I talked with Mark Cuban about why American healthcare is still such a mess. “Nobody wants to do it because it’s actual work,” he said. We talked about the AI advice he gives his kids, why billionaires are so unpopular and his ideas for reducing inequality. Out now! youtu.be/-iRW7ieIfwU?...

Instead of chasing outrage, he’s campaigning on audits, electoral reform, and singing “America the Beautiful.”
