Climate change is real. We all know that. But, Jordan Peterson does not. Today, let’s go through the science and see if we can convince him.

I was confused why anyone would attempt to convince this shill. But scrolling through the timeline, I see it’s apparently a mistitled debunking video. Which is fair.
Cody basically says it’s just a video on climate change (which people are reluctant to watch) but to grab their attention, it’s ACTUALLY a video TO Jordan - an idiot’s idea of a smart person - about climate change.
I really like how he explains stuff. Looking forward to part 2.
I was reluctant to watch because Jordan Petersen. Hence my admittedly uninformed comment. :)
Yeah, yknow, if you haven’t watched this channel, I would recommend it. The analysis is good, the delivery is fun enough. But the outright jokes are…pretty bad. The actual jokes are few and far between, mostly right before and after sponsor breaks, or at the beginning and end of the show. But they’re just so silly to the point of being not that funny. It’s hard to explain. Because I like a lot of “dumb” comedy. Stella, wet hot American summer, aunty Donna, etc. The complexity of the jokes isn’t he problem…I just don’t think they’re funny at all. Does anyone who watches Cody actually think so (that also happens to be reading this comment)?
All that said, the show is still good.
It’s fair and balanced. Some More News regularly try to do “general audience” shows which are like John Oliver’s Last Week Tonight, but funnier and with tiny budget. The Peterson thing is probably to attract some extra attention.
You actually think Cody is funny? I mean, I’m sure he is, in person and on his old college humor videos, but oof. The actual bits he does in SMN are…rough. I like the show a lot and keep up to date. I like his analysis, I like his way of delivering info. And I even like his “in-segment,” sort of off-hand jokes. But I just think his actual bits are pretty damn lame. Now, Jon Oliver I know is very funny, but yeah his show has stopped actually being very funny. Early seasons? Yeah, it was funny pretty consistently, and his standup is very good (or, at least it used to be. I dunno if he even does it anymore). But there are still a few good jokes brown into the show these days. When I catch them, at least. Which isn’t often.
I think that’s generally what happens when you’re constantly dealing with topics about greed, corruption, and general conservative insanity. Eventually you can’t make it funny anymore because it’s just depressing. I love SMN, but the humor and jokes have been really spotty. I don’t watch it for that stuff though. I’m sure the subject matter isn’t doing any favors for Cody’s mental health either.
Even despite John Oliver and his show being hilarious, it’s near impossible to keep that levity going through the brutality of some of his episodes.
None of them can be funny because of the context, so I set my expectations accordingly.
