I don't always necessarily agree fully with everything he says, but I like him. He does receive some vilification that is completely off base in my view.
Are you sure he is not Sam Fischer? LOL But this is how I want to see political debates with rational logic and facts, not everyone have to come to the same conclusion, but they should be based common facts.
I've heard a bit from him, he certainly makes an attempt to be objective in his thinking which is something I appreciate. I don't always agree with him, but that's fine. He seems to put in the work to have well thought out positions which is all you can ask.
The guy has very interesting podcasts. Even his train wreck of an interview with Jordan Peterson where they argued for two hours about what it means for a fact to be true was interesting in its own way.
He's alright. I prefer Sean Carroll's viewpoints regarding naturalism over his though. Sean's IMO the best public speaker regarding things like theism vs naturalism. I'm guilty of the same on here but I guess what irks me regarding Sam is his condescending tone towards those with theistic tendencies. His expertise on cosmology and QFT is also incredibly interesting to listen to IMO and is good explaining complex models.
I sure do. I should have written my sentences better. These are a few of my favorite naturalist vs theistic debates. His debate with WLC is probably my favorite. WLC talks a lot and makes it seem like he knows what he's talking about, but he's clearly out of his league against a legitimate expert on cosmology. Probably my second favorite one regarding whether death is final. Follow up to the death is not final debate. This is just a good one covering the latest and greatest in QFT post Higgs discovery. Last video is one of my favorites regarding the arrow of time and discussions of entropy. He's IMO the next great explainer up there with Feynman.
His view on Europe for example. You can have immigration, but you cannot have huge immigration in short period of time.
