307 - Gregg Hurwitz - The Search for Political Nuance

I sat down again with the American novelist and screenwriter, Gregg Hurwitz. Gregg was part of the Daily Wire+ Exodus series discussion panel with Jordan Peterson, so I thought it was a good time for us to talk about what we took away from those discussions, Exodus, Christianity, CS Lewis, the importance of ritual, temperance, and a nuanced approach to social matters.Previous discussions: - New Think - with Gregg Hurwitz: https://youtu.be/nR53MJd8VLI?si=AAIcbBjs4x1pHt9X- Patterns in Politics and Storytelling | with Gregg Hurwitz: https://youtu.be/ykDHAapyaZ4?si=pNF0KV7uIInAMiUs Exodus series with Daily Wire+ and Jordan Peterson: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL22J3VaeABQAppIsV0MmKYhGeFGJsy-dS&si=VxB_bJsEU-QvWHPWGregg’s website: https://gregghurwitz.net/Original YouTube version of this podcast: https://youtu.be/tOhS9Gm_a5I---Timestamps:00:00 // Preview00:41 // Intro music01:06 // Introduction01:56 // Gregg's experience with the Exodus series04:57 // Let the fringe be the fringe13:06 // Layers of participation15:04 // The essence of the laws16:28 // Values and a foundation20:20 // Humility22:06 // A structure in which to navigate25:39 // The necessity of ritual31:04 // CS Lewis and The Great Divorce35:28 // Freedom38:25 // Hell43:39 // Hypocrisy and accusation48:09 // The Nine Worthies54:34 // The messiness of life1:03:22 // Guilt by association1:08:54 // Pluralistic ignorance---💻 Website and blog: http://www.thesymbolicworld.com🔗 Linktree: https://linktr.ee/jonathanpageau 🗣 Join The Symbolic World Community for discussions about symbolism: https://thesymbolicworld.com/subscribe 🔒 BECOME A PATRON Website: https://thesymbolicworld.com/subscribe Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/pageauvideos 📱 SOCIAL MEDIA Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/TheSymbolicWorld Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/pageaujonathan Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonathan.pageauOur website designers: https://www.resonancehq.io/ My intro was arranged and recorded by Matthew Wilkinson.
