Genuinely laughed out loud more times to this episode than at some standup gigs. Phone calls, shouting through to the missus, absolutely brilliant 😂 When everyone’s podcast performance is so well polished these days, this was genuinely refreshing.
Rory's phenomenal. I can't even put my finger on it, but I could listen for tens of hours of these. I mean **I already have** but I just want more. Would I do podcasting, my life goal would be to get Rory there even once 😂
He actually pulled a wanker move and answered the phone in the middle of a podcast while talking about how he was called a wanker for being on the phone on the street corner years ago lol! hilarious
Americans largely feel that a British accent is sophisticated. Mary be part of the reason I listen to this podcast lol. You also have incredible guests. I’m currently obsessed with Rory and the value he gives in every convo
Just want to say congrats to Chris because this is overall the the most interesting and intellectually honest channels that I can find. Always looking forward to what you are sharing...
Rory is a joy to listen to! His question about how much reducing carbon emissions is in line with human well being is very insightful. I sometimes think the same about climate as a mass hysteria, its worrying that looking at how our institutions have been lately makes it very viable
*Believe in yourself. You are braver than you think and more talented than you know, and capable of more than you can imagine. Keep putting in the work.*
That was so funny, meant to watch for ten minutes and come back later but ended up forced to watch the whole thing at once. Best point of wisdom; to find a good lunch deal at a Michelin star Indian restaurant
The best thing you can do for the environment and your wallet is to make the appliance (car, heater, ac, etc) you have work for as long as possible because the energy it takes to mine, refine, manufacture and transport is decades worth of energy used for operation of the appliance.
Fantastic, one of the best interviews ever seen on TH-cam. Both are in flow from the start - excellent! Also funny how the English can not go on without at least once hitting on us Germans. 😉
Chris, I live in San Antonio, TX just 75 miles south of Austin. If you get the chance, you have to go to Luckenbach, TX. It’s one of the most “Texan” things you can do in the Hill Country. Great live music and the best environment that will make you feel as Texan as it gets. Be safe and have fun! Oh, and I love your show! Been passing the word on to my mates here in the States.
Re the NZ Fisher and Paykel dishwasher … is that design not universal? I’m from NZ and the DishDrawer, as it’s called, has been around for decades, and I’d kind of just assumed that design had been available worldwide. My aunt’s got one. It’s great.
Answers the phone and doesn’t miss a beat. LOL! For anyone in North US and parts of Canada, Mr.Yuk. Sometime in the early 80s. Prevents kids from drinking stuff from under the kitchen sink. Stuie is a Brit because he’s a snooty know it all.
Ingenious individuals that solve one of mankind's many problems while aiming to solve one that may not be real is not the problem. It is politicians tendency to put their foot on the scales, penalizing some and rewarding others. The poor and voiceless are not the ones rewarded.
Electric cars maybe silent now but I've heard in the future you will be able to install something that makes whatever noise you choose, so as soon as the knob head boy racers start buying them it'll be back to noise pollution. Also car's making a noise isn't that safer? How many people will get knocked over because they don't hear anything and just step out without looking, just playing devils advocate here. Another top episode Chris, Rory is great always enjoy listening to him. Hope America is going well mate. Think you got Tim Pool on the wrong day, thought he would have talked to you more about general things especially as you're the first brit on his show.
For Rory: What would be the reaction of tourist who bought tickets for a cruise trip, if when getting on board they’d listen from the speakers that the ship has been redesigned and now travels faster, thus arrives to destination in only 45 minutes…
The fear of needles point he made about anti vaxxing is 100% on point and ive never heard it spoken about before this. I knew several ppl who were perfectly normal and became rabid anti vaxxers and without going into a huge amount of detail here it was definitely a fear or injections driving it. When they were legally required to have the vaccine they were so emotional but having had it they then reverted to normality.
@46:15 "and because they didn't know what they were doing they created something completely unique and distinct .... " gee ... given the opportunity to say a signature line he completely flubs it.
I don’t think they gave Stewie a British accent because he might be gay. I think it’s because the English accent is seen as more eloquent or proper and Stewie is a genius so he has to be well spoken. Similar to how Dexter from Dexter’s lab has a Russian Accent (or whatever it is).
Stewie is based on Rex Harrison; that's why he sounds British. See this clip from Graham Norton with Seth Macfarlane explaining at about 1:18. th-cam.com/video/B6vmGabgzH4/w-d-xo.html
This guy is quite entertaining, but I have doubts about some of his assertions. There's a good percentage of EV owners going back to ice cars. I'm not convinced of the utility of the adaptive cruise control either. It's just something else encouraging drivers to tune out of their driving and dicking around on their phones instead. I want a man portable EMP cannon to shut down the cars of these jackasses that pace the car beside them on the road regardless of speed because they're on their phones and can't bother to focus on a speedometer when they can rely on peripheral vision to pace the car next to them instead.
OMFG - Like, virtually zero people who have some kind of principled opposition to compulsory covid vaccines are afraid of needles. It's almost entirely a personal cost/benefit analysis, a conclusion that the dangers of covid and advantages of the vaccines have been blown way out of proportion in opposite directions, and knowledge that this it's a symbol of the cold war between two hostile tribal-ideological groups. He's smart, he could surely see this if he put his mind to it. Kinda frustrating because he does seem like a generally decent chap. Just one who's happy with... The end to bodily sovereignty and forced medical procedures. And as for that cringe Bill Bailey strawman... Reminds me why I loathe the smug self-congratulation of the English middle classes.

Please get Dave Snowden on.
And maybe then get Dave and Rory on together!
I've never seen anyone take a call in the middle of a podcast, but I love it!
Genuinely laughed out loud more times to this episode than at some standup gigs.
Phone calls, shouting through to the missus, absolutely brilliant 😂
When everyone’s podcast performance is so well polished these days, this was genuinely refreshing.
Bloody great podcast. What a character, the serendipitous timing of the phone call and hilarious expression of topics relevant to the day.
I love that Chris didnt edit it out. I felt a Michael Malice reference there ;-p
Ditto. Enjoyed it quiet a bit. Glad Rory took my call in the middle of this 😉
Rory is a national treasure. It makes me happy knowing people like Rory are among us
*This guy is spectacular. He is one of the most down-to-earth and insightful Brits I've ever heard.*
Rory's phenomenal. I can't even put my finger on it, but I could listen for tens of hours of these. I mean **I already have** but I just want more. Would I do podcasting, my life goal would be to get Rory there even once 😂
Rory is always a good interview. He is very insightful and has a great sense of humor.
I could listen to Rory for weeks about pretty much anything
This should have more views. Rory is sensational.
I love this guy! As an American in New England, I started falling in love with public transit in college when I would take the metro north home.
He actually pulled a wanker move and answered the phone in the middle of a podcast while talking about how he was called a wanker for being on the phone on the street corner years ago lol! hilarious

this guy's insights on human behavior are so spot on. Brilliant!
*Don't be afraid to start all over again.*
*This time you are not starting from scratch.*
*You are starting from experience.* 📚
*Believe in yourself. You are braver than you think and more talented than you know, and capable of more than you can imagine. Keep putting in the work.*
Very true about trains in Britain and drinking.
That was so funny, meant to watch for ten minutes and come back later but ended up forced to watch the whole thing at once. Best point of wisdom; to find a good lunch deal at a Michelin star Indian restaurant
Rory is always a great guest 👌
What a fabulous episode. Great guest! Great conversation! And, bonus, I was howling with laughter. Thoroughly engaging. Thanks very much.
The best thing you can do for the environment and your wallet is to make the appliance (car, heater, ac, etc) you have work for as long as possible because the energy it takes to mine, refine, manufacture and transport is decades worth of energy used for operation of the appliance.
The dishwasher idea is amazing 🤯
Had this on in the car today, cracking me up! 😂 But at the same an interesting episode!
Great guest. Smart, interesting and hilarious.
Chris’ laugh when Rory talks about cheese is adorable. Great episode 👍
Fantastic, one of the best interviews ever seen on TH-cam. Both are in flow from the start - excellent! Also funny how the English can not go on without at least once hitting on us Germans. 😉
45:00 because Stewie is loosely based on Anthony Hopkins character from Silence of the Lambs, I guess
Saw your interview on Ali Abdaal's podcast Chris an it was awesome!
Just saw this program in August 2022 and this is the funniest until now
Great, so now I will have the hedgehog "King of the Road" song in my head for the next week.
Yes! That dishwasher thing is genius. I want that.
Chris, I live in San Antonio, TX just 75 miles south of Austin. If you get the chance, you have to go to Luckenbach, TX. It’s one of the most “Texan” things you can do in the Hill Country. Great live music and the best environment that will make you feel as Texan as it gets. Be safe and have fun!
Oh, and I love your show! Been passing the word on to my mates here in the States.
Idk why it makes me gleeful imagining Chris going to Rory’s house for family dinner 😂
I'd say it's chaos 😂
Re the NZ Fisher and Paykel dishwasher … is that design not universal? I’m from NZ and the DishDrawer, as it’s called, has been around for decades, and I’d kind of just assumed that design had been available worldwide. My aunt’s got one. It’s great.
I came for the video for this moment 14:00 😂😂😂😂😂
Haha same. Listened on the pod then came to watch it unfold with video
Answers the phone and doesn’t miss a beat. LOL!
For anyone in North US and parts of Canada, Mr.Yuk. Sometime in the early 80s. Prevents kids from drinking stuff from under the kitchen sink.
Stuie is a Brit because he’s a snooty know it all.
What a lad! This guy is a fucking character! 😂😂😂😂😂
As someone from London, I really hope london residents are exempt from having to buy an EV, common sense laws for different areas
Great episode!
Brilliant
Duel purpose coffee shop and cocktail bar. In France they call them Cafés.

Its not salt crystals in cheese, it's left-handed lactose which crystalises out before right -handed
This guy has some interesting TEDx talks.
How’s this not got more views

wow thats interesting
Stewie has a brit accent because we Americans associate it with intelligence

gee ... given the opportunity to say a signature line he completely flubs it.
The tailgaiting, undertaking, aggressive drivers have moved away from BMWs and taken up Mustangs... just like Rory! :D
In the US?
Why can't you just use the same washer?
The dishdrawer rules.

Take that Bob, ya bastard! 😂
Full unedited podcasts 😆
Rory Sutherland's usually entertaining however plugging this new book seems like a challenge.

Gas cars aren't just loud, but they also stink

Stewie Griffin isn’t gay bro 🤦🏻♂️
Love the way he's abusing his camera with his boisterousness - keeps going in and out of focus and rocking back and forward - be doesn't give a fuck.
Other than the very poor takes on masks and the vax it was pretty good

I’m a huge Rory Sutherland fan but was genuinely bewildered how he couldn’t see a sane point of view from ‘the other side’ on masks and vaccines.
