Episode 122: The Fall of Jordan Peterson

Jordan Peterson appears of late to be a shadow of the man he once was, specifically in relation to the masculine strongman who took on C16 in Canada during the late 2010s. Peterson is in an odd position as a conservative figure, yet blatantly a radical subjectivist, leading him into the peculiar stance of being a postmodern anti-postmodernist. We discuss his bouts of crying on TV, how Peterson is an odd fit with the Daily Wire, the tendency of claiming feminist talking points after we've been proved right, Peterson’s Jungian conception of god, and how his naive advice for women was reality tested by his daughter Mikhaila, yielding very poor results.
