      Not everybody needs a cheerleader in order to talk. When a host notices a confident speaker and recognises that the speaker's contribution is consistent and valuable, the best thing for the host to do is be quiet. Jimmy didn't say much that needed challenging or a push. He either gave his opinion or gave facts, and never tried to demand that his opinion was fact.
      People are tainted by news networks being mostly opinion and argument and have forgotten about what journalism (small J) is. And yes, I know that most such people haven't or can't read this far.

      Go back and listen to the interview, especially the first 20 mins. It's odd. In normal human communication, your listener makes subtle sounds of acknowledgment when you are speaking to them, especially when you sort of ask them questions, like right? Things like that. We give small gestures and sounds like mmhmm. Do you know what I mean?

      Depression is a real syndrome. We need to take it seriously, absolutely. Is it a “disease,” as defined by the medical community? No. It’s some combination of symptoms observed in patients over a period of weeks by psychiatrists. In one person, the cause may be a thyroid issue. In another person, maybe it’s a lifetime of loneliness. For another, they need to overcome a lifetime sense of powerlessness. For another, they may well need lithium to function. There is a reason why meds don’t work 60% of the time. Depression is not one “disease” any more than abdominal pain is a “disease.” We’ve barely scratched the surface of helping people overcome their misery.

      @@banedon8087 It is reductive but I'm not sure it's simplistic to the point of being incorrect - I feel it does pretty accurately sum up how happy someone generally feels.
      You can have very little, envy even less and feel generally pretty happy so long as your survival isn't in constant ambiguity.
      Vice versa you can have everything a person could want and still perceive the world as needing to give you more to be satisfied, and live eternally unhappy.
      Obviously most of what we envy is subconscious, but if we can work out why we're chasing what we're chasing, we might realise we're on a bunch of wild goose chases and everything we actually need is a lot simpler to attain.

    I'm 43. I recently had an experience with my sons friends popping round. And they were absolutely jaw dropped. I spent the day fixing a car, mechanically then did a bodyshop worthy patch repair to a panel. Came in, and told them to quiet down I need to do some work on my dissertation. The confident one piped up and proclaimed how??? How can you do so much stuff! I replied. I grew up poor. But with a dad. I had to become self sufficient or...metaphorically die. And I guess the hardships I look upon as perceived trauma while growing up. Actually. Make me who I am and are to be celebrated. What a privilege. To not need bank loans. To never need a mechanic or a bodyshop. Never need a builder, a plumber or an electrician. To never need much more than myself. What a gift. Now...many will see this as a pointless comment. I'm sure. It's not about setting up a business having passive income and a ferrari. But. I think it's key to be thankful and celebrate who you are and what you can do. Not be depressed about what you can't. Jimmy touched on being thankful. And that's a rewarding mindset.

    My Dad always worked, 3 jobs sometimes, because he had too. I didn’t see much of him as a kid.
    When I was older (late teens maybe) he mentioned how he feels he missed everything, just off the cuff no real emphasis on it, while we were chatting and cooking.
    I stopped him and said “Even as a kid I knew why you did it, that you had to, that the reason I had food and a roof was because of you. Thank you for what you did. You didn’t miss my childhood, you made it possible.” I think he let go of years of guilt and tension.

    This is one of the best interviews I've ever seen. Jimmy is always brilliant but the interviewer( I don't recall the name right now,I apologize)is perfect. He's not talking over the guest,he's asking just enough questions and giving the answer time to breathe and keeping things going. Absolutely fantastic.
    I agree with so many things here. I'm a construction worker,46 from the states and last year decided to say fuck it and move to Europe. Not a great time to do it with the state of the world but I did it anyways. It's been difficult to say the least but I'm still grateful that I've done it. I've learned a lot about the world and myself and I've learned real gratitude for people. Most people don't speak English where I am so it's been a tough journey but even with the language barrier,everyone has been amazing to me. I didn't expect that at all. I never thought I'd be here but I'm glad I am. Just like this interview. Never thought I'd hear it but I'm glad I did and that's how life is. It's tough,it's easy,it's in-between and that's the beauty of everyday...
    I'll be subscribing for sure

      The presumption there is that people who don't censor things are inherently good.

      If someone's comedy relies on hurting those who are already measurably marginalised in society, then it isn't comedy worth hearing.
      It isn't original. It isn't revolutionary or brave or unique or special. It's just ugly, petty and negative.
      Allowing hatespeech to have free reign has also never been a feature of a good or just society.

    I'm about halfway through and I am hooked, the number of pithy but accurate life advice quotes is amazing... The only thing I think they have both ignored (at least so far) is that not everyone who tries will succeed, even if they dedicate their life to a particular goal, failure is not just a possibility but a likelihood. From the perspective of someone who put the work in and succeeded I can see where they are coming from but I also recognize that for every Jimmy Carr who decided to pick a path and try to become the best there are thousands of people who picked a path and still exclusively play to disinterested rooms for £50. Most people will fail by virtue of the numbers, and those people may well have been better off choosing a good life over chasing a great one.

    Everytime I think this podcast has served up the most incredible wisdom, I'm amazed that you manage to surpass yourself! Kudos to Steve and JImmy. I am 76 and have learned a lot over the years. For me, life is more of an adventure than ever and it just thrills me to hear men, years younger than I, who really live on a different planet from me, recognizing the pain and effort life requires but continuing to strive and learn and find even greater satisfaction and insight every day. I am so grateful, Steve, for what you provide and Jimmy, for sharing yourself so completely. It gives me a lot of hope for the world.

    I have NEVER sat and watched anything like this before.
    This absolutely blew me away.
    Some really incredible thought provoking conversations, which I both relate to and hope to emulate in my personal life/ career.
    Loved it

    He is so incredibly right about gratitude being the most important virtue. Despite coming from a long line of depressives, it is the fundamental source of my happiness. We are living in an age of wonders, and so few of us realize it. Once you do, you'll never be bored or unhappy (for long, at least).

    I found myself joining the conversation, while listening. You have hit on the very insights that accomplished people ponder. This conversation allowed me to understand why as my university degree I chose the most difficult of studies to simply prove to myself that I could aim, fail, try again and prevail . Fascinating topic, the self discoveries, challenges and evolving desires to contribute our talents and skills towards becoming, while acknowledging our moments.

    Jimmy has a lot of great points mentioned in here. My favorite he kind of references which is that worrying only makes tomorrow's problems more relavant today

    I feel the same, it's the memories that we make that carry us happily through life, not the things that we own. Giving an anonymous gift, going out for dinner, or treating a friend to dinner or a gift, that is worth more to me than most things. If we can cover the necessities in life, and have a little left over for some little treats, then we have "enough". And, when you know that you have "enough", then you can relax and enjoy life more. Forever striving for "MORE" is robbing us of life.
