That exchange on "love" at the end of this excellent interview was very enlightening. I thought Ben's position, Respect vs. Love added great clarity to these often overused (to the point of triteness) terms. Another great discussion.
In my opinion, your guest Ben Shapiro conducted himself quite admirably. He was knowledgeable, well informed and spoken, and his behavior was very even keeled/tempered. Thank for inviting him on to your show.
The fact that Lex Friedman still leaves timestamps is crazy to me. He still is about his audience and not putting them behind sponsors opinions/wants and needs.

@@loko8045 I am not particularly knowledgeable about Judaism from a religious point of view, and would certainly criticize much of its doctrines and practices. That being said, as with any group, there is much more to it than a singular issue. We can criticize one aspect while not shunning the broader group outright. Every community has its problems, and these discussions help to work towards a better world for people of every perspective.
Great interview. You are both wise beyond your years. I'm twice your age yet marvel at your intellect and learned much which reminds me of how much I don't know. The only critique I have is that compared to the vast majority of interviews I have seen with his other guests there was a subtle yet hard to describe under tone of negativity. I think the most obvious thing I can think of is the number of times Lex gratuitously said he "disagreed" with Shiparo on matters of subjective belief...that coupled with his light hearted condescension. Unlike his interview with, say..Joe Rogan, you don't get the feeling that the two went out for a few beers after the interview. Though minor at best it is pretty atypical of Lex which is why it was noticeable at all. Other than that it was an excellent interview.

To me he sounded like he might have been under the influence during the interview, but I don't know I have wondered that about a few people that have interviewed Ben Shapiro. It's just because Lex's thinking seems slow, vague and idealistic, like a stoned person, not quick, clear and concise, in my opinion.

You can't have an 'authentic' conversation if the host, Lex, is completely clueless about who he is interviewing. Shapiro lies to his face for 2 hours with self benefiting bullshit, but because Lex is a lazy attention seeker like most podcast hosts instead of someone who actually takes time to learn about his guests so he can call them out, he lets Shapiro get away with everything. So as a viewer you have no fucking clue what to take from a conversation where you cant vouch for someone's honesty. A Lex Friedman watcher who is unfamiliar with Ben Shapiro will at best not come away with anything from this interview, and at worst be horribly misinformed about a dangerous far right #1 among domestic terrorist show host.

Thank you for this interview. I have always found it very difficult to listen the Ben Shapiro, partially because he generally talks at warp speed and anytime I have heard him speak he has an unpleasantly sharp edge in his voice that is somewhat caustic. You managed to get him to show a softer side, he is talking to you instead of talking at you. Though there are many things I would disagree with Ben Shapiro about, I was for the first time able to hear him. You are an excellent interviewer with the gift of putting your guest so at ease that they respond with what seems to be honest answers. Thank you for what you are doing. One of the biggest problems we face in a world of divisive sound bites and slanted commentators is we never actually hear what the other side has to say in a non- combative manner.
@bigpapi6688

It’s very similar with Ben on Rogan’s podcast. He’s been on there and shown his softer side as you described it. I think generally from what I can tell he views his show and public appearances as a competition of sorts, and that’s where the edge comes in (considering how he got his start in his career as more or less a professional debater), but on podcasts he’s much more relaxed and lighthearted. Joe’s really good at getting that side of him, if you enjoyed this one I’d recommend Rogan’s episodes with him. Makes him look like a fellow human instead of a political figure

Definitely don't agree with Ben on everything, that said huge thanks for sharing your views and helping me see more sides.

I agree I just wish Lex Fridman, Joe Rogan, or any sort of these other "conversation" podcasters would have on just one mainstream liberal. Their liberals are either the most extreme economic populists like Noam Chomsky or Bernie Sanders, or Joe Manchin-esque liberals. Routinely they invite on every mainstream conservative commentator under the sun to give commentary on every modern social wedge issue but will NEVER invite on a progressive counterpart to do the same.

@@appleproduct1524 I have seen many mainstream liberals on both podcasts you mentioned as well as many others. What specific people are you wanting them to have on? As an aside, do you realize that your average liberal talking head doesn’t want to go on “neutral” shows? I have seen many routinely turn down offers / pronounce they would not want to go on such shows. They are much happier to stay in their echo chambers. Conservatives have been much more willing to do these types of interviews for the last several years.

@@appleproduct1524 Like who? I've seen Jimmy Dore, Kyle Kalinski, Abby Martin, Destiny, and a number of lefty reporter types even from NYT or wherever who's faces are there but names escaping me atm, etc etc. The Adam ruins everything guy even went on jre one time arguing a very progressive stance on Trans Rights, that didn't even make sense. Can you give some example names of who you think are missing? And what's more, are they the type that would even actually turn up if given the option? Last time I know of of a CNN guy going on JRE, after basically demanding a spot for opportunity to "balance the conversation and debunk Joe in front of his own audience", the guy then actually just ended up retracting all kinds of lies his people had been pushing when challenged with actual facts and logic, but then turned around again after the show and claimed he was just "afraid for his safety" from Joe and didn't mean any of the true things he said while there. As far as I can tell, the modern "Progressive" viewpoints just don't yend to hold up to any scrutiny, so folks pushing it tend to resort to censorship of their opposition, offer to go on but cancel behind the scenes while claiming the contrary happened, or have been represented but aren't recognized by people making claims like yours, or have been represented but just didn't end up having anything as memorable or sensible to say. That doesn't mean the conservative types never say anything stupid on these shows. Matt Walsh, Steven Crowder, Milo, tons of "right" types have gotten backed into a corner. The difference seems to me that they are more likely to turn up, have a good faith conversation, and say memorable stuff even if they failed to defend their positions adequately. Also hit pieces tend to come out whenever these guys host someone the progressive and/or establishment left don't like, but they ignore the fact that they also host lefties all the time. So again, what progressives are not represented that will actually turn up and have a good faith conversation that hasn't been on already? Not rhetorical, I'd really like to know what I'm supposedly missing out on.

What was and is missing in/about the Ye conversation is an obvious point IMO: Obvious a random person of "certain demographic" is almost certainly not part of some collusion to exploit others along the lines of ethnicity or religion for personal power and wealth. Saying so is a gross category error that's dangerous to all involved, and has a well known ugly history. However that doesn't mean that there aren't or haven't been people of "certain demographic" that DO/DID collude or conspire along the lines of shared ethnicity and religion against others, today or historically. Labeling all accusations of such as pure lunacy and/or bigotry, and hiding behind "worst event in the 20th century" (even if the apprehension is well warranted and totally understandable) does seem to likely be protecting individuals and almost certainly even some institutions that should not be protected and allowed to continue abuses by staying in protective shrouds of darkness and special protections. Note that I'm not pointing any specific fingers here as I lack enough information to do so accurately, but I could make some guesses that probably wouldn't be allowed to remain visible in the comments, assuming I was willing to guess aloud without being certain, which I am not despite estimating the probability of accuracy to be fairly high. Edit/PS: This is obviously not the cause of disproportionate success though, which appears to be a culture that promotes a work ethic and family structure that's conducive to long term success. Most humans don't seem to be able to handle nuance.

And that's why China deployed a weapon on our youth, TikTok. Millions of kids holding in the highest regard other TikTokker's occupied and obsessed with the same dances and challenges instead of being occupied with true role models, mavericks and trail blazers that give us new directions and idea to think about and inspire us. Think how evil genius on behalf of China TikTok really is... what kid would want to be a scientist or leader in politics when they see other kids seemingly being stars that millions adore. China made TikTok to steal our youth's attention and brain power we need for America's future, the data mining was always just the icing on top. They want our kids to grow up stupid knowing they got us with beat on kids taking education seriously, so TikTok was deployed to keep as many American kids brains occupied with dances and challenges over education. Evil genius idea, and it's working.
The strangest thing is I was able to remember being places when I was one year old. Not much but a few instances that blew my parents minds. But I remember it as a silent video type of memory. Maybe because I wasn’t fully aware of what language was and how to comprehend it.

This is the sign of high emotional and intellectual intelligence. I am amazed at how many on the left speak about their superior intellect, yet never leave the cocoon of their echo chambers. The one thing that will destroy this nation is the point at which we are not able to speak and attempt to understand one another, reaching compromise, and having debates in the public space while feeling safe enough to share differing opinions. I fear we are not able to do those things anymore on a broad scale. This breaks my heart, because I have reached out and spoken to street protestors for abolishing rights, I hold dear. I try to understand their viewpoint and speak to them with love and kindness. I hug them when I have to leave and shake their hands. I tell them thank you for being brave and courageous enough to protest in such a public place, and for exercising their rights which I served to protect. We have too often forgotten that the core value of our nation is the freedom to have discourse amongst ourselves while respecting each other's opinions. I certainly hope for a time when we can regain that freedom. Thank you, for sharing that you are open to the opinions of others. This is what will heal the rift amongst us, not the visceral and damaging rhetoric occurring on both sides of the aisle.

@@EphemeralOnlooker yeah, Ben does always talk like this.
This was absolutely fantastic. The world needs more of this. Thank you Lex and Ben
There is no perfect balance 22:43. its always fluctuating 40/50 50/40. Relax. The remainder doesn't matter!
I disagree with ben on most political issues, but I enjoy listening to people i disagree with and trying to see where we have common ground. This was a very interesting interview.
I'm four minutes in, and I'm thinking 1) I love Lex, and he is the best podcast host by far rn, and 2) Ben is talking at a normal speed. Wow.

@@iTzDeyo this would be a 24 hour podcast. Ben is being respectful by speaking at a normal speed so the podcast will last at normal time.

Lex's interviews are a masterclass in how to challenge and push back on someone's beliefs without being adversarial.

The videos never show but I’ve always wondered. Are they sitting face to face or are the guests sitting in remote locations holding the interview over air?

Lex interviews in his studio with at least 3 cameras. You may even notice that he and his guests have the same microphone setup, etc.

Also of note. I've never heard Lex speak of his financial means, but he has hinted at it, describing himself as happy and wanting for nothing, no need for listeners to donate etc. I am guessing he doesn't need to travel or anything to still get great guests. I'm sure he must pick up all expenses and great accommodations, basically a free vacation. Not only that, I'm sure his guests find it an honor to be on his very popular podcast. You know you're a 'somebody' when Lex gives you an invite, lol.
Hey man dont worry your not the only one who uses social media to spread love.
