0:00.0	Hi, everybody. This is Scott Satt for the Satt Truth. Today I have one of the rare repeat guests, one of the rare people who put on their CV that they were good enough to be invited for a second time, Matt Truth. Professor Eric Kaufman. How are you doing, sir?
0:17.6	God, great. It's good to be here. And I'm glad that I'm one of the Hall of Fame that has
0:23.1	managed to get in more than once. You are indeed. I just checked before we came on,
0:28.5	the last, the first, the inaugural time you came on was April 3rd, 2023. Much has happened since,
0:35.3	which I want to get into, but just for the people who don't know who you are,
0:39.2	you're Professor Eric Kaufman, Professor of Politics at University of Buckingham, which I was fortunate
0:45.2	enough to visit last month. We'll talk about that. And you are also the founder and director
0:51.2	of the Center for Heterodox Social Science, which comes with a new

1:23.6	I think I like to think of it as the companion volume to the parasitic mind and to the new book on suicidal empathy, actually, which is really I'm looking forward to.
1:33.9	Oh, thank you so much.
1:34.9	You know, it's funny because I wake up every morning filled with so much impatience because I am seeing the reaction that people are getting to suicidal empathy, which there I say is even more, you know, or geastic in its furrow than the parasitic mind.
1:52.9	So if this is any good indication, I may be able to retire Newport Beach, California soon.
2:00.4	Anyways, let's get, so let's first begin with, last time you were on two plus years ago,
2:07.0	you were at University of London, you've now moved to the University of Buckingham where
2:11.9	you founded all sorts of new cool things. Tell us about this move and what are some, you know,
