms while requiring J. Cal to forfeit introductory segments as compensation. The group then provided a critical macroeconomic analysis attributing current inflation to post-2008 excess liquidity and predicted an imminent recession driven by aggressive Federal Reserve rate hikes. Finally, the panel discussed severe corrections across equities, real estate, and crypto markets, condemned Western sanctions against Russia as a strategic failure, and projected Ron DeSantis to win the 2024 Republican nomination against a struggling Democratic ticket.

E80: Recession deep dive: VC psychology, macro risks, Tiger Global, predictions and more
Chamath, Calacanis, Friedberg, David Sacks
Panelists warn that approximately $35 trillion in global wealth has been erased, creating a recessionary environment driven by the Federal Reserve's quantitative tightening and synchronized collapses in real estate, consumer credit, and SaaS valuations. In response to freezing credit markets and strict new funding criteria, venture capital firms are selectively deploying capital into profitable companies while employees face the risk of worthless equity as valuation multiples compress. Despite the severe economic contraction and a potential market bottom yet to arrive, the crisis is framed as an opportunity for disciplined investors to acquire top talent and purge underperforming assets.

E54: Spread trading big tech, capital allocation, Zillow's misfire, Progressives suffer losses
Chamath, Calacanis, Friedberg, Jay Cal, David Sacks
Hosts analyze a Microsoft accessibility introduction that drew widespread criticism for perceived virtue signaling while simultaneously debating investment spreads that favor dominant platforms like Google and Microsoft against peers facing regulatory and economic headwinds. The discussion extends to divergent venture capital approaches, contrasting David Sacks' Bird IPO distribution with permanent capital models that reinvest gains, alongside a technical breakthrough where Chinese researchers convert carbon dioxide into starch with tenfold efficiency over photosynthesis. Finally, the episode connects these technological and financial shifts to a broader political realignment, noting how recent US election results reflect a voter rejection of policy extremism in favor of economic stability and moderate governance.
