Mark Cuban told the "All-In" podcast hosts that he used to talk to former President Donald Trump a lot. During Trump's 2016 campaign, Cuban said he tried to give some advice, but it went unheeded. Cuban said during the podcast episode that he was once enthusiastic about the prospect of an outsider running for office. Cuban told the podcast hosts that he would ask Trump about his campaign's ground game, and Cuban said Trump would brush off concerns: "Yeah, I got the evangelicals doing all that, I'm not worried about it." "I've said this many, many times: If it was a non-MAGA candidate, particularly if it was Joe Biden still, I'd vote Republican," he told the podcast hosts.

Then, he landed his first job in tech as a PC software salesperson at a company called Your Business Software. But in an old blog post, which Cuban recently shared on Twitter, the billionaire revealed he almost didn't land the consequential role. The interviewers weren't impressed, Cuban wrote, until he answered one question: "What do you do if a customer has a question about a software package and you don't know the answer?" "Ding ding ding… [the interviewer] just loved the answer." Cuban didn't know it was a trick question, so he answered it honestly, stumbling into the correct answer.
