I haven't seen this one yet, but long-form is the only way to listen to him. It takes time to see his arguments. I don't agree with everything he says, but I agree with quite a bit of it. I appreciate the thoughtfulness he brings to the discussion as opposed to parroting the conventional wisdom.
I remember a short interview that he did with a guy from Vice(?). The edited version made him look like a jerk. Later the unedited version came out and the interviewer looked like an idiot ... while Jordan Petersen emerged as the Socratic teacher.
Long form is one of the few antidotes to the epidemic of sound-byte memes that are politically edited.
I appreciate a good, honest debate.
I would say buddhism has the ultimate "truth telling " and highest subjective scientific research.
Why?

Why not?
They actually have methods to explore the "inner self".
"Why" may have sounded more contentious than I meant it.
Are you talking about meditation or something different?

Anything that asks, "whats your inner world look like?".
I think I see.
So, if you're looking inward, you're going to see the good and the evil both, and now you've got to decide what to do with that?

Dr Peterson is a great speaker, and he's got a big following on Youtube.
He is fascinating. I disagree with him on some of his ideas, but really appreciate how he confronts ideologues.

I love listening to Peterson talk... being able to articulate my thoughts that well is something I aspire to! I don't know how he can structure his thoughts that well and that far ahead.
He reads a LOT. He's also spent a lifetime as a clinician and professor open to learning.

Yes, Jordan is adamant on facing the shadow.
