This has got to be the most unexpected crossover. But seeing Jordan and Andrew think through these things was really cool!!

[@Travvv94]

Watch the full pod it's like a year or so old

[@eugenijusdolgovas9278]

You weren't paying attention.

Nah the Peterson Ronaldo crossover was more unexpected

[@hershspowerwashservice8277]

@@Travvv94 titled: "Jordan Peterson Shares the Best Major to Get You Laid" that's amazing lmao

[@jamespungello8361]

What's great about this is how Schulz is legitimately thinking this through and asking good questions but he's also a comedian so he has to throw a few jokes here or there but Peterson is SO focused on the topic that the jokes bounce right off him like bullets off Superman.

[@navid535]

It feels so weird when you make the best jokes and the other guy is too into the discussion to give a duck Love them both

[@adamingram9014]

naw Schulz seems drunk and scared

[@adamingram9014]

Schulz is imitating someone that cares and understands haha

[@medinywaw7435]

Bro, Schulz literally has a psych degree from UC berkley

[@Antelopesinsideme]

I love seeing Andrew's brain get picked because he has genuine down to earth questions

[@coal_tactical]

he hides his intelligence but yea i like when he decides to dive into these deeper topics

[@freegame8628]

Great comment, great way to put it...big part of why I enjoy his commentary either than the obvious fact that he's hilarious

[@SkillzKillzBR]

He's an extremely creative person and his creativity and curiosity extend far beyond comedy.

Everybody talking about Peterson and not admiring how good Schultz is at provoking an incredible conversation and playing “the audience”. Bravo brother 👏

4:46 "We are so afraid of power, that we're willing to dispense with greatness entirely..." 🤯🤯🤯

[@Razear]

People that are chasing greatness are chasing competence. People that chase power are corrupted by ulterior motives.

[@dracomessup]

But there are people who get to power because they are competent and then get corrupted by power, so from outset it's difficult to distinguish this..... or that's what I think.

[@Future_looksbright]

I actually forgot about this episode. Worth a rewatch. A fan of both of these gentlemen. ✊

Geez expect to watch a powerful clip, but I end up learning from a great and powerful lesson. Geez. All things have power, but not all things are great. Power is not special, but greatness is unique. My conscience is elevated!

[@mostafatarekadam8861]

Dr Peterson once said: "Speak, vision, and the willingness to confront the terrible unknown, that is what should rule". this clip reminded me of that

[@highestsettings]

Watch enough of his videos and you'll start to notice a lot of repetition like that. I feel like he's made his point by now. He's going as far as he can to spread it, it's just up to people to listen.

[@elinope4745]

The difference between someone seeking power and someone seeking greatness is the difference between seeking freedom and seeking glory. Power breaks your chains, greatness ensures you are remembered.

[@highestsettings]

I'm not sure you've got it right to be honest. Someone seeking power wants to be able to rule over people, someone seeking greatness wants to be able to rule themselves. Both end up with the person being a leader, but one is forced leadership and the other is natural leadership. Seeking power is not the same as seeking freedom. Freedom is personal and individual, it has nothing to do with other people necessarily whilst power inherently does. People are also remembered for being precisely not great too. Charles II of Spain for example. He was remembered for being the opposite of what a king should be.

[@melissadavis225]

Andrew reminds me of a guy I recently dated looks almost exactly like him he's a very funny guy and and very handsome and I love watching Jordan's videos watch daily a lot love how you got Andrew racking his brain ...

Marcus Aurelius is a great example of someone in history who got a ton of power (emperor of prime Rome) and managed to not be corrupted. Stoicism

[@MasteryOrder]

That is indeed true and remarkable at the same time. A great example to look up to. I invite you to explore the videos I share on the Mastery Order Channel if you enjoy ideas about mastery and masculinity. Challenge yourself with some concepts about manhood, explore your masculine potential to the maximum and become the kind of man you would admire. We can only better ourselves together, as men among men, so I invite you to use what I share and, of course, share your own opinions so that others can benefit from them as well. Looking forward to your points of view. All the best to you!

[@LordMisunderstoodSnape]

Sir, you lit up a candle and you showed me the way.

[@PeeGee85]

I think the only way to distinguish greatness from power, is to make sure it can always be challenged. In the case of say the Olympics, this isn't a problem, since everyone is tested the same way every round, and sitting champions don't just get to change the rules. Organisations where whoever is at the top can make sure they stay at the top, without having to prove themselves or being open to challenge, those seem to tend to ossify.

[@dracomessup]

You are on to something 👏

[@telekoadmasu6353]

There is no difference, in the end ppl who are seeking greatness, are seeking power inside them, cuz that will give them access to everything

[@_jow]

greatness in the purest sense need not be challenged, i feel like that's built into the definition. great people do seem to leave themselves open to being challenged if that's what you meant, though.

[@tigizarts1105]

I love the way J. P can expand and also narrow down his thought process. The ability the breakdown complex topics is a sign of greatness and to make people laugh while doing it is omega level skill. So Neil deGrasse is my Jesus or my Franklin Rechards. Coincidentally he is a Jew too😊.

i just became a legit fan of Peterson. his clarity is FIRE. he's not even saying anything complex, but he's incredibly LUCID.

Watch his Maps of Meaning lecture series from 2017.. legit life changing. In his 2016 MoM lecture #1 he starts off by asking the class why they are there and everybody said that they had a friend who told them this class changed their life… his Personality lecture series is incredible too btw

[@DerGoRaN96]

i think people rarely want just power, they want some side product of power, the pride, the ego boost, the illusion/non-illusion of responsablity, the admeration, the abilty to shape something, the control or something else. Just power is a shallow goal, if u just want power u are pridefull and your ego thinks u need it to be worth something or to be better then somebody but i think thats rare. the feeling of power seems more like a reward.

[@mariagarced1013]

You are indeed a great man, Pescador de Hombres. Andrew, has great potential, and I believe he's a good man. He should marry his girlfriend if he isn't already, and become a father. If that's not what he chooses to do, he will indeed become older, and can have a lot of different people on his show in time. He's very intelligent. Gracias, Pescador de Hombres! Te amo!

[@Figjamfishslayer]

We have to get back to individual greatness. Attaining Greatness for the admiration it may bring fouls the image of greatness. It should be a matter of deep, personal pride. Not an ego prop.

[@brodydezeeuw]

[@thebrandfather.]

Love Andrew's mind.

[@luisborges2048]

Of course these two gentlemen had to sit together and have that conversation. Why? Because they are both concerned and intrigued by the truth. The truth is something objective, as much as people wish to think is subjective, it isn't, people can be wrong and most of the time we are. The life long journey of pursuing the truth, that's admirable and it is something we all should aim at.

[@swinnyuk6584]

Separate to what was said in the video, I think that greatness is the ability to be a light to yourself but, at the same time, you’re not arrogant about it and do everything that you can to share your greatness with the world. A true teacher aims for his student to know everything that he does. He holds nothing back, and gives it all away. The world is sorely in need of people like this, IMO. Everybody wants to save the world, but nobody wants to save themselves. When this is your attitude, you only perpetuate a victim mindset, and nothing improves. I guess Jordan’s rule “get your house in order before you criticise the world” is applicable here.

[@swinnyuk6584]

My theory about this is that people who are a light to themselves are light houses. The ships can choose to sail over to them, or not. Those that choose to also become light houses. Thusly, the medicine spreads. This is, imo, how you REALLY make a difference in the world, and anybody is capable of it.

[@brandonbrodbeck6688]

A major problem is that its easier to gain power in a bad way and its also sometimes needed. So people see hey I need to push people around or out of the way in order to make sure if any one has the power its me.

[@VinOptimaxxx]

I assume by 'gaining power in a bad way' you mean through violence, and by 'it's sometimes needed' you mean to overthrow a tyrant. I would argue that in that instance it's justified and therefore not bad, as long as the overthrower doesn't also become a tyrant.

[@jimmcfarland9318]

I have a question: do the great always or often recognize their own greatness, and can this become destabilizing?

[@solaveritas2]

It'a a good question and I don't know the right answer but I'm guessing that more often they recognize their own inadequacies rather than their greatness. This keeps them humble and working towards a higher goal, rather than resting on their laurels of greatness.

[@DeidreaDeWitt]

I would say that the great don't recognize their greatness, but recognize their responsibility to a domain. They're more focused on the domain, how to improve it, how to contribute to it, and how to push themselves in it. This is what makes them admirable to the rest of us, because they're not focused on themselves, but on their responsibilities in the domain instead. The self-sacrifice makes them great.

While listening to this I think of nepotism or “daddy’s money” vs someone who worked for what they got. The former has power but isn’t great. The latter became great and powerful. This is what makes CEO’s hired from within the company and presidents/government with military backgrounds more “admirable” to use Jordan’s word as above.

[@frankcloutier5495]

How do you differentiate between Greatness and the mimickery of Greatness? I think the Greats SHOW you how great they are and why people adulate them whereas someone in a position of power who hasn't achieved any level of greatness will TELL you how and why they're so great (in their mind). An impersonator of greatness will never be able to deliver competence that will meet the expectations that Greatness organically creates. Greatness naturally leads to Power whereas Power does NOT necessarily lead to Greatness

[@thebeezkneez7559]

I believe that it's absolute devotion to an ideal. That ideal in my opinion could even be power. This is why those like Jesus and saints are great but also those like Hitler and Alexander the great are as well. I would however distinguish greatness from good and good is the use of your greatness for the betterment of those around you instead of destruction or chaos. Only those who are both are fit to be kings.
