## Resource

Welcome to The John Johnston Lounge, where tech, business, politics, and culture collide. Join host John Johnston (JJ) for a daily breakdown of some of the most powerful tech companies and people. JJ goes beyond the headlines to critique the unusual psychology, strategies, and politics of tech billionaires Elon Musk (Tesla and SpaceX), Sam Altman (OpenAI), Peter Thiel (Palantir), Mark Zuckerberg (Meta), and others. Whether it's an inflating AI bubble, a Silicon Valley coup, or the politics of the "Rogansphere," we cover it with critical depth, zero sycophancy, and a healthy dose of humor!
