    443. The Brutal Reality of the Middle East | Mosab Hassan Yousef

    443. The Brutal Reality of the Middle East | Mosab Hassan Yousef

    Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down in person with Mosab Hassan Yousef. They discuss the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, the chaos created by Yasser Arafat, how Palestine has globalized their radical cause, Mosabs time as a prisoner, what set him free, and the far-from-paved road going forward.

    Mosab Hassan Yousef (born in 1978) is a Palestinian ex-militant who defected to Israel in 1997 where he worked as an undercover agent for the Shin Bet until he moved to the United States in 2007. Yousef was considered the Shin Bet's most reliable source in the Hamas leadership, earning himself the nickname "The Green Prince.” The intelligence he supplied to Israel led to the exposure of many Hamas cells, as well as the prevention of dozens of suicide bombings and assassination attempts on Jews. Yousef's father is Sheikh Hassan Yousef, a co-founder of Hamas.

    442. BILL C-63 - Everything You Need to Know | Bruce Pardy & Konstantin Kisin

    442. BILL C-63 - Everything You Need to Know | Bruce Pardy & Konstantin Kisin

    Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down in-person with Canadian lawyer Bruce Pardy and podcaster Konstantin Kisin. They discuss Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Bill C-63 (aka The Online Harms Act), what powers it gives to the government, what rights it strips from citizens, and why even Americans should be concerned.

    Bruce Pardy is executive director of Rights Probe, a law and liberty thinktank, and professor of law at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. He is a lawyer, academic, columnist, and outspoken critic of the illiberal managerial state, fighting at the front lines of the culture war inside the law. Bruce writes for the National Post, Epoch Times, and the Brownstone Institute, among others, and serves as senior fellow at the Fraser Institute, the Macdonald-Laurier Institute, and the Frontier Centre for Public Policy. He has taught at law schools in Canada, the United States and New Zealand, practiced civil litigation in Toronto, and served as adjudicator and mediator on the Ontario Environmental Tribunal. The legal ground, Bruce has written, is shifting beneath our feet. The individual is losing to the collective. An ever-expanding bureaucracy regulates life from cradle to grave, including private behavior and speech, in the name of common good. The law has become discretionary, arbitrary, and unequal. The end of Western liberal civilization, as we have known it, is conceivable.

    Konstantin Kisin is a Russian-British satirist, social commentator, and co-host of the TRIGGERnometry Youtube show. He is also the author of “An Immigrant's Love Letter to the West,” a Sunday Times bestseller. He has written for several publications, including Quillette, The Spectator, The Daily Telegraph, and Standpoint, on issues relating to tech censorship, woke culture, comedy, and other topics, but he currently publishes articles on his popular Substack. Kisin made headlines in 2018 when he refused to sign a "safe space contract" to perform comedy at a British college and again in 2023 when he participated in an Oxford Union debate on the motion of "This House Believes Woke Culture Has Gone Too Far." His speech at the debate received viral attention and has been seen by over 100 million people around the world.

    440. Looking Back on the Campaign, and Forward for the Country | Vivek Ramaswamy

    440. Looking Back on the Campaign, and Forward for the Country | Vivek Ramaswamy

    Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down with 2024 presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy to discuss the recent suspension of his campaign, how he fought the traditional media’s best advances against him, who he is endorsing now, and the American values he seeks to defend going forward.

    Vivek Ramaswamy is an entrepreneur, author, and political activist. Vivek has been making headlines since announcing his candidacy for the 2024 presidential election, running on a platform in part to dismantle the expansive and corrupt bureaucracy that has seeped into nearly all facets of American government. Prior to this, Ramaswamy was the founder and CEO of the biopharmaceutical company Roivant Sciences. Leaving in 2021, he published “Woke, Inc.: Inside Corporate America's Social Justice Scam.” In 2022, he co-founded Strive Asset Management with Anson Frericks, which focuses on an alternative to the now-pushed ESG investment framework. That same year Ramaswamy published “Nation of Victims: Identity Politics, the Death of Merit, and the Path Back to Excellence”
    and has since been deemed one of the “Intellectual Godfathers of the anti-woke movement.”

    439. Microplastics, Global Greening, & the Dangers of Radical Alarmism | Dr. Patrick Moore

    439. Microplastics, Global Greening, & the Dangers of Radical Alarmism | Dr. Patrick Moore

    Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down with industry consultant, science activist, and past president of Greenpeace Canada (1971 to 1986), Dr. Patrick Moore. They discuss his time in Greenpeace, the historic timeline of global ice ages and climate change, the clear lies being peddled to promote alarmism, and how the woke left manipulates science (and scientists) to promote a falsely perceived and politically incentivized future catastrophe.

    Dr. Patrick Moore has been a leader in the international environmental field for more than 45 years. He is a co-founder of Greenpeace and served for nine years as President of Greenpeace Canada and seven years as a Director of Greenpeace International. As the leader of many campaigns Dr. Moore was a driving force shaping policy and direction for 15 years while Greenpeace became the world's largest environmental activist organization.

    In recent years, Dr. Moore has been focused on the promotion of sustainability and consensus building among competing concerns. He was a member of the British Columbia government-appointed Round Table on the Environment and Economy from 1990 - 1994. In 1990, Dr. Moore founded and chaired the BC Carbon Project, a group that worked to develop a common understanding of climate change.

    In 2021 Dr. Moore published "Fake Invisible Catastrophes and Threats of Doom" exposing the fake news and fake science around 11 claims of disaster including climate change, coral reefs, polar bears, plastic, nuclear energy, and more.

    438. Aboutness, Secular vs. Religious Ethics, & Plato’s Aviary | Dr. Daniel Dennett

    438. Aboutness, Secular vs. Religious Ethics, & Plato’s Aviary | Dr. Daniel Dennett

    Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down with writer, philosopher, and cognitive scientist Dr. Daniel Dennett. They discuss the concepts of aboutness, intention, and the highest good as they relate to the religious and secular worlds, the establishment of trust and ethics outside of transcendent presupposition, and the loss of academic freedom at the misapprehension of postmodernism.

    Dr. Daniel Dennett is an American philosopher, writer, and cognitive scientist. He has published dozens of books, such as Consciousness Explained (1992), Darwin's Dangerous Idea: Evolution and the Meanings of Life (1996), and Breaking the Spell: Religion as Natural Phenomena (2007).

Free speech conversation with Dr Pardy and Konstatin

Wow what a great conversation and discussion on what it means to have “free speech” and the importance legislation has eliminating our liberty based on speech control.

Talk less

Peterson sets up a question for 10 minute then the quest answers with a sentence or two. Rinse. Repeat. That’s the show. The guest doesn’t need to be there.

Dr. Patrick Moore Ep 439, informative, entertaining but…

Dr. Moore's narrative on climate change was enlightening, providing a deeper understanding of the Earth's developmental epochs. I agree and enjoy the phrase "a tempest in a teapot," which perfectly captures the exaggerated nature of the situation. I fully support the use of plastic in the medical field with no reservations. This game is a total game-changer. Among the topics that I have some disagreement with, the normalization of plastic used in the food and beverage industry stands out, as it perpetuates harmful waste.  The plastic enclosures, in certain instances, can foster the growth of bacteria, and the chemicals present in the food may or may not pose a threat to our well-being.  It's all about the dosage - too much can turn anything into a poison.

It is commonly understood that plastic waste breaks down into countless small particles. In recent studies they have discovered traces of plastic particles in both human and animal body tissue. The impact of plastic material on human health is still uncertain and requires further research.  It's difficult for me to comprehend Dr. Moore’s assertion that masses of plastic, varying from the size of pallets to nanoparticles, possess only positive attributes with no negative consequences. In "Flotsametrics", Curtis Ebbesmeyer provides an engaging and informative study of ocean trash.  This is trash in the ocean he could see. Although a micro or nanoplastic may not be visible to the naked eye, it is a stretch to argue that plastic flotsam does not exist simply because of poor results from an online photo search.

I spent a significant portion of my career researching and developing semiconductors. The human eye cannot perceive the intricate details of an integrated circuit or its material composition. Even an integrated circuit’s manufacturing cycle incorporates materials that are invisible, yet they are there and have an impact. The danger lies in the fact that these undetectable materials can be deadly to humans, especially if they go unnoticed. I wonder if the same holds true for the particles that are so tiny; they appear to be nonexistent.
