Summary

Sometimes it's important to check in on old friends, just to make sure they're doing okay. That's the theme for today's episode. We felt it was necessary to pay an unannounced house call to our old pals Bret Weinstein and Jordan Peterson. Rumor had it that Jordan was facing some challenges with his clinical license, while Bret had been brewing up revolutionary evolutionary theories that weren't getting the recognition they deserved.

Knowing Jordan's stoic nature and aversion to publicity, we anticipated he'd be reluctant to 'make a fuss.' So, we decided to drop by his podcast to see how he and his daughter, Mikhaila, were handling the news that another Canadian court had determined that the evil College of Psychologists of Ontario does indeed have the authority to reprimand him for rampaging on social media like a deranged badger. We were confident he would be taking it all in his stride, with his usual level of decorum and we were certainly not disappointed.

As for Bret, well, let's just say he's cracked the code behind the Chinese evolutionary LINEAGE and its motivation for instigating the one-child policy, with implications that shake the very foundations of our current world order. This is one for the history books and cements Bret's status as a world-class evolutionary thinker. When you start looking through Bret's evolutionary lens, suddenly everything starts to make sense.

So come join us to see how these two titans of the Guru-sphere are faring in 2024 and in the process learn exactly which of them is morphing into a Lord of the Rings character.

0:00.0	You're going to be. Oh, Hello and welcome to Dakota the Guru's the podcast where an anthropologist
0:29.6	and a psychologist was into the greatest minds the world has to offer and we tried to understand what they're talking about I'm Matt Brown with me. It's Chris Kavanaugh and today I am told we have
0:39.6	medium-sized to coding not looking at new people. we're returning to some of our old favorites just because
0:45.9	They've been delivering such beautiful content tell us more Chris. Okay, and for anybody who might not know, he's a psychologist.
0:54.7	I'm an anthropologist of sorts.
0:56.7	I thought you're going to clarify that I was a professor,
0:59.6	but no, you went with the psychologist.
1:01.3	That's fine.
1:02.3	Now that too. He's a full professor. I'm an associate professor. That's important to clear as well. That's going to annoy that one guy.
1:10.0	Yeah, so we cover gurus, we cover new gurus, we cover old gurus, we are
1:15.3	duodin, but we're still nursing you back slowly, we're building you up to a
1:21.3	full decoding and this time we've got to classic
1:25.7	couros who have been on the rampage and I think it is interesting to look at them because documenting the spiral of people is an
1:37.6	interesting thing to do and these are two figures who have absolutely spiraled. I don't think I would ever say they were good
1:46.6	paradigms of kind of careful speakers who were making well researched points, but it is fair to say that they weren't as overtly
1:55.4	insane as they now are and will hear and that is one Brett Weinstein, Jordan B Peterson. Isn't he B Peterson? Yeah, he is B Peterson.
2:08.7	B Peterson. They have spirals, but I never stop delivering amazing content,
2:13.0	so I guess there's a silver lighting to every cloud
2:16.0	and to us, like if we were a band, Chris,
2:18.0	they would be our take me home,
2:20.0	country road and Hotel California.
2:22.0	You know, we can trot out the old hits anytime we want and there's
