Dr. Peterson, I want to thank you from the depths of my soul. I recently overcame a 10 year long opioid addiction, with this last year being a catatonic fentanyl zombie. Your videos saved my life! Your words gave me the courage to face my demons and by the grace of God I won. I don't know if I could have done it without your wisdom, and I am truly humbled and grateful for every word.
@@jesseray180 congrats on your achievement! you owe it to your self to be the best version of you. You are a complete badass for overcoming your struggles. Best of luck in the future!
Your words and your victory over darkness which threatens to take over my grandson. I love that you won. Satan and his followers will be after you to subject you again. Faith and Our Heavenly Father will hold you up. Stay Strong! I wish I knew you personally
@@margaretrapponotti its been almost a month, and I'm still doing well. Life has been challenging. I really dug myself in a pit. But I am grateful to even be alive so everything is a win after that.
met Dr Saad once in Montreal; he was with his family walking home after grabbing food. I was so shocked; his daughters were laughing at me for being star struck at their dad. He took a picture with me. That was one of my favorite experiences in Montreal.
To see Dr. Peterson back on his A game and the conversations emerging in the last month or so is sincerely renewing my hope for the future of humanity.
The moment I discovered Jordan back at the start of his troubles I knew he was a godsend a real gem that will make a difference and he has and still is
He is definitely not on his A game these days. He is repeating the same point over and over and only interviewing people who agrees with him/that he is sure he can convince or increasingly, dimwhit conservatives. Too bad, he had a good run in the beginning
Such an adult, intellectual, informative & thought provoking conversation. Admire these two men. Plus I’m very happy to know the definition of a “sneaky f’er”. 😊
This is an absolutely fascinating topic. While being raised by a stout catholic family, i was 'blessed' with the leeway to be a free thinking individual. My brothers and i were allowed to freely join the belief or not. My dad would love this conversation
@@BlessThisPlanet I recall an exorcist priest asking the question to people, "at birth, who do you belong to?"... answers given, parents and God. The real answer is the devil. We are born into original sin, separated from God through the sin of Adam. Through the sarament of baptism, we are restored in God's family and become His children.
My life was very similar. My grandparents were very devout catholics. I was a sh*tty antitheist with a loud mouth, and they never once held it against me. I really wish I could talk to them about how much I've changed... Maybe I will, if they end up being right...
About halfway through this interview, I realized the answer to Dr. Saad's question to Dr. Peterson's, on why Jordan Peterson is more controversial. Once Dr. Saad explained that he's not religious, that's the answer right there. The war that we face in this world is a spiritual war and they won't attack those that deny God, nearly as much as they as those that proclaim the one true God.
I’m glad RUclips led me to Dr Peterson. Then today my new man of truth. I’m an older woman in the US. My family immigrated from BC Canada. I want to compliment you both with the best words as you impress me so. It is written let your yes be yes you know the rest. So I say YES to supporting your desires for more informed citizens will sound off. I have wanted to nudge Dr Peterson from my experience as a Christian. Think eternally and be present in the now. It’s truly a joy to see you in action. Thank you for being 🎶🤟🏼🇨🇦🇺🇸
I’ve met Gad back in late ‘80 when he was at Mcgill Math-Computer Science. He’s a deep and highly critical thinker. He’s a character. And he’s a cool guy. ✌️
The title "forced" me to open this video immediately, and as expected it turned out to be much better than what I initially had expected it to be. Excellent conversation. This is what the human community should be talking about in order to start to understand what is really going on here on this planet. I also grew up in a family environment in which we were encouraged to free thinking. My dad would also have loved to listen to this conversation. Thanks for that and please do more like this one.
Just wow. I learn so much every time i listen to JBP. Prolly 20 new things learned in the first half. Still watching. How many people watch these discussions of his once carefully, then sleep on it a few days then rewatch to really sink it in. It really takes 2 watches with a 3 to 10 day rest between them to really drill in the concepts. I loved his college lecture series. OMFG. It really was the thing that made me think that RUclips was the next television.. Long form idea discussion is essential to develop cognition to the next level.

I use a truncated word as a kind of cute shortcut for probably as I don't like that word (probably) and never have it is full of Bably(e) - Pro-Babbley and is sounds like bible all of which is nonsense and full of jibberish. I hope that is a complete answer to a complex question buried underneath a question that you did not actually ask, but at least you can be assured from this rapidly typed out answer that my mind and spell checker are both up to the 2nd grade proficiency known as spelling. :)
As a scientist with a degree in ecology and evolutionary biology, this discussion is a dream come true! I appreciate the hard work of these two intelligent gentlemen!
More scientists need to speak on this. Plenty of doctors do but people don't realise that doctors aren't scientists. As someone who has dealt with a lot of doctors my experience is that they are some of the least scientific people I've met
Beautiful dialogue. Committing to hard work, being loving, family devotion, humor, following your interests, living an honest life with a solid moral compass and listening to God are all examples of living in truth. Can't wait to read the new book on happiness!
When the world get too weird, I can always count on you two. Seeing you together is pretty much a major cultural event every single time. I think so, anyway. Upwards. 👍
Dr Sadd is such a pleasant , and charismatic man. Love Dr Peterson too, completely different personality.WE are Bless to have these two men sharing their knowledge with us.
Gad Saad did an interview with Nassim Taleb that he posted on his channel a few months ago where they both complained that if anti-vaxxers would have just worn masks and gotten the Covid gene therapies the pandemic would have been over in no time and almost nobody would have died. Both assumptions are anti-scientific in the extreme and Gad Saad has removed the video from his channel. Is that the behavior of an honest person?
Both are very honest, not beating around the bush and dissecting each other arguments with nuance and polite yet contrast counter-argument, man, this kind of thing was normal, but nowadays it is looked down by most and regarded as cowardice while the reality is people just don't want to comprehend the discussion and wanted low resolution smear campaign disguising as debate.
Two words keep coming up these days...wisdom and humility. They are in short supply everywhere. Both of you have displayed both in bucket loads today. Thanks both. Sorry I'm late in saying so.
I’m addicted to these highly informative and intellectual interview/conversations! 😅 This was particularly fascinating towards the beginning with their joint analysis of the types of men who incite evil, riots, mayhem, etc.(my words). Keep up the great work of antagonizing the leftist enemies, stirring the pot of ire, and bringing a psychological perspective to so many of our modern issues.
For me, beside spending time with my beautiful wife and daughters, true happiness is to listen to these two folks. May you both be blessed by all the ten thousand divinities up there or perhaps by the simple human feeling of sincere gratitude! A big big thank you.
Authenticity is the pillar of this new epoch we are entering... and people who are authentic are maximally attractive - deceit and manipulativeness, and twisted intentions will be the most repelling traits, no matter what status or other achievements people may have. And many of us now are feeling this so very strongly...so figures like Jordan and Gad are beautiful examples, especially for the new generations, but for everyone, really.
I hope you are correct! It has become impossible to run from your own hypocrisy today, no matter how much censorship is used in an attempt to gaslight, people are more and more able to see through such manipulations. Unmasking the dark tetrad is integral to increasing humanity's wisdom.
Legendary duo, doing God's work gentleman I've no doubt these gentleman have improved countless lives, mine among them Thank you for your work and courage

I got saved by you Dr Peterson. I was embroiled in drugs and alcohol in university cowering away from the suffering that comes with carrying responsibility I had to face to grow. With his content I grew up and today I am close to marrying, building a home and taking back my kids that I had previously abandoned. I am now carefully facilitating or allowing God to facilitate something approximating a relationship with him. I'm speaking from South Africa. I cannot thank you enough.
Where two or more are gathered...I pray that thousands more are drawn. Thank you and may you both continually speaking the truth and shredding the dystopia of the world. With grace and in Love, I do Pray🙏🕊️
Dr. Jordan , I have been rewatching many of your videos here on youtube and I would incline you to check and compare your thoughts and words from episode 156 in comparison to todays episode and see your significant journey towards accepting The truth. I would even say Dr.Gad is at this point in the place you have been and some of his argumentations and critics to faith are similar to yours from back then. I feel joy to see you have come so far.
Dr. P. As a fellow clinician, your no bs approach is spot on. You are so damn right when people hold a totalrin belief, then they have control. Talk to folks who have lived in places like Cuba under Castro. Freedom will always win. Keep doing what your doing.
I enjoyed Dr Saad's previous book, a wonderful survey of how far Western culture has sunken into the limitations of political correctness and 'Woke' degradation. The degradation of the 'scientific method' into a grant funding competition for which teams get the cream, by supporting the ideas of their paymasters is truly a dangerous and despicable state of affairs.
I am a fan of your work, Jordan. I am also a lost tribe of Israel. It makes me Saad to be Gad on your podcast, Jordan. Best regards from I to you Dr. Peterson!
YES!!! Been waiting for this for years! Peterson Academy is finally launching this November! Ive been eager to learn for so long and cant wait to be apart of this experience! Hope to see you all there!
To achieve something worthwhile men need, balls , brains and integrity.Nobody is perfect, we all make mistakes but Peterson and Saad, have those three essential qualities.Their voices and those of other similar men and women are essential in these times of great danger, but equally great opportunity to stand up and be counted.
So many thoughts/values/issues, they discuss that have played in my mind for so long, and will continue to - so interesting to hear them debated, analyzed, discussed. Impressive minds , and so wonderful to see them disagree , civilly and intellectually.
❤ I love watching all your shared thoughts and debates Mr. Peterson. I am trying my best to be the best mom I can be and to really be there for my kids and teach them all I can how to cultivate discernment and courage and honesty and accountability. Also how to attain inner happiness, kindness and yet being strong.❤ Also to grow in their faith and how to stead fast in it.
This was so enjoyable to watch, both of you men are as brilliant as each other, and I look forward to following Dr Sadd more, have been a fan of Dr Peterson for years 👏
I've GOT to get a copy of " The Parasitic Mind." Living in a very Progressive city and an ULTRA Progressive Left neighborhood in that city, the book would help me make sense of what the heck is going on around here. Even the normal typical Liberal types that I know have cashed in their intellectual chips, so to speak. Lost LOTS of friends, unfortunately. Not me leaving them.....them leaving me. Thank you Dr. Saad.
I have no religion & yet see the "divine other" (probably God) via subjective experience (revelation), therefore belief in "God" does not require religion, that there are many religions, says to me that many people have had some similar experience & interpreted it in their context. In one day I went from hardcore atheist to "knowing" that the divine perception has substance, for me discussing religion is to discuss a out of context proxy for the "Divine other". I greatly enjoy both of your perspectives, thank you
Such an interesting and thought provoking conversation. It's always interesting to hear different perspectives, valid perspectives, it broadens and helps develop your own perspective of life and finding meaning in your life. I have to laugh though on the subject of the supernatural. I would be so fascinated to see these two gentlemen spend the night in the offices I work in. It's a house converted into office space and we definitely have some paranormal entity. It's a young, playful energy. The majority of us have experienced it, I have on numerous occasions. The men in the office are hard hat, safety boot wearing men and they've all experienced. It's more active in the Summer months. Our Spring is just starting and one of my colleagues who's been a great sceptic said to me today, there really IS an Oomie (Afrikaans for little Uncle) here. Yep! And when we put our Christmas decorations up it becomes even more active. Whoever gets there first in the morning to unlock always says 'more Oomie' (Morning Oomie). If it's me I always set the alarm off, my key gets stuck in door or something and after the loud woowoowoo of the alarm I always say 'jammer Oomie - dis net ek!' (Sorry Oomie - it's just me). And yes take responsibility for yourself, your actions, your thoughts, your happiness and fulfilment.
I was enjoying your conversation with Dr. Gad Saad when during the conversation a recorded add interupted what you and Dr. gad Saad were talking about is it possible for the future to time the adds so none of the conversation is missed by people watching the recording,so maybe there could be a short break while the adds come on. I am sertain /certain there could be easyly millions who would not want to miss the convo Between Dr. Jordan Peterson and Dr. Gad Saad. I am a fan of yours I try never to miss a conversation about anything that you mr. Dr. peterson is explaining most of the time I understand it clearly whatever it is that you are explaining. ( i am an Epileptic) and I do not have any dificulties understanding you explaining any subject.
Yeah, it seems he's focusing only on one aspect of the topic. Just because some people misuse it, it doesn't mean it's a bad thing per se. This is by the way his own way of thinking regarding what is referred to as toxic masculinity: it's not that just because some men misuse their masculinity that we need to wage a war against masculinity itself. I think he might have seen too much of the misuse of anonymity, but the same could be said about some of the women who now say ''kill all men'' just because all their exes were douchebags. And it's not like I have any problem with stating my name and surname (Mathias Dingenouts, not that it's supposed to mean something to the general public), but I want this to be a choice and not something that's always out there 100% of the time. I don't go presenting myself to everyone I cross my path with, so why should I do this on the internet which is a lot worse than real life? I agree with the ''put your name to it'' argument, but not everything can be explained away with that.
Jordan is like J Jonah Jameson from the Spider-Man comics in this. Jameson's personal life was ruined by a man in a mask, therefor all masked men must be up to no good, and it can never be that a mask can serve a good purpose. Jameson, in most versions of the story, is a man with a heart that wants good, but who hates anonymous vigilantism so much, that he ends up enabling really bad people who don't mind putting their name on something, and even helps fund and create villains at certain points. Jordan personally experienced attacks by anonymous people, he's now carrying a chip on his shoulder for them that clouds his vision. In many things, he carries wisdom, but like all men, he has blind spots. In many Spider-Man versions, Jameson does wake up to the reality that Spider-Man is actually a good guy, but it takes him being beaten over the head with reality over and over again for it to sink in. I think, in reality, this may be ever harder for Jordan to grasp now, because we're not talking fiction that gets wrapped up with a neat little bow, and we're not talking about someone focusing their bias on a single target. Jordan will always be able to reinforce his bias, because there will always be bad actors hiding behind anonymity for him to point to and say "See, see?". In the same way that, with hundreds of millions of guns in circulation, there will always be people who misuse them to bring harm, anti-gun types can point to those, completely ignoring the lives saved by guns, because that's harder to quantify in statistics. The idea of put your face with your argument or it's meaningless is emotional nonsense. Either the argument has legs (is based in fact) or it doesn't. This kind of thing is almost the same as people who would ridicule a man for being beat up by a woman, yet, if he ran, would also berate him, if he fought back against a female attacker, would then despise him, and if he stood there and got killed somehow, would be appalled, but quickly push him out of mind, and allow their bias to give her a lesser sentence for the crime of murder than a man.
@@JordanBPeterson Dear Dr. Peterson, I intentionally wrote down my full name with the specific intention of proving that for a lot of people this has nothing to do with cowardice. It has to do with privacy as a fundamental right. Saying that valuing anonymity is just about cowardice is like saying that if you don't give all of your information to the government it's solely because you have something to hide. This might not be a sophisticated comparison, but it should get the point across. It may be true for some people for whom it is indeed about cowardice, but going ''scorched earth'' on it negates a whole lot of other principles that we all valued dearly up until the internet came along. I have always stated clearly my opinions and honestly I gladly paid for the consequences of it. I publicly stood against covid mandates, against unregulated illegal immigration, against both racism towards minorities and against anti-west rhetorics, against both communists and against fascists, against both government encroachment and against nihilistic anarchists. I had heated debates, I got beaten by a gang because I openly defended someone who was being wronged, I lost friends and family members, refused job opportunities and much more. I've always spoken my mind openly and I've always been happy to pay for the inevitable consequences, because that's part of the deal of doing your best of being truthful with yourself and with everyone else. *And I would do it all over again if I had to.* I am working on plans for the near future, which would inevitably entail becoming a somewhat public figure here in my country and I'm already preparing myself for the inevitable abuse that the internet will throw at me. And I'm fine with that. But if someone is not a *public* figure, he or she is therefore a *private* figure and has therefore the right to be exactly that. *Private.* This doesn't mean you don't stand for anything you value, it just means you exercise the right to choose when and when not to put on the internet your information. I hope I managed to explained myself a little bit better, because as someone who looks up to you due to all the things I learned from your work, being so badly misunderstood isn't exactly a pleasant experience. Not that I'm new to being misunderstood by people I care about. But I won't accept being falsely accused of being a ''coward'' after all I've went through precisely not to be one. I will still continue to follow your work because there are a lot more things we agree than disagree on. But I hope you'll take in consideration what I tried to explain in this comment. I wish you a blessed day, Greetings from Milan, Italy.
Jordan. Idk if you actually have time to read these. But I love you and your messages. I'm disabled and have been fighting to reclaim my health. I wish I had a Dad like you growing up. I'm in college right now instead of collecting disability. I need shoulder surgeries. Both arms are so bad some that I can't move to good. Some days I can. I started digging into vitamins and hormones and found I was way off on Vit B, Testosterone, (Estrogen was to high), alkaline phosphate to low. The search continues. High blood pressure from stress. Working on that. I wish you could shine more light on how all of us could get our vitamin, mineral, and hormones optimized. How many do we have in our bodies? What all do we have? How do we balance them. What do we need to be asking our doctors. Thanks brother 🤝🏻
Mr. Peterson, stay Strong. You are covered with prayers and by the hand of God. Whether you know it or not and I know I see the hurt that it does to you when people just don't get it.! Not even basic conversations. It's almost worth not even trying anymore and distance ourself from them.. . You're better with so much stronger. You can silence them. Live and love. Stay well. You'll prayed for you and your family forever protection by Jehovah and never hold your tongue! Your children will be very strong, beautiful adults. God bless you
@DioBrandoWRYYYYYY Notice they used the name "Jehovah". Watchtower turned them into a cult member long before they ever found Peterson. It's a predisposition of the individual, not the fault of some stranger on the internet.
2:13 Courage is indeed rare, recently someone notified me that it's much more rare than i thought. I always assumed it was my own personality that caused degeneracy and prevented others from being courageous. I'm somewhat relieved JP also didn't know it was so rare and learned that somewhat recently. In todays age there are cyberspace occupied by many sadistic, low value narcissists who try to victimise a lot of people, especially women. I'm lucky my case wasn't so bad compared to the degeneracy i read about. I learned that these spaces are full of users who will watch streams and data of victims but feel no inclination to do anything about it. They much rather are silent little cowards. These cyberspaces are like a totalitarian state. People will listen and compulsively join or stay quiet, and feel fine about that. 1 in maybe 100 condones it, despite psychopaths being 3%. This baffles me, but it also forces me to realize its not me, its the effect caused by people sitting in a cyberspace and turning into silent gutless animals.
Courage IS rare, that’s probably part of why it’s an inspiring virtue. Most people don’t want to put themselves at risk we all know this. Which solidifies bravery as a virtue even more if you like. Courage isn’t commonplace in my estimation, not in our day.
51:11 it never ceases to amaze me how very smart people will always define “religion” as the most fundamentalist, literalist, illogical form of religion. I think theology really needs to be taught to everyone so we can get past this idea that religion = televangelism and tent revivals.
I’m a 26 years old Iraqi clinical pharmacist. My name is Serraa Khaphají. And this is a message to Dr. Peterson. I’ve been a student to your teachings since 2017, and I cannot help but agree with the majority of what you teach, share, voice and believe. The reason that got me to comment today is this: I’ve overheard my parents watching an Iraqi interview between a tv show host and an activist, discussing the concept of the ‘social gender’, and the conspicuous opinion -now- that gender includes the social, psychological, cultural and behavioral aspects of both biological genders and ‘supposedly’ other gender-identity. This ideology is being openly discussed here in Iraq, on the political front, but not yet socially. Us Iraqis have the not-so-intellectual attitude to care about ‘trend’ a little bit more than necessary, and to be entirely honest, I am terrified. Iraq has been the closest thing to the host of multi-angled totalitarian despotism ever since 1978, or maybe before that. Politically, religiously, and socially, Iraq has been abused far than what’s imaginable, and it is not getting any better, not with this. Why? is the Left absolutely scared of their ‘theory’ falling out of proportion to the point they have to push it to another country to support it? Why this? People here have been confused as it is about raising their children since the 80’s, and I know it never looked like it was getting any better (at-least across my personal lifespan), but this? This where our politics still doesn’t accept homosexuality? I always agree with your notion about specifying a place to stay the hell away from, I never thought though, that this place would be my country, not to this extent. I hope this gets discussed by intellects like you, who search and seek the truth, and I hope you see this, because truly, never have I felt before to this degree, that things are spilling uncontrollably out of hands. Thank you…
... Hi Serraa ... i admire the articulation in these videos too ... I don´t read books and have always had trouble reading any book front to back, apart from The BFG (short for The Big Friendly Giant) is a 1982 children's book written by British novelist Roald Dahl ... and also Animal Farm, which is a beast fable, in the form of a satirical allegorical novella, by George Orwell, first published in England in 1945 ... these books have quite an appeal ... I have great difficulty mixing science and politics and we saw this occur with COVID, as that soon became more controversial as the months went by ... i still find the science a problem with the grief response or traumatic loss, having been trying to work through my own grief response for over 20 years, after losing my mother to a brain disorder, tonic clonic epilepsy... i then became disillusioned by therapuetic interventions with SSRi medication and Fluoxetine, and I wouldn´t regard them as anti-bereavement drugs particularly ... I gather the grief response is more an art than a science per se, as all interventions failed for me ... and I still haven´t found a complete solution ... I would add that the concept of ‘socially constructed gender’ is new to me, as I don´t watch the news nor am I in the education fields to know what is happening ... although just hearing the term for the first time gave me doubts that ‘socially constructed gender’ is 100% reliable terminology ...
@@wn9861 Thank you so much for sharing 🙏🏻 I’m sorry for your loss, and I hope you feel more equipped in this world relatively soon. I can’t but express my deep gratitude to critical thinking, you see, anyone would appreciate the truth no matter how harsh.
@@Serraainc ... thank you! ... in my experience the truth isn´t all good ... the worst part of grief are the memories, which were intense for about 8 years ... felt very numb ... it tapered off, but is always there on a daily basis ... it varies in degrees of intensity year on year ... I wouldn´t wish this pain on anyone ... i have also relocated to a foreign country of Spain for three years, and this also has a grieving aspect due to loss of home country ... homesickness has been quite bad, along with an anxiety disorder, homesickness is a path to a psychiatric hospital for us less emotionally robust people ... a big move ... and i have a major recent job loss too ... i am in quite some chaos.
@@Serraainc ... I'm from England ... although i moved across England for employment before moving to Barcelona three years ago ... I moved alone and my Spanish is very poor ...
I wanted to like this video many times. Social media is a threat to humanity and also a gift, since it allows me to have access to a conversation such as this.
Successful people don't become that way overnight. most people see at a glance-wealth, a great career, purpose-is the result of hard work and hustle over time. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life..

Your words gave me the courage to face my demons and by the grace of God I won. I don't know if I could have done it without your wisdom, and I am truly humbled and grateful for every word.

Extremely envious. I probably would have avoided years of misguided rage had my parents granted me the same freedom. You're very, very lucky.
Maybe your dad had no respect for the hypocrisy and corruption of the Catholic Clergy the way my dad did.😊

About halfway through this interview, I realized the answer to Dr. Saad's question to Dr. Peterson's, on why Jordan Peterson is more controversial. Once Dr. Saad explained that he's not religious, that's the answer right there. The war that we face in this world is a spiritual war and they won't attack those that deny God, nearly as much as they as those that proclaim the one true God.
bingo
Wow .....I would have to agree with that statement .....how fun is that ?
Yup
I agree. We live in societies where every abomination to God is legal and glorified. Or simply evil times.
Amen
Good thing with these high quality conversations is that you can watch it again and understand even more of the body of the issues talked about!
Yes very true its like watching a great movie again pick out nuances
the most entertaining part was the kitty tie
I’m glad RUclips led me to Dr Peterson. Then today my new man of truth.
I’m an older woman in the US. My family immigrated from BC Canada.
I want to compliment you both with the best words as you impress me so. It is written let your yes be yes you know the rest. So I say YES to supporting your desires for more informed citizens will sound off.
I have wanted to nudge Dr Peterson from my experience as a Christian. Think eternally and be present in the now.
It’s truly a joy to see you in action.
Thank you for being

What a breath of fresh air listening to these 2 great Canadians speak some truth and common sense. Gives me some hope for this broken country!
I’ve met Gad back in late ‘80 when he was at Mcgill Math-Computer Science. He’s a deep and highly critical thinker. He’s a character. And he’s a cool guy. ✌️
Never met him but I agree because I feel like I know him just from social media
@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist8bot
I could listen to these two all day. The Gadfather's chill, almost DGAF demeanor and Jordan's commited seriousness make for a very enjoyable dynamic.
The title "forced" me to open this video immediately, and as expected it turned out to be much better than what I initially had expected it to be. Excellent conversation. This is what the human community should be talking about in order to start to understand what is really going on here on this planet. I also grew up in a family environment in which we were encouraged to free thinking. My dad would also have loved to listen to this conversation. Thanks for that and please do more like this one.
Just wow. I learn so much every time i listen to JBP. Prolly 20 new things learned in the first half. Still watching. How many people watch these discussions of his once carefully, then sleep on it a few days then rewatch to really sink it in. It really takes 2 watches with a 3 to 10 day rest between them to really drill in the concepts. I loved his college lecture series. OMFG. It really was the thing that made me think that RUclips was the next television.. Long form idea discussion is essential to develop cognition to the next level.
prolly? maybe learn how to spell?

As a scientist with a degree in ecology and evolutionary biology, this discussion is a dream come true! I appreciate the hard work of these two intelligent gentlemen!
More scientists need to speak on this. Plenty of doctors do but people don't realise that doctors aren't scientists. As someone who has dealt with a lot of doctors my experience is that they are some of the least scientific people I've met

"Sneaky fuckers" is a genius term, completely on point. Great conversation; Peace from Lebanon.
Beautiful dialogue. Committing to hard work, being loving, family devotion, humor, following your interests, living an honest life with a solid moral compass and listening to God are all examples of living in truth. Can't wait to read the new book on happiness!
was it a dialogue? i feel like it was mostly dr peterson talking with gad saad only getting in a few words every now and then.
When the world get too weird, I can always count on you two. Seeing you together is pretty much a major cultural event every single time. I think so, anyway. Upwards. 👍
Just wonderful, intelligent and thought provoking conversation of great minds!
Dr Sadd is such a pleasant , and charismatic man. Love Dr Peterson too, completely different personality.WE are Bless to have these two men sharing their knowledge with us.
These two are heroes. Truly courageous and honest when so many aren’t.
Their souls and integrity are in tact….that’s for sure
i think they go to pains to explain, that you just need to know what to be fearful of, and people are not to be feared.
Gad Saad did an interview with Nassim Taleb that he posted on his channel a few months ago where they both complained that if anti-vaxxers would have just worn masks and gotten the Covid gene therapies the pandemic would have been over in no time and almost nobody would have died. Both assumptions are anti-scientific in the extreme and Gad Saad has removed the video from his channel. Is that the behavior of an honest person?
@@martino8114 Are you high?

I'm so glad you had Dr. Saad on again, brilliant! Two of the greatest thinkers of our time.
Both are very honest, not beating around the bush and dissecting each other arguments with nuance and polite yet contrast counter-argument, man, this kind of thing was normal, but nowadays it is looked down by most and regarded as cowardice while the reality is people just don't want to comprehend the discussion and wanted low resolution smear campaign disguising as debate.
Maybe of all time...
It is the strong men who remain standing through adversity that really make a difference to the world around them
Two words keep coming up these days...wisdom and humility. They are in short supply everywhere. Both of you have displayed both in bucket loads today. Thanks both. Sorry I'm late in saying so.
humility doesn't seem to exist in either of these 2.
I’m addicted to these highly informative and intellectual interview/conversations! 😅
This was particularly fascinating towards the beginning with their joint analysis of the types of men who incite evil, riots, mayhem, etc.(my words). Keep up the great work of antagonizing the leftist enemies, stirring the pot of ire, and bringing a psychological perspective to so many of our modern issues.
Such a high level of integrity and courage. Thank you for all the sacrifices you make for the rest of us. ❤❤❤💯
For me, beside spending time with my beautiful wife and daughters, true happiness is to listen to these two folks.
May you both be blessed by all the ten thousand divinities up there or perhaps by the simple human feeling of sincere gratitude! A big big thank you.
Authenticity is the pillar of this new epoch we are entering... and people who are authentic are maximally attractive - deceit and manipulativeness, and twisted intentions will be the most repelling traits, no matter what status or other achievements people may have. And many of us now are feeling this so very strongly...so figures like Jordan and Gad are beautiful examples, especially for the new generations, but for everyone, really.
I hope you are correct! It has become impossible to run from your own hypocrisy today, no matter how much censorship is used in an attempt to gaslight, people are more and more able to see through such manipulations. Unmasking the dark tetrad is integral to increasing humanity's wisdom.
Agree. You so eloquently described how being authentic will reign supreme in this world
Thank you Professor for your discussion with Dr Saad. Great listening to two intelligent men talk about their similar ideas. Cheers from Ottawa.
This was an absolutely excellent conversation. Stimulating and thought provoking.

Thx but I'm watching it all
It seems rather inevitable that these intelligent minds would cross paths and become friends. What a wonderful dialogue to listen to
I got saved by you Dr Peterson. I was embroiled in drugs and alcohol in university cowering away from the suffering that comes with carrying responsibility I had to face to grow. With his content I grew up and today I am close to marrying, building a home and taking back my kids that I had previously abandoned. I am now carefully facilitating or allowing God to facilitate something approximating a relationship with him. I'm speaking from South Africa. I cannot thank you enough.
I have never watched or heard more intellectual truth insults in my life!.
You guys are both amazing legends.
Two brilliant people that make a subject easily understandable for me, a simple, elderly woman! Thank you
May God give us open doors and the courage to share the Truth
Where two or more are gathered...I pray that thousands more are drawn. Thank you and may you both continually speaking the truth and shredding the dystopia of the world. With grace and in Love, I do Pray🙏🕊️
Naturally bingeing on Peterson lectures since 2018
This is amazingly spot on! Great episode as always Dr Peterson!
Dr. Jordan , I have been rewatching many of your videos here on youtube and I would incline you to check and compare your thoughts and words from episode 156 in comparison to todays episode and see your significant journey towards accepting The truth. I would even say Dr.Gad is at this point in the place you have been and some of his argumentations and critics to faith are similar to yours from back then. I feel joy to see you have come so far.
I thoroughly enjoy and appreciate these intellectual, thought provoking conversations. What a treat.
Two of my most favorite Canadians! Stimulating as always. Love you guys!
Power couple! Thank you both for bringing back the meaning to us🙏🏼
Dr. P. As a fellow clinician, your no bs approach is spot on. You are so damn right when people hold a totalrin belief, then they have control. Talk to folks who have lived in places like Cuba under Castro. Freedom will always win. Keep doing what your doing.
Just arrived here. It has made my day to see my two favorite Docs. together again. Much love and respect to you both!
A true powerhouse of collaboration and discussion here between two of the great minds of our time - what a treat. Cheers!
Listening to these two amazing minds wrapped in these two amazing people is amazing.
Bless Gad Saad’s soul.
I have so much strength from Mr. Peterson i could cry, i see a person who how can just state the obviouse is the earnest character you could know.
Two of my favourite human beings discussing deep topics with the occasional comedy thrown into the mix. I really enjoyed this. Thank you Gentlemen.
Both of these men have moral courage in spades.
JBP and Gad Saad! This is going to be awesome! Putting the kettle on and putting phone on silent! :)
It's been a long time but this duo did not disappoint. Cheers.
I enjoyed Dr Saad's previous book, a wonderful survey of how far Western culture has sunken into the limitations of political correctness and 'Woke' degradation. The degradation of the 'scientific method' into a grant funding competition for which teams get the cream, by supporting the ideas of their paymasters is truly a dangerous and despicable state of affairs.
I am a fan of your work, Jordan. I am also a lost tribe of Israel.
It makes me Saad to be Gad on your podcast, Jordan.
Best regards from I to you Dr. Peterson!
A timely discussion..which was appreciated.. thankyou to both speakers. A mirror of reflection indeed.
YES!!! Been waiting for this for years! Peterson Academy is finally launching this November! Ive been eager to learn for so long and cant wait to be apart of this experience! Hope to see you all there!
It's accredited? And you can become a therapist?
Amazing talk. Loved it. Thanks for making so much sense
To achieve something worthwhile men need, balls , brains and integrity.Nobody is perfect, we all make mistakes but Peterson and Saad, have those three essential qualities.Their voices and those of other similar men and women are essential in these times of great danger, but equally great opportunity to stand up and be counted.
Several of my favorite people in one spot 👌
Thank you gentlemen.
i first found out about dr peterson through gad saad. i owe a lot to these two wonderful canadians
Good to see these two in conversation again 👌🙏🏻
Two gifts to the world! Thank you both for speaking the truth 🙏
Dr Saad is a master in irony 😂
So many thoughts/values/issues, they discuss that have played in my mind for so long, and will continue to - so interesting to hear them debated, analyzed, discussed. Impressive minds , and so wonderful to see them disagree , civilly and intellectually.
❤ I love watching all your shared thoughts and debates Mr. Peterson. I am trying my best to be the best mom I can be and to really be there for my kids and teach them all I can how to cultivate discernment and courage and honesty and accountability. Also how to attain inner happiness, kindness and yet being strong.❤ Also to grow in their faith and how to stead fast in it.
This was so enjoyable to watch, both of you men are as brilliant as each other, and I look forward to following Dr Sadd more, have been a fan of Dr Peterson for years 👏
I've GOT to get a copy of " The Parasitic Mind." Living in a very Progressive city and an ULTRA Progressive Left neighborhood in that city, the book would help me make sense of what the heck is going on around here. Even the normal typical Liberal types that I know have cashed in their intellectual chips, so to speak. Lost LOTS of friends, unfortunately. Not me leaving them.....them leaving me. Thank you Dr. Saad.
Courage is a form of love. These two humans are very loving and lovable.
I have no religion & yet see the "divine other" (probably God) via subjective experience (revelation), therefore belief in "God" does not require religion, that there are many religions, says to me that many people have had some similar experience & interpreted it in their context. In one day I went from hardcore atheist to "knowing" that the divine perception has substance, for me discussing religion is to discuss a out of context proxy for the "Divine other". I greatly enjoy both of your perspectives, thank you
Thank you for enabling someone like me to view your interviews! May God keep on blessing you and your love ones! Cheers
Such an interesting and thought provoking conversation. It's always interesting to hear different perspectives, valid perspectives, it broadens and helps develop your own perspective of life and finding meaning in your life. I have to laugh though on the subject of the supernatural. I would be so fascinated to see these two gentlemen spend the night in the offices I work in. It's a house converted into office space and we definitely have some paranormal entity. It's a young, playful energy. The majority of us have experienced it, I have on numerous occasions. The men in the office are hard hat, safety boot wearing men and they've all experienced. It's more active in the Summer months. Our Spring is just starting and one of my colleagues who's been a great sceptic said to me today, there really IS an Oomie (Afrikaans for little Uncle) here. Yep! And when we put our Christmas decorations up it becomes even more active. Whoever gets there first in the morning to unlock always says 'more Oomie' (Morning Oomie). If it's me I always set the alarm off, my key gets stuck in door or something and after the loud woowoowoo of the alarm I always say 'jammer Oomie - dis net ek!' (Sorry Oomie - it's just me). And yes take responsibility for yourself, your actions, your thoughts, your happiness and fulfilment.
love your books peterson really helped me 💪🏻
This is hands down one of the best yet. Thank you both for this amazing conversation.
I find great solace in this conversation. So very difficult to find the middle ground in all the topics, yet I do. Thanks to this episode!
Oh heck yeah. Two of greats!!
I love Gad Saad! Hes hilarious!
Brilliant Brilliant discussion with two awesome men 👏 Thank you so much
I was enjoying your conversation with Dr. Gad Saad when during the conversation a recorded add interupted what you and Dr. gad Saad were talking about is it possible for the future to time the adds so none of the conversation is missed by people watching the recording,so maybe there could be a short break while the adds come on. I am sertain /certain there could be easyly millions who would not want to miss the convo Between Dr. Jordan Peterson and Dr. Gad Saad. I am a fan of yours I try never to miss a conversation about anything that you mr. Dr. peterson is explaining most of the time I understand it clearly whatever it is that you are explaining. ( i am an Epileptic) and I do not have any dificulties understanding you explaining any subject.
Thank God, for the 2 of you .❤
Listening to this again, I enjoyed it just like the first time. Just lovely
Love Dr Saad! Great to have two of Canada's best thinkers together!
Anonymity is vital, Jordan. Miles off on this.
Yeah, it seems he's focusing only on one aspect of the topic.
Just because some people misuse it, it doesn't mean it's a bad thing per se.
This is by the way his own way of thinking regarding what is referred to as toxic masculinity: it's not that just because some men misuse their masculinity that we need to wage a war against masculinity itself.
I think he might have seen too much of the misuse of anonymity, but the same could be said about some of the women who now say ''kill all men'' just because all their exes were douchebags.
And it's not like I have any problem with stating my name and surname (Mathias Dingenouts, not that it's supposed to mean something to the general public), but I want this to be a choice and not something that's always out there 100% of the time.
I don't go presenting myself to everyone I cross my path with, so why should I do this on the internet which is a lot worse than real life?
I agree with the ''put your name to it'' argument, but not everything can be explained away with that.
Jordan is like J Jonah Jameson from the Spider-Man comics in this. Jameson's personal life was ruined by a man in a mask, therefor all masked men must be up to no good, and it can never be that a mask can serve a good purpose.
Jameson, in most versions of the story, is a man with a heart that wants good, but who hates anonymous vigilantism so much, that he ends up enabling really bad people who don't mind putting their name on something, and even helps fund and create villains at certain points.
Jordan personally experienced attacks by anonymous people, he's now carrying a chip on his shoulder for them that clouds his vision. In many things, he carries wisdom, but like all men, he has blind spots. In many Spider-Man versions, Jameson does wake up to the reality that Spider-Man is actually a good guy, but it takes him being beaten over the head with reality over and over again for it to sink in.
I think, in reality, this may be ever harder for Jordan to grasp now, because we're not talking fiction that gets wrapped up with a neat little bow, and we're not talking about someone focusing their bias on a single target.
Jordan will always be able to reinforce his bias, because there will always be bad actors hiding behind anonymity for him to point to and say "See, see?". In the same way that, with hundreds of millions of guns in circulation, there will always be people who misuse them to bring harm, anti-gun types can point to those, completely ignoring the lives saved by guns, because that's harder to quantify in statistics.
The idea of put your face with your argument or it's meaningless is emotional nonsense. Either the argument has legs (is based in fact) or it doesn't.
This kind of thing is almost the same as people who would ridicule a man for being beat up by a woman, yet, if he ran, would also berate him, if he fought back against a female attacker, would then despise him, and if he stood there and got killed somehow, would be appalled, but quickly push him out of mind, and allow their bias to give her a lesser sentence for the crime of murder than a man.
All you anonymous cowards use the same pathetic rationalizations. You're all brave truth tellers too afraid to face the consequences of your actions.
@@JordanBPeterson
Dear Dr. Peterson,
I intentionally wrote down my full name with the specific intention of proving that for a lot of people this has nothing to do with cowardice. It has to do with privacy as a fundamental right.
Saying that valuing anonymity is just about cowardice is like saying that if you don't give all of your information to the government it's solely because you have something to hide.
This might not be a sophisticated comparison, but it should get the point across.
It may be true for some people for whom it is indeed about cowardice, but going ''scorched earth'' on it negates a whole lot of other principles that we all valued dearly up until the internet came along.
I have always stated clearly my opinions and honestly I gladly paid for the consequences of it.
I publicly stood against covid mandates, against unregulated illegal immigration, against both racism towards minorities and against anti-west rhetorics, against both communists and against fascists, against both government encroachment and against nihilistic anarchists.
I had heated debates, I got beaten by a gang because I openly defended someone who was being wronged, I lost friends and family members, refused job opportunities and much more.
I've always spoken my mind openly and I've always been happy to pay for the inevitable consequences, because that's part of the deal of doing your best of being truthful with yourself and with everyone else.
*And I would do it all over again if I had to.*
I am working on plans for the near future, which would inevitably entail becoming a somewhat public figure here in my country and I'm already preparing myself for the inevitable abuse that the internet will throw at me. And I'm fine with that. But if someone is not a *public* figure, he or she is therefore a *private* figure and has therefore the right to be exactly that. *Private.*
This doesn't mean you don't stand for anything you value, it just means you exercise the right to choose when and when not to put on the internet your information.
I hope I managed to explained myself a little bit better, because as someone who looks up to you due to all the things I learned from your work, being so badly misunderstood isn't exactly a pleasant experience. Not that I'm new to being misunderstood by people I care about.
But I won't accept being falsely accused of being a ''coward'' after all I've went through precisely not to be one.
I will still continue to follow your work because there are a lot more things we agree than disagree on. But I hope you'll take in consideration what I tried to explain in this comment.
I wish you a blessed day,
Greetings from Milan, Italy.
Jordan Peterson has a beautiful mind. Im grateful God blessed him with that gift and he is sharing it with us. Thank you Jordan for Listening to GOD.
Jordan. Idk if you actually have time to read these. But I love you and your messages. I'm disabled and have been fighting to reclaim my health. I wish I had a Dad like you growing up. I'm in college right now instead of collecting disability. I need shoulder surgeries. Both arms are so bad some that I can't move to good. Some days I can. I started digging into vitamins and hormones and found I was way off on Vit B, Testosterone, (Estrogen was to high), alkaline phosphate to low. The search continues. High blood pressure from stress. Working on that. I wish you could shine more light on how all of us could get our vitamin, mineral, and hormones optimized. How many do we have in our bodies? What all do we have? How do we balance them. What do we need to be asking our doctors. Thanks brother 🤝🏻
Mr. Peterson, stay Strong. You are covered with prayers and by the hand of God. Whether you know it or not and I know I see the hurt that it does to you when people just don't get it.! Not even basic conversations. It's almost worth not even trying anymore and distance ourself from them..
. You're better with so much stronger. You can silence them. Live and love. Stay well. You'll prayed for you and your family forever protection by Jehovah and never hold your tongue! Your children will be very strong, beautiful adults. God bless you

Courage is indeed rare, recently someone notified me that it's much more rare than i thought. I always assumed it was my own personality that caused degeneracy and prevented others from being courageous. I'm somewhat relieved JP also didn't know it was so rare and learned that somewhat recently.
In todays age there are cyberspace occupied by many sadistic, low value narcissists who try to victimise a lot of people, especially women. I'm lucky my case wasn't so bad compared to the degeneracy i read about. I learned that these spaces are full of users who will watch streams and data of victims but feel no inclination to do anything about it. They much rather are silent little cowards. These cyberspaces are like a totalitarian state. People will listen and compulsively join or stay quiet, and feel fine about that. 1 in maybe 100 condones it, despite psychopaths being 3%. This baffles me, but it also forces me to realize its not me, its the effect caused by people sitting in a cyberspace and turning into silent gutless animals.
Fascinating talk from two wonderful academics.
A pleasure watching and listening to this conversation. Look forward to more. 👍
Courage IS rare, that’s probably part of why it’s an inspiring virtue. Most people don’t want to put themselves at risk we all know this. Which solidifies bravery as a virtue even more if you like. Courage isn’t commonplace in my estimation, not in our day.
Love Saad's thoughts on why we don't need the supernatural
51:11 it never ceases to amaze me how very smart people will always define “religion” as the most fundamentalist, literalist, illogical form of religion. I think theology really needs to be taught to everyone so we can get past this idea that religion = televangelism and tent revivals.
“religion” as the most fundamentalist, literalist, illogical form of religion?
sounds about right.
Those sound like words coming from a not "very smart person".
I’m a 26 years old Iraqi clinical pharmacist. My name is Serraa Khaphají. And this is a message to Dr. Peterson.
I’ve been a student to your teachings since 2017, and I cannot help but agree with the majority of what you teach, share, voice and believe. The reason that got me to comment today is this: I’ve overheard my parents watching an Iraqi interview between a tv show host and an activist, discussing the concept of the ‘social gender’, and the conspicuous opinion -now- that gender includes the social, psychological, cultural and behavioral aspects of both biological genders and ‘supposedly’ other gender-identity. This ideology is being openly discussed here in Iraq, on the political front, but not yet socially. Us Iraqis have the not-so-intellectual attitude to care about ‘trend’ a little bit more than necessary, and to be entirely honest, I am terrified.
Iraq has been the closest thing to the host of multi-angled totalitarian despotism ever since 1978, or maybe before that. Politically, religiously, and socially, Iraq has been abused far than what’s imaginable, and it is not getting any better, not with this. Why? is the Left absolutely scared of their ‘theory’ falling out of proportion to the point they have to push it to another country to support it? Why this? People here have been confused as it is about raising their children since the 80’s, and I know it never looked like it was getting any better (at-least across my personal lifespan), but this? This where our politics still doesn’t accept homosexuality?
I always agree with your notion about specifying a place to stay the hell away from, I never thought though, that this place would be my country, not to this extent.
I hope this gets discussed by intellects like you, who search and seek the truth, and I hope you see this, because truly, never have I felt before to this degree, that things are spilling uncontrollably out of hands.
Thank you…
... Hi Serraa ... i admire the articulation in these videos too ... I don´t read books and have always had trouble reading any book front to back, apart from The BFG (short for The Big Friendly Giant) is a 1982 children's book written by British novelist Roald Dahl ... and also Animal Farm, which is a beast fable, in the form of a satirical allegorical novella, by George Orwell, first published in England in 1945 ... these books have quite an appeal ... I have great difficulty mixing science and politics and we saw this occur with COVID, as that soon became more controversial as the months went by ... i still find the science a problem with the grief response or traumatic loss, having been trying to work through my own grief response for over 20 years, after losing my mother to a brain disorder, tonic clonic epilepsy... i then became disillusioned by therapuetic interventions with SSRi medication and Fluoxetine, and I wouldn´t regard them as anti-bereavement drugs particularly ... I gather the grief response is more an art than a science per se, as all interventions failed for me ... and I still haven´t found a complete solution ... I would add that the concept of ‘socially constructed gender’ is new to me, as I don´t watch the news nor am I in the education fields to know what is happening ... although just hearing the term for the first time gave me doubts that ‘socially constructed gender’ is 100% reliable terminology ...

I wouldn´t wish this pain on anyone ... i have also relocated to a foreign country of Spain for three years, and this also has a grieving aspect due to loss of home country ... homesickness has been quite bad, along with an anxiety disorder, homesickness is a path to a psychiatric hospital for us less emotionally robust people ... a big move ... and i have a major recent job loss too ... i am in quite some chaos.
@@wn9861 Where were you from originally?
@@Serraainc ... I'm from England ... although i moved across England for employment before moving to Barcelona three years ago ... I moved alone and my Spanish is very poor ...
I wanted to like this video many times. Social media is a threat to humanity and also a gift, since it allows me to have access to a conversation such as this.
