Well worth the listen. Best account I have heard. First five minutes before the interview itself so try to find that as your launch point.
Heck I bet he will even get several Horace redemption points.

I've never lost respect for Sam Harris, so he needs no redemption from me. May I ask why you believe I've lost respect for him?

I read that into your Harris-Eric Topol interview comments.

Topol I can do without, but Harris was fine. I completely get where he's coming from, not wanting to interview or support Weinstein. I would also have respected him for allowing a discussion, but I get not wanting to platform Bret, and I get that the sorts of notions Bret has, can't be logically or rhetorically disproven in a conversation format.

Well I missed that. Check out the Bergen interview. I always learned so much from Bergen and he did not disappoint. He’s not only aghast at the execution of the withdrawal but the premise as well.

I thought the Harris podcast and oddly enough, the CBS Sunday Morning
Link to video segment were two of the better pieces done on the subject.
