My admiration for sure is disagreement with co-operation to find common ground without aggression is the most profitable debates. Thanks for showing those who are wise to learn how this can be done. Works in marriages too.

@@antonettprado412 😂😂😂

Most people seem to get caught up in being offensive for the sake of it and forget that it is an avenue to solve problems. Both Sam and Eric are great 'cause they know how to stay focused and on track and not get lost in arguments.

If you like, Sam has lots of great podcast episodes and talks on youtube. It is quite the hallmark of Sam's style that he is able to have tough but calm/amiable conversations.

@@howardhavardramberg7160 I dunno. Sam gets off into the weeds a lot on some tangent he just cannot let go of. To such an extent he has to talk about how dishonest he thought his guest was, in a later podcast.

@@codediporpal that's pretty rare that he does that, like a very small percentage of the time. They get outsized coverage for obvious reasons....Ezra Klein, Ben Affleck, etc get the most attention. But the vast majority of his pods or convos... Even with people he disagrees with.... He doesn't question their integrity or intentions.

Sam Harris is one of my Hallmark idols. Great philosopher, great writer, great atheist/secular spokesman. All with an interesting background in meditation making his ideas particularly distinct from others.

Oh you poor simpleton. You must have voted for trump.

Stephen Leyden Awh you’re adorable.

Ben, did you come to see if anyone had replied to you. Only to find the answer was no. So the best you could do was reply to my comment that only demonstrated how patronizing and stupid u are. Dude, you dont REALLY find these guys intelligent do u. There are professional rightwing ruling class stooges, but given u believe in the RULING CLASS PROPAGANDA, you cant understand that.

Stephen Leyden you’re so cute.

Cute and adorable. Really, thats the best a little mean girl can do. No ideas and clearly no intelligence

Mostly I think his assertions about "what went wrong with our country" is nonsense. I also dont find it particularly courageous, considering there are millions who say the same thing.

@@SolidSiren Ok, you are correct and I change my mind. Eric Wienstein's arguements and beliefs are "nonsense" and millions of people say the same thing. I guess I will start watching CNC like you and believe in the establishment. Good luck with that.

I rather got the feeling that he would have loved to dig deeper but sam wouldn't let him for he had to blurt out every counter-thought or association that sprang to his mind.

Lloyd2112DT its actually one of the only things I really dislike about Eric. I think he’s a really bright guy and has interesting opinions but I think there is a serious downside to speaking with this much analogy and metaphor in your dialogue with someone.

I believe Eric is wise enough to fear the possibility of serious repercussions based on the increasingly barbaric treatment of public figures whose opinions fall outside the zeitgeist. He should be wary of having an example made of him should authoritarianism continue to gain territory in the media and academia.

Hahah it might very well be. And in another arena of entertainment/informative things like this podcast, I say that the line from one of Dave Chappelle’s recent Netflix stand-up specials in which he referred to the exchange between (I don’t want to misspell his name) North Korea’s leader as “rap battles” mocking in particular the (although this particular line wasn’t said in one of his inane Twitter tweets, if I remember correctly) “Fire and fury” comment. It captured my thoughts that I would be quite furious if I - a 29 year old with my whole life and 4 Avatar sequels ahead of me - were to die in the Doomsday Machine (the term coined by, if memory serves, Steven Pinker, to refer to way to the way the nuclear powers of the world have their defensive and offensive systems set up in such a way that if a nuke goes off from any country to another, the before mentioned systems will essentially almost completely automatically start launching nukes in such force that it would be a extinction-level event that Pinker calls the “doomsday machine” that we have constructed) being activated because of Tweets between Donald Trump and North Korea’s leader. At least have it go down on Reddit, if it has to happen in such an awesomely stupid game of chicken Trump played with North Korea considering that they had just built a thermonuclear weapon - whilst until the moment that it was discovered they had it (a discovery that was made initially by Japanese seismologists , not any military or intelligence agency or private contractor that constitutes the U.S. and it’s allies massive apparatus that should’ve been able to detect it) - we treated the North Korean nuke development program as a joke (at least publicly) - and Trump continues to do so. Yet I digress for the rant.

Sam Seder is the best and there is a reason why these two fools never debate.

It helps to have a sounding board. Maybe have some no-name audience insertion schlub who can ask clarifying questions. Of course, Larry Kings are in tragically short supply.

I doubt that would work at all, as much as I like Eric

I have been looking forward to having a place to discuss ideas that Eric brings up in his interviews - a reddit or discussion board where we could have long form discussions and he might decide to participate would be good enough.

@WildSandwich Yes, Ever since I listened to him on Joe Rogan I grow more and more captivated and excited by the ideas he discusses through his point of view. It is as if FINALLY someone publicly exposes a level of understanding in a mode of thinking that I have not yet seen anywhere else and i like it very much.

Eric is the real guest on these

He is probably familiar with the Aristotle quote: “No great mind has ever existed without a touch of madness.”

"TDS." I accept that syndrome with pride. Trump IS terribly deranged, and normal folk SHOULD react adversely to America having a lying psychopath for President. What Trump supporters forget is how many folk with TDS showed up at the polls for mid term elections, and in states like Kentucky, Louisiana and Virginia after that. And there's nothing better than a good case of TDS to bring people to the voting booth come November. Having a healthy case of TDS is a good thing. It's a badge of honor and normalcy.

Rebel Justice people who allow their psyche to be disturbed on that level by anyone need to reassess their priorities for the good of their own mental health.

Tim Frink Sorry, I disagree. That's just being apathetic. That's what our current President is counting on. I'm not buying the gaslight.

Listen to his podcast with his wife #159 on his show "Making Sense". They laugh a lot and it's interesting to hear how the conversation flows with him and his wife.

Could this change be due to his recent return to psychedelics?

I'm only 7 minutes in and I was thinking the exact same thing.

Listen to Sam's podcast with Douglass Murray. Murray goes off on a rant that has Sam nearly crying with laughter.

Because it's not Sam Harris.... try Ben stiller.

So agree, this podcast could've lasted for 5 hours and I'd stay listening.

Glad I'm not the only one. I was on the edge of my seat a few times, but they kept up with the staccato of segues and lost the points.

Agreed. I wanted to get to the bottom of the disagreements. Never got there. Blue balls!

Agreed. .I'm about a third of the way through....and this is certainly interesting. I mainly came via a respect of Sam....but I'm familiar with Eric and have watched him in quite a few formats. But at this point in the podcast...I'm feeling a bit odd about it all. There seem to be quite a few instances where Eric will say something or tacitly imply something that is.....objectively fucking nuts. But he'll do it subtly; 90% of what he says is totally legit and well thought out and intelligent and ethical and rational. But then he'll say something that makes you question _all_ of that. Sam tries to grin through it and push back when necessary with seemingly intentional kid-gloves...almost out of sympathy(?) But it's pretty hard not to notice. Weird fucking podcast.... But I still absolutely appreciate it. It's more interesting than 99% of what's out there.

avedic - If you think Sam was holding back in this podcast go listen to his recent sit down with Bret on the topic of free will and determinism. Was almost painful to listen to. Pretty simple ideas to grasp and Bret’s emotional attachment to Darwinism and Randomness wouldn’t allow for the conversation to go where it should have.

Yeah he forgot he wasn't the guest, here.

Yeah I think on the episode of Sam's show where he has Eric on, Eric credits him with having a larger vocabulary. That does seem to be the case lol

James Botts same! my “Notes” app is spilling over into a second page since starting to binge on stuff like this for the past few days.

Greg Arnold I have a handful of post-it notes on my desk at home mostly of words I’ve picked up from Sam. Sometimes he’ll use a word in a context I’ve never it in before. For example, from his Ted Talk on AI: “let’s that fact *detonate* inside your mind” or “we can’t seem to *marshal* an appropriate response.”

I feel the same way, my fellow KZfaq comment thread interlocutors. Am I even using that right?😆

Orthogonal!

it was a fancy word, but a stupid comment, imo (he was talking about the trump russia stuff for that bit I think, and referring to Trump supporters as lacking some kind of obvious morality that should have steered them away from voting for him, or for condemning him insufficiently at least). The problem with that view is that the version of Trump Sam subscribes to is a strawman. Every time I investigate the various claims against him, I'm underwhelmed at their basis in reality - he called mexicans rapists, he called nazis good people, he bribed ukraine (the latest greatest hit).... I'm just tired of it. If anything, he should be condemned for his false slanders, including the russia stuff - sam has no moral high ground on me.

Can you elaborattttte pls

@@creayt He voted for Clinton? His thoughts on jihadis. His disagreements with Chomsky, Greenwald, Hedges. He is out of his depth with them. Still like Sam however and always worth a listen.
