**Chamath Palihapitiya** (0:00)
Friedberg had this great story. There's a machine there. I've never seen this machine in my life, but he knew the machine.

**David Friedberg** (0:05)
There's a machine- It's the Coca-Cola freestyle machine.

**Chamath Palihapitiya** (0:08)
There's a machine that's right by the Navy mess where we had lunch and the situation room, which dispenses literally, I've never seen this before.

**Jason Calacanis** (0:16)
This is how out of touch you are.

**Chamath Palihapitiya** (0:17)
This is in every 7-Eleven, every movie theater, every McDonald's.

**Cyan Banister** (0:23)
Every movie theater, it's everywhere.

**Jason Calacanis** (0:25)
This is everywhere. You have not left.

**Chamath Palihapitiya** (0:28)
I was blown away by this machine. All the Coca-Cola's, all of the Gatorade.

**Cyan Banister** (0:32)
Chamath, let me ask you a question.

**David Friedberg** (0:35)
Chamath, let me ask you a question. How much is a dozen eggs? 399 How much?

**Jason Calacanis** (0:40)
Yeah, $399. She got it, $399, that's right.

**Chamath Palihapitiya** (0:43)
No, $3.99. Close.

**David Friedberg** (0:46)
$3.99.

**Jason Calacanis** (0:47)
It depends, it's pretty much double that in the Bay Area or Whole Foods, but yeah, it's half that.

**Chamath Palihapitiya** (0:50)
Just ask me how much milk is.

**David Friedberg** (0:52)
How much is milk?

**Chamath Palihapitiya** (0:54)
$8.99 to $11.99, depending on what you buy.

**David Friedberg** (0:56)
How much is a sweater, Chamath?

**Chamath Palihapitiya** (0:58)
My sweater is $4,000.

**Jason Calacanis** (1:01)
Alright, now we're back everybody, we're back.
All right, everybody. Welcome back to the number one podcast in the world, the All-In Podcast with me again, Chamath Palihapitiya, David Friedberg. And look at this. Look at this live from DC. Our bestie, David Sacks is back. He suited up in the administration and in the fifth bestie seat for the second time. My long-term bestie, Cyan Banister, hot on the trails of her new fund getting announced. Congratulations on that, Cyan.

**Cyan Banister** (1:51)
Thank you. Thank you. Excited to be back. And I'm so excited. I did not expect to see David. So like I'm over the moon. I'm like so excited.

**David Sacks** (2:00)
Well, I just popped in to reminisce about this trip that Chamath and Friedberg just did.

**Jason Calacanis** (2:07)
Absolutely.

**David Friedberg** (2:08)
Trip of a lifetime. Trip of a lifetime.

**David Sacks** (2:10)
We had all the besties of the White House. It was really incredible. Oh, wait. Jay Cal wasn't there?

**Jason Calacanis** (2:15)
Actually, it's interesting you say that. It's interesting. I checked my spam filters and my invite got stuck in the spam filters.

**David Sacks** (2:22)
Oh, okay.

**Jason Calacanis** (2:23)
Yeah, it was a little bit of a problem. You know, I had ski week this week, so I wouldn't have been able to make it anyway. But yeah, you know, I noticed there were some other invites stuck in my... A couple of other invites got stuck. Yeah, my Jeopardy invite. I see that you guys are all going to be in the next Jeopardy in the second round. My invite to Jeopardy somehow got lost. I have to talk to John, the CEO. So that was kind of a bummer.
Also, I missed my invite to the Bridgerton. You've got a cameo in Bridgerton there, I see, Friedberg. I'm not going to be on the Netflix show Bridgerton. I missed that.

**David Sacks** (3:00)
I think we're in a bit. Let's keep going, Jay.

**Jason Calacanis** (3:04)
And looks like my White Party invite here with Diddy. Oh, we'll just cut it in post. Oh, thank God. Oh, look, Epstein's Island. Oh, no, I'm sorry. That was Reid Hoffman's invite.

**David Friedberg** (3:15)
That was you.

**Jason Calacanis** (3:15)
I'm sorry to beep that out.

**David Friedberg** (3:16)
That was you, bro.

**David Sacks** (3:17)
Oh, yeah. You're on a roll here. Keep going.

**Jason Calacanis** (3:23)
All right, all right. Let's get back to it. Let's get back to it. It was a triumphant week for our best. There were little school girls giggling on the group chat. Oh, my God, I'm in the White House. Oh, my God. Look, I'm getting closer to power. What was it like, Chamath? Your dream has come true. You came here to America from Canada. You built all this from nothing, and you wound up at the White House. Give it to me.

**Chamath Palihapitiya** (3:46)
It was probably the most intense three days that we had. Nat and I were there to see the president, but obviously we were there to see Sacks as well. But there was a bunch of other things that happened. Myself, Friedberg, New Money Sonny was there. Our bestie, Elon Musk, obviously we dropped in with him. So to recap, on Sunday we got in, it was just like raining cats and dogs, nothing to say there. Then on Monday what happened was we basically had some meetings in the morning, and then David said, guys, let me just walk you around and just show you where I were.
