The Jordan B. Peterson Podcast

Jordan Peterson became one of the most polarizing public intellectuals of the last decade, and his podcast is where he does his most in-depth thinking. The format alternates between one-on-one interviews with guests and solo lectures where Peterson unpacks ideas from psychology, mythology, and cultural criticism. Episodes run anywhere from 50 minutes to nearly two hours, released twice a week. The show has 581 episodes and a 4.6-star rating from a massive 33,000 reviews, making it one of the most-reviewed podcasts on Apple. Recent guests include Stanford biotech entrepreneur Dr. Garry Nolan, autism researcher Sir Simon Baron-Cohen, and Scott Adams of Dilbert fame. Peterson's interview style is intense and probing. He tends to follow a thread of ideas wherever it leads, which can take conversations into genuinely unexpected territory. Peterson's background as a clinical psychologist and University of Toronto professor gives his show an academic foundation, though he covers far more than psychology. Mythology, narrative structure, education, parenting, religion, and political culture all feature prominently. The show lives on The Daily Wire now, which positions it in a specific media ecosystem. For Rogan fans, particularly those who found the Jordan Peterson episodes on JRE compelling, this podcast offers much more of that energy. Peterson dives deep into topics Rogan often only scratches the surface of.
