Where this was said

Was Vittorio Actually a Jordan Peterson Fan?

At 1:29 · chapter starts 0:00

Before the conversation fully gets going, Vittorio Angelone admits something he knows his audience won't love: he read Jordan Peterson's 12 Rules for Life at 22 and found it genuinely useful. He made his girlfriend watch Peterson content, cheered Cathy Newman being outsmarted, and needed someone to tell him to get his act together. He frames the confession with self-awareness — he knows how it looks, he's embarrassed by some of it, but he'd rather be honest about the people who helped shape him than pretend they didn't exist.
