- Glenn is joined by Dr. Gad Saad who is a Lebanese-Canadian evolutionary behavioral scientist at the John Molson School of Business (Concordia University) and is known for applying evolutionary psychology to marketing and consumer behavior. They discuss a variety of different topics including progressivism's kindergarten logic, the wisdom of not knowing, the socialism of ants, the courage of responsibility, the humanity of struggle, and the expressionists' character of Islam.

Gad speaks directly from my heart and brain.
take your medication and his voice should go away...
Two open minded men from different cultures with opposite believes proving, that decency, character and honesty are more important then any kind of beliefs.
Pure pleasure to listen to.
A most excellent conversation, gentlemen!
No, a terrible conversation. Beck is a fake conservative. The left wing controls beck and can get him to say anything they want. Beck is 100% controlled opposition.
@@SP-dj9kl Without hysterics, can you sum that up in a paragraph and not use some specious link to a weird website? I am honestly curious.
I think they are a fascinating duo, no two could be better suited for a conversation. Unbridled curiosity and whip smart, the both. This is a treat and I am glad it popped up. Saad is a hoot.
I loved the story, and I wish I could remember who said it. "You should have seen the day after Poland got free of the Soviet Union...all over every town long lines of people lined main streets, selling whatever they had to sell." Buying and selling (trade) is one of the foundational basics of living together. Free trade is the beginning of freedom for people all the way around.
Something is fishy here... Three weeks after this was posted there are NO 'Likes' or 'Dislikes' showing (except the one I just clicked), and it shows 359 Comments. Also, it showed 70,150 'Views' when I started the video, which seemed rather low, so I reloaded it. During the time I watched this truly fabulous conversation, the 'Views' count went up to 70,221.
Now, if 71 separate individuals watched this video at exactly the same time three weeks after posting, these numbers do not make sense at all. I suspect a sneaky fiddle to minimize/underplay the true interest in, and appreciation for, this discussion, but am unqualified to do the math properly. Anyone care to check this out?
Normally I would save this till later, but I'm too afraid it'll disappear from CZcams, so I'll just plop down a take 2 hours out of my schedule. Bravo Mr. Beck for having invited this incredible individual...I may stop by your channel again sometime...rr Normandy, Fra
Normandy, Fra me also
Should have conducted the interview under the table where it's safe! ;-)
Jussie Smolletts are everywhere .
@Vox Daze 😂😂😂 here's the link czcams.com/video/BEnfCO0D71U/video.html
Derek Moore bogus. Thus was a thoughtful interview. Your comment, not so much.
@chinadreams888, the person before you clarified the comment and you still post this?? Thinky before typey.
Love the GADFATHER
Thanks to you both. I could have done an additional 2 hours.
Me too. When will get #2. A strong finish, gentles!
Gad: "Why do you have a smile on your face?"
Glenn: "Because I love you!"
Love Gad. So thankful I can learn from him
28:00 minute mark... the wisdom of these guys shone through; humble. One word.
I don't know if you could find two gentlemen of more polar opposition that I admire equally in essence. Beck, all bombast and broadcaster, Saad, a refined academic. Both humble in their own way.
When I was a kid my Mom took me aside and told me how important it was to watch myself around others and reserve my gregarious way. "You are smart and people will not like it. Be humble, respectful and consider perspective." I had to learn to listen. Really listen to people that were wrong. It took a long time.
This is my favorite Gad interview, and I've heard several. Bravo! Very, very good, Mr. Beck.
I'm a big fan of Gad. Keep educating us brother.
U r superb.
Glenn, Thank you for having these long form interviews. About abortion, I was indoctrinated by public school to believe the B.S. of pro-abortion (I refuse to call it Pro-Choice). I remember the first time I heard about this was from my FIFTH grade Catholic teacher who was pro-abortion. Roe v. Wade was the cause celebre at the time.
I think one is either for life or not. Just use logic. So if in your example, if your daughter were to get raped and were to get pregnant, that child is still half of your daughter. The logical decision is to give birth, keep the child/love it or to give it up for adoption. Either way, it is the best decision for both mother-child and upholding of God's commandments. I think a mother would have a whole lot less guilt to give the gift of a child to a childless couple than to have murder on her conscience. To have an exception for rape/incest, waters down the rectitude of being pro-LIFE.
Glenn Beck straight up looks like KFC colonel.
Really original thought.
One of the great thinkers of our time! Dr.Saad is brilliant! I am a huge fan and patron!
Gad Saad's thinking is getting tighter and deeper.
Who else thinks it Sam Harris they're referring to that falls into collective Munchausen syndrome over Trump? Pretty sure that's who it is.
OH DEFINITELY. He should have never said that little protective Freudian/slip. Sam Harris is like that. Very liberal bro in the IDW. His political tweets like about Kavanaugh are evidence.
sure it is. Obvious
Exactly what I thought too.
I really enjoy Sam's Making Sense podcasts, but I dread the moments where he starts ranting on Trump: it's getting really old, even if I don't always disagree with him.
@@SA-rz6fj As long as a con man sits in the white house, no one can rant too loudly, or too long, enough!
2 Hours that added value to my life. Well done gents and thank you.
This is the first time I've ever genuinely given Beck more than 2 minutes of my attention. Pretty cool to see the 'boogeymen of old guard conservatism' extend an olive branch to academics who reference Charles Darwin every 10 minutes. Good sh*t.
I'm not a big Glenn Beck fan, but Gad Saad?! The Gadfauther?!? I can't say no!
Didn’t think I would be watching Glenn Beck. Thank you Gadand Glenn this is an example of literate, civil, Intellectual dialogue. Makes me more optimistic every day!! Thanks
Gad is so awesome on so many levels ! But question for youtube: why can't I give a like to this beautiful conversation ?....
I loved listening to this. Thank you for honest conversation.
Really excellent on both sides!
I gained new respect for both men.
And the very last part about Trump & today's media is a true Gem
Been meaning to check Dr. Gad Saad out. I guess this is a great way to begin.
Thank you Glenn. Thank you Gad.
My gawd, he's become Col. Sanders!
lmao. I said the same thing when I first saw the new look
I thought the same thing, LOL
I was thinking geriatric Guy Fieri
At least col. Sanders isnt a tradcon.
I think you meant "Oh my Gad!"
Glenn conducted the best discussion with Gad Saad I've seen to date. This is an excellent video.
Gad on Beck...a new angle with Gad still staying on the topic of evolution and what it means to be human...a gentleman and scholar
Watching this for the second time and I think it would be great if Gad had a conversation with Professor John Lennox. 👍🏻
28:30 Gad drills down on the core of what 'truth' is. This clip should be known as well as 2+2=4. Bravo Gad! ❤️
I first discovered Glenn Beck in early Sept. when he interviewed Dave Ruben after his Aug. 2019 "off-the-grid" vacation, he does every year. I have since become a HUGE fan of Glenn, as he has fantastic conversations and an extremely well presented point of view. I don't always agree with that point of view, but he always gives me something to think about.
As for The Gadfather..... he too is spectacular! If you appreciate sarcasm and politically incorrect humor (and most specifically, anti-SJW takes), check out his history of videos.... great stuff! BTW, he also does some great interviews and my fave is a 3 part series with Jordan Peterson. Gad brings out the playful in Jordan and intrigues him as well.
PS. If the "superchat" screen is available, I recommend you watch it, along with the conversation. As it turns to Islam, toward the end, there are some interesting thoughts on Muslims and population growth. Whether you agree or not, the people in chat had some interesting things to say.
WOW! What a great conversation!
Great to see you connect with the Gad father, I've been a huge fan of his since I first heard him interviewed in JRE
Awesome discussion
Really interesting. Best information I've gotten in a long time. Facts!
Enjoyed it very much...! Gad was great. Glen did a great job.
For many years I wondered why I was so fascinated about the Nazi period in Germany. I was a career military man, once even stationed in Germany, so I passed my interest off as a product of my knowledge of military history. Suddenly one day it dawned on me the real reason. How could a people, who led the world in science, art, music and mathematics suddenly, over a period of 13 years, become the most vial society in the history of civilization? It was so unbelievable that I could never quite get my mind around it.
I love this guy !!!!!!
One of Gad's best ever interviews
Dynamic interview!
Gad, all day all night. Truth.
So many smart Canadians appearing on the scene.
👏👏👏 very informative chat. 👏👏👏
OH MY GAD!!!
I have a good story to talk about:
The "Frankfurter Schule"
or "Bauhaus"
(Kommunists in the 1920's in Germany)
Maybe you understand, what is going on in the universities and especially in Germany...
Love the long conversation
What a great show thank you both for this content!
This was great. I couldn't stop listening.
Gad is awesome! Been a fan since his first podcast on JRE
I already know this will be good. I haven't watched it yet. Great idea bringing Beck here.
At 1 hour I have to correct you Gad. In 1991 my Best Friend escaped from Lebanon to Israel by braving Hezbollah road blocks. He was Jewish Lebanese but lived in and was part of the Christian Falagese militia. He had scars all over his body from the torture Hezbollah put him through in one of those road blocks. I think he was the last Jewish male his mother stayed there & probably died there by now.
Dr.Gaad is awsome, very good interview!
Gadfather laying down the logic and changing minds.
That was an excellent and very interesting interview. Gad is brilliant.
Incredible conversation
I was already familiar with Gad, but Glenn's sales pitch was excellent.
Ya gotta love the Gad-father!
Glenn, ma man, who's the director of this show? Do you not see the optics? Dude, get a chair that puts your guest at eye level to you. Poor Gad looks like a kid sitting opposite you.
They're literally sitting in identic chairs. It's just that Gad is short.
@@kutark Yeah, I know. That's the problem. I'm just saying that we are in an age where video & the visuals are very important.
When political speeches are televised, the lecturns have been fixed to make everyone appear on the same level. It prevents distractions & gives the audience a chance to hear the arguments rather than noticing height differences.
I just think placing Glenn on a lower chair or elevating Gad's chair, would've taken their size differences out of our minds.
Maybe it's just me, but I was boring in on the optics when that shouldn't have been what I should've been concentrating on.
This is getting a bit autistic. It really isn't that important.
Agreed. That is my only really serious criticism here. Thanks
@@friarnewborg9213 yeah, it's just my autism shining through. Gad's the best!
So listen w/o watching...
Gad is the man .
when i was a boy i listened to the adults talk and latter the old folk . i never stopped listening to others and now i know a shit full of stuff. this broke down . the hierarchy of age equals wisdom . thats the need for family lost that people are hungry for , we want our system back .we want someone to pass us knowledge but our network is broken.
Terrific conversation!!
Love the Gad man. Thanks
love gad!!
Further we drift into the abyss of lunacy
Great great great discussion!!!
Im always a little weary of Beck he can get a little crazy sometimes and start channeling Alex jones, however this was an excellent conversation, and Gad was in excellent form
Stan Kahuna - what??? Beck never associated with Jones and all material presented from Beck always has evidence. What’s amazing is, when Beck is wrong- he’s the only one that admits it.
John relax Beck is a good man, and you are correct to point out the he is the first admit he was wrong about something, but sometimes he gets excitable and goes off the rails, and if you don't recognize that...LONG LIVE ALEX JONES
Stan Kahuna - sorry man, I and 99% of becks audience are Not supporters of Alex Jones. The Blaze exposed his operation a long time ago.
BUT Glenn, is the only one I know that has been screaming at Twitter and FaceBook for removing people and leaving other bad people on.
-Give me an example of Beck ‘going off the rails’ BC I haven’t seen it and I’ve watched him everyday for 5 years
Loyalty is an admirable trait but it also can be quite destructive especially when dealing with celebrity talking heads, the one example that come to mind very quickly of Beck going off the rails, now this is going back quite away, I believe it was during his tenure at CNN(FAKE NEWS) and he was doing a radio show during the same time I think he was under a lot of pressure doing both at the same time and he just lost it on the air and starting screaming like a lunatic at some caller he disagreed with and ever since then I have always taken anything he says with a grain of salt, and as far as you speaking for 99% of his audience c'mon man all you can do is speak for yourself, I'm tired of this conversation have a good day
@@johnstown2451 he means about beck getting carried away and going a bit nuts
Wow, two hours went by....I feel the long form conversations on youtube need to be LONGER. :)
Love your work and Gad Saads too. Am black Naturalized Brit
Great mics
I just want to be clear, I'm only watching because the Gadfather is here. I grew up on Beck and O'Reily--my dad even took be on my birthday to one of their tour dates. As far as I'm concerned Beck has some PR hoops to jump through involving Gavin and CRTV.
10 seconds in, omg this our longest podcast.
Tfw Roe Jogan😉
15 seconds in, oops.
I spoke to soon, however I’m watching beck, through the lens of pandrama.
From morning zoo to KFC, Glenn Beck has LEGS
read and watched glen beck in high school now ive my course back to him it seems
Dear Gadfather, I'd like to hear a scientific explanation for anti-Semitism. There is a compelling explanation of anti-Semitism that is spiritual (the existence of evil; a malevolent spiritual force that has it in for Jews etc.), but since you are not metaphysically religious, I'd be interested to hear your explanation for anti-Semitism.
occam's razor says tribalism?
@@jancz357 - exactly , that and a need for scapegoats .
Oh, that's _very_ simple! If you know _anything_ about human beings you know that they hate to admit that anything is their own fault. Thus, if other people are better off than them, or more famous than them, etc. etc. then it must be somebody's fault, not their own, you see? Jews are successful: that, alone, is sufficient reason for hating them. After all, you have to blame someone, don't you?
Terrific.
Why the hell is Glenn Beck preventing us from being able to see the like to dislike ratio? I don't get it, this would've had a ton of likes anyways so I don't see the point.
Great thoughtful ideas
i’m not even gonna front Gad Saad is a beautiful man
The universe operates on the principle of exchange.
Gad Saad rocks!
Oh thank Gad
Great interview. But I kept laughing because it looks like Colonel Sanders interviewing Judd Hirsch.
So much information. I watched it three times. If the Gadfather and Esther Perel had a baby, that offspring would be MY god.
“There are many things I believe that I shall never say but there are many things I don’t believe that I will never say.” Emmanuel Kant
The hanging microphones are distracting.
Agnostics are those of us in the middle of hard core believers and hard core atheists. We are actually the most honest, because we say "we don't know".
Anyone know the book Gad mentions at 18.30 mins? Or the name of the author. I’d like to check it out.
Oh and love the Gadfather. He’s no 1.
One thing atheists never really answer correctly how do you define Truth? is there such a thing? IF there is a Truth how is it different from God (dont give me the "man in the cloud" strawman) Is there Free Will? (hint: the argument for God is exactly the same as the one for Free WIll); without Free WIll can you assign guilt? Without Free WIll can there be a Just criminal trial? Thus without God/FreeWIll can there be Justice?
I'm an atheist, and I'll give you an answer: so much for your "never." No, there is no such thing as "Truth" with a capital "T" and without any context. Some things are true and others are untrue, depending on the situation at hand, as you damn well know! Thus, it is Truth that I am typing this on CZcams: what that has to do with some sort of supernatural being that supposedly created the universe beats me! In theory, there is no such thing as free will (there you go again with your pretentious and meaningless upper-case initialisation!), because everything is the result of previous causes, and thus nothing that happens could have happened any other way unless the previous causes had been different, which they weren't. In practice, however there is free will, purely as a legal, moral, and social necessity, because without it society would fall apart. If you murder your wife, it is _theoretically_ certain that you couldn't have done anything else, because the chain of cause-and-effect cannot be broken. But that won't get you off, unfortunately for you, and fortunately for society, which has to blame somebody, doesn't it? What will be, will be.
@@DieFlabbergast to add to this, punishing someone without freewill has a likelyhood of changing their future behavior because of cause and effect.
Truth is a concept. Truth is subjective. Truth is a tool. Truth is weapon. Truth is not always fact; though fact is not always fact.
Ah, the classic "God is a metaphor" argument. If demoting god from an omnipotent being that created the universe and rules over us to a vague cloud of feeling that hovers around is what it takes to continue believing in him fine, but to me that's placing god below us. If god only exists as a concept in our minds then he is less than a worm and I don't see the point in worshiping that.
Besides, atheism merely describes a lack of faith in something. Depending on which god you believe in you are an atheist towards all other gods ever described by other religions.
At around 53:33, Glenn Beck says "I don't believe that the waters parted okay I do believe the Jewish oral tradition that the winds might have swept and swept the water to leave a path ". Isn't that an epitome of "Olympic mental gymnastics"?
Are the thumbs up/down off or hidden because fear of some creationists thumbing this down?
although this is a podcast sound part has the lowest production quality, audio engineer should lower the dynamic range
The Gad Father -- a man of apostolic humility? Hah!
Still a fun and interesting guy to listen to, though.
"Epistimic"
36:45 gad should have asked him why he mentioned moses and jesus but forgot the great flood...maybe he just wasn't noah's ark type.
upvote my biblical dad joke guys
9:20 summarizes exactly the world of today!
Amazing!
Never liked Glenn Beck on Fox, but so far I'm liking Beck 2.1
SWEEEEET!!!!! THE GAADFAATHER AND GLEEN BEECK!!!
