Russell is a great guy and sometimes he has really great people as guests on his podcast.
Here's the latest gem with Eckhart Tolle. I shall post more older videos later.

Systems Of The Damned | Russell Brand & Charles Eisenstein - Under The Skin
http://youtu.be/-dP2VoY5OlkQuote:
Author, environmentalist & Yale graduate Charles Eisenstein chats to me about alternative forms of economics, his skepticism of the mainstream climate change narrative and how we can create new systems outside of the norm that could work for everyone.
He is author of "Sacred Economics" & "Climate - A New Story"
Russell Brand & Gabor Mate | Damaged Leaders Rule The World

It is obvious that egos are running the world. A reflection of nothing, huh. Oy vey!
Russell Brand looks downright distressed ... :)
Russell is serious now. Not that he can't be funny or relax, but he's on a more serious path. In comparison it could appear to be distress.
He said that he sacrificed the glamorous Hollywood life and acting, because mostly it was boring and unfulfilling. Spiritual path was calling him. That's the thing with the high material life, it only fulfills the ego, but not the soul. Also the ego is never satisfied with what it has, it always wants more. The soul needs it's own kind of food if there's a yearning and calling for it. The normal crap won't just cut it anymore.
You're so right, Wind. I've watched folks chase ego satisfaction and "They can't get no...No No No!" "Hey hey hey."
I have the very weird experience of getting absolutely no ego satisfaction when I look for it or seek it out. But when I'm not looking at all for an ego boost, that's when I get kudos or recognition or some kind of reward for my actions.
It's like the world has actively decided to not reward any ego fulfillment when it's being sought out.

Still could use the money and Lamborghini though... :D
"If one is going to be miserable it is better to have money in doing so."
Peterson has a full stream of b.s. to pass on. I like this guy less each time i hear him speak. He may believe what he believes but his problem is that any 'thought' that changes the status quo for the 'other' is automatically driven by a power grab by the left. Peterson is permanently stuck in his psychological and emotional dysfunction. My diagnosis ... :) His mother didn't love him enough. And likely his father was 'stern' about status, proper behavior and success. If somebody checks it out ... let me know? Of course, i'm probably correct.
I knew you would express your sour feelings about Peterson, NAP. Perhaps you should look at his birth chart. ;)
yeah, I didn't want to offend you, but I'll say this about the video. Russel impressed me with his questions and understanding. In fact, I stopped watching it because Brand's questions were too good and I didn't want to hear Peterson wheedle out of them ... :)
It's not offending me, you're entitled to your feelings and opinions. You should give it a chance since their discussions are quite fruitful. I appreciate Peterson even though I don't agree about everything with him. I could say that I'm a leftie or progressive, but I don't like social justice warriors either especially when they go overboard with their mania. I think Jordan has taken his fear of communism and the marxists a bit too far, but otherwise he is a very intelligent man. He has definitely some emotional problems, because he's been suffering with depression for a long time and I can understand it. He's not a bad man, he's struggling with his unintegrated shadow aspects. I think we all are to a degree, some are just totally consumed by their shadow. He has a lot of empathy, I've seen it.
ok, that's fair ... the struggle between the self and the shadow should not take place on a public forum though. Way too much damage can be wrought on the unsuspecting. He is a bad man and couches it in terms of 'Woe is me... so unfairly chastised' I just can't buy it. I'll wait to see if he ever gets past his obsession with himself.
