In this lecture, I continue my discussion of the archaic stories at the beginning of Genesis, including Cain and Abel, and the flood story of Noah (the return of chaos), and the story of the Tower of Babel (which I am reading as a very old warning about the danger of erecting something akin to a totalitarian/utopian secular state -- so that is pathological order).
Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down with author and speaker Tor Nørretranders. They discuss the entropy of emotion, the nature of pointlessness, the over-civilization of societal structures, how relationships shape perception, and why play might be the antithesis to tyranny.
Tor Nørretranders is an independent author, thinker and speaker based in Denmark, serving an international audience. He has published over 30 books on topics ranging from society to human consciousness.

This is the first Big Ideas Lecture I completed, back in 2002. I read a book for very young children by Jack Kent called "There's no Such Thing as a Dragon" to a group of University of Toronto alumni (most over 65). I explained what it meant: Pay attention -- or else.

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson and Newt Gingrich discuss the state of conservative politics, why the young generation is drawn to it now more than ever, and how across demographics, big changes are in store following the midterm elections.
Speaker Newt Gingrich is Chairman of Gingrich 360, a multimedia production and consulting company based in Arlington, Virginia. As former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Gingrich is well known as the architect of the “Contract with America” that led the Republican Party to victory in 1994, creating the first conservative majority in the House in 40 years. He was a Republican candidate for President of the United States in 2012. Gingrich is a Fox News contributor, podcast host (Newt’s World), and syndicated columnist. He is the author of 41 books, including 18 fiction and nonfiction New York Times bestsellers. His latest books include Beyond Biden: Rebuilding the America We Love and Trump and the American Future: Solving the Great Problems of Our Time.

I spoke at a Heritage Foundation event in New York City in April 2019. Genevieve Wood and I discussed reasons for the apparently increasing attractiveness of socialist ideas in America and the (countervailing) importance and meaningful of personal responsibility, as well as considering why communicating that import appears to be appealing to such a large number of people.
You can also listen to the interview on The Heritage Events Podcast (http://bit.ly/2UQokcM). And, you can read what Heritage president Kay Coles James has to say to the younger generation about socialism here: https://herit.ag/2GxxbXc
The full program, which includes an address by the Heritage Foundation President Kay Cole James is available here at the Heritage Foundation YouTube Channel: http://bit.ly/2VhTvNF (as is the lecture that I am posting here, on my channel, now).

About a month ago Ezra Levant and the people at RebelMedia set up an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign to support my lab's research after my grant funding application was denied by the Canadian Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council. That campaign (http://bit.ly/2pS0knc) ends in 16 hours, as of 10:30 AM Saturday May 6/17.
We are studying the personality basis of political belief (including political correctness), among other things, explained briefly in this video.
Thank you to Mr. Levant and all of the 2500 people who contributed more than $180,000 to this campaign. It is much appreciated and we will do our best to put it to good, practical use.
