Why do I have the tendency to get exhausted, hearing him talk and been asked - since almost a decade - in almost every interview about apartheid and race? Was is a mistake to name his biography that? Or more than that, to even write a biography with 30-something and that name? yeah, I think he created himself a straightjacket that he is not really able to get out of. I know this is a much to deep reply, but who cares. 😂

@@JoE_Songs 😂😂😂😂 No worries. I write long replies too. Repeating yourself comes with the territory of being liked by many. When you open up, it is only natural for others to want to know more if they like what you showed them. The issue is, many will have their individualized but similar questions concerning what you opened up about, which will cause the person to often find themselves repeating their statements. I deal with this issue when teaching university students, but I am used to it since it comes with the job. Trevor should be used to it by now. If he is not, then I feel sorry for him.

​@JoE_Songs Really! You're entitled to your thoughts and beliefs. So, I also have the right to disagree. Some of your comments are so disheartening. He has every right to speak on his life experiences, write about them, and feel the way he feels and you have every right to not comprehend but you can't dismiss it, Hello he lived it. You'sound like you're attempting to diminish his life experience and at the same time denigrate him. This is my take away from your comment. But by all means please feel free to correct me if I misinterpreted your comments in anyway.

Trevor, I have had that same thought. Fellow South African, but white, so while I didn't suffer the same as you did, we were dirt poor and had our own issues. The abuse didn't make me who I am, I broke the cycle because I am who I am. But like Bill said, who could I have been without the abuse? I have a 17 year old daughter who reminds me so much of a young me, but I've raised her in a healthy environment and by God this child is going places. How different a life would I have had if I was raised the same? The fact that we are at the mercy of others at our most vulnerable when we are children is something that has always baffled me.

White folks can become wealthy and no longer be treated as less than. Y'all will never experience the dehumanization that us Black folks experience, which perists even if our economic status climbs the rungs of capitalism.

My husband is Kalenjin, from Kenya, and as an American, I spend 50% of my time in Kenya. As soon as I heard that comment I was shocked, because I know for sure that he KNOWS as an African man that there is no such thing as a “Kenyan” language. All over the continent people are born into a tribe and learn the customary language of their tribe (called their mother tongue) and they also learn in school to speak the national language. Kenya has 2 national languages English and Swahili. So Educated Kenyans typically speak at least 3 languages. But if you go into a village (rural area) where many are not as well educated, many people will only speak their mother tongue. I know people from other African countries and have found the same. I think Trevor was just being lazy and did not want to break it down to that degree. But I just can’t let that pass without properly representing my peeps😊

Not saying Trevor is disingenuous or dishonest, but he's mediocre at best as a comedian. And this is not an unpopular opinion as far as I'm concerned. As a host of the daily show, his endless preaching with a condescending tone is very off putting. Only politics, no comedy. In comparison, his predecessor Jon Stewart was much more enjoyable, even though we have a lot to disagree with. My old comment might be somewhat provocative, and I apologize.

Just before this time stamp where is telling the story of listening to his friend talk about the buildup in the shower, I literally nearly started crying because it was SUCH a perfect description, plus he gave a very real tip of what a caring friend or family member can do to help us without judgement. Because the most important part of that story is that Trevor was INVESTED in his friend's problem. He CARED. His whole train of thought that followed was literally about trying to figure out what what happening to his friend and how he might help. But 90% of people just see us go down that rabbit hole and immediately judge us and accuse us of not caring. It was so healing to hear that and I want to send the clip to everyone I know.

Beginning 19:45 Is a fantastic example of the FUNDAMENTAL ATTRIBUTION ERROR. Noah elegantly attributes problems with communication or language as the basis of conflicts all over the world. Noah says, you’re driving down the freeway, someone cuts you off, but they see it as, I saw a gap in the flow of traffic and meant no offense - two very different perspectives. The irony is we all, at one time or another, commit the error and assume the worst in other people rather than give them the benefit of the doubt, as we would like others to give to us. Noah thinks like a wise psychologist / sociologist /mediator / philosopher. Thank you for the many insightful observations shared in this interview!⭐️

I visited for 2 wks last year in various parts: Johannesburg, Durban, Richard’s Bay, Empageni, St. Lucia.. the cuisine is all over the place from breakfast, lunch and dinner. Usually, food is one of the pillars that defines a place but it was hard to understand the country when it came to the food. I did, however enjoy the people, Zulu culture, the singing and just how beautiful the land is.

I agree. We start out strong. Life tests that strength and leaves scars. And then, we have to heal.

this is too short, whenever Trevor speaks it's always too short... I am deeply touched, shocked how much what Trevor said about adhd, childhood experience, relationship, communication resonates with me. wow, I feel seen, understood & at the same time I understand myself more. just wow. thank you both! what a treat! 🤍

My Mother and two brothers have passed away. I imagine they are on a beautiful beach with white sand. My mother is probably having a glass of wine, one of my brothers is drinking a frozen margarita, and my other brother is drinking a cold glass of sweet tea. Some way, it helps me deal with my grief.

17:55 (actually starting a bit before): I've always thought the same re: conflict is a result in 'language' breakdown, which is why I love MBTI (but studying the cognitive functions). It is a framework i can use to better understand and communicate with others. My entire existence -- I believe -- is about understanding people, for whatever reason, so studying how to communicate with different people will always ignite me.
