Disclaimer: Please don’t take the statements made in these interviews too literally. It’s well known that Josh/VC liked to spread misinformation and misdirection about themselves, and interviews and written correspondence were the perfect medium for that. As these interviews progress over time, some of their falsehoods are acknowledged and admitted, while in the same breath, more deception is created elsewhere. This is not to say that everything said in these texts is untrue, but rather that the reader should maintain a healthy skepticism of the more outlandish and implausible claims made here, as much of this writing is fantastical, and designed largely to cultivate mystique, as well as for the author’s own personal amusement.
