thank you
Good job Theo. You do good work
Theo.... this is the heaviest interview I've ever heard... the simplicity of this complexity is just.... wow
Thanks man
Please do more....
What are you gonna do, not click on this video? Its like NO, wrong.

Underrated comment
I was scrolling until I got that sought after dopamine hit from reading a comment that made me smile - your's was IT!!!
I laughed way too hard at this
Anyone with any sense would know to click on a video such as this and THATS THAT.
Thanks Theo :)
Waiting for jordan and elon podcast.
Oh that will be a very interesting conversation to attend to.
Thank you Mikhaila!! Having Theo talk with him really brings to the forefront of how great your dad is at reaching the everyday man!!
You're welcome :)
@@ty5020 why exactly are you thanking her? #simp
"No no, you had a thought I'd like to hear it." Small things like these can touch so deeply
word
Word. And it's so natural too as it is part of his personality in dealing with people. Not some superficial persona to score compassion points with the internet.
Was thinking on commenting on that. Spot on
I was also happy to hear Jordan say that. He is known for being a good speaker. But I’d argue he’s a very good listener as well.
@@jonis7989 Considering the animosity he often faces from interviewrs he is the best listener I've ever seen
Honestly, Theo is one of the best people to talk with Jordan. He's very deep without the gigantic vocabulary.
I attempted to say the same thing using deep gigantic vocabulary and I failed. Thank you, short and sweet (and to the point!)
Woah I love that description.
“You had a thought, I’d like to hear it.” - Jordan Peterson
This is why we love him.
I am going to try very hard to incorporate this phrase into my arsenal (and mean it). So much more endearing than “go ahead.. no you go ahead”
@@AKracecars vocabulary. Use that word in your arsenal as well
omg, that was so cute I'd die on the spot if jordan said that to me tbh....
@@armando1829 “Vocabulary” generally references the repertoire of individual words at your disposal.. not whole phrases. But thanks for being a comment section douche.
@@AKracecars alright then. Actually just meant to be helpful in a funny way. I now see how it could be misinterpreted though haha
“Sometimes I can think, sometimes I can talk.....but rarely can I do both.”
Theo Von
The voice in my head does not exist when i use my tounge and vocal chords. Thats why writing is so powerful.
@@fumewahfter damn.... screenshotting this shit
Right haha I was like naw Theo, I've watched a lot of your content, and you are actually one of he best at doing both of those at the same time 🤣🤣🤣
That's called having no filter. You can learn to catch yourself. Thinking things through doesn't come naturally to all, but all can learn to be more thoughtful.
TRUTH.
I feel like Theo provokes Jordan Peterson’s thought more than possibly any interviewer. I think it’s because Theo is so genuine and down to earth. Great podcast.
And vice versa. At no time was the conversation biased to either side
Andrew Schulz is the second one like this.
Great observation! I'm with it.
Russell brand
Agreed, I get the impression they could be extremely good friends off-camera, maybe even best friends. The genuineness on both sides is refreshing in this artificial world we find ourselves in.
"Do you remember your first kiss, Dr. Peterson?" - never thought I'd watch an interview with this question
time stamp?
@@_Nosferatu_ 2:03:10
Thank you
*loses video connection*
Theo: “am I sitting too still? Sometimes I get a little still. I have low blood pressure actually” 🤣🤣😂
I think he might have said 'slow' blood pressure - maybe not but it made me giggle :)
My god, that went under the radar. That was Poes funny
🤣🤣🤣
So good 🤣🤣🤣
So funny! Gang!😂😂
Theo's brutal honesty is the best. Who else would interview Jordan Peterson and say "I haven't finished your book, there's a lot of big words in there" 😂
Exactly
Theo is a Cajun treasure
Theo is the real deal.
Theo is a living treasure.
@bina nocht you’re probably just too unintelligent you make the connection. Peter speaks and writes with purpose. The little stories and examples are always tied back to the overall topic for the chapter. Don’t blame the writer and cry about him when you can’t understand the material…
Prof Peterson just seems less guarded and more cheerful with Theo than with anyone else. The love and tenderness is so apparent I feel like joining a group hug in a JBP-Theo Von interview. Prof Peterson is so authentic a person that his energy just radiates and influences anyone who sees him.
real recognizes real.
That's cause although Theo himself might not rate his own mind for a number of reasons, he actually has a very solid head on his shoulders. He may not be from a good background, have the right nature to capitalise on it, and didn't get a good education, but hes a very smart and honest man, and if I see it then Dr Peterson definitely sees it.
Well said.
I had a feeling the interview will go that way (just started watching it) because Theo called him "A thinkin Man" in a way that just sounded so wholesomely kind.
@@TomahawkTom that's what it is.
“Was I too still? I have low blood pressure” 😂😂😂😂 I’m dying LMAO
Theo using this interview as a personal psychiatrist 😂😂
Me too 😂
Little does Theo know, he's about to get a $5,000.00 bill in the mail....😉
I would do the same
Lol
Aren't we all
Theo muttering "I hate Satan" was so lowkey real and hilarious
😂

🤣🤣
This was like if the class comedian and the teacher had a conversation after everyone left 😂. Amazing episode
I’m a 59-yo mom of three adult sons and I listen to almost all interviews JBP does. The two with Theo Von are some of the better ones.
Im the mom of two sons, one adult and one a teenager. I’ve purchased “12 Rules for Life” for them to read.
40yo Mom of two sons here, oldest 20, youngest 12, and I definitely encourage these types of conversations. I have JBPs books also. He is a blessing to our age!
Theo's ability to simplify his thoughts to such laymen terms and Dr Petersons intelligence to take those thoughts and expand on them so delicately and profoundly is such a perfect combo. Love it. Probably gonna listen again and take notes.
Nice rhymes

It will only make your life better g!

Responding to Dr. Peterson losing Theo visually, "Sorry sometimes I just get a little still it's that low blood pressure. "
The funniest unintentional man I have ever witnessed.
The way he said it, too. 😂 I didn’t know Theo had this success until last year. I was like, THE ROAD RULES GUY HAS A PODCAST! 😂 I wonder if I found him funny back then. I still think about him calling Lee Syiatt(sp?) a muscle hamsta’. 😂
Yeah, I guess all biological men are also unintentional men😉😂
It’s 100% intentional
He is that quick witted watch him more and you will see. 😂
JP: “Some of my clients had horrible lives, this women had severe intellectual impairments and her aunts violent alcoholic boyfriend convinced her that she was possessed by satan”
Theo: “I hate satan”
Theo is so elevated lmao
I'm so glad that I'm not the only person to appreciate that moment 😂
I feel like we're just sitting in on Theo's therapy session.
We are
Was thinking the same thing! “Sorry for interrupting Doctor” “Oh no, it’s okay. You had a thought, I’d like to hear it” 😂
That’s what this podcast is
This was nice. ❤️‼️
Realistically, if I did an interview with Dr. Peterson, I would take full advantage and make it a therapy session for myself.
Theo looks like the kind of guy to clean his room and find a lobster..
He is from Louisiana not Mane.
Crawfish 🦞
Awww, you made a cute little joky joke! 😘
just wanted to say I appreciate seeing all your jokes for the last year or so on all my favorite podcasts lol
Looks like that one went over the head of some of the people just showing up.
Straight up, I could listen to a weekly podcast with these two. I love that Dr. Peterson talks to Theo like Theo is as smart as he actually is. I also like that Theo fully engaged with Jordan and is not fearful to lay it all out there. A rare gift on both their parts
Emotionally, I think they have very similar intelligence.
That is very true
That's why people (especially the working class folks) have immense respect JP because he doesnt talk to people as a top down contemptible university intellectual, he engages fully and provides insights from his professional/academic experience while pushing his own knowledge further and keep the other person constantly interested. Rare gift indeed 🙌
Straight up!!!! We should all go to lunch together. I’ve listened to this episode about 4 times. To hear the words afraid, privileged the list goes on helps me deeply.
Theo has a poets soul. When he said that he looked into the eyes of that man in africa and thought he might have been 3 million years old. Like you could dive into his eyes and never hit the bottom is just BARS. God bless Theo for his genuine eloquence and his sweet outlook on life. Mans a treasure
Respect to a man that is willing to pause and take 10 seconds to think about his answer to a question rather than just blurting out anything to keep the rhythm going.
Are you referring to Theo?
@@kimvrungos2901 not in the slightest. I think Theos processing speed is insane.
We live in society where good conversation is rare
My friends father is the smartest man I have ever known, he's so knowledgeable yet often says "I don't really know" to a lot of questions I asked him and he always takes a long pause to think of complicated questions. He's not a doctor or anything he's a plumber but but damn he's smart and honest enough to tell you he doesn't know the answer to something instead of acting like he knows everything. He also changes his mind on things when we debate and he gets a different perspective on things.
The stepdad who actually cares about our mom!!
Thanks for this
@Bird Dawg lol this is killing me
Theo’s a genius with the analogies
YES!
Yup, shoutout to everyone who already watched his first visit to the podcast!!!
Theo Von has zero problem airing out his own problems.
Love these two. Theo’s constant laughs and hints of wisdom and Jordan’s constant wisdom and hints of humor. Two powerful souls I am thankful for 💯💯
Well stated
Theo has found the antidote to ever being cancelled. Just honesty and vulnerability. Nobody could ever watch this and think either of these men needed to be censored. Loved this, I am such a fan of these two men. It’s therapeutic to me to hear a grown man that I admire, admitting his shortcomings and fears and then another grown man offering wisdom without judgment. I need more of this in my life.
Joe rogan found it first
Unfortunately, they will still try ...
You said it in a beautiful way dude. Spot on man.
The pussies will try cancel him eventually and we'll have to stand up tall for him
Right on David. The hope and optimism in your comment really hit me. Thank you.
Hope you're doing well brother.
*internet signal goes out*
JP: "oh, I lost you"
Theo Von: "I get still...I have low blood pressure"😂😂
The part that had me rolling was.
JP: "Oh, I've lost you"
Theo: "Oh, You did???"
JP: "Yes"
Theo: "Just visually... Or can you still hear me???"
Theo he answered you GD question of course he could hear you!
when was this??? lmfao
@@Built_By_Bacon It happened in the first minute of so of the interview.
That was the best one since bridge to spina bifida
Blood pressure*
It's in those moments when his voice cracks a little and he's on the verge of tears, that you can just tell that Jordan is the real deal and really cares about everyone. ❤
"if you KNOW what you want, you KNOW when your failing"
"its not fog then"
damn....
Theo: " how many more rules are there overall, cause its starting to add up"
First sentence in and im already dying laughing.😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
lol
lol when Jordon said there are millions, Theo gave such a groan of dissatisfaction xD
@@JunkBondTrader that groan was the best, it had me dying😂😂😂
"Sometimes I'm carrying shame, and I don't even know if it's my own." That's heavy. Great conversation.
Intergenerational guilt?
Theo has that poetic sensibility, the ability to invoke colour and feeling from words and phrases and it pairs incredibly well with Jordan’s affinity for narrative and storytelling. I think that is the reason these two fit together so well.
Lol @ that subtle "I hate Satan.." Theo tossed in there.
1:40:30 or so, lol
"It's almost like I'm Sherlock Holmes but...I'm the crime scene." Theo is brilliant in such an understated way. I love the chemistry of these two together.
Very unique type of wisdom, like his comedy
It's just an analogie, calm down
@@fuct9569 calm down debbie
Theo’s the James Joyce of comedy.
@@aaroncook7388 I think they are analogies
Theo: "It's like I'm Sherlock Holms but I'm the crime scene."
th-cam.com/video/NLUI2c9RYug/w-d-xo.html
He's brilliantly conveyed the experience, and I love Dr. Peterson's acknowledgement of how pithy it was.
Best quote of the day!
i love that expression
@@AusPole Yeah I like that, he's definitely great with metaphors (the bubbling in the river is also a good one)! JP definitely appreciates them as well :)
Theo, I’ve heard some fearless self analysis from you in this conversation and have seen a lot of admirable introspection that I respect. What a great episode. You really navigated this conversation in a brave way. I’ve watched this podcast and thought to myself, “How would I navigate the waters with Jordan Peterson?” In my idiot’s mind’s eye, you really did a great job, and your sincerity and honesty drove the discussion. I saw a part of you that stepped away from the comedic aspect of your social construct. Well done, bro. I applaud you, as well as Jordan Peterson.
I agree and I also get the feeling Dr Peterson quite enjoys talking with someone as genuine and intellectually as innocent as Theo. He really got a kick out of many of Theo's analogies as he explains his perception so honestly without trying to keep some fake persona. Plus he openly hates Satan which is generally an indicator of a good person
Well said dude. Gang
@@independentinstallations8419 yeah I get that sense. Theo has an almost poetic turn of phrase, that is often both hilarious and accurate.
While he might not have the academic achievements to show it, I think Jordan is well aware he is a very sharp person.
Dude, i gotta ask(totally off topic); did you go to Sutter Middle School in Sacramento? Lol
01:07:40 "No no, you had a thought, I'd like to hear it"
I wonder if I'll ever hear someone else pronounce these words ever again ahahah
You can be the one who says it, that’ll get you started
"You could just dive into his eyes and never hit the bottom" - Theo
For someone who claims to not be able to think and speak at the same time his words are like poetry lol
Theo is the caucasian Kodak Black
I stopped on that one too. I'm at a loss as to how he comes up with it.
Theo has that country man's wisdom
Could someone please provide the time for when this was said?
@@GiantsOfOld 43:40
I thinks its so incredible that while sometimes Dr Peterson has slight difficulty in explaining simpler Ideas, Theo can step in and does so beautifully. And when Theo has a issue explaining a very complicated idea, Dr Peterson steps in and covers for him. Unbelievable the pair these two make.
excellent observation. They are like a team, damn so enjoyable to watch
100 %
Synergy.
yes- which shows they are really listening to one another...how refreshing!
Definitely
"I'd be doing drugs...underneath a bridge...listening to Aerosmith..." God Theo is great. He has some weird sort of IQ that would never show up on a test, but it's definitely there. I feel like he really gets some of the best conversations out of Dr.JP.
I often feel as though IQ is a limited way to measure something as broad as intelligence
I agree with this. There is certainly something to IQ but I definitely don’t think it tells the entire story. I haven’t looked into nearly as much as I should have but I believe I rather liked Gardner’s idea of Multiple Intelligences when I was introduced to it
Theo has very high emotional intelligence, and language I'd say. Not sure if IQ tests do test for those, but I remember artistry & creative intelligence being something that IQ tests didnt cater for?
Its because he is highly intellectual
@@michaelmantione286 IQ tests are just a standardized way of testing someone's intelligence in relation to others. It does have merit but no it is not a tell-all kind of thing. It's a bit outdated anyway because now they have something called the "G-factor" that aims to measure general intelligence, meaning whatever that thing is that can be applied broadly.
Theo's got a special kind of magic but it has a lot to do with his unique way of seeing things and relating them to other things and his unique way with words. I'm not sure that's the kind of intelligence that can really be applied, though. It's almost like a party trick, not to undermine him too much, but...he is in the entertainment world for a reason.
I just feel like Theo is trying to genuinely be a good person. What we should all strive for. What a treat to hear Dr. Peterson’s brain again.
This made me think about a conversation I had with a friend who was wise WAY above his years. I was about 10 riding motocross stopped chatting with my friend's older brother, about 16, next to this big jump I wanted to try and he was like, "You haven't hit that yet?! Oh man you got it." And I said, "Yeah you're probably right, I want to do it but I'm scared!" and he just looked at me and was like, "... so then do it scared." And it blew me away, because he wasn't dismissing the fear like I expected him to, he totally understood and acknowledged it, and was like you're scared? So what, do it anyway. Do it scared. And I think about that REMARKABLY often even still, and this was almost 20 years ago now.
That's exactly what "Don't be a pussy means".
"Don't be a pussy", as in
"Don't be a scaredy cat".
Being a chicken means you cluck & run around, refusing to go through with the act (like when two drivers play chicken).
A scaredy cats will either just sit there and lick itself, ignorant to the pressure of any commands or it will scurry off in such haste that will include a jump, flip or any other crazy cat like manoeuvre (see Internet) which will itself will be more challenging than the act. In either case, the cat isn't genuinely scared, why would they be? They have 9 lives.
They might run from a dog but that's just smart. As soon as they are out of reach, they just chill, no matter how nuts the dog might be going below. The cat will chill just out of reach. So what I'm highlighting is that a scaredy cat isn't a scared cat or a cat that's scared, a scared cat would throw itself out of a building window just because it doesn't want to a be picked up. Can you picture a cat shaking, fearful of its abusive owner? It doesn't happen.
So for example, when a group is encouring someone, they get called "chicken" first. If the person gets up in response to do it straight away, the group starts calling out "scaredy cat" because they have stepped up like they have no fear but this never works as encouragement, the person is only reminded they don't have 9 lives. When does anyone get called both these names then just go ahead and do the act? I haven't seen it.
However, when someone is called a "chicken", if they aren't,m and they start to explore the idea, they may invision themselves doing it, they are still scared but they go through the possible scenarios, building up courage. The group sees this and they start to yell "Don't be a scaredy cat", meaning do it scared. "Don't be a pussy".
So that's it kiddies, remember. "The more you know, the more you grow".
Wow. I’ll try to remember that next time I’m at my local wakeboard park. Thanks.
@@FromThe3021 I hear ya, but Not exactly, because that implies, don't BE scared. His advice wasn't do be scared, it was like, "That's fine, be scared, do it anyway." So not exactly. I've thought about this a LOT in my life lol.
Thats a great story man. Love it.
Theo is the perfect conduit for Peterson to communicate his ideas through to people who need to hear them
Ain't that the truth
True
Well put, so very true
That’s the reason why Jordan Peterson goes on this podcast. He knows the demographics.
@@j_jones_
I believe he truly enjoys talking with Theo. I rarely see the doc laugh as much as he does with Theo.
Theo calling him doctor is so wholesome
Theo I've never seen Jordan so relaxed and happy with another interviewer as he has been with you 🥰 bless you and your podcast, it's the warmest one about 🙌💛
I really enjoy Theo's respect towards Dr. Peterson, every time he accidently interrupts he quickly apologizes "Sorry Dr. Peterson I didn't mean to interrupt". Not many people give Jordan Peterson the credit of calling him Dr. but Theo never misses a beat, its refreshing. This seemed like not only a discussion, but a therapy session for Theo Von. Loved it.

“The fog is such a business.” Theo

Tom that's well said, he really reminds me of Norm in that regard.
@@paulfroelich1024I can see him being Norm’s son no one knew about. Totally feel that
I love how Peterson puts forward a rhetorical question and Theo just answers them literally haha
"I lost ya there..."
"i might just be real still, I've got low blood pressure" 😆
Theo trying like hell not to say no slick shit.
I'm at the edge of my seat hoping he'll stay keeping it cool too, lol.

"spelunking inside ourselves"
Theo has such a way with words.
Such southern poetry.
th-cam.com/video/skCASUvzF7c/w-d-xo.html
"I'm not the smartest bowl in the...bowl drawer...." -- I think about this statement at least once a month.
That was great.
The first book I took each rule and ruminated on it, taking notes and trying on the behavior until i integrated it then moved on.. It took me months to get through it.
This one I read in one sitting I was so famished for the material.. Then went back and read it again, taking notes and, again beginning to try on the behavior.
The second way was, for me, better because I was able to incorporate more in a shorter time frame.
This man has touched my life profoundly. I am 73 and it is never too late to learn, grow and be a better person.
So glad to have him back. Hope to have the honor of seeing him in person again. Being in a room with a couple thousand people hanging in every word was a truly spiritual experience. That his humility does not allow him to grasp what joy he gives is amazing. He is completely without arrogance or hubris.
Wow
Jordan’s frontal lobe is literally poking out because he is so smart
Explains why the front of my head is so tall but flat
So happy that another person thought this. Feel validated. Lol
I have literally watched his brain grow over the years

@@Btn1136 another one
Theo may not have the vocabulary that Jordan has , but he sure is intuitive. Love them both.
Intelligence is such a funny concept/ word, because there are so many types. Knowledge, creativity, intuition, wisdom, etc
@@garretttringale436 Knowledge is a form of education (not intelligence) and wisdom is a form of knowledge.
@@garretttringale436 Not to mention that intuition is likely just a form of creativity that occurs primarily at the subconscious level.
I think that’s the key both are talking at a high intellectual level
Makes for a great couple, and Theo certainly has a way with words even if he "doesn't have the vocabulary". Some of his descriptions of feelings, emotions or situations are very insightful and witty (well he is a comedian I guess, so that shouldn't be a surprise. But I have never seen any of his work, I only know him because of Jordan Peterson)
You can tell Theo is brimming with his usual absurd jokes and quips as Jordan Peterson talks, but he holds back and respectfully listens so he doesn’t derail the conversation. He’s a very dynamic interviewer/comedian.
Theo, I really appreciate your humility in this conversation. So many people who interview Peterson are "high intellectuals" and seem interested in proving his equal, but you are open and vulnerable and draw out a real joy in him as you talk about your flaws. Very engaging! Makes me feel like if I was lucky enough to talk to Dr. Peterson, he might actually enjoy me too :)
Exactly.
Speaking about his vulnerability and a sense that there is a "person behind this celebrity persona" makes this more relatable and could implement our own situation into this podcast as well. This podcast has shot me up light-years on an idea of "where to start" if you will.. extremely informative and a orfect balance of people like Theo and JP to not make it seem so dense. In both ways.
this is a non negotiable click if i've ever seen one

This has to be the most honest and genuine conversation on the internet. I never knew this would be such an enrapturing listen. Theo and Jordan are a great match to communicate. Theo has a way like I do of simplifying complicated subjects and Jordan’s extensive knowledge and experience coupled with his way of speaking works together so damn well.
Theo is so transparent with his feelings and has good observations. JP seems very intellectually intrigued and impressed by Theo's observations. Such a great podcast!

I love it when Jordan speaks to non-academics because he's not having to compete with another person's pet philosophy and his talk becomes very practical and useful for the common person.
Absolutely. I feel the same way, and I get the vibe that he finds it a relief too. Intellectuals can be so pedantic.
It helps things stay out of politics too. Im ok with politcal or philosophical discussion, but i agree that practicality is most beneficial
@@hi_tech_reptiles Definitely. Despite the topic's vital importance, his warnings about the radical left are actually the least interesting thing he has to offer.
Theo Von is undoubtedly smarter than Jordan Peterson. I don't see how anyone can listen to this and think otherwise
@@hi_tech_reptiles Same here. I like the academic discussion but it tends to stay always in the theoretical realm and every now and then, plain old decision advice is helpful.
I was in tears twice during this...and smiling throughout. i love these two guys right here
"sometimes everything just feels like a lil bit of an exhale"
It's crazy how much of a genius Theo really is
Hadn’t see him so enthusiastic in an interview since he came back. Respect Theo
I think Peterson desires honesty more than anything. Theo is as honest and open as it gets.
Theo seems to be the only interviewer that Jordan has a genuinely good time with, their chemistry is so unexpected and awesome
It’s not as light hearted as their first interview but every bit chock full of wisdom and low key hilarity
Cuz most interviewers just ask him about politics lol
Theo and Dr. Peterson talking....these are some of the most wholesome and beneficial conversations one could listen to.
Man, Theo seems like such a good guy. He's very open and curious, and I think he is someone who genuinely wants to grow and take advice from Jordan. He reminds me of some guys I went to high school with who were definitely goons back in the day but now want to put themselves together and they have really humbled themselves to do it. I find that very commendable. Good for him!
Holy shit this one cuts deep. Got kicked out of me and the ex's (of 6 years) place because of fog.
Been foggy for years, but now im pursuing a trade; terrifying.
That said, its been the most self gratifying 2 years of my life. Jump into the abyss gang!
Cheers bro
Parachute the abyss! PROUD of you bro . Gang
good to hear you're out of it now. Similar situation here but my girl just ended it yesterday after 6 years together, not sure how to proceed
GANG SHIT BRUH
Love you bro.
Dr. JP is one of the single most influential people on earth today.
So thankful hes recovered.
We love you Dr. JP.
I think that's a failed statement. He never delves too deep, but is good at packaging many, varied concepts into something more edible for people who care about the topics but have no time or will to learn about it on their own, because most of that into isn't nearly as entertaining as Jordon. I feel like he's prodded a LOT of people,, just a little bit. Perhaps enough for them to look further into the concepts themselves... People can love or hate him, but I think it/'s getting harder to sell the story that he's a harmful influence, Nothing he suggests is anything other than beneficial to one's life. Lol seems like they gave on on trying to label him alt right, as they did years ago and failed miserably. I don't always agree with JP but making this stuff more accessible is arguably more important than any of the ideas he speaks on.
@@JunkBondTrader ....shut up.
He's not even close to being one of the 'most influential people on earth'.
You live in a bubble.
@@goosenuggets9693 sick
mad respect for making him laugh multiple times here when he explicitly states every other pod he's in bad shape. I think not many could gift him that in this Situation.
Benzos are bad

jordan is a drama queen have u seen the way he is in his own home the way he gets treated like a king by his ever so submissive wife and his control freak of a daughter u can literally see the dollar signs from her fathers millions in her eyes!
@@deeppete1557 lol sounds like you've been consuming the soy
@@chrisgould101 lol You too kid all the love
@@deeppete1557 i doubt your qualified to speak on their family dynamic.
It's the little "I hate Satan..." that comes out of Theo @ 1:40:42 for me. Don't ever doubt the Light in you bro. You're bringing tremendous joy to countless people and while it's saddening to see how hard it is for you to find peace and happiness, the way you're being transparent about it and share your struggle with the world is profoundly helping to all of us who feels the same way. Love you Theo

Ooh! Ooh! Now repeat the joke about people reading self-help books!

It's all shit until you lose your shit.
Welcome Back Mr. Peterson! You are a treasure and a beautiful human being.
Dr. Peterson
I thought people where just being nice when I read the comments before watching because both Jordan and Theo are (deservingly) well loved, but after watching this is one of the deepest interviews I've seen in quite a while. Theo hits of the points in Jordan's books while adding his own questions or comments and they're so well spoken and metered I think it even takes Jordan aback at times.
Cheers Theo, thanks for this. It genuinely helped me with some shit.
JP seems to be making rapid progress in how comfortable he is talking. A couple of weeks ago he was really struggling with the longer sentences but in this chat he seems almost as he was pre-benzos
Theo is head and shoulders above everyone else who has interviewed Peterson. Respectful, original/unique questions, and gets *new* and thoughtful ideas out of JP. That is both a huge compliment to Theo and a giant condemnation of mainstream media.
Well said
True...theo is very honest, vulnerable, charming, modest, humble...honest and in touch 👍
Was just thinking this.
Theo blew my mind here...
Agreed. Theo seems to bring out a side of JBP that few others can. I think Theo's humor and sincerity resonate with Peterson.
Man I missed Peterson, I can't tell if he's cold reading society or just nailing my issues. Glad to see him looking like his old self again.
@@jaxon19kira I can’t say I’ve noticed that, but I mean he’s had a shit time being on the brink of death I would assume no one would come out of that the same person as who went in. He seems very mentally sound considering all he’s been through
@@jaxon19kira I think there is a difference too, even Jordan clearly claims in many other recent videos he struggles immensely every day and isn’t functioning near 100%. Even then, he still shows up. I don’t think any of us are particularly complaining, and I personally appreciate his presence even in his limited capacity now.
I'm glad his make your bed nonsense. Funny how these charlatans can't ever follow their own advice. Hateful man. AND theif own advice didn't extend to his benzo addiction. Funny how that works
@@js280608 At no point did he say he was perfect, try putting ur whole life in the spotlight and see if you slip up?
@@mikecuff8691 I'm not an inspiration to mouth breathers but point taken. I'd he helps you in your life at life he's been useful. Defenitly not my cup of tea. But I'm not the internet personality.
I really appreciate the down to earth questions that Theo asks. I love the chemistry between the two, they are both very open and honest with each other and it makes for a fantastic conversation.
I love when these two get together. I feel like, although they seem so different, their minds work so similarly. They both question things I'd never think to question and delve so deeply into them
“I have low blood pressure.” - Theo; “Let’s forget about that.” - Dr. Peterson.
Literally just scrolled into the comments section to see if anyone noticed that, you're the 2nd comment I see😂
Yeah, that was hilarious. It could have been a skit, it was that funny.
I don't get it 😕
Could you imagine theo being in a JD class as a student.
Clean your dad find the whale
Respect to Theo for being real on his emotions. That's what elevates a Peterson discussion from being philosophical to practical.
Facts
Agree! I love how Theo uses himself as an example but really is vulnerable out it. And through his openness, I can use this more practically. I love the philosophical aspects too. But I really love learning about what I can do to help myself.
Yeah well he gets accused of being too aggressive in interviews but that is usually because the host immediately puts him on the defense and is not interested in a discussion just an argument.
Really cool to see Theo in a serious moment and even more to see Dr. peterson being being interviewed with honest intentions. This conversation was helpful. Thank you both
