Who is today's guest on The Megyn Kelly Show?
Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at noon east. Hey everyone, I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show. Oh, we've got a treat for you today with a guest who has not been on this show in nearly three years. He's only been here one other time, way back in April of 2021, episode 84. I mean, that's a long time ago. We weren't even on video. It was just an audio interview by phone. Jordan B. Peterson is a fascinating thinker and a leading intellectual of our time. And there may not be a greater voice over the past decade speaking out about the crisis with men and boys and more. Plus, his home country is about to become our 51st state. So that's exciting. He's Canadian.
Most recently, I mean, he's sold 14 million books in the past couple of years. It's pretty impressive. But most recently, he authored We Who Wrestle With God, Perceptions of the Divine. And he's also the host of The Daily Wires, the Jordan B. Peterson podcast and founder of Peterson Academy, which I have to tell you, I've spent a fair amount of time nosing around on and clicking on videos and is well worth it. And then I subscribed. I started buying stuff. Don't go there unless you really want to get attached and you have some time to devote to it. As President Trump is settling into his new administration, one of the top Democrats in Congress aiming to undermine the Trump agenda is Senator Dick Durbin. And according to our sponsor, the Electronic Payments Coalition, Senator Durbin has a new scheme, a government takeover of your credit card.
Today, Americans have thousands of choices in credit cards, but they say Senator Durbin's plan will result in less competition and less security. And that means more risk for your credit and your identity. Learn more at guardyourcard.org. And consider telling your senators to stop Dick Durbin's government takeover of your credit card before it's too late. Jordan, great to have you back.
What is Peterson Academy and its purpose?
It's really good to see you.
Oh, so yeah, I love Peterson Academy. It's very smart. It's a place for someone to educate themselves. You know, the people who are rejecting possibly going to Brown University in today's day and age can instead go to Peterson Academy and learn lessons that actually really will help them improve their lives. What's the goal of it? Let me just start there. And who's it for?
Well, the goal was to bring university education into the 21st century and more specifically to find the best professors in the world and to bring them to everyone at the lowest possible price. And I'm in a fortunate position because I have interviewed and met thousands of people and I have a very large connection among academics and thinkers in general. and a reasonable reputation among them. And so if I talk to them about Peterson Academy and invite them to lecture about whatever they would love to lecture about, they're very likely to do that. And we have an extremely efficient team. So we like to joke that we're 10 times the quality at 120th the price. And I actually think that's about right because at the typical large university, regardless of its reputation,
the bulk of the lectures are not top great, top rate. I'd say maybe 10% of them are, and all of ours are top 1%. And so you can learn a tremendous amount. We have a very good social network there too. free of bots and trolls and the sorts of people who make normal social media interaction quite the insanity-provoking ordeal. And our social media site, The Quad, is very positive and upward-aiming, and people seem to enjoy it a lot.
Well, it's a great idea. I love that you're doing it and really as is typical for your voice in the national conversation, helping people, really helping people. I've got to kick it off here because what happened was yesterday I went on the Adam Carolla show and he wanted to discuss, I don't think we ever actually got to it, but he wanted to discuss this article he drew my attention to from NBC News dated March 24th. And the headline of the piece is the plight of boys and men once sidelined by Democrats is now a priority.
