Summary
For the first Uncomfortable Conversations live tour, Douglas Murray joined Josh in conversation on a sold-out five-city tour. This is the audio of the matinee show in Sydney, which was recorded live from the audience while protesters tried to make as much noise as they could outside. So our most sincere apologies for the quality of the audio, however, the YouTube shows were recorded with proper equipment and sound great!
Whether you agree or disagree with him, Douglas is one of the most important public intellectuals today. A journalist and bestselling author, he tackles controversial issues head on like nobody else.
Two of the live shows will be posted on YouTube (you won't hear those here to avoid duplication, so be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel). Enjoy the intellectual rumble.
To keep on top of every gem we release, and for ad-free episodes which include Q&A's and other bonus goodies, be sure you're subscribed at https://uncomfortableconversations.substack.com/subscribe

| 0:00.0 | Gahey, humans. Welcome to the safe space for dangerous ideas. And before you put your phone back in your pocket after pressing play on this podcast, I want you to open the YouTube page for a very good reason. So go to open your browser and search for Josh Z-Zeps YouTube. That's S-Z-EPS YouTube, because this is the last piece of audio of the Douglas |
| 0:23.2 | Murray tour that you're going to get. |
| 0:24.9 | But two of the shows were filmed, and instead of inundating you with endless Douglas |
| 0:31.5 | Murray content, which could get a bit laborious, much as we love Mr. Murray, We thought we'd put two of the video, professionally shot video versions of the live show on YouTube, which are completely different content from anything that you'll hear in the podcast feed. Whether or not you're interested in that, you should be interested in the existence of, oh, look, there's a Cucaburra. Sorry, that's not, I'm literally, that's not |
| 0:55.2 | part of my spiel. I'm on holiday at the moment. I'm on the south coast of New South Wales, |
| 0:59.9 | and a big kookaburra has just flown down right next to me and right outside the window |
| 1:04.1 | is smashing a massive insect in his beak against the side of a pole and has just swallowed it. |
| 1:12.2 | So that's a little slice of real life coming to you from the south coast of New South Wales. |
| 1:18.3 | Nonetheless, the reason why you should be subscribed to the YouTube channel, and your subscription |
| 1:22.1 | is easy because you're probably logged into your Google or Gmail anyway in your browser. |
| 1:26.8 | So they own YouTube and therefore |
| 1:29.4 | you just press subscribe. It's a one-click thing. You have to faf around with credit cards |
| 1:33.3 | and whatnot. The reason you want that is because increasingly we're going to be putting up |
| 1:37.2 | video content that does not exist exclusively on the podcast and that includes you know, it includes extra stuff on YouTube. |
| 1:47.0 | It's just a way of diversifying this. |
| 1:48.6 | Some people prefer to see our faces. |
| 1:50.9 | Some people just like to listen to things on YouTube. |
| 1:53.4 | Just open it in a tab in their browser while they're at work. |
| 1:56.8 | When I was in New York recently, I sat down with Thomas Chatterton Williams, who's fascinating. |
| 2:01.0 | I sat down with Coleman Hughes and Jesse Single outside in a park, and we shot the breeze for over an hour, and it was fabulous. |
| 2:09.6 | That will be released as a podcast, but why wouldn't you want to see it? |
| 2:13.8 | See our faces in the hubbub, the reality, the gritty city of New York. So be part of the |
