I'm ashamed to admit when I first discovered Jordan Peterson's university lectures I found him really interesting and actually encouraged friends to watch them lol

Unfortunately there are only very few true polymaths around at any one time, and none of them grift. Someone like Jonathan Miller was worth a thousand Petersons, and a million Nawaz (or Alex Joneses).
