Popular American podcaster Lex Fridman announced on Sunday that he will host a podcast with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the end of February. This will be Fridman’s first visit to India, and he expressed excitement about exploring the country’s rich culture and meeting its people.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Fridman wrote, “I will be doing a podcast with Narendra Modi (@narendramodi), Prime Minister of India, at the end of February. I’ve never been to India, so I’m excited to finally visit and experience many facets of its vibrant, historic culture and its amazing people as fully as I can.”

Lex Fridman, a computer scientist and podcaster, has been hosting the Lex Fridman Podcast since 2018, interviewing influential personalities from science, technology, politics, and beyond. Some of his notable guests include Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Donald Trump, Mark Zuckerberg, and Volodymyr Zelenskyy. His YouTube channel has over 4.5 million subscribers.

Fridman gained attention in 2019 when Tesla CEO Elon Musk praised his MIT study on driver focus in Tesla’s semi-autonomous systems. However, the study faced criticism from AI experts due to a lack of peer review.

This will be Prime Minister Modi’s second podcast appearance. His first was on People by WTF, hosted by Zerodha co-founder Nikhil Kamath. In the two-hour discussion, PM Modi shared stories from his early life, leadership lessons, and India’s advancements in technology. He also recalled a personal anecdote about Chinese President Xi Jinping’s interest in visiting Modi’s hometown, Vadnagar, in 2014.
