The Descent of Jordan Peterson (Video)
🕑 Added 2024-03-30 01:15:10 +0000 UTCHere's a video version of the recent Decoding episode.
"We examine a recent conversation between Jordan Peterson and the streamer Destiny (Steven Bonnell) and use the opportunity to reflect on Jordan's journey as a public intellectual and guru.
We consider how his stances have changed, whether he is more extreme now than when he emerged or if it is just his presentation style that has shifted. Along the way, we look at his demon-infested understanding of the COVID-19 vaccines, his climate change denialism, and address the unresolved question of the ages: Were the Nazis actually right-wing?"

Neither of you look anything like what I imagined! (That is not a criticism, just an observation.)

Apologies for the miss attribution and condolences for the Peterson. The fact that he is an ex-patriot is *stunning*.

Hey!!! I’m from Canada and I can tell you that the freakish Peterson now lives in the USA so don’t blame Canada for his ridiculous outfits!!

Getting a lot of content leads to gurudom. Just look at Huberman

Great episode, gents! Any plans on doing a Decoding Academia on Peterson's academic output?

When I first heard Chris I thought he was in his late 60’s and that Matt was about 35. Sorry. They do look the same age on video. Chris always refers to Matt as being much older but Matt can’t be more than 50. Chris is 41
Julie
Excellent boys, excellent!!!! Bye……

I'm so used to hearing the show that your voices don't match your appearance in my mind. When I first saw it I thought Matt was going to be Chris and vice versa! 😆 I like the video content though 👍

Really nice editing, I lost it at Gad Saad. JBP "descent" is even more evident when viewed in video form compared to listening to it on the podcast.
Marcus
yep gotcha. well you guys are doing incredible work.

Takes time to edit. Matt and I don’t always record video, and twice a month is a good startz
Marcus
How come this is the decided schedule? Is it not better to release a bit more often?
Christopher Kavanagh
We are just gonna release one or two things on YouTube a month. Slow and steady wins the race!
Marcus
hope this one blows up

This is a great episode, with what I guess will be very wide appeal. It deserves a lot of eyes and ears on it. Edit: There were 61 million people who died in 2023. Combined with the fact that 134 million babies were born in 2023, the world population increased by 73 million people in 2023 (134 million births - 61 million deaths = 73 million more people; a net increase of 0.91%). -- Source: ourworldindata.org 2nd Edit: There is clearly a tailor in Canada inadverse to cash for clunkers. 3ed Edit: Prof. Matt made an exceptional point that slipped my notice, that Scientism also includes holding research to impossibly high 'pure science' standards. It's also worth noting that when it's dodgy links between Lobster serotonin levels and mating behaviour and the ideal posture a human should adopt in social interactions: now *that's* science.
