I was at a dinner party recently and I said I never say anything that could be interpreted as controversial, “I self- censor all the time now.” The progressives at the party were surprised. The husband of the hostess agreed with me. It was an odd turn of events. The progressives all agreed they “speak their minds” without fear of consequence. I said “that may be because you only speak to people you know already agree with you.” Silence. I loved WHITE. I listen to the audiobook all the time.

I'm really liking the new format. I think that a video demands more attention from you than a podcast, but in a good way. You catch up on more personal quirks (facial expressions, pauses) that help express the ideas discussed in a better, more realistic and natural way. It feels less... preplanned, I guess. I'm considering this experiment a definite success andI'm really looking forward for more.

James is spot on just like his amazing performance in the Rules of Attraction. I'm glad he didn't let Bret overtalk him the whole time.

Thanks, LOVE the experiment. Great show, and video (with expressions) ads a lot. Would be great to have the podcast easily accessible. Missing it sooooo much. I have no problem paying for content but Patreon doesn't make it exactly frictionless (no apple pay, etc). Anyway, thanks again, great show.

I honestly thought the same thing about society being post racial at the time. then people made jokes about anything described as black, black Friday or back in black or amex black etc, with the silly line "that's racist." and then people took it seriously
