This feels like a father and son debating over the dinner table after the rest of the family had enough and went to bed... and its great lol
-
Jordan told Destiny, "You have the right to your own Destiny" without a hint of irony. What a fantastic conversation.
-
This is how presidential debates should happen. 2 people and a camera.
-
1:35:23 - After a peak of heated argument, Jordan makes a small non-targeted joke, and they both laugh about it for a second and then move on. Another thing illustrating how surprisingly well this conversation went
-
I love a debate with zero personal attacks.
-
Never in my life did I think I would see this pairing, I admire the diversity of guests on this podcast.
-
Love the arguing with the teacher vibes throughout.
-
One of the best debates i've seen in years, What a treat.
-
“ guys please you’re ruining Easter for the whole family”
-
The subtle, unspoken, mutual apologies for getting too worked up were things of absolute beauty. I'd love to see much more between these two.
-
It’s heartening to see lots of comments about the lack of personal attacks, but in all realness it seemed that none of the core issues that came up were resolved. Both passionately wove their own arguments without diving too deep into the others. I would certainly love to see a more structured approach to coming to understanding between the two perspectives.
-
The format for this debate/discussion is fire. Thank you thank you thank you Jordan.
-
Mr Vermicelli was surprisingly respectful and well tempered. Great talk.
-
51 minutes in, things are tense, the fadeaway to the advertisement had me DYING of laughter
-
This was great— I respect both for their thoughtfulness
-
I’m so thrilled to see a proper “left vs right” debate. A much missed act of the past. Hats off to both of you. A perfect example of what needs to again happen more in our societies and NA countries.
-
Jordans suit game is outta this world
-
Wow, what a rarity! A non-moderated, true debate with plenty of yelling and passion, but not a single personal attack! And for 2 hours!
-
I love this conversation. Music to my ears. Great debate
-
This was a great conversation. Im typically more aligned with Petersons point of view. I have to say that Peterson uses quite a few straw man arguments when discussing with people. He incredibly knowledgeable but he doesn’t seem to like to talk about actual solutions. Destiny is like water. He may have less wisdom but he tries to focus the conversation. Peterson does do a good job interviewing his guests. But he’s been saying the exact same things for the last ten years. I’m not sure if he is capable of changing his mind. And I don’t think anyone will respond to this comment, but I would be happy for someone to disagree :)
