Summary

Pat was denied two scientific grants because of his supposedly less than stellar diversity, inclusion, and equity statements. Apparently, science is less important than woke ideology.

Nothing of substance was lost so I did not bother to edit it out. _______________________________________ If you appreciate my work and would like to support it: https://subscribestar.com/the-saad-truth https://patreon.com/GadSaad https://paypal.me/GadSaad _______________________________________ This chat was posted earlier today (November 26, 2021) on my YouTube channel as THE SAAD TRUTH_1342: https://youtu.be/mkTAeiRan9w _______________________________________ The Parasitic Mind: How Infectious Ideas Are Killing Common Sense (paperback edition) was released on October 5, 2021.

0:00.0	Go. Hi everybody today I've got a fantastic new guest on the show first-timer a guy that I've known for about four or five years he invited me to a McGill luncheon a few years ago hung out with him then he invited me to his house I've yet to
0:14.4	reciprocate so I will self-flagellate later to a tone for that for Pa.
0:19.8	How you doing pat-comb-bam patty?

0:28.8	time visitor or a long time fan so it's a pleasure to be here. Thank you. You are a professor of
0:35.2	chemistry at McGill University which I should mention is one of my two
0:39.1	alma maters. I did the undergraduate and an MBA at McGill.
0:43.2	It's been many, many years ago, finished my MBA in 1990.
0:48.2	You're a physical chemist.
0:49.4	Maybe you'll explain to us what that's about in a few minutes. I wrote these things now not that I have an idea
0:55.3	what they mean but you study perovskite nanocrystals quantum dots and ultra Fast Spectroscopy.
1:05.0	That's right. Okay, and then you are one of the founding members of Safs McGill,
1:09.7	the Society for Academic Freedom and Scholarship.
1:11.9	I was honored that they invited me to be a keynote speaker at their main event a few years ago.
1:17.0	Now there is a branch of it at McGill University.
1:21.0	I want to get to the bottom of what recently transpired with you but first maybe
1:25.0	we could start with some of your cool chemistry stuff can you tell us on any of the
1:29.0	things that I mentioned using lay man's term what the hell it is that you're studying?
1:34.0	Well, absolutely and I think one of the things about science and as we were here in particular

1:45.7	proposals to get grants to do science because we think it can improve the world.
1:51.1	So in our grants we write about improving the economy, training highly quality. improve the to do. So in my field the area that I'm interested in which is an interface
