Jimmy's comments about depression are interesting and nuanced. So it's a pity that when it comes to "men's issues" he falls back to lazy mainstream media narratives. Andrew Tate as "Top G" saw what happened to Peterson and weaponised it, becoming "a 14 year olds idea of masculinity". But I've also seen Andrew Tate "the man" having conversations with multiple hostile feminists and even porn stars, and by the end of the conversation they are mostly agreeing with what he says. There is a difference.

Jimmy Carr preaches that young men should "live in real life".. and then without pausing for breath he says.. "young men are obsessed by video games". This statement tells you that Jimmy Carr does not live in "real life" because that statement is such a broad generalisation that it simply cannot be (and is not) factually true in "real life". Jimmy Carr is as out of touch as any other millionaire. His arrogant stance of claiming to have the answers to other peoples mental health struggles is troubling and embarrassing. Shut up Jimmy. Thanks in advance 👍

The chemical imbalance theory of depression has been scientifically proven to be wrong in the last few years. The is no evidence of a link between depression and serotonin deficiency or anything of the sort. This view is a myth created by pharmaceutical companies. Don't believe me, believe the psychiatrists who have shown this to be the case. I would expect nonsense like this to be challenged on this podcast.

Well, to be fair, I don't think the guests get that much bigger than Jimmy, do you? I mean, if you got the Prime Minister on, or the Archbishop of Canterbury - or the Princess of Wales - I don't really think I would think they were "bigger" than Jimmy. Now if you got Xi Jin Pin or, if we could go back in time, Nelson Mandela - now they ARE bigger. Probably so is Raul Castro or Bill Gates. But anyone who's managed to get Jimmy on, should already consider themselves a success ....

I agree about his views on Tate. But he is clearly not a good-natured person, speaking in general. Jokingly saying that Romani's being systematically mordered and experimented on in WW2 was "a good thing"? And, no, it's not "just a joke". Anyone who says that doesn't actually understand how comedians work. Not saying he legit thinks what happened in WW2 was good per say. But he's certainly supportive of the current anti-Romani culture and even gnocldaI tendencies of Europeans today. Not to mention he has also been accussed of entering womens' changing rooms and staying there for no reason other than to enjoy the view. Everything about him rubs me the wrong way, even if he makes some good points.

Jimmy Carr is one of the funniest comedians of all time. But it is times like this when even the funniest people out there get serious when you realize the importance of something. That's what I like about him. He knows when there is a serious issue and gets right to addressing it.

Jimmy Carr is the intelligent comedian Russell Brand wishes he was. And for all of Jimmy Carr's rude, racy, raunchy, and politically incorrect humor, Jimmy isn't out here full of hate, or prejudice, or trying to actually punch down - unlike some comedians out here, including ones I previously respected. When it comes to Jimmy Carr, it really is JUST A JOKE. And the more I hear him speak in interviews like this, the more fond of him I grow as person - as does my respect for him.

I consider myself "woke" - or as we were being called five years ago, a "social justice warrior" - both of which I wear as a badge of honor. But even being a woke social justice warrior toggaF who despises bigotry and misogyny, I love those kinds of jokes... as long as there's no actual animosity behind the words.

What happened when every mate that was supposed to call to go out, loved video games so much that they never made the call? I think you know...

The solution to it it to set a limit for it (let's say 1 hr a day) and then be the person that makes the call. When you all put it on your mates to make that call to go out and socialize, it's just a matter of time before you become a game addict with a good excuse. If you are not one, already...

Respect bro. I hope youre well . Nice comment you wrote.

Great video, really appreciated the level of directness and it was exactly what I needed to hear today. The world is a pretty brutal place, we fundamentally need each other to survive and if we're not equipping our kids with not only the tools to function in life but also the wisdom that going it alone isn't the answer then we're doing them a massive disservice. I think that is one of the root causes of where we are at the moment societally, the current generation of young adults have not been given the tools and wisdom to be able to function. I especially thought the comment about "14 year olds used to be baby sitters but now they need baby sitters" was excellent and tragically true. Also agree with the fact that becoming a parent is like starting a completely new life, it's amazing but I'm a completely different person now! Thanks for sharing, this message needs to sink in for more people.

Honestly, gotta admit that I was expecting a different type of video reading the title. Very glad that it turned out to be a very reflected and smart conversation, I enjoyed it a lot!

this was one of the best yet jimmy is brilliant.

I loved how Jimmy explained the issues that kids are experiencing, including myself (a 26 year old kid lol) who are using KZread to learn how to do things such as shaving. We should be learning these tasks through our Fathers, how to tie a tie correctly, change tyres, build etc. My Father is an alcoholic narcissist, he taught me how to tie my shoe laces so I'll give him props for that... My son just turned 1, I've been self teaching all the "man" stuff (along with lots of teachings from my Father in law) and I am excited to teach my son everything I know. Should there be things I don't know, then heck we'll both watch KZread together and bond through laughter and learning.

Incredibly powerful piece! I never thought I'd hear such logic and clarity from Jimmy Carr

Jimmy Carr is such a fluent speaker with interesting insights. Sadly not that many people know this side of him - it's not the first talk I've seen him being part of, that was a great listen. Amazing stuff.

Jimmy's analysis of where we are today is spot on. I think kids should always be given the time to be kids, to be carefree and to play. That being said, we also need to acknowledge that your kid doesn't go to bed as a child one night, then wake up as an adult. Turning 18 might mean that they're legally an adult, but becoming an adult is a process that starts before 18 and crucially, continues after they are 18. If we're not giving them responsibilities, testing their capabilities and their limits and trusting them with at least some decisions, then they are not going to learn. If you're not actively parenting them and getting involved in their life, they will get their influences elsewhere and from people who are less than ideal as role models. Maybe the most important starting point is to ask ourselves how we felt as kids? How did our parents do? Can I apply the good parenting skills my mum and dad had, and make sure I pass that on to my kids? Equally, can I also use my experience of any negative aspects of their parenting as examples of what not to do? Even the best parents make mistakes, but using them to do better is how we all become better.

This man is spot on! Wow! I’m sitting here, at 8am, on a balcony watching the sunrise and this video pops up. Just marvellous 🤩

that was a great point about sadness vs depression.

Yup. Like a ankle sprain and a badly broken leg . No comparison. And sadness and unhappiness can be improved , clinical depression is extremely diffucult to treat if it's biological and not circumstancial

I listened for the first minute and YES! I’m so glad to hear someone influential talking like this and taking the action to actually correct the claim ”depression is thinking yourself too much”! Thinking yourself too much is a syptom of depression (illness), not the reason.

Very insightful. I’ve always enjoyed Jimmy Carrs comedy but I’ve never seen him be so serious and insightful. He’s spot on with everything he said.

Common knowledge, taking the obvious for granted and being aware of the assumptions that we all agree on, that's one thing - but then also having the intelligence to organise and understand it, talk about it's implications and being able to articulate it, back it up and then transmit it to someone else. That's a real skill.

That explanation by Jimmy of sadness vs depression, of being sad because things aren’t going like we liked vs serotonin imbalance… a few weeks ago I went to my brothers for the weekend and forgot my antidepressants, on the second day without them I was catching myself almost crying from time to time for no reason (well, there was, imbalance), just like I was before starting them. Yeah, that explanation really hit home.

The problem is not with Tate, but with the reaction to him. Everything said in relation to Tate is about him and how he says things, rather than addressing the things he actually says. The idiocy of ad hominem is so prevalent in society, that no one seems to notice when it is all about the person and not the subject matter. If Hitler said the sky was blue, the fact that he was an abhorrent tyrant does not change the fact that the sky is indeed blue. As for him being a man; I doubt that many of his detractors could survive three months of solitary confinement in a Romanian prison

Teach them partners are not commodities

He's bang on about the shift in society. You can learn to shave and tie a tie from someone on TikTok. We used to leave our 5 yr old kids with a 14 yr old nephew/niece/neighbour, etc. Now we need to get babysitters for our 14 yr old kids. A huge shift has changed in the growth of our youth. They are so fixated on digital content, they are missing out on the fundamentals of growing up. And you could do all the right things by your own children. But the mob-movement of all the other kids around your kids, could still influence your kids to become like them. When I look ahead, I think of things like "I want to live in a cul-de-sac where I get along with all the parents, we have all similar age of kids, and we work together to get them out of the house.". But that's a fantasy nowadays.

@@NoisyHill_ That information about mental health can be manipulated, construed or just blatantly lied about on TikTok. Anybody can make a video on TikTok about anything.. that's the point being made. So that information that is supposed to be helpful to teenagers, turns out to be harmful, instead of actually seeing a professional about it. We're still in the infancy stage of being in a world totally online all the time , and we still don't know what those consequences are to a human being long term. I see the positives in it, but Ít's obviously taken a toll on society as a whole. I actually feel more disconnected than I did before it all took off even though it's easier than ever to contact someone. People that are born into social media and being online from birth... I wonder what that's doing to kids growing up when they don't have basic human social interaction skills for the real world.

Absolute whiplash of a clip. I agree 100% with about 50% of his points and think rest is nonsense. Video games can be a proxy for career for sure. I've made my days feel less pointless by playing wow while unemployed. Video games can also conjure genuine emotions and reveal fundamental truths and wisdom about what it means to be a person and the mysteries of the universe. I understand he is making a point but dismissing video games in it's entirety because of wow, cod, candy crush or raid shadow legends is like dismissing Citizen Kane or Shawshank or whatever because reality TV exists. Anyway. The idea of wealth having replaced heavin is profound and may have changed my outlook on life forever if only a little bit. Thank you for your time! Peace!

That’s a great line about 14yr olds and babysitting, I used to babysit for neighbours in the 70s, but nowadays you wouldn’t dream of asking a neighbour’s 14yr old to do the same, for many many obvious reasons. Neighbourly networks of trust and responsibility have gone. People’s families now no longer live in the same streets for generations, because of having to move away because of lack of work. I for example now live over 300 miles away from my octogenarian parents.

Situational depression is a thing and just because it has a obvious trigger doesn't mean it's not a mental illness. Things can be understandable and still be chronic. Like is someone was abused for a decade in childhood severely, has a long history with sexual abuse and d/a relationships has a substance abuse problem and is homeless and stuff no one would be surprised they are depressed, and yes prob if they weren't homeless and poor and had suffered abuse and bereavement they prob wouldn't be depressed but if they are self harming and suicidal and have attempted before, yes it is still classed as depression, just as a example
