What is discussed at the start of this section?
The Joe Rogan Experience.
Showing by day, Joe Rogan Podcast by night, all day. Hello. Good to see you.
Hi.
What's cracking? How you been?
Thank you for having me back.
My pleasure. It's been quite a while.
It's so nice to see you. I know the first time I did your show, you were still in LA, which was five years ago, if you can believe it.
Was it really five years? Wow. Time flies.
And then the last time I saw you was over Skype when my book came out, The End of Gender. That was 2020, before you came here.
That's right. So how you been?
I've been good.
What are you working on?
I love Austin. So I'm working on a new project and I'm not ready to announce exactly what it is yet, but I'm here to get your audience's feedback because I love hearing from people and I want to know what's going on in people's lives and what their experiences are like. And I'd love to hear your perspective too, especially because you are the father of three girls. A lot of these issues I'm talking about have to do with young people, especially Generation Z. And I guess I want to start by, unless you want to, I have a whole list of things I want to talk to you about. Okay, no, let's go right into it. Okay, so I know you appreciate all of the craziness that's been happening in academia in terms of the, I watched Yuri Bezmenov.
I know you talk a lot about him and the defector.
Yeah.
I feel like he must be psychic or something because what he describes in terms of ideological subversion and how to control basically an entire generation by going through academics and teaching them at a young age how to think, what to think more specifically, and how to then get people to a place where they can't agree on what objective reality is. That's essentially what's happening on university campuses. So for myself, having come through academia, finishing my PhD, realizing that I wouldn't be able to stay there and do legitimate research anymore. And so I have to come on the biggest podcast in the world. I'm very excited and grateful to be here. But I'm like, why don't I just do my own research and do it this way and not have to be constrained by a particular way of thinking or knowing I have to find something.
certain things with my research in order for it to be published. And if it does get published and it goes against what activists want you to say, it's going to get pulled.
What is Dr. Soh's new project about?
Your funding is going to get pulled. You're going to end up homeless anyway. Might as well just go straight from A to B.
The Yuri Bezmenov interview from, I think it was 84? Yeah. Is so crazy because back then, I'm sure people were like, come on, this is nonsense. This is not. But if you look at it now in 2023, like... He was telling the truth. He has to have been telling the truth and that the Soviet Union had planned this out for generations and that they knew that this was going to be a 10, 20, 30-year project. And it's been successful. And the fact that these academics, these people that we count on to think for us, we count on to be – you know, the shining light of intellectual discourse. They have completely fallen captive to everything that he described and that they are sending that out into the world, this mind virus, and essentially eroding all of our confidence in government, all our confidence in civil discourse, all of our confidence in our ability to get along and to understand objective reality is...
It's crazy that what he was saying is exactly what happened.
It's pretty brilliant, though, I have to say, the way that this has turned out for ideological people. If you're pushing that agenda and you've managed to convince an entire generation, because he was saying in the interview it's going to take 15, 20 years at least to clear out that way of thinking. Because when you go to university, and I can definitely relate to that, when you are young and you're impressionable, You don't stop and think, maybe my professor is lying to me, or maybe my professor is trying to trick me into thinking in a very biased way, in a particular way, because they want to see certain changes in the world, and this is how they've chosen to do it.
