🎉 now Glenn?! ❤❤ Keep up the awesome interviews. I just love… conversations. Cordial, differing perspectives thoughtful, conversations, without the PC dogma. I’m satisfied here.
I love listening to Glenn Loury and John McWhorter on the Glenn Show. I was wondering if you could invite Jason Damian Hill or Wilfred Reilly on your show. I listened to Mr. Hill on Michael Shermer's Skeptic podcast and found him truly fascinating. You know, Mr. Peter Boghossian, what would really set this show to be my favorite is also inviting and talking to heterodox scholar and economist Thomas Sowell. I know he won't do interviews but crossing my fingers that he can impart on your audience his wisdom and knowledge.
Love Glenn. He and Thomas Sowell really changed my view of economic freedom and the unintended harms that almost inevitably come as a result of government intervention with "good intentions."
@@Ajax-wo3gt From the government, no. Consider politics as a game of evolutionary selection against evolutionary pressure. The system dictates that people in political power will necessarily be selfish psychopaths almost always. But the low IQ plebs sometimes have good intention. Many people want "free" health care for everyone, because they do not understand that there is no free lunch, and they do not understand the problems that their naive pet ideas bring.
This is the perfect podcast for me, been a fan of Mr Loury for the longest time and Peter Boghossian is my favourite cultural critic, so thanks very much.
We are past the point of no return. Less than half the newborns in the US are white, and most of them have low IQ parents. In Europe half of all white women do not give birth to children, and those who do, give birth to their first child at the age of 35. It's game over. China, middle east, india, etc. will not be kind masters to North America, Japan, Europe, etc.
Great interview. I didn't realize how empathetic Peter was. He noticed how somber the first questions were making Glen, and switched topics to lighter personal matters instinctively. Its just lovely being able to be a fly on the wall for these conversations. Thank you.
I've been watching Glenn and John for 4 years and haven't missed an episode; they should be watched and read, more widely than they are,so thank you Peter for having Glenn on, his voice needs boosting!
This discussion is refreshing to my soul. Wrestling with problems of society and culture with reason. No easy solutions to identified problems. As a believer and follower of Jesus this helps me understand the importance of the values our nation. Importance of listening to each other with respect.
I've heard Glenn speak before, and he is a very intelligent person. Reasonable too! I'm very much looking forward to your guys's conversation, as I admire both of you intellectually.
Thanks for asking about his personal life. I listen to the Glen show sometimes and i feel like I never hear much about his family dynamic. I for one find it interesting.
Hearing Glenn talk about how much he loves LouJuan brought the tears to my eyes. Even though they have to work so hard on it, it is so worth it for them to share life together.
I came across Professor Loury only in the last year but I have quickly come to appreciate his vast knowledge, intellectual honesty and clear thinking. In my book he is up there with Thomas Sowell as an intellectual giant among black conservative people. What a roll model.
Oh how amazing to listen to two people have a heartfelt conversation about things that matter. It's a salve for these troubled times. Thanks to both of you wonderful gentlemen!!
I'm a long time listener of Glenn and John. Thank you Peter for the delightful interview. There were some unexpected turns here that make this unique conversation stand out for those of us familiar with many of Prof. Loury's usual topics and perspectives.
We are all so lucky to be living alongside minds like Glenn and Peter. Why is there zero people in our government that are reasonable and smart like these two? Who in the hell are we voting for??
Well, it’s always between Giant Douche and Shit Sandwich. Doesn’t matter what they’re running for, senate, congress, state rep, state senate…. Doesn’t matter the position. That said, I am a trump fan because he makes people that hate me sooooo angry.
"Why *are*..." And the reason is because in a democracy, the politicians must appeal to the average in order to get the most votes, so they generally aren't far from the average themselves. Exceptionally intelligent people generally see the world much differently than the average person and thus have many ideas which do not appeal to the average voter. Additionally, highly intelligent people are less willing to compromise their beliefs to gain the favor of others, so playing politics is of no interest to them.
I used to be an English instructor at a university in a majority black city in the south. My students had never been exposed to Glenn Loury, Shelby Steele, or John McWhorter, so I taught them along with bell hooks, Angela Davis, and Ruth Wilson Gilmore for my upper-level composition and rhetoric classes, along with the golden oldies (Kant, Descartes, etc.). It was wonderful to see my students turning over these ideas, judging them, rejecting them, accepting them, debating them, really thinking about them. Dr. Loury was especially empowering for several young black men in my classes. His ideas helped many of them to recognize that they actually DO have power in American society, and not just for their entertainment value (football, hip hop etc.), but for their minds. That being smart can be powerful and isn't something to be ashamed of. I hope that Dr. Loury knows that he has made a real and tangible difference in many, many young lives.
Unfortunately, NO BLACK PEOPLE outside of the shallow walls of academia have heard of Glenn Lowry, John McWhorter or even bell hooks and it is THEIR FAULT because they have NOT reached out or reached back to the impoverished, segregated Black communities they come from!
I don’t live around a lot of Black people and my experience with them is generally good although there has been a great deal of tension in the last few years as I am an open Trump supporter. Glenn and his buddy John have these regular conversations that keep me grounded. I’m not gonna become racist because of these experiences, even though it would be easy to do so. My America has us all in it and at the table even though some brothers might be more adversarial towards others than they should be. We are all going to eat together dammit!
I live in Philly and am in close contact. The despicable things I get called on a daily basis, simply for existing is exhausting. The things I see on a daily basis makes me disgusted. Bags of fast food trash right out the car window driving down the street. Throwing chicken wing bones all over the sidewalk. Demanding money, cigarettes even though I don’t smoke, 150 dirt bikes doing wheelies and ignoring all traffic, kicking cars as they pass by you. Sucker punching elderly Asians. Sucker punching elderly white women. Playing music as loud as possible on trains and busses. Somehow their lot is due to systemic whatever, or that’s the excuse. But the police chief is black, city hall is black, we have a white mayor now, but had black mayors for decades before. Don’t know how “systemic” is even possible in this city. I don’t hate, but I keep clear. I know it’s not all, but it is a vast majority.
@@ExtremelyRightWingit’s always the people who aren’t in contact that say crap like that. They should move to Philly for a year and see if they still hold that view.
I hate that the woke brigade is causing so much division 💔 I 100% blame the neutered "soft on crime" justice system, discriminatory affirmative action, and pushing this divisive rhetoric that White/Asian = BAD and Black = BEYOND REPROACH. It disgusts me. There are upstanding, good black people in Philly (or Baltimore, where I've lived), they're just hiding away from the street crime. They hate it even more than we do, because it's destroying their families and communities.
You don't have to be a racist to live in reality.. And the reality is that people of certain ethnicities are far less likely to be quality humans. Glenn (by his old age) became a stellar human being, Sowell is god, they are some of the best humanity has to offer, but that does not change said reality. Europe has a similar issue with the roma (indian immigrants from centuries ago). They are worse, but have lower body size and muscle mass, and almost no outstandingly good specimens.
Years ago, I had an aha moment listening to Glenn in conversation with John McWhorter. Glenn dispelled, for me, the myth that crime is largely the result of poverty. He asked what it would take for you to put a gun against someone’s head.
Glenn's is amazing I like that with both Glenn and John you asked them questions from their disciplines because I always want to hear them talk about that
Thank you for interviewing “Grandpa Glenn!” John McWhorter’s work brought me to Glenn and their work together brought me to Shelby Steele. Overall they’ve deepened my knowledge and understanding and I’m forever grateful for coming across them! And you Peter have earned my respect as well. I love the work with Billboard Chris. I worked in a treatment center with a lot of trans-identifying teens for almost 7 years. It was sad to see so many autistic girls, so sick, demanding that their pronouns be respected. I spoke up to my co-workers about the history of “gender ideology” and why it’s so harmful, some listened and dug deeper, others argued. Please keep up your work, it will save lives!
Those are 3 cool cats. But the Cat in Chief is definitely Thomas Sowell. In case you have not looked into Sowell, count yourself lucky, as you are in for a great adventure.
The one thing I sympathize with about the student loan relief is how many 18 year olds right out of high school who were told a degree is absolutely crucial and who have no real concept of debt or adult life and just do what they’re told is the right thing. We’re not properly preparing kids in high school to make that type of commitment.
Definitely. And we are selling them garbage. What they buy with the student loan generally could be transmitted into their brain in higher quality over the internet via digital books, digital lectures, videos, gamified learning applications. Udemy, duolingo, and others do it so much better. And then we did not talk about how in that astronomical price are also included bullshit, like salary for the diversity inclusion equity office, and so on.
Your comments on the national debt the cost of servicing it are worth expanding upon with the right guest(s). Because of careless spending we are ceding our global advantage, binding our children to a perilous future, and forsaking our responsibilities. This should be our primary frustration with our elites/leadership. The have abjectly failed at their fiduciary responsibilities with our tax dollars and spending. We can only “grow” our way out of this situation. We should anticipate WEF guidance that prohibits this path and pushback mightily. Great discussion
It's not the leadership that has failed the people. It's the people who are failures. Low IQ genetic degenerates have the same voting power as you. Cannibals have the same voting power as you.

Peter! So excited about this interview. Huge Glenn fan, could listen to him all day long. You, Glenn, John McWhorter, Colman Hughes, as well as Helen Joyce are some of my favorite intellectuals. Loving the channel!
I appreciate you editing in the covers of book suggestions on screen, makes them easier to find and I have started reading every book someone suggests to me 😂 Love Glenn and John I hope he is with us for a very long time
I can't believe I've read a book by an author that Glenn Loury talks about. I haven't read "An American Martyr in Persia' - but I have read "Zealot". I can highly recommend it!
I was born in the US, but grew up overseas. When I transferred to Rutgers they tested my English and determined that I needed to take a precursor to composition 101. During one of the breaks in that class two African American students sitting behind me started talking about how they might lose their pel grant because they were failing everything. They went on to talk about all the partying they were doing that was affecting their grades and they had no intention to stop partying. This speaks to what Glenn was saying about the problem with perpetuating affirmative action. These students had such a sense of entitlement that they didn't care about the money tax payers were spending to send them to college. They had been low performers their entire lives and would continue to be. I have nothing against pel grants, I was on one myself. But I worked hard and graduated. These students got admitted and were granted pel grants just because of the color of their skin.
@@slimjimbonko6549 and yet you have internet or a cell phone. You failed to follow what I was saying so at least the part about not getting an education was true.
I am a fan of Glenn, one of my favorite intellectuals. Nice to meet you Pete, I think I'll stick around and get to know you. I look forward to the knowledge you have to share.
I highly recommend Glenn's writing on Substack: glennloury.substack.com/
🎉 now Glenn?! ❤❤
Keep up the awesome interviews. I just love… conversations. Cordial, differing perspectives thoughtful, conversations, without the PC dogma. I’m satisfied here.
Looking forward to this discussion!
1:03:50
That's the final straw! Now I have to share this because the wisdom is too important not to share!
I love listening to Glenn Loury and John McWhorter on the Glenn Show. I was wondering if you could invite Jason Damian Hill or Wilfred Reilly on your show. I listened to Mr. Hill on Michael Shermer's Skeptic podcast and found him truly fascinating.

Never clicked faster on one of your interviews. Glenn Loury is a voice of reason in an unreasonable world
Amen to that
Precisely
Same!!
That's just a fact!
That's just a fact.
Same -
Love Glenn. He and Thomas Sowell really changed my view of economic freedom and the unintended harms that almost inevitably come as a result of government intervention with "good intentions."
Question is, are the intentions “good”?
@@Ajax-wo3gt
From the government, no. Consider politics as a game of evolutionary selection against evolutionary pressure. The system dictates that people in political power will necessarily be selfish psychopaths almost always. But the low IQ plebs sometimes have good intention.

@@Ajax-wo3gtid say they are not but youd never get someone admit it on record
Glenn Loury is spot on with regards to affirmative action.
I am blown away by the insight and wisdom of this man.
The questions are so intelligent. I wish more interviews were like this.
Glenn is such a powerhouse intellectual! Great podcast :)
Glenn is truly amazing.
I love Glenn. I’ve been listening to his show for 3 years now and always love to see him interviewed. Good job, Peter!
I’m delighted you enjoyed our conversation.
Glenn Lowry is a complete and total intellectual titan. He is brilliant and decent. He is the best of the intellectual elite.
Best interview with Glen ever. You got to know the man on a personal level!! He is everything I hoped he’d be. Mad respect for both of you
This is the perfect podcast for me, been a fan of Mr Loury for the longest time and Peter Boghossian is my favourite cultural critic, so thanks very much.
Thank you!
Likewise! They’re treasures!
The seriousness in his voice gives me chills. He truly understands how terrifying the future is if something doesn’t change

I sensed the same from the general tenor of his speech.
I noticed this too. So much sincerity in his voice. So much truth!
Whoot! Two of my favorite intellectuals in conversation! I ❤️ you both. Thank you! 🙏🏾🇺🇸❤️
Thank you!
Nice. Glenn is great.
I love these 2men even more after this wonderful interview
Mr. Lowry is a good man, always worth a serious listen. Thanks.

It is amazing to see 2 podcast legends together having a conversation about the issues of our times.
Thank you
What a streak you have been on, Peter! Sending love from a fellow Neanderthal (in Utah)
I watch the Glenn Show on a regular basis. Love listening to him speak. So insightful.
Glen is a treasure. 👍
Agreed!
Love listening to Glenn -found him and the great Thomas sowell during Covid -they changed me -left the left
Refreshing voices of reason will encourage us all to do better.Thank you, gentlemen.

@@slimjimbonko6549agree. What thoughts can we consider regards to implementing?
What a great man. Very inspiring. I have subscribed to his channel! Thank you Peter
Fantastic!
I feel smarter for having listened to these two brilliant minds. Thank you.
You're both great people. Much love.
Never tire Glenn! (And never argue with your wife, especially with such good food on the line! )
I've heard Glenn speak before, and he is a very intelligent person. Reasonable too! I'm very much looking forward to your guys's conversation, as I admire both of you intellectually.
Glenn is amazing. True gravitas.

Glenn is the best.
Poignant as ever. Love Glenn.
Agreed!
My heart to Glenn. Even before the conversation about his life, I felt some sadness, or tiredness in his spirit. ❤️
Glenn Loury. Legend. American treasure. 💚
I ove Glenn! Im excited to watch this.
Love this guy. Lovely man.
Hearing Glenn talk about how much he loves LouJuan brought the tears to my eyes. Even though they have to work so hard on it, it is so worth it for them to share life together.

Honestly I think he is more of an intellectual giant than mr Sowell. Also I recently heard a rumor that they do not get along.
Love Loury - he nails it every time.
Wonderful conversation. Bravo
Thank you!
I’m not conservative but I love listening to conversations w/ Glen
Best guests!
More people need to hear Glenn Loury.
Oh how amazing to listen to two people have a heartfelt conversation about things that matter. It's a salve for these troubled times. Thanks to both of you wonderful gentlemen!!

Thanks!
LATE ADMISSIONS sounds absolutely epic
An amazing human being and academic. We are fortunate as a nation to have him
The one thing I sympathize with about the student loan relief is how many 18 year olds right out of high school who were told a degree is absolutely crucial and who have no real concept of debt or adult life and just do what they’re told is the right thing. We’re not properly preparing kids in high school to make that type of commitment.
Definitely.
And we are selling them garbage. What they buy with the student loan generally could be transmitted into their brain in higher quality over the internet via digital books, digital lectures, videos, gamified learning applications. Udemy, duolingo, and others do it so much better.
And then we did not talk about how in that astronomical price are also included bullshit, like salary for the diversity inclusion equity office, and so on.
Your comments on the national debt the cost of servicing it are worth expanding upon with the right guest(s). Because of careless spending we are ceding our global advantage, binding our children to a perilous future, and forsaking our responsibilities. This should be our primary frustration with our elites/leadership. The have abjectly failed at their fiduciary responsibilities with our tax dollars and spending. We can only “grow” our way out of this situation. We should anticipate WEF guidance that prohibits this path and pushback mightily.
Great discussion
It's not the leadership that has failed the people.
It's the people who are failures.
Low IQ genetic degenerates have the same voting power as you. Cannibals have the same voting power as you. And those people will keep electing people who lie, cheat and steal. Psychopathic, cannibalistic leaders are an obligate outcome of democracy. It will never be any different. Wiping a tear or two about incompetent leaders is like flogging the sea. You won't change a huge body of water rendered by the laws of physics via a whip, and you will not change the obligatory outcome of democracy by being frustrated at elected leadership.
Glenn is a towering figure! I've listened to many interviews of him, but there was a lot of interesting new ground covered here. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I can never get enough Glenn content. Great interview.
Thank you!
Excellent discussion. 2 of my favorite heterodox intellectuals!

Thank you so much. I really appreciate that.
I want to think Glenn for his recommendation of the book a certain ambiguity. I purchased it and I'm enjoying it very much.
Wonderful interview. Insightful - got to know Glenn as a person better.
Wow, the interview I'm looking forward to
I appreciate you editing in the covers of book suggestions on screen, makes them easier to find and I have started reading every book someone suggests to me 😂

I can't believe I've read a book by an author that Glenn Loury talks about. I haven't read "An American Martyr in Persia' - but I have read "Zealot". I can highly recommend it!
Heavy hitter thinker in the room!! Get it Glenn.
I think all we can do is encourage good behavior and make the case. If the message is spread wide enough it will improve over time.
Peter, I'm really thankful for your content. I always look forward to new episodes!
Thank you!
Really great conversation. I love that you asked Glenn about personal things and he was comfortable enough to discuss them.
I’m a huge fan! Looking forward to this one!
Great questions. I love how Peter is asking how he copes with the stress of dealing with this crazy environment and nasty e mails.
"There are no solutions, there are only tradeoffs." Thomas Sowell. Seems like an economic principle to me.
As a graduate student i wish i could just have a beer and convo with peter. Whenever you are in FL again i hope to catch a speech/talk of yours.
