They're everyday. And I'm not saying Peterson isn't. Peterson's struggling now, fitting in with his team because he hasn't been with his team. The guy's a ridiculous talent because as you know, the one thing you got to do in the NBA is what? Make shots. And that dude can make shots. Yeah, I've watched him, but I mean, there's buyer beware because I don't know if he loves playing. DeBansa is every night. That dude brings it, as you said. He loves ball. Yes, …”

Darren Peterson is an incredibly talented NBA prospect, but there's a worrying question about his passion for the game. While players like D'Vance and Acuff show a love for basketball and consistently bring their best, Peterson struggles to fit in and might not be the gym rat teams need. In a league where making shots is crucial, will Peterson's talent be enough if his heart isn't in it?
“… of. Well, you just look at your phone and you're like, damn, dude, that's crazy. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, man, that's crazy. That's crazy. Yeah. Doesn't Jordan Peterson have one of those diseases that's just like sort of low key fake? Like his daughter is like, yeah, he has this thing. And then you look into it and it's just like sort of fake or something like that. It's called ADHD, June. Jesus Christ. Okay. I was under the impression that she had induced it. So that's that's which is slightly different than fake. Oh, yeah. His cider psychosis. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. He has some weird shit going on. He has …”

It's just no one happy would defend a corporation this much like I I say this is reading forums of people arguing about video games for years.

“… hey, check out this impression of your wife. Ooh. And you'd go, hey, Jeff, that's not really funny to me. I love my wife. That's how I feel about Jordan Peterson. I'm like, yeah, I get it. But knock it off. The guy changed my life. But Jordan talks about, I don't know if it's even his idea, but he says that, you know, we're going around thinking. We're thinking all day. But we're not really thinking. We're kind of going through like mental habits. You're just kind of going about your day.

“… my mind, does not hold up in either case. I mean, don't worry, Darling, at least, has the panache of the reveal being that it's like Harry Styles as Jordan Peterson in a room. That's funny, if silly and undermining of the entire project. You know, the bride as a feminist retelling and what it is fine, though I would like to talk about the concept of a feminist retelling and what we're achieving when we do that. But the way that it executes it is so heavy handed and, as you said, sometimes tacked on and so. like ultimately unnecessary and and and frankly not doesn't achieve what i think it thinks it's set …”
“… personally but i think they're going to end up in basically the same place critically socially they both they both have like not a fun flaw, but the fundamental theory behind their existence, the take, the interpretation, is quite similar and, to my mind, does not hold up in either case.

“… every time I go and I hand my passport, I think, boy, is this the last time I'm going to go there? And actually, the last time that I saw Ava was at Jordan Peterson's R Conference in February of 2025. And I had dinner with about 10 of the panelists, many of whom you know are well-known American, some American and some British speakers, whose names not be mentioned at the moment.

But we sat at a dinner, all talking about the fact that for the first time in our lives, we were somewhere where there was some concern about what we might tweet.
