Hey Chris, just wanted to say its such a good move to warm people up with clips before instead of after the podcast. Something Joe could learn from. (although I don't think he cares haha). Thank you so much for being such a wellrounded and intelligent man. Truly inspiring ❤

I was an atheist from the start and still am. I've consumed about 500 hours of Sam Harris content first, then started listening to Jordan Peterson. Harris taught me how to notice and uderstand my emotions and how to be happy with the present moment. Peterson taught me what my long-term priorities and needs are and helped me understand how to live in a way that is more productive to society. Listening to Harris was intelectualy stimulating, but did not really impact my life in a big way, other than making me a bit more happy in general. Listening to Peterson completely transformed the way I live and actualy "changed my life", making me a better person in all aspects of life.

Sam was my gateway into bettering my life about six years ago where he taught me to become more spiritual and subsequently spend hundreds of hours meditating. This opened my mind to the possibility of a more meaningful and purposeful life by changing my orientation to it. I then found Peterson where I spent hundreds of hours consuming his content and seeing him live, twice, and feel the development I made by listening to Sam and through meditation allowed me to deeply hear Petersons message and change the way I live my life, not just the way I feel about my life. I’ve woken up with the explicit goal of bettering myself for the sake of my future and those around me for several years now, thanks to these intellectual titans.

After a few weeks of tuning into the quiet (through Sam's wisdom and accumulated knowledge) so much of Peterson's deep work and analysis started to resonate. Both intellectuals are, in many ways, two sides of some same coin. As Peterson swims beneath, Harris gives the hefty anchor with which to ground oneself among the lofty tides of self- inquiry.

Real psychology can take many forms in the world. The psychology that occupies a place inside of many (not all) religions is the same psychology needed to unite a man's understanding of everything he knows and infers from the world, including all scientific thought. There is a cohesive realty that exists above all our 'sciences' and also above philosophy and art and religion, etc... These divisions are artificial, because the study of man from the viewpoint of his real possibility of inner change, ie. from real Psychology, is the oldest & most relevant science to us. A man can begin to see this more cohesive reality, and this is in reality what everyone is striving for. All to say that religions are not in themselves a psychology, no - but sometimes religions may contain something inside of them that's very different & can reach a man and begin to change the very character of his inner world & how he is able to see and understand himself and the outer world.

Great insight at the end in speaking of the great need for institutions and media outlets that we can trust post Covid, and that we are just not going to get there with podcasts and newsletters. Now to commenters and listeners, what about the action items?

Both Sam, and Jordan is hard not to like very much! Seems both like two really good guys! Could listen to them both for hours.

All three of these men have had such a wonderful effect on my life and mind. Differences have only accelerated my growth. Thank you!

I truly 🙏🏻 wish and hope Sam Harris to be back and/or more present. He brings a different yet important aspect and perceptions of life. He’s incredibly sensitive, most probably why he chose to disconnect from the “wild west” of social internet media. And truly wish JBP to demonstrate more empathy/compassion to SH.

Love Sam Harris' precise conversation on intellectual topics! Always learning something new when listening to his podcast :)

I started out as a Hitchens fan by watching his debates in the early 2010's, and that's how I came across Sam Harris. I have been a fan of his cool articulate intellect ever since. I discovered Jordan Peterson much later, about 2015, just as he was publishing his Maps and Meanings Lectures on KZread and the beginnings of his Bill c-16 issues were taking place. I am big fans of them both, I even remember posting an email to Sam's socials saying something along the lines of "you and Jordan Peterson should have a discussion, about literally any topic, I'm sure it will be fascinating" Both Sam and Jordan had done podcasts with Joe (another podcaster I got turned on to because of Sam, and Graham Hancock) immediately before they had their first chat, which turned out to be a bit of a misfire. As much as they see themselves as different from each other, and they are to be sure, I see them as being very similar too. like they are both trying to say the same thing, but using a different dialect. Sam's background as a neuroscientist gives his ideas a kind of 'outside in' perspective, like he is trying to understand consciousness by studying the mind externally, like trying to study the brain to better understand consciousness and thinking in terms of neurons and brain regions etc. whereas Jordan being a Psychologist seems to come at the same problem from a kind of 'inside out' perspective. ie he trying to study consciousness to better understand the brain, ie the idea of Jungian arc types representing the collective experiences of millions of humans all experiencing the operations of similar brain structures, and experiencing it as collectively shared behaviours and beliefs. Personally I am an atheist, so I interpret Jordan's religious references as a combination of metaphors and philosophical treatises, I actually think that is how Jordan interprets them too, I don't think he is a biblical literalist, though I may be wrong on that. That is where I think some of the disagreement comes from between the two, Sam spent his early online career with Hitch arguing against a literal interpretation of the bible. so when Jordan says the things in the bible are true, he means it, but only as Obi Wan would say, true from a certain point of view. I think they both have a lot to offer the world, they are both fascinating and they both believe in the importance of freedom of speech and respecting facts and science. I also think that they are both a little swayed by their respective echo chambers, but I think they are both able to keep their vision clear for the most part too. I personally would love to see them have another debate, or rather a conversation where neither party was trying to win points, or appeal to their fans, but just listen and learn from each other. I think that would be something to see.

"True From a Certain Point of View" is called Mythology, buddy. Therefor, that's not true. It's easily my biggest gripe with Peterson that he thinks that Truth doesn't need to be based off of Facts. That was an infuriating discussion with Sam that completely ruined my opinion of Peterson.

@GoodAvatar-ut5pq Thanks for taking the time to read that whole comment and replying. Personally I think I come in halfway between Peterson and Harris's perspectives. But there is a big difference between perspective based truth and mythology. For example, it is true that light is a wave, it is also true that light is a particle. It is highly likely that there exists a deeper truth that explains light more completly still. It does not follow that light is a myth because it is dependant on the perspective from which it is analysed. I realise that my example might seem a bit specific and not related to the topic, but it highlights my core argument, which is that truth can be dependant on the framework from which it is analysed.

Sam had this to say about Jordan Peterson and Joe Rogan. "In my view they're in a contrarian echo chamber" But Sam removed himself from Twitter. Thus separating himself from those who disagree with him. Joe has invited him to debate Bret Weinstein about his and Sam's opposing view points. Even if Joe was in an "echo chamber" he invited someone who wasn't in it to speak. Yet, Sam hasn't come on to debate his views.

Therefore, he has abandoned intellectual integrity and devoted his platform to maintain faith in these institutions, regardless of the truth.

Even with the twitter files released, what happened during those "crucial days" were rightfully cautious, and is obviously still going on at Twitter now that Elon Musk has taken over, just more favourable to the right than the left at this point.

It therefore outperforms many other forms of philosophy that measure themselves using the same measures of success - such as liberalism and socialism. However, I don't see socialists abandoning socialism because it keeps failing and then adapting a proven Amish philosophy to their needs. This makes you wonder what is the socialist motivation? The goal of equality, sustainability, fairness, justice - or the process? Perhaps they go for it because they expect more sex and a better job? When measured in terms purely of performance, being Amish is more credible than being socialist. You don't get much more religious than being Amish. G.K.

Serve your Lord, the One who created you, and those before you-so that you may be kept safe from harm’s way.” “Truly, with the consciousness & remembrance of God do hearts truly find rest and peace.” - The Qur’an

Sam thinks that because something is predictable or explainable that it is not meaningful. Jordan understands that that perspective is one of arrogance.

Sam always sounds profound without being originally profound

Sam got jacked btw 💪🏻 Hope he and Jordan will do a podcast again

The irony of Sam accusing Joe and Jordan of being in an echo chamber-citing their views on mRNA and covid-while he refuses to debate literally anyone who holds those views.

@@SY-qg6qnExactly, also in Sam‘s words, its a huge opportunity cost. I wish though all of them get „back together“ and figure things out eventually. Such strong minds and characters that are still not being able to find a common ground. What agreement then can the divided common folks hope for, if these cannot find it?

He doesn't want to get even more people killed than these right wing podcast idiots have already done by spreading information. Remember Ivermectin? Bret is still pushing it even though it doesn't work. If you think Sam is living in an echo chamber, you haven't followed his work. Ironically, the people living in the biggest echo chambers right now are these psudo open-minded, "im totally not conservative but I empathize", Trump apologist podcasts that can hold the left's feet to the fire but won't say a bad word about the right. The ones that have so obviously been taken over by their audience, and have lost any shred of respect that they may have deserved.

i am SO excited for this one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
