Interviews, Podcasts, Discussions, Debates, etc

Thought is would be cool to have thread dedicated to interesting interviews, etc. I am on my phone at the moment but, Dave Rubin interviewed Thomas Sowell, thought people would enjoy it.

Post your favorites.

Oh wow. Thanks for the head’s up. I’ll check it out.

Great idea for a thread. I think a lot of us are into podcasts. It’s a bit more accessible than trying to talk books. Less of a time commitment.

@EmilyQ, you know I’m thinking that talking interviews and podcasts is a bit like your old magazine group. Haha. Lowering the bar. :slight_smile:

“They dive into Dr. Sowell’s Marxist past, free speech on college campuses, the role of government, minimum wage laws, his experience as a black conservative, debunking systemic racism, and more”

“Gad Saad is Professor of Marketing & Concordia University Research Chair in Evolutionary Behavioral Sciences and Darwinian Consumption”

“Dr. Paglia has been warning about the decline and corruption of the modern humanities for decades, and she is a serious critic of the postmodern ethos that currently dominates much of academia. Although she is a committed equity feminist, she firmly opposes the victim/oppressor narrative that dominates much of modern American and British feminism.”

“Sam Harris ​joins Ben Shapiro for a wide-ranging discussion on identity politics, the existence of God, and the Bible’s view of slavery.”

Why do they pause for Rocky training montages?

sorry, not quite sure what you mean?

Rocky always gets my training juices flowing…

I’m giving pointers to a 18yo kid in the gym. Has good attiutude, turns up week in week out, decent work ethic etc. but no athletic base and both frustrated with progress. Also always looking for latest and greatest program on the youtubez and instagram douchebags

Recently gave him a little speech that he just need to focus on straight hard work and once a week to absolutely murder it -deadlifts damn heavy and then a bazillion sets of pushups and pullups type stuff. Gives me a blank stare.

Said just watch Rocky 4 montage twice over before next workout. …now PRs deadlift every week and put on 10lbs in month

Already posted this recently, but who cares…

That’s awesome! First that you have taken him under your wing and are helping him. Second, you found a way to get him some good gains.
You deserve the credit for being cool to a younger guy.
