In this episode, we sit down with our good friend, the one and only David Beatriz, in his home studio for an insightful conversation about American politics, tech, and the importance of community. We first met Dave at SXSW last March and immediately connected over his sharp mind and kind heart. This guy is not just a brilliant tech genius (he went to MIT at 14!), but also an incredible storyteller and thoughtful friend.
During our time in Orlando (which aligned with) Trump’s inauguration, we became fascinated with the political landscape in the U.S., and who better to discuss it with than Dave? He shares his perspectives on the current political climate, what it’s really like living in the U.S. right now, and how his journey from coding on his junior high school’s first computer to becoming a leading tech expert shaped his view of the world.
We dive into topics like:
- How Dave's human-centric values guide his daily interactions
- The importance of belonging and community in today’s world
- His experience growing up as a young tech prodigy
- The state of American politics and what it’s like to navigate it as someone deeply embedded in the tech world
This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the intersection of politics, tech, and human connection. Dave is one of the smartest and most genuine people we know, and we’re sure you’ll love him just as much as we do.
