This is the most engaging episode of your show that I have yet listened to. Thank you both, I really enjoyed this, and it's that rare thing: a podcast that I'm going to listen to more than once.
Expected you to disagree with him on trigger warnings. Seriously that is exactly the wrong thing to do which we know from psychotherapy. You create even more fragile psyches by warning people before they get exposed to very trivial things. Haven't you had Jonnathan Haidt on your podcast? Will you invite him? Rory really dropped the ball here. The problem is that the trigger warnings are creating people that can't deal with normal reality anymore. It's not something you should promote.
That tangentialism is his brain doing creative rubiks cube, generating lots of threads and ideas which can become chaos if someone doesn't keep track and rewind a couple of steps and finish off the loop.
I hate when Chris is about to say something interesting and Rory interrupts. I know we're here to listen to Rory, but I just wish he'd occasionally engage his ears a fraction as much as his mouth.
Yeah, call it ADHD or whatever (adult before label/diagnosis started)...I love people who jump around like this. There is a thread of commonality throughout. It is not just random. It's a joy when you get two people that can handle it and converse. I think part of it is geographical. Where I grew up we all carried on simultaneous conversations at the same time. Where I live now, it's really rare to get someone who can.
Rory is clearly a very intelligent guy but I’ve actually had to turn the podcast off with 45 minutes left to go. He won’t even let Chris finish a question that he’s posing and completely cuts him off each time. I’m sure it’s not intentional and purely down to enthusiasm but have some self awareness in a 2 way conversation. Shame it kinda ruined this podcast episode
I came here after watching Rory was 'interviewed' by Alex O'Conor. It is extraordinary that Chris got more than eight words in. Rory is brilliant!!! I love hearing him speak. I wonder if he is bored out of his skyll by not being able to have these intense conversations every week. Bloody good show.

I find he's a terrible communicator, he interrupts constantly, doesn't listen and speaks down to Chris. He also consistently turns it around and makes it about himself.
@@mariolongtin8271weirdly though, I don’t mind when he interrupts, because it doesn’t feel malicious it just seems like he’s so excited to share something he’s going to burst, plus he has ADD or ADHD so it makes sense his mannerisms
@joethomas9926 Yeah, that also makes a lot of sense! I get the "I'm better than you, I'm the master, now listen to me vibes." I could be off. Nonetheless, he is definitely intelligent.
Instead of usually his talents for psychology and the human good, he used it to make money for corporations that’s what I don’t like. Marketing and advertising is probably the most disgusting career in the world.
Rory Sutherland is one of my favorite people since his amazing TED talks years ago when TED was still good. He has unconventional and fascinating ideas

If Hormozi is the angel sitting on one of my shoulders, then Rory is the devil sitting on the other. What a wonderfully, lovably, distractible man. No matter where the story goes it will be interesting, insightful, and hilarious. Absolute legend.
😂😂this made me laugh bc I listen to everything Hormozi puts out, and just now discovered Rory. I thought abt how different the two podcasts on this show went with them 😂
Yeah he was talking about CEO talking about big topic like GDP and interest rate and suddenly he talks about police and guns and suddenly he talked about a toilet. Like dude go back to the CEO thing 😂
He’s like a talking Ai an accurate one. Like you see how fast Ai throws text down and seems highly knowledgeable. This is Rory Sutherland but he’s a natural not a bot. Amazing

First time I’m hearing of this Rory chap, complete gem. What a great and interesting conversation. Well done letting him run, the way you threaded this conversation was great.
Rory Sutherland sits alone at the barycenter of wit & wisdom. The gravitas of his pragmatism and sound reasoning is eclipsed only by his gregarious charm and disarming mirth. Thank you, Chris for having the humility to simply listen and allow this man to fire on all cylinders.44

This interview was so effin good. Rory is an incredible mind and one of, if not the most, insightful + humourous conversationalists in the Anglo world right now. Kudos Mr. Williamson 👏👏
This dude is fractal! Every single answer contains an anecdote that contains another answer which has anecdote in it …. Self similar for 3 hours and brilliant.

@@EbonyPope I'm sure he'd be aware of the "Antifragile" concept pushed by Nassim Taleb, I don't think he's connected the dots though. He's been blinded by the allure of supposed compassion, rather than true compassion. An oversight that is easy to fall into if you have a framework that prioritises being nice before being responsible.
I love watching Rory being interviewed. He's the perfect interviewee - has very interesting things to say, is erudite and humorous, and doesn't let the interviewer finish a sentence 😆
47:40 I found my engagement ring. Fell in love with it. It was at Costco. It may be gone the next time we were there. I called my fiance and bought it on the spot. It was 1/4 of his monthly income. I love the ring still today, 16 years later.
Reminds me of my old boss. Fascinating stories, insights and delightful mischievous humour in his delivery. A new guest at my imaginary dinner party. Great podcast 👍🏼😄
Watching Chris try to keep up with ADHD pinballing is almost as much fun as the pinballing itself 😆 By the end he really nails it, though. It's quite a skill to be able to catherd the bees in the head into a coherent interview 🤩
This guy is the reason I started vaping instead of smoking. Had been smoking for 20 years, and saw this guy on the show. Chris started talking to him about vaping. Rory said it is a much better way to get nicotine on a variety of levels. I tried it out because of his glowing review. Coincidentally, I breathe much better now. I can run for the first time in my life. Chris, your show is making my life better. Thanks, you are a real hero.
Same, I’m now using nicotine pouches to quit vaping. Tried patches and gum but didn’t do it for me. Now I’m steadily lowering the amount of pouches by spacing out the time between use. Used to be 1 hour now it’s 4. I can feel the improvement in my lungs already and it’s only been 2 weeks
Wow, dude! That is really rad! Personally, I like what nicotine does to me, so I don't want to quit. But not inhaling burning plants and industrial chemicals every day made a HUGE difference in my health. I recommend it to every smoker I know.
It depends if you like the subject or just want to succeed. If you don't like his stories then he can be extremely boring. And you can hate being there and loathe the sound of their voice. Speaking from experience.
You have one of the best shows on the internet, Chris! Thanks for my first exposure to Rory Sutherland. He's very smart and nice but exhausting to listen to!
The sound guys must have had the most strenuous time editing Rorys audio from all the left-and-right body swinging he does 10 times per second (bless the man), the audio balance is just non existent and threshold is all over the place. My god, i love it. He talks with his body movement with equal vigor and speed if not greater than his mind can form sentences. Give your audio guys a raise, Chris, the sweat from editing this podcast is palpable. Love the pod ❤
This has to be one of the most engaging conversation.. Esp. use of language, storytelling, complimentary skills of both Chris & Rory and sheer energy that's put in here. Worth the time. Almost at par with James Sexton Podcast with Lex. Notwithstanding the fact that there are 0 takeaways and totally misleading thumbnail.
Going to read (rather listen) to all of his books on audible! Used to be in advertising wish I had had a boss like him! He has such a wealth of knowledge!
I’ve probably watched about 20 different Rory interviews. I think Cory got to speak more than anyone. Rory is full of knowledge and anyone who’s choosing to have him on the podcast has to be aware he has a creative mind that is always connecting to more information. You have to know what to expect when Rory gets on and you’ll always learn something different. He tends to be repetitive but that’s natural with advertising or sales
Holy mackerel in a sackerel of quackerel, what an incredible two hours of rich conversation. I'm honestly floored, my normal ability to leave an incisive remark is just clapped-out! It would maybe take me an hour to re-skim through the episode and compile all the great moments I have something to say about, and that's a treasured feeling. Who is this Rory Sutherland and how have I not encountered him before?
I got married in 2011. I am telling you. I absolutely feel like I caught the last helicopter out of Saigon. That is such an apt way to put that. I have been looking for the words forever. ROFL.
100%. NFI where i'd even start with the mess that is the dating scene these days. I wrote my wife a letter ffs. The way it's done now seems so freaking toxic.
Thank goodness that you exist Rory! While I acknowledge the comments of others, for me; the side quests are all Part of the whole - there simply aren’t sufficient “moments” to cut it all in - the side quest are “the point” to me
Great episode, but the chap relentlessly goes off on tangents and interrupts you at every chance. He is well intentioned but conducting that interview must have been like herding cats. 😂
1:35:37 🎉I LOVE that you pointed out that old tv interview of folks here in the U.S. griping about not being allowed to drink and drive! There’s similar one where people are griping about wearing seatbelts in the front seat!😅 Also, I laughed so hard at “NOTHING in America is beyond being drive through-able.” 😂 SO TRUE! And even here in Ohio we have drive thru weed dispensaries. I love this interview.
Love how chris kept his ground ❤️ but also this is a great Rory interview! Saw him 10 years ago, and he's adapted how he shares he's view on current topics
I absolutely love Rory! I cannot believe its the first time iv come across him. Im actually upset I didnt know about him earlier. I could listen to him Rant for hours on end!
Alex Oconnor just interviewed Rory and im so sorry i missed this podcast because he is just incredibly full of usable information while also being hilarious. This is how a good salesperson operates, and Rory is very very good. Its nice to hear a full throated case for Georgism from a conservative. Phenomenal guest, shame i missed him months ago.
Subscribed because of this interview. Absolutely brilliant 😂 I went from being annoyed by Rory’s interruptions to being distracted by them. Masterful interview and patience. Fair play to you.
Even Chris has no chance against the ramblings of this man. 🤣The tangents are rife with gold though. Even I could host a fabulous podcast episode with Rory - just give the man a mic and sit back!
The only chap who doesn't irritate when he interrupts, it's always fascinating and engaging without fail, what a mind. ADHD + extremely high IQ is a lethal combo
For anyone wondering: Trim tabs are smaller control surfaces connected to large control surfaces. I'll use the example of the elevator on a plane that controls the nose-up/nose-down attitude of the plane. Say the plane's controls are slightly uncalibrated, or there's particularly windy or whatever conditions when youre flying, and your plane constantly sort of wants to go nose-up. In that case you have to CONSTANTLY apply the elevator down control, which gets annoying, tiring, and limits your full range of control. So you adjust the trim tab on your elevator so that the plane flys level without you having to do any input. I'd sort of make a parallel with zeroing in the rifle at a certain distance you're shooting at that day so you don't have to manually adjust for elevation every shot you take.
I have never seen this show, but I'll say that chris seemed super interested and was a good interviewer, he let his guest speak. In regards to the USA and Canada, i am not sure everyone wants to live in suburbia and spend hours in cars, they just can't all afford to move to NY, SF or Boston, etc or even Vancouver, Toronto etc. Some do, others will never trade a big city with transportation for an isolated car status culture. In NY status is about what you do, not your job nor your car, but what you do as fulltime passion which may or may not be what pays the bills.
02:09:50 TH-cam isn't a singular T.V. station, it's a television ecosystem, every TH-cam account is its own television channel with its own programming.
It's quite unfortunate that I've never heard of Rory. This episode was absolutely amazing. And and so so much fun!!! He is not only knowledgeable, but has an incredible sense of humour. 🧐🧐🧡🧡 I'll be researching more about him for sure!!🧐🧐
Damn.. chris masterfully handled this conversation.... i would have called rory out on the constant interuptions... Inspite of the constant interrupting, rory is still quite charming and loveable... I enjoyed listening to these two Brits chatting away...

Dude there are traffic circles in Austin especially in some of the older residential areas. Also EVs are everywhere here especially Tesla (hate them)
I love/hate when Rory goes off topic, and I love/hate when Chris makes him comeback kto topic. These two balance each other beautifully
That tangentialism is his brain doing creative rubiks cube, generating lots of threads and ideas which can become chaos if someone doesn't keep track and rewind a couple of steps and finish off the loop.
His time would be cut in half if he omitted the frequent use of "OK."
“Ok. Dating sites” 😂
I hate when Chris is about to say something interesting and Rory interrupts. I know we're here to listen to Rory, but I just wish he'd occasionally engage his ears a fraction as much as his mouth.
As someone with ADHD, it's an absolute pleasure to listen to Rory - my mind works the same way (but certainly not as brilliantly!!)
Agreed. He is captivating for the tangential mind, while still getting to the point in the very end at last.
adhd is not real.
Perhaps he is an adhdr too
the both, utterly perfect
Yeah, call it ADHD or whatever (adult before label/diagnosis started)...I love people who jump around like this. There is a thread of commonality throughout. It is not just random. It's a joy when you get two people that can handle it and converse.
I think part of it is geographical. Where I grew up we all carried on simultaneous conversations at the same time. Where I live now, it's really rare to get someone who can.
I could literally listen to Rory talk all day.
I don't think you'll have a choice
You’d have to.
There’s plenty of Rory on TH-cam so you can!
I think he'd be fine with that 😂
So could Rory😂
Rory seems to be the most well-intentioned habitual interrupter I’ve witnessed.
He just can't help himself, the interesting tidbits NEED to come out immediately....
He's clearly very intelligent and well-versed but he needs to realize a conversation is between 2 people
His own thoughts are continually interrupting his own speech. So it's not personal or something to be done only to other people.
Rory is clearly a very intelligent guy but I’ve actually had to turn the podcast off with 45 minutes left to go. He won’t even let Chris finish a question that he’s posing and completely cuts him off each time.

@@garydragoWho you could just accept him for who he is. If you don't like it, don't listen to him again. I think he's brilliant despite this flaw.
I came here after watching Rory was 'interviewed' by Alex O'Conor. It is extraordinary that Chris got more than eight words in.
Rory is brilliant!!! I love hearing him speak. I wonder if he is bored out of his skyll by not being able to have these intense conversations every week.

Mr. Sutherland bears a strong resemblance to Miriam Margolyes. A total delight to listen to. His relationship to comedy and comedians is fascinating.
Holy shit you are right
Oh yes I hadn't noticed that. He reminds me of an aunt, non stop, non sequitur talk. Limited listening skills!

But not inhaling burning plants and industrial chemicals every day made a HUGE difference in my health.
I recommend it to every smoker I know.
Always enjoy listening to Rory, esp when he goes off on a tangent. Great communicator & observer of things oft ignored
agree, but also a terrible listener😂
If this man was my teacher or professor in school. I'd never fail a class his passion will become my passion 😤🔥🔥🔥🔥
Agreed
It depends if you like the subject or just want to succeed.
If you don't like his stories then he can be extremely boring. And you can hate being there and loathe the sound of their voice.
Speaking from experience.
What a pleasing accent Rory Sutherland has - will be no problem to listen to him whatever he has to say! 🙂
He was made for advertising. His charisma is off the charts and his approach appears genuine.
I am so exited to watch Rory and Chris ! You guys are legends! Watching from South Africa ! 🇿🇦
This guy is awesome. Thanks for bringing him to us Chris.
This guy is out of control and I love it.
As a Welsh PhD student studying Identity, phenomenology and minoritized language, I’m ecstatic at that Welsh reference :)
Tidy!

I really enjoyed this conversation. Shame that they stopped it after 2 hours. I could've listened to this conversation for 4 hours!
Rory Sutherland gives wisdom. I wonder if it sinks in.
Love seeing a rory episode pop up because you know it will be a solid 2h+ if not solely for the reason that he can't shut up
He’s nearly to the end of one train of thought and then he’s like “that reminds me of a story, well two actually, let me tell you four stories.”

So why don’t you stop and repeat .That’s the beauty of podcasts.
Discovered Rory around 4 days ago, now I’m hooked. Great chemistry between these two in particular
I could listen to Rory all day. Entertaining and informative. There aren't many people pull that off as well as he does. That was great!

I’ve probably watched about 20 different Rory interviews. I think Cory got to speak more than anyone. Rory is full of knowledge and anyone who’s choosing to have him on the podcast has to be aware he has a creative mind that is always connecting to more information. You have to know what to expect when Rory gets on and you’ll always learn something different. He tends to be repetitive but that’s natural with advertising or sales
Any chance of Chris getting a word in edge ways? 😂
With Rory? No, not really. I quite love him though, even if he won’t shut up sometimes!
He is interviewing Rory. I hate it when hosts on podcasts constantly chime in, much like Rogan
meh we’ve heard him blather enough this was informative
I love Rory, could listen to him all day but God I wish he’d just let Chris finish a single sentence but butting in.
Holy mackerel in a sackerel of quackerel, what an incredible two hours of rich conversation. I'm honestly floored, my normal ability to leave an incisive remark is just clapped-out! It would maybe take me an hour to re-skim through the episode and compile all the great moments I have something to say about, and that's a treasured feeling. Who is this Rory Sutherland and how have I not encountered him before?
Rory is fantastic. I've been following him for years. It was so fun watching you two specifically together. Great show!
I got married in 2011. I am telling you. I absolutely feel like I caught the last helicopter out of Saigon.
That is such an apt way to put that.
I have been looking for the words forever.
ROFL.
100%. NFI where i'd even start with the mess that is the dating scene these days. I wrote my wife a letter ffs. The way it's done now seems so freaking toxic.
Yeah. Dating is in insane nightmare now.
Rory is a gem. Could listen to him all day. Brilliant
Thank goodness that you exist Rory!
While I acknowledge the comments of others, for me; the side quests are all
Part of the whole - there simply aren’t sufficient “moments” to cut it all in - the side quest are “the point” to me
What a character, Red suspenders +50 points. Rory should be in museum glass labeled “British Stereotype.”
Great episode, but the chap relentlessly goes off on tangents and interrupts you at every chance. He is well intentioned but conducting that interview must have been like herding cats. 😂
People with ADHD thinks like he speaks.
So if you have ADHD what you wrote is not even noticed.
That's the charm
This guy is a genius and too funny. 👏 😂 Could listen to him ramble on all day
Rory's magnum opus for the last 10yrs in essentially 2 hrs, absolutely colossal, and Chris cudos for being the stable rock in it all!
This was both wise & hilarious! Your podcasts always brighten my day
1:35:37 🎉I LOVE that you pointed out that old tv interview of folks here in the U.S. griping about not being allowed to drink and drive! There’s similar one where people are griping about wearing seatbelts in the front seat!😅
Also, I laughed so hard at “NOTHING in America is beyond being drive through-able.” 😂
SO TRUE! And even here in Ohio we have drive thru weed dispensaries.
I love this interview.
New Orleans goes one better. You can buy cocktails at a drive-thru!
Love how chris kept his ground ❤️ but also this is a great Rory interview! Saw him 10 years ago, and he's adapted how he shares he's view on current topics
Rory is great and has introduced me to a whole new way of looking at the world!. His audio book is great!
He cracks me up 😂but Chris can’t word in … 🙈😂!!
Never a dull episode with Rory 🤟
Chris asked like 2 and 3 half questions the whole time. xD I could listen to Rory Sutherland all day.
This is as good as a podcast gets. High level conversation. I have learned so much from this episode. Bravo 🙌🏿
I absolutely love Rory! I cannot believe its the first time iv come across him. Im actually upset I didnt know about him earlier. I could listen to him Rant for hours on end!
Alex Oconnor just interviewed Rory and im so sorry i missed this podcast because he is just incredibly full of usable information while also being hilarious. This is how a good salesperson operates, and Rory is very very good. Its nice to hear a full throated case for Georgism from a conservative. Phenomenal guest, shame i missed him months ago.
Well done Chris for calling out the bullshit at 1:45, etc ! 👍👍👍
This is said despite liking what Rory has to say. Boundaries matter! 💪👍👍❤️❤️❤️
This guy is a bloody legend
Ευχαριστούμε!
Subscribed because of this interview. Absolutely brilliant 😂
I went from being annoyed by Rory’s interruptions to being distracted by them. Masterful interview and patience. Fair play to you.
Rory speaks over the interviewer and takes many side-roads in his stories, but I love hearing him speak 😊
Even Chris has no chance against the ramblings of this man. 🤣The tangents are rife with gold though. Even I could host a fabulous podcast episode with Rory - just give the man a mic and sit back!
The only chap who doesn't irritate when he interrupts, it's always fascinating and engaging without fail, what a mind. ADHD + extremely high IQ is a lethal combo
For anyone wondering:
Trim tabs are smaller control surfaces connected to large control surfaces. I'll use the example of the elevator on a plane that controls the nose-up/nose-down attitude of the plane.
Say the plane's controls are slightly uncalibrated, or there's particularly windy or whatever conditions when youre flying, and your plane constantly sort of wants to go nose-up. In that case you have to CONSTANTLY apply the elevator down control, which gets annoying, tiring, and limits your full range of control. So you adjust the trim tab on your elevator so that the plane flys level without you having to do any input.
I'd sort of make a parallel with zeroing in the rifle at a certain distance you're shooting at that day so you don't have to manually adjust for elevation every shot you take.
This conversation was unexpectedly hilarious. Fab guest.
I have never seen this show, but I'll say that chris seemed super interested and was a good interviewer, he let his guest speak. In regards to the USA and Canada, i am not sure everyone wants to live in suburbia and spend hours in cars, they just can't all afford to move to NY, SF or Boston, etc or even Vancouver, Toronto etc. Some do, others will never trade a big city with transportation for an isolated car status culture. In NY status is about what you do, not your job nor your car, but what you do as fulltime passion which may or may not be what pays the bills.
I have seen Rory a while ago on a podcast. Very entertaining and at the same time highly informed. Loved the energy of this interview. ❤
02:09:50 TH-cam isn't a singular T.V. station, it's a television ecosystem, every TH-cam account is its own television channel with its own programming.
I have to rewatch this again and write down some of the terminolgy they use like "purity spiral" etc.
"Crackheads academy"
I want to un-like and re-like this episode again. This is how good this episode is! We need a super LIKE button here.
So so SO GOOD to hear *Thomas sowell* mentioned here
I love listening to Rory and will be thinking about his idea for a long time but I wince every time he interrupts.
He’s probably one of the most well-spoken I’ve come across in a long time.
God I love how every tangent is really just giving context, to the context, to the context.
Chris has incredible patience lol
Sutherland has incredible wisdom and is an unbelievable talent. What advice would you give the young people of today becoming adults?
It's quite unfortunate that I've never heard of Rory. This episode was absolutely amazing. And and so so much fun!!! He is not only knowledgeable, but has an incredible sense of humour. 🧐🧐🧡🧡 I'll be researching more about him for sure!!🧐🧐
I’ve recently watched The Lord Of The Rings. Thanks for having him on
Just the best..love your interviews and spec Rory Sutherland..What a personality ❤
This is the first time that I've noticed Chris seeming bored multiple times during the interview.
Think he was frustrated from getting cut off every time he tried to speak lol.
Damn.. chris masterfully handled this conversation.... i would have called rory out on the constant interuptions...
Inspite of the constant interrupting, rory is still quite charming and loveable...
I enjoyed listening to these two Brits chatting away...
This man should be at every party.
I am the number one fan of Rory Sutherland!
This episode is worth an entire degree.
Rory is next level
22:32 how cold is in that studio?! ... hats off to Chris for wearing just a t-shirt
I couldn't get past how amazing the interviewers arm & forearms are sculpted.
It is part of his image, hunk with brains!!!
He was on a UK reality show.
Rory is peak podcasting for this show
