  • Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down in person with legendary actor Dennis Quaid. They discuss his upcoming film in which he portrays the titular Ronald Reagan, what the former president understood about Marxism, how he dealt with the Soviet cold war, how an actor learns to leave the character after each take, the responsibility to portray flaws as well virtues, existing as an Independent in Hollywood, and the state of the industry as well as the country today.
    Dennis William Quaid is an American actor and gospel singer. He is known for his starring roles in Breaking Away (1979), The Right Stuff (1983), The Big Easy (1986), Innerspace (1987), Great Balls of Fire! (1989), Dragonheart (1996), The Parent Trap (1998), Frequency (2000), The Rookie (2002), The Day After Tomorrow (2004), In Good Company (2004), Flight of the Phoenix (2004), Yours, Mine & Ours (2005), and Vantage Point (2008). He received a Golden Globe Award nomination for his role in Far from Heaven (2002). Quaid has appeared in over a hundred and twenty feature films, and The Guardian named him one of the best actors never to have received an Academy Award nomination.

      @@AmyMaris they aren't. But good movies seem to be very far and few in-between. The issue with the ESG is that even if a publisher wants to make the movie, if the company doesn't have a good ESG score then they will have their own score lowered by doing business with them. This means banks won't give you loans, etc. This pushes the sane people and those who dont care out. Thus you are not likely to see a good movie, unless they have an angel investor, or their own money.

    I grew up with Reagan being president, he was elected before I was ten and he left office after I became eighteen.
    He was not just on television as president, you could see his movies on networks, his movies were also included in music videos on MTV in its glory days. He was the first MTV president until Clinton and Obama. All three had charisma in spades.
    I was already thinking like a republican which was a asset and a liability at that time. Another problem was being black, conservative, and republican..a vocal republican. This didn't do me any favors.. but I refused to apologize for any of it.
    We need a president like Reagan again.

I believe, (and I pray that Dr. Peterson will see this) that his answers during the Q&A portion of the segment was genuinely something to behold. The care he took in giving his responses to those people’s heartfelt questions was inspiring.
    To Dr. Peterson: I hope your trip to see your Father today went well and I wish you and your family the best.

    Finally, an actor willing to portray one of our greatest presidents w/ reverence instead of a leftist skew of contempt. While recent presidential surveys are cooked propaganda, bearing no resemblance to fact or reality, the only survey that matters - We The People- places him at or near the top of every list. What he taught us about fighting Communism is more important now than ever.

      I thought it was nice in that respect as well. Both Dennis and Jordan except the fact that Trump is human with flaws, but the bully aspect may very well be why he is feared and respected by other world leaders. While Im like Dennis, I often say what the heck are you trying to do Trump, just keep it to yourself. I do not think he should make up names for people and bash them. If you do not like their policies then just state why and go on and show how you can make it better.

    Excellent interview. Ronald Reagan deserves to be the subject of a film at last, it's probably true to say he was the last really good President the USA had. He was 69 when he took office, so a good bit younger than the present incumbent and his main challenger. He had a great rapport with both the Queen ( a shared love and understanding of horses) and Margaret Thatcher, US - UK relations were good back then. It's easy to forget that Reagan was close to death after being shot early in his Presidency and suffered major blood loss, and as a result his brain was starved of oxygen which would have impaired his cognitive abilities considerably. To me he always came across as a thoroughly decent man of integrity. He could laugh at himself too, as seen by his appearances on Dean Martin's Celebrity Roasts on occasions, including being the "roastee" himself on one occasion. He was a fine communicator and had a lovely speaking voice. Hopefully the film will remind Americans of what a decent politician is like. Enjoyed this conversation greatly, thanks to Dennis Quaid and Dr Peterson.

      I lived through the Reagan era. I would say there are very few similarities between Reagan and Trump on a personal level. Reagan was a classy guy and not a narcissist, whereas Trump can be petty, immature and way to vulnerable to sycophantic overtures. I am not saying Trump was/will be a bad President, because his personality failings did not imprint on his policies. One thing they DID have in common was that they were/are both establishment outsiders.. one an actor, the other a businessman.. and both fiercely detested by the DC elites.

    We boarded horses next to Ronnie's "Yearling Row" horse breeding ranch in the Malibu mountains during the mid-1960s which he sold for a LOT of money, some say well over market value as a "campaign contribution". My father would spit out the window as we drove by. Dad was a Teamster union organizer.
    "Ronald Reagan owned the land that is now called Reagan Ranch from 1951-66. Reagan Ranch is located in Malibu Creek State Park. Reagan used the property for his horses. The trails are still quite popular for riders.
    From 1951 to 1966, Ronald Reagan and his family spent many weekends at their 357 acre ranch, a thoroughbred horse farm dubbed “Yearling Row” (hence “Yearling Trail” is there now).
    Reagan was very popular with Malibu Lake residents when he was a local and frequented Sam Perkins' general store that used to be across the street from his main gate.The future California Governor and U.S. President was an accomplished horseman and enjoyed jumping gates on his property. This Reagan Ranch was the second of three that existed in his lifetime. The first was in Northridge and the most famous ranch - his presidential retreat - was near Santa Barbara. Remaining on the park property today are the original stables, swimming pool and large outdoor barbecue." - Wiki

    Great conversation! I've always been a fan, and I really appreciate Dennis's sensible take on politics and his forthright manner on personal matters. I'd listen to these men chat anytime.
    I'm really looking forward to the Reagan movie. He was one of the greatest Presidents ever, IMO.

      Every interview you see is a fan interview. Every person who comes on the podcast comes because he or she is a fan or a friend of Dr. Peterson.

    These two are so normal! It is almost shocking but delightful. Their approaches are so different and it is obvious in this interview. Yet they are able to communicate with each other so well. Refreshing.

    Wonderful interview. Dennis Quaid is the coolest guy. I’ve met him twice, once when he won one of the University of Houston Alumni Outstanding Alumnus Awards & once on the day he moved his daughter on to the UH campus. He is such a genuine person; what you see is exactly who he is & I’m proud he’s a fellow Houston Cougar.
