How on earth is this content free. Brilliant interview.

These interviews by Peter Robinson are the #1 reason for me to have a computer and an internet connection. Thoughtful and deep interviews are tremendously interesting , and Mr Robinson's interviews are the best of the best. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!

It has been a while. Glad to see Peter again.

Peter Robinson is a fantastic interviewer

My opinion on why the West stagnated: - Lost industry to foreign nations, which had hitherto fed off and nourished scientific and engineering advances, and provided a real reward for studying engineering and working blue collar jobs. - Overabundance of artificially cheap goods, care of zero wage foreign offshored industry, turning people into consumers rather than creators. - Government growing in size and influence, with regulation growing endlessly blocking technological advancement by default. - Socialist government policies, to offset the downtrodden former blue collar demographic, creating a permanent underclass and unaccountable elite, creating vast imbalances and giving the government more excuses to expand and crush entrepreneurship in the process.

14:30- the thing about China is that they are… Culturally and historically Chinese. They are not Europeans who are communists, they are China, a very different culture and history.

I always enjoy Peter’s insights and alternative takes. He really challenges us all to think. Thanks for interviewing him and sharing.

We didn't get flying cars, but at least we got information & great content like this with one click.

One of the most enlightening and mentally stirring conversations ever. If only a voting public would think these things through. Thank you for this.

Great interview! Thanks Peter and Peter.

Uncommon Knowledge one of the very few programs worth watching on the internet. Thought provoking and intellectually stimulatiing discussions with an array of fascinating guests and profound interviewing skills.Thank you.

Can we start asking Thiel new questions, please?

A poem… Peter Thiel brings to light, things that hide in plain sight

Excellent

Peter hasn’t been around for a while and I’m thrilled to be able to listen to his current thought! Thank you both.

It’s sort of sad that someone like Peter Thiel would never be elected to office. And he wouldn’t want to be. The guy is just so damn prescient.

As a civilization, our weakest point is our spiritual level of development, not lack of technology.

Peter is unbiased as far as I can tell. Most reporters and interviewers lack this trait.

Great to hear Carroll Quigley quoted at 22:45 by none other than Peter Theil, on the Hoover Institutes podcast! I can see the quote caught our good old presidential speech writer Peter Robinson by surprise when tied into the discussion of the California partisan divide. Quigleys sober look at American history, is of great concern to the foundational beliefs of modern American history as it is taught in public schools. If you want to further your knowledge in regards to American history, Hoover Institute actually produced a great fellow by the name of Antony Sutton, who wrote incredible works, greatly quoting Quigley throughout, that I suggest reading as soon as possible. He is a more condensed understanding of Quigley's 1000 page books such as Tragedy and Hope, focusing more on our foundational understanding of the architects who designed and profited from the second world war.

An intelligent and captivating discussion. Thank you, Peter and Peter.

these are great, Peter, they are just too short! would love to have them go 90-120 minutes if possible.

Another brilliant interview....why I love KZread.

Thank The Hoover Institute and Peter Robinson….YT censors🤮

Seriously fascinating interview. Thiel has a formidable intellect, with absolutely no pretence.

Thank you SO MUCH for this dialogue. This is therapy that money can not buy and I am SO grateful to you for this equal opportunity to learn from some of the greatest minds in our world. You are making waves Peter Robinson, as well as many of the great divergent thinkers you interview.

One of the most famous members of ole "PayPal mafia".. Absolutely brilliant guy

I'm sure its misspeak but Nuclear power plants are not "dual use". Bombs have pure fissile material (over 90%) while plants only have around 4%.

Another banger!! Thanks so much for the content!!

Hi Peters. Good to see you two again.😘

"We were promised flying cars and all we got was a 140 characters" 🤣

Was really looking forward to Peter Thiel coming on the show again.

Thank you so much for this!

Peter I always enjoy your interviews. Another great one.

OK, but when Peter Thiel talks about policing keystrokes, that is mass surveillance.

he gives me hope

new Peter Thiel video - like from the first second. The man literally lives in the future

Peter Robinson always has very thought-out, in-depth interviews.

It's an interesting idea I haven't heard before that everyone lived under the fear of nuclear annihilation for so long that now we are afraid to create new technologies. I suppose one counter argument to that, that just occurred to me would be the biolabs that are still creating new diseases. That's a pretty obvious technology that can easily be used as a weapon that we are still progressing.

I love Theil his insights are always worth hearing. Thank you Hoover!

Fantastic talk. Thank you!

Thank you for your great interviews Peter

Thank you, great interview

Hoover getting more hip with Star Wars references in its titles.

That was great. Thanks.

"Greetings Earthlings", Peter Thiel

I appreciate his views on college

Very interesting interview!

Thank you gentlemen!

Yes yes yes, thank you

I could not have agreed with Peter more.

Brilliant⭐️

Excellent thank you

What an interesting and intelligent conversation. I feel 1% smarter..

Sorry, but maybe ask him something new, this is a replica of his old interview(s)

Thought provoking, well done.

What is the paper mentioned at 38:14?

one interesting thing to me is its hard to tell exactly the limits of the application of a technology, and which ones will sort of run into a physical limitation versus which techs are poised for a leap in sophistication. batterys are a recent example, they have enabled smaller and smaller tech devices, which enabled entirely new products, etc. The generational impact issue is completely related to high housing prices in desirable locations. of course if young generation cant afford property, they cant/wont build the same wealth as their parents (unless they inherit it).

Excellent discussion

thanks for the video

Lol "by the time this airs we'll know (if Blake masters has won)"... it's two days after the election and we still don't know and may not for some time!

God Bless Peter Thiel.

More Thiel videos please

Mr. Thiel, good thoughts. I'll make anything you wish to build, fast. look me up. Thank you for the reason and ideas.

Great to see this vid get so many views and deserves many more likes. Those (Like Henry Rowen) who decided that somehow China will become a Democracy (by 2015 :):) are either feeling a bit daft or pleased their bs lasted another 25 years. Personally, I feel it's the latter. I don't think they were that thick. I don't remember seeing reports that China said anything like that would happen. We thought this would happen and maybe that that too.. I don't think so. It was a fifty year plan, since Nixon & Co.

Thiel is absolutely of “The Machine”

Hi Hoover Institution- how come you guys drop new videos and youtube does not immediately alert me. I get junk notification, but your brilliant work?

Peter is incredibly smart - an obvious statement. I really like him !

TL:DR Sugestion. Place some Bookmarks to make it more appealing

Nice dialogue

Glad this power is used for good

We were promised flying cars, what we got were ultra cheap ultra safe flights from NY to LA that literally anyone could afford. We got open heart surgery on an out-patient basis. We got bigger, quieter, safer, cleaner homes. We got the internet, infinite information the ability to communicate with anyone anytime anywhere. Flying cars exist, they are called helicoptors, and the are very expensive to maintain because when you put something in the air, the oversight requirements go up 100x. And what is the advantage of being in the air?

Peter Thiel needs to educate the republican leadership

decided:subscribed

If capitalism is an expression of free will and the ability to navigate between Armageddon and the Antichrist, then which systems of financial expression are going to lead one way or another? If all companies become public and are owned by one corporation you get one anticompetitive regime. If all companies are private and ownership is diverse you have the risk of a rogue innovator. That said, I know which one has more counterbalances.

I love the analogy of the Republican party, the Star Wars rag tag group, you got Princess Leah, CHewbacca, Hans Solo, and C3PO's types, that are a rebel alliance, but are diverse.... love that and it's so true! Gonna steal that one.

He emerges

Peter Thiel and Steven Pinker seem to be on opposite sides as to wether we are making progress. I get the feeling Thiel is starting from how he wants things to be and builds a philosophy from there.

America needs to be MORE than California.

Peter is an elite thinker

Peter is the man

He is one of my favorite “thinkers” and has invested his money in Blake Masters in Arizona election. I guess this was taped before any of this happened.

He looks younger… again.

What happened? The private sector became emperor - that’s what happened.

I feel Thiel

You need to talk with Perer Zeihan

❤

Thiel is the closest thing to a real live vampire, don’t insult the rebels like that.

Who says we have to “beat” China or they’ll “beat” us ? The current and future success of everyone now depends on interdependent relationships that benefit all parties. My iPhone is designed here but made there; we need them to buy our T bonds and they need the US dollar, AND our economy which backs it, to stay viable. Robinson’s whole premise here is obsolete and zero-sum thinking that can only end in failure given the globalized tech-empowered world we have NOW, which isn’t going away, no matter what your political attitude.

Can Peter Thiel save Germany from the people trying to destroy it?

This is reason.

"Agenté provacuteur"

The future of governance ideology is won by that which harnesses technology most astutely. Will the wanton use of technology of one country, Machiavellian in history, allow them to come to ascendancy but eventually become their downfall, at the expense of humanity?

21:10

Advanced technologies are being withheld from the people.

By the time this airs we'll know the outcome in Arizona..... Oh my sweet summer child....

Maybe China saw what was happening in the western Democracies and saw that against their national interest.

33:30 "True liberalism has never been tried" In fact true liberalism has been tried and worked quite well. We stopped enforcing the law due to the advent of mass psychology (propaganda), which is now disintegrating as we face a larger world where information is radically more free and porous

Pete needs to go the Bezos route, get on TRT and start a space program

First.

the greatest americans i see weren't born in america. peter is one of them.

We dont know the answer because of the way the voting is run in Arizona , the republicans were not in charge of correcting the voting irregularities
