I emphatically disagree. Experience is the ultimate educator. The wisdom that Jordan Peterson has gained is priceless. His understanding of the human mind has broadened and given him the ability to reach more people. I do not necessarily enjoy this term, but he has truly been “enlightened” in so many ways. It takes such diligent time and effort to know the REAL truth and I see this understanding deepening in the mind of Jordan Peterson as time goes on. Maturity and simplicity go hand-in-hand.

@@AdamA-pm3yn Apparently you don’t understand the language properly because I did corroborate with what Jocko said and how he said it.

Or I could just say “what he said “.

[@thewiseowl5819]

@@AdamA-pm3yn look brother. You, me or anyone with half a brain can dissect what everyone says and find a fault in what someone has said. Especially when talking about any complex issue facing society or an individual. Meaning.... You cannot truly understand where someone is coming from or the degree at which their understanding of a subject is without hearing more than just a couple sentences. Meaning... instead of trying to correct someone’s wording because it doesn’t mesh with your view of how it should be written but you can agree with the intended meaning then just simply say cool. There’s more important things to disagree on. And yes. I do believe that my perspective of being in the military and especially the fact of me being a Chief carries a different weight to the discussion based off of my experience not only in life but the amount of individuals that I’ve interacted with over the years. That’s one of the benefits of being in the military that most individuals will not experience. Meaning.... I’ve dealt with a wider spectrum of people than most people. Served with and led tens of thousands of people from most walks of life. Met and talked to probably around a million people in my lifetime. Visited 67 countries and 42 of the 50 states. My opinion is my opinion and you have to take what anyone says with a grain of thought. It’s why a few cultures revere their older population because of respect and wisdom based on experience. Now to your point, just because someone is transsexual that doesn’t mean that I hold their opinion to a high regard when it comes to them saying it’s ok for everyone to do it. Or that a child should be able to decide what they want to be. I base my opinion on that experience as a Chief who dealt with thousands of young adults that were willing to put their lives on the line but didn’t know who they were themselves. A few of the things you speak of are major contributors to why not only America but the rest of the world is still jacked up. Just like anything in life. You get what you put into it. Meaning... We as a species need to re evaluate what we put into children. Human beings aren’t made to thrive in this type of world. This type of world leads to destruction instead of balance.

You call me a post modernist because I said that I have a higher level of understanding about something or my group has a higher understanding about that something. Correct? You have an understanding of what a post modernist is based in part on what you’ve learned about what a post modernist is. Basically your taking someone else’s idea of what a post modernist is slapping it on people and then patting yourself on the back thinking that you understand when you don’t. Correct? What I’m saying is that you don’t “really understand “ what a post modernist is. This is why you don’t understand what your talking about.... I’m a Chief and yes there is 10s of thousands of Chiefs that don’t understand to the degree of what I understand about knowledge and communication. Try looking at it from this perspective. Take the NFL, there’s thousands of Athletes that played in the NFL. There’s different levels of understanding in the NFL community when it comes to what it takes to be the best mentally and physically in the NFL. Doesn’t take away from the others. It also doesn’t mean that people that played in the NFL are the only ones that know. There’s just certain people that know and understand more. I don’t know where I fall in the spectrum of understanding when it comes to military members. That doesn’t take away from the fact that I have or that my group has which is not a group that’s controversial in today’s world. If anything, my group is comprised with people from every spectrum that the United States has to offer. Many of us haven’t drank the cool aid and understand that it’s what’s inside the individual instead of their gender, skin color or any other label that people use in order to put one group above the other. Meaning.... I’m just a dude that understands too much but at the same time I understand that I don’t know shit myself. There’s too much to know and there’s even more that I don’t know that I should understand it because I haven’t came into contact with it. Meaning.... You don’t know what you don’t know.

@@eljuanchosf Haha, I was literally going to reply the same thing! One visit is not enough!

[@stevenwilliams1805]

I've been ridiculed for rereading books. I just couldn't make these people understand the value of doing so. Looking back, I can't help but imagine these are the kind people who base their opinions solely off a sound bite.

Thanks to Rogan 4-5 years ago, I feel like these guys are now two of my closest friends

[@cluckycluck3053]

Right, that was way back when people used to lok up to Joe Rogan.

[@bladdnun3016]

That's what they call a parasocial relationship.

[@macjameson1930]

Same. I went Joe Rogan - Jocko Willink - Jordan Peterson, and I've followed JP ever since.

[@MrAPCProductions]

Jocko: "I didn't change your life, you did." JBP: "Thanks a lot." No gentlemen, thank you. Sincerely.

[@hariman7727]

I honestly think that Jordan Peterson being able to do these podcasts is giving him life week by week. Going by all that he has said and all that happened in prior podcasts and with the akathisia, the inability to work was draining Jordan horribly. But now he can do something, and further clean up his own room after the mess the side effects of getting off of prescription benzodiazepines (and life) caused.

[@halfassranch8363]

I agree, these two guys can't possibly understand how they affect a dunce like myself.

[@rmp5s]

How do you put sufficient adventure into peace. Man. As a Marine, that's something I wrestle with every day and didn't even know it until right this second. Wow.

God bless

Love you both!! My husband came in while I was listening to this and he just smiled at me. He knows I needed this!

I'm reflecting on how bravery comes in different forms and these are two of the bravest men you can find.

I really appreciate that the comments section is just supportive of people; it’s not troll internet culture, thanks everyone!

[@justingillette8287]

These two have followings of good people. I believe it is proof that their content is truly good. I, like you, am sure grateful to be here among the likes. Thanks everyone again!

[@Rakkis88]

JBP good to see you back in full force. Interviewing a man like Jocko takes no less than 100%. thank you for this.

[@bobjackson7516]

I watch a great many youtube channels. Most make me smarter and more intelligent in some way, shape, or form. These two men are the only ones that make me an overall better human being. Thank you both. I hope to see more collaboration of JBP and Jocko.

[@thomassampson1807]

The idea, of a fresh 2.5 hour podcast with Jordan Peterson and one of his guests, fills me with joy. You just KNOW you're walking away with something helpful.

[@brucelayman110]

Hands down, this is the the most informative and passionate interview I’ve ever seen Jordan do. And it’s the most informative and passionate I’ve ever seen Jocko because Jordan is drilling down into a depth of Jocko I’d never seen or heard before. Simply outstanding!!!

[@DirkGently04]

i actually wish jordan had let jocko talk more... i jordan was just too excited though, lol

[@brucelayman110]

@@DirkGently04 Agreed! Jordan, at times, talked over Jocko. But I think you’re right - Jordan was refreshingly excited! 👍

Way to go brother ❣️💪GET AFTER IT!

[@Jamm3z133]

This might sound odd to say, but these two men embody so many traits I now see in my own father (an ex-service men) that I never would have if it weren't for them. A lot of lessons my father taught me over the years I have better been able to recontextualise and understand as I've grown listening to these men. Now, as a 21 year old, I'm closer with my father than I ever have been. Thank you both

These 2 guys have been major influences in my life and are mentors that I have never met personally. We live in an amazing time of availability of wisdom via the internet. Don't waste your life. Seek truth in reality and not in presupposed dogma. Thanks guys. Keep going and continue to find the rewards of the spirit of freedom that God has given to mankind. 👍😎👍
