This topic (and much more) is covered in this excellent podcast.

I listen to a lot of joe rogans podcasts but Jordan Petersons first appearance was the only one I listened to twice. (The posted vid is his second appearance, and I'm only halfway through it). His speaking is so information dense and his clarity of thought is excellent, making this an absolute must hear.

And there is your problem. You listen to clowns like Joe Rogan.

He talks some rubbish but he's OPEN MINDED. Are you?

I listened to that one and I also need to listen again in front of the computer and pause to research Peterson's references.

Yes, and although most of his guests are raving lefties, and he also identifies as one, i like that hes willing to call out their shity behaviour when he sees it, and to have guests that he doesnt agree with.

MSM could learn a lot about non-partisanship from him, and thats probably a big reason why Rogans podcasts draw in a bigger audience than they do.

I'd say he doesn't identify as left or right, but like me he's a 'cherry picker'.

Yep just like you! Grin

it certainly doesnt give you any feel of being a credible or balanced article. It is pure conspiracy theory.

Lol!
