    I love Peter Robinson. You will not find a better prepared interviewer anywhere

    Peter Robinson is a phenomenal interviewer: he did an interview with Peter I believe years ago and has also interviews  with Rene Girard. I can recommend his recent ones with Jim Mattis, VDH, David berlinsky, all of them with Thomas Sowell, Heather Macadonald

    Peter Thiel really needs to be interviewed by John Vervaeke.

    I’m amazed by how clearly Thiel is speaking here. He tends to stutter a lot in many other interviews he’s done.

    I always thought that Peter Thiel was a very intelligent being, but didn't expect how much intellect and introspectiveness he portraits in this interview with a rather superior interviewer like Peter Robinson. What a pleasure this was to watch these two talking

    A tactic discovered is a tactic neutralized, know this from negotiation.

    Each time I return to this interview I'm more impressed by how insightful Theil's thinking is.

    Peter's hypno-tie is strong. It really ties the suit together.

    Fascinating interview and fascinating perspective on the Enlightenment.   He’s certainly right that we live in a moment, or era-- when people don’t believe in the capacity to think, and therefore the capacity to change.  We tend to treat one another-- and ourselves-- as beings who “are what we are” and nothing more.   But this does not mean we cannot change for the better, only that we believe we cannot.  These two are not the same.
