Thanks for having me on Lex! 😁 super fun to chat and hope to do it again someday! *Note: this podcast was recorded before my 3rd interview with SBF just in case some ppl wonder why we didn’t bring up the confession from Sam.
Coffee’s transformation from a smaller YouTube channel to a world class journalist in under 2 years is proof the real get rich quick scheme is finding what you’re passionate about and working hard. Great interview 👍
Lex and Coffeezilla in the same room?! What a treat!
its crazy how coffee went from exposing Instagram scams to being on Lex´s podcast exposing some of the biggest frauds of our time

Every time I listen to coffee I feel so much smarter for the next hour, then it wears off and im stupid again
Been watching Coffeezilla since the straw hat days, so glad he's finally getting the recognition he deserves.
Honestly... I can't tell you how much I appreciate somebody that's well spoken and articulate in any situation, whether it be on their own channel or to be a guest on somebody else's. It goes to show Coffee's the real thing. He isn't his channel edits, scripts, and such - he's the embodiment of his journalism and investigative work, and you can tell he takes this stuff seriously. This is an exceptionally well-done interview, and I'm absolutely impressed by Coffee. Like I needed another reason why he's the best at what he does.
Id never heard of coffeezilla before this interview. I've since spent the last month binging on Coffee's channel! Back again to listen to the interview with some new context on who Coffeezilla is and what he's done over the past few years. Great stuff!!
Coffeezilla is the the best scam investigative journalist. Coffee does so much great investigative work and has great production quality, plus he does it with such a witty sense of humor. His channel really ticks all the boxes.
