  • I hit 2 million Subscribers on CZcams!!
    To celebrate, I asked for questions from CZcams, Twitter and Instagram, so here’s another 90 minutes of me trying to answer as many as possible. As always there’s some great questions in here about my thoughts on Andrew Huberman's recent drama, the future of the podcasting industry and whether I'm becoming religious or not.
    Expect to learn what I'd tell my 18 year old self, whether I'm afraid I'll ever run out of content, if I can keep up the pace of 3 episodes a week, if I just bring on people who confirm my worldview, how I try to keep my private life private, whether I know how to max out growth during puberty and much more...

      That'd be amazing to have an interview done with a Latin Mass goer. Despite the fact that it's the fastest growing religious group, the Vatican has been having Latin Masses canceled across the globe, including in Austin, Texas. I can put you in touch with the St. Joseph Latin Mass Society who offered Mass there until March. Or, there's a 1:30 p.m. Mass at the St. Dymphna Center of St. Martin de Porres Catholic Church in Dripping Springs, 25 miles from Austin.

    Hi Chris. Love the podcast, it's been an amazing blessing for me since I discovered you last year. For a solid understanding of the Traditional Latin Mass, as well as all things Catholicism, you can't go wrong with Bishop Robert Barron. He's a superb communicator and very comfortable on a range of topics. He doesn't mind being challenged and in fact revels in it. I think you and he would enjoy a conversation very much.

    Hi Chris! Congrats on 2M 🍻
    I don't remember what year it was, but I started listening shortly before you made your 100k video. Great to see you reach this point.
    The thing I appreciate most about your podcasts is that you will literally talk to anyone on any topic, but also your episodes are usually little over an hour, short enough to finish in a single section of my day like a cleaning session, a commute to work, a round of running errands, etc. Most podcasts I might listen to ramble for literally hours so that they're hard to finish, but your genuinely open-ended curiosity takes the convos deeply into places as unique as your guests are, while the episode timing is a good fit for the schedule. It's like the perfect blend.
    Would totally join your Discord server if you made one, FYI.
    Cheers.

    Congrats.
    I totally agree with not doing things for the "sucess"!
    I've been on a life-changing journey the last few years.
    I'm disabled and lost my mom, right before the holidays, then covid hit.
    It was the darkest time in my life with a lot of real problems to struggle through.
    A handful of healthy choices that were really counter to my feelings at the time has led to a life that is much brighter.
    I came up with a name and started my own substack and I love it.
    I work really hard on making each one true and each time I finish an article I feel like I as able to say what I wanted to say, and that feels great,
    Each handful of readers feels wonderful.
    Each subject I get organized into an article is a feeling of success and purpose.
    I don't expect to ever be big, certainly not to the scale you are, but that isn't a reason to do anything, podcasts or whatever.
    I love it and hope I always do. I love that anybody reads it. What more could you want?
    Ps. It's reassuring that I'm not the only one who struggles so much to be even mildly disagreeable or who endlessly torments themself over other people s well-being, or feels so much anxiety over the smallest degree of holding your ground. Just learning that not everyone does that, and thus can really take advantage was surprising. I hope one day it's no longer a struggle for me. And in the meantime, I hope I can make healthy choices for myself despite the everest of my own feelings. I know in my head what I need to do, and that it isn't wrong, but doing it seems so impossible, hopefully that will improve. But nice to know I'm not the only one.

Your curiosity is infectious. Your use of the english language is stimulating and a delight to listen to. Your analogies always spark a deep ingrained visual in my mind. Most of all, you're a prime example of what it means to be genuinely authentic and transparent. Finally, you're always open to new experiences and upping the anti. From one podcaster to another (I started in 2010) congratulations! Modern Wisdom is in my top 5 podcasts. Ludwina from Melbourne, Australia xxx

    Chris, you are a real human being. An honest man. As you reach more people you just remain yourself. You are authentic and you produce “normal”, fascinating, relevant content. You are a rare find amongst the egos. Other popular podcasters try to be humble while they strive to grow their channels and it becomes about how great they are doing. You are very different and It shows. Thank you. The only other person who manages this with ease is Rogan, he obviously does it because he loves it and he’s unchanged.

    I loved this episode. A solo episode like this really shows us what you’re like as a person, and personally for me that’s really important, as I’ve been pulled in by other podcasts only to eventually realise that their content is strongly algorithmically & data driven and the host is not genuine or authentic.
    Also, you may not realise it but when you talked about your insecurities, depression and people pleasing etc, you were perfectly modelling how a man can be vulnerable in a confident way. It’s about owning who you are, warts & all, without shame.

    Long-time follower and fan- I track with your logic regarding the number of episodes you did from a bedroom and the years of relentless grinding, vs ‘the video wall.’ My experience has been that many people seem to judge things in isolation with little regard for the greater context. I also imagine it could be true that you’re not getting nearly the complaints from people that have followed you for a while. Cheers!

    @sebastianmead Před 11 dny +2

    Congrats man, totally deserved! Here are a few guests I think you should look into:
    Sadhguru - Life, Mental Health & Spirituality
    Dario Fabbri (Italian but speaks good English) - Geopolitics but with a more anthropological / psychological twist, VERY INTERESTING
    Dr. Berg - Nutrition & Health
    Big Love and God Bless

    Hello Chris, I just wanted to drop by and express my appreciation for your content. I stumbled upon your channel through your interview with MrBallen, and since then, I've been hooked. Your Q&A video is particularly inspiring, and it's evident that you have a lot to offer.
    However, if I may offer a small piece of feedback, I noticed that you speak quite quickly. While it's understandable given everyone's unique speaking style, I'd suggest considering a slightly slower pace. Not only does it enhance clarity, but it also reduces the risk of strain on your vocal cords in the long run. Just a thought from one admirer of your content to another. Keep up the great work!

    Grats on the 2 mil!
    I need to mention it, the way you handled the negative comments this time felt really good! Also, it's an interesting concept about uncomfortable questions: when is it reasonable? That discomfort when you make someone else uncomfortable is a horrible feeling too. Part of me's afraid that "others' emotional state is not my problem" is the same line of thinking that someone who has an affair with 5 partners would use. "Not my fault they trusted me and got hurt. How they handle their emotions is not my problem." It's like psycho logic and some of those you take it from tend to take pleasure from making others feel uncomfortable which is not behaviour I appreciate. But lying to each-other and solving nothing is no better. I do not have the neuron capacity for this. Regardless, appreciate you guys and your work, keep crushing it!

You're fucking awesome, and I hope you don't allow the criticism to impact you.

    Hi Chris I genuinely love your podcast as it expands my perspective. My opinion is that you consider having a profound conversation with a negative or struggling individual at a table. Much has been said about how to elevate another individual, but have you considered doing it on your own plan?

    Chris, love the show. Any chance you would have a guest on to talk about the influence that birth order has on our personalities? Kevin Lehman (The Birth Order Book) comes to mind. Also would love to see a conversation between you and Fr. Mike Smitz, he has lots of insightful content with his podcasts/youtube videos. He works with college students and probably has some great insights on what’s going on with young people. Congrats on your success, well done!

  • @geoffreyperman4748

    Once more: Chris is the best interviewer of this generation. This past year of episodes you’ve pushed back harder on guests about conflictions within their own arguments and with indisputable facts. I appreciate that greatly. You also answered the question of how you decide when to apply a little pressure to guests which was on my mind.
    Looking forward to seeing this show evolve.

    The idea of multiple concurrent high profile guest in one conversation hyped me so much! What a wonderful idea. It will be awfully challenging to manage the conversation, not to let strong characters like Jocko or Jordan P. "own" it, but it is worth the risk. I am sure it would be awesome chemistry.

    Chris you should look at Therapy in a nutshell. The woman is so brilliant at explaining emotions and anxiety. One video in particular is called something like “how to stop taking things personally” and it changed my life and relationships.
    She talks about boundaries and uses a beautiful metaphor about them being like a fence around your garden. How others think is their business, it's their lawn to tend to and not ours. All we can control is how we ‘’mow our own lawn.”
    I promise it is really good! I think you’d get a lot from her. She’s lucid, insightful and incredibly endearing.
    She gives practical CBT methods on how to understand your thoughts and feelings in ways that are actually actionable.

Thank you for your effort you put in to this podcast :)

    Oh my gosh: YES to a Modern Wisdom dating app!! I have thought about that with this podcast and also Jordan Peterson (and I’m sure there’s some audience crossover there). I know it would be a ton of work, but I do think that if it ever came to fruition that good things could come of it. You could start a mini-series on dating success stories. 😄

    When I watch modern wisdom, I see traditional wisdom from modern voices. I found your commentary on exploring religion to be hopeful, I think the world is moving back in the direction as the tested knowledge seems to line up with thousands of years of wisdom. If you look at what you expel, and compare it to things that were taught to us through faith. They are one and the same.
    Unfortunately, corruption has found its way into every facet of life, including “the church “. I hope to hear from you on this.

    Section on “disagreeing with guests”… I appreciate you sitting with the discomfort rather than rescuing because if you’re coming on a podcast (2+ mill subs) you DO need to be prepared to explain where your info is coming from. And you, Chris, do need to be able to stand your ground because if you agree with every guest, then who is Chris? I appreciate you being consistent, not being easily swayed, but also very obviously being open minded. Thank you 🙏🏼

      Some actor, philosopher was talking about Socrates in some outside event, and Socrates was considered as one of smartest men in that period. He explained that Socrates was admitting if he didn´t know something he said "I don´t know." ....while everybody else pretends they know everything.
      So why should Chris agree or know everything, if it´s not even possible.
      Just because Chris isn´t fighting back it doesn´t mean he agrees with everything, Chris may be neutral, and say I don´t know as Socrates said I don´t know, despite being very smart man.
