| 0:00.0 | 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 |
| 0:53.6 | who enjoy that sort of thing, I would highly recommend the audio version of this book, |
| 0:57.8 | which Douglas reads and I would suggest at least go through a few chapters at regular speed so |
| 1:02.4 | you can hear just how carefully put together this lovely book is. I also want to say a couple |
| 1:10.7 | things about this book and maybe set the discussion in a particular direction. In some ways, |
| 1:18.8 | I didn't need this book because my life, its trajectory has put me in a circumstance that I'm |
| 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, |
