Does not meet WP:GNG, available coverage is limited to non-independent interviews and mere-mentions. Most online results appear to be typos of the homophonous podcaster Lex Fridman _signed,Rosguill ^talk 21:06, 10 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: non-notable, as no sourcing found about this person. Yes he hosts a podcast [1], but the sources used are simply name drops. The Hollywood Reporter source simply mentions he brokered a deal, talking about another unrelated thing. Being mentioned, once, in a story about something different isn't notable.

That euronews.com source is in error: the podcaster who has AI-translated podcasts available on Spotify is Lex Fridman, not Lex Friedman (source). I know, it confused me too. Jfire (talk) 02:19, 11 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – Earwolf is a podcast interview. Verge and THR pieces are reliable, but passing mentions don't meet WP:GNG. TLA (talk) 02:42, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
