The personality assessment mentioned by Mr. Carr is understandmyself.com/

Jimmy Carr is an award-winning comedian, author, and TV host. Carr recently came under fire for the career-enders subsection in His Dark Material, a Netflix special that’s deemed “deeply offensive” or “faithful to its title,” depending on who you ask. Carr’s latest book, Before & Laughter, is part memoir, part life advice, and mostly funny.

We had a stimulating conversation about human nature, comedy and the physiology of laughter, experiencing jokes, half-filled rooms, truth, growth, self-deprecation, love languages, religion, and the 15’ replica of his head.

    This is like a twilight zone episode, I never would have expected these two to do an interview, But I am extremely happy for it.
  • @cornelbaluta
    Two things I have to say about this topic: 1. I had the delightful opportunity to pickup Dr. Jordan Peterson in 2018 from the London Heathrow Airport and drop him at his hotel in London. With Dr. Peterson I had the most amazing conversation for more than two hours because: a) Being from Romania he was very interested about the years I lived in communism and how I end up living in the UK. b) I had no idea at that moment who Dr. Peterson was. After we said goodbye in front of his hotel I've googled his name but the shock came next day when YouTube recommended me his videos and the famous interview with Cathy Newman. Dr. Jordan Peterson is a such a wonderful and humble person and he has my gratitude for life for helping me understand the wrong things I've done in my life and to fix it and to make peace with me and the world for a better future. 2. I had the same delightful opportunity to pick up Jimmy Carr from a BBC tv show in London in 2019 and drop him home. He is the nicest, coolest and clever guy I ever met. Totally different from what you see on the stage.

    I'd love to see more of Jimmy doing serious stuff like this. He's so articulate and interesting. Thank you Jordan for allowing us to see this side of him.
  • @ChrisFaa
    So great to hear Jimmy Carr speak seriously and at length. What a great guy.
  • @ZCBeats1
    never expected this crossover in a million years 😂

    ''the opposite of addiction isn't sobriety ; it's purpose'' -Jimmy Carr and Jordan Peterson I sat down 4 days before this video came out. I spent a couple of hours and mapped out what I wanted for my life. I've since stopped two nearly life long addiction WITHOUT EFFORT, where as before I could barely last two days. Funny that I stumbled upon this quote. It is true, and the biggest revelation of my life so far. When you take the time to produce a believable, precise vision of what your life could be, your urges to continue harmful habits will crash on a wall of steel.

    comedians have consistently proven themselves to be some of the most intelligent and insightful people in all of media.
  • @vincemanley9001
    How on earth are two men across the world in two dramatically different professions sharing such common experience and wisdom, and privy to the same accurate and up to date literature? This is a one in a million conversation. Witnessing this in person would have me floored.
  • @Cavalakz
    Such an accurate statement by Jimmy; "You can joke about anything but not to everyone."
  • @Burnitdownnn
    Not the crossover we deserve, but the crossover we need.
  • @liamcollier2
    I found out more about Mr Carr in an hour and half than in the last 20 years of watching him on tv, good job.
  • @mjungwir
    RIP Sean Locke. What a witty, amazing human being.
  • Jordan’s humor is under appreciated, man makes me laugh sometimes without jokes. Just with his bluntness
  • Incredible interview with so many interesting talking points. Captivating. Would love to see Jordan and Ricky Gervais.
  • @AJ-ds5gf
    I only wish someone would have bought Carr a £100 mic for this monumentus podcast.
  • @JaketheJust
    My favorite Carr joke was when he sealed with a heckler. The heckler talked about inequality, Carr said, “Yeah, if a man who sleeps with a lot of women, he’s a stud. When a woman does that, you know what they call her? Ray’s Mom!”
  • @_Enerdor
    Jimmy Carr's answer to we he wanted to talk with Jordan really moved me and elevated my opinion of him
