@Horace said in Jordan Peterson Update:
How was it?
I was a little disappointed, to be honest.
The audience was interesting. I guess there were at least 5000 people in the audience. Many of them were very well-dressed, and the average age was surprisingly low. Many 20 somethings in the audience. I guess the average age was maybe 30. Many visitors from other countries, too - Croatia, Hungary, Austria, Germany.
Peterson appeared on the stage with his wife. I was expecting that he'd talk about some idea from his book - as the title of the tour suggests. But instead the whole session consisted of his wife reading random audience questions from her phone and Peterson giving answers. I think that's a bad format that lacks focus and was somewhat repetitive relative to things Peterson said elsewhere. Peterson also missed the point of some of the questions and then went on a 10min rant about his misinterpretation that somehow always ended up being about Jung. His wife was completely silent apart from reading the questions off her phone - no clarifications, no follow-up questions, no interruption when he misunderstood the question. Before Jordan entered the stage, she made a rather strange advertisement for the businesses of her children, which I found a little inappropriate.
Overall, I can't recommend it in its current format.
