Hey folks, welcome to another episode of the Dark Horse Podcast. I'm your host, Brett Weinstein.

0:05.6

And with me today via remote link is my good friend Douglas Murray. Welcome Douglas.

0:10.9

Great to be with you, Brett.

0:12.5

Well, I'm really glad you agreed to join me for this and I'm really looking forward to the conversation.

0:18.1

I should confess up front that I have not read your book, but let me tell you something.

0:25.2

I did something better. I had you read your book to me.

0:29.6

Now in this case, the audiobook is read by you and while that's a lovely option in many cases,

0:37.1

your voice is so resonant and your choice of wording and diction is so precise and careful

0:46.8

that having you read it is even more delightful than reading it on the page. So for those of you

1:26.4

obviously thoroughly steeped in the various contradictions of intersectionality and the result of

1:32.8

what happens when they're deployed into the world. However, I do think that your book is potentially

1:42.4

revolutionary from the point of view of steering our way out of the mess that we find ourselves in.

1:49.0

It was really so brilliantly argued and so thorough and so careful. I mean, you really bend over

1:58.8

backwards to look into these matters and let them indict themselves rather than caricaturing

2:06.0

the arguments on the other side, for example. So thank you for writing it for one thing and

2:11.1

it has my strongest recommendation for people to pick it up. Whatever sides of these issues they

2:16.9

find themselves on, it is well worth us engaging. Well, thank you very much for that. Delighted,
