Really good conversation. Good hosting as well - hosts with Rory on have a tendency to let him ramble, zigzag and dominate the conversation, but you kept him honest - nice work
Good interview, nice job matching Rory's energy and responding to his humour. Quite a few podcast hosts are a bit po-faced, or just too slow to keep up with the flow, and its a bit embarassing. Occasionally I think he's humouring some of those podcast hosts, but this seemed like a proper conversation.
Hi Common Sense guy (didn't catch your name, sorry). Loved the interview. I'm a complete Rory nut and evangelist so I watch everything he appears on, so thanks for having him on again. And I really appreciated your retort that there actually aren't any things you 'can't talk about anymore', I think you had him cornered there a little bit! 😂😅
I really enjoy listening to Rory but I have to say one thing he spoke about here was just something I couldn't get on board with and I'm talking about his defense for Dominic Cummins during the covid lockdowns, somehow he made the case that we wouldn't question a skilled surgeon if they made that journey and no we wouldn't have but that would mean he is making the claim that Dominic has as much importance as someone who was that essential and I think its a rational case to make that simply no, he was not of that level of importance and when he did this at an unprecedented time when the country was told to stay indoors, cancel weddings, only have 10 people show up at a funeral (which happened at my Aunties funeral) family couldn't see new born babies, fathers had to miss hospital appointments during pregnancy and anti-natal classes were cancelled, mental health programs were cancelled, suicide rates and domestic abuse skyrocketed then its a very clear answer from... no, Domonic was not remotely fucking important enough to justify seeing his family when the rest of the country couldn't see theres and everyone had an absolute right to feel bitter and angry with how the entire lockdown period was handled. Politicians need some cheese and wine for morale? Cry me a fucking river. I'm from the position that rules are for everyone and if they aren't then we are in a corrupt society.
Very interesting conversation with Rory who I just recently found out about which I am very happy about. I do have to add some friendly observations that it was a bit difficult to concentrate on with the continuous acknowledgements after nearly every sentence that Rory made, either by a yeah, hmmm, or a giggle.........might be better not to have those short acknowledgements every so often. Also no need to cut to you when you just say hmmm....or yeah....only cut to your take when you make a point or have a question as the interviewer. I love the casual format but maybe introducing a table between you and your guests might frame and concentrate the energy of the conversation. Once more these are respectful observations from a user and I am by no way an expert at all. So maybe what I have observed or felt has no real foundation. Congratulations on your podcast and this very interesting conversation. I look forward to your future podcast.
Really good Podcast with Rory - Thanks for that. One request for likes/subs is enough though (perhaps somewhere in the middle) after the third request I felt like not doing so. Four is OTT. Keep up the good work. 👍
Nobody has UA-cam premium? Didn’t see that one coming because I do have and now thinking about it I feel he’s right. Yet nobody listens to fSpotify with the ads in between songs
why do so many people have the mic in the shot, in interviews? i do not get it. a good mic does not need to be in front of the speaker's mouth. are they just trying to show how big their mic is?
You really don't need to put the "please subscribe" advert interruption so often, like every 15 minutes, and I think it's the exact same every time. And you do it in the middle of a sentence. It's so disruptive and takes you out of the conversation. It's unnecessary and I don't think it is helpful. Once during the podcast and then perhaps at the end, as a reminder, even if it's the same clip used both times, would be enough. And the one in the middle could be better placed than in the middle of a sentence.
Oh Rory!! Apologies for being casual... you seem like my soul mate. I seem to think like you. Eg long ago I decided that I needed at least two phones!! I actually have three so I can access an old US Amazon account as well as my UK one.
1:40:37 if cummings had said "while I admit that I did it, I did it for a good reason, however in acknowledgement that other people may have been fined for doing the same as me, I will pay the £2k fine." So many other people got fined and it was the double standard that really annoyed people. As a political strategist he should have known this and the fact that he didn't also shows that he was pretty rubbish at his job too.
34:58 “…I’ve literally got like 10 minutes…” and if you get up 20 minutes earlier, you have a half hour. Just enough time for a little morning coffee grinding/pressing alchemical ritualism.
Thin end of the edge of the wedge? We always put the worst interpretation on every thing! His take on the old royal asking 'where you from' was a prime example of worst interpretation! How the hell did you get Roryer on your show???
The interviewer needs to be more open minded and let his guest make a point. He dug his heir so much and sacrificed so much time which could have been spent on other topics
I watch a lot of Rory and I like him. I had no intention of subscribing, as this seems like a fairly typical sycophantic chat, but then you politely and quite deftly pushed back on the 'we are not allowed to speak about immigration' trope and I was really impressed. Just to confirm I'm 40 yrs old and I remember when Farage & UKIP came on the scene to parasitize our politics as a teenager, and the topic has never fallen off the agenda since. However, migration remains essential & broadly beneficial, which is why we should probably ask if it is time to stop discussing it. Or at the very least start saying something interesting about it. For instance 'what you are not allowed to say' is that: a child born in Uganda is not responcible for where they were born & has just much right to live in the UK as my kids, if they want to.
I think the issues surrounding immigration at the moment that alarm people are the sheer numbers (over 500k net per year the last couple of years) and our country’s (in)ability to cope with that. I believe it was the ONS who basically said that to keep house prices where they’re at now, we would to build 382,000 homes a year, every year to accommodate that. This is before we get into infrastructure and expansion of public services. We just do not have the capacity to do that unless you want to rebuild Victorian style slums or turn this green and pleasant land into a giant Mumbai. Neither will be very popular to put it mildly. By all means, let’s have migration, but let’s be much stricter and more sensible about who comes in.
Your last sentence doesn’t add up. Giving effectively everybody “the right” to live in the UK doesn’t work, especially as a huge proportion of immigrants are net recipients of UK largesse, rather than contributors.
Rory is fun, honest, intelligent and a life force. Love him.
Funny he mentioned youtube premium. I recently subscribed to it and it was the best decision I ever made! 😆
I too made the jump based on a previous recommendation of his.
Really good conversation. Good hosting as well - hosts with Rory on have a tendency to let him ramble, zigzag and dominate the conversation, but you kept him honest - nice work
So many breaks to ask to subscribe, so annoying.
Any interview with Rory is both entertaining and informative. Excellent interview, thank you!
Very good interview, Rory at ease is great Rory.
Great conversation and very well hosted indeed, thanks
Thanks for listening and watching

Try talking about immigration and not being called a racist.....
Just finished the previous episode you have with Rory. He’s always a great listen
I watched this for Rory Sutherland, he never disappoints , so informative and amusing
Great conversation 👍

I have Premium too, wouldn’t watch UA-cam without it now. Rory is always compelling 😊
The interviewer has got so many blind spots when it comes to his image of the “far right”.
Love Rory been following him for a while now and have become a way better marketer!
Move Rory's mic. From a fellow Sutherland (slave trader). Great chat. Sometimes you talk over him a bit, with your mic closer it seems worse.
why do so many people have the mic in the shot, in interviews?
i do not get it.
a good mic does not need to be in front of the speaker's mouth.
are they just trying to show how big their mic is?

Ooh - I have been waiting for the micropayment option ... make it easier to pay than to find ways around!
I like Rory but I have this crushing feeling that he desperately needs to let out a 30 second fart
Oh Rory!! Apologies for being casual... you seem like my soul mate. I seem to think like you. Eg long ago I decided that I needed at least two phones!! I actually have three so I can access an old US Amazon account as well as my UK one.
If it's on UA-cam it must be true.
1:32:36 both partygate and watergate were relatively minor events until the people at the centre of them lied and were caught lying about it
1:40:37 if cummings had said "while I admit that I did it, I did it for a good reason, however in acknowledgement that other people may have been fined for doing the same as me, I will pay the £2k fine." So many other people got fined and it was the double standard that really annoyed people. As a political strategist he should have known this and the fact that he didn't also shows that he was pretty rubbish at his job too.
Rory seems to underestimate how much labour couldn’t get away with if they was in power
I agree with Musk, if you want your freedom, go self employed
34:58 “…I’ve literally got like 10 minutes…”
and if you get up 20 minutes earlier, you have a half hour. Just enough time for a little morning coffee grinding/pressing alchemical ritualism.
Your level is far to high and Rory's is about right and you make lots of interjections and they make it very hard to hear.
Thin end of the edge of the wedge? We always put the worst interpretation on every thing! His take on the old royal asking 'where you from' was a prime example of worst interpretation!
How the hell did you get Roryer on your show???
1:35:57 Norman Tebbit is not late, he is still alive.
Roland fryer asked questions from outside the box!!!
Thomas Sewell on the minimum wage!
Rory is great to listen to, but I am afraid your interview style is appalling so no, I won't be subscribing
The interviewer needs to be more open minded and let his guest make a point. He dug his heir so much and sacrificed so much time which could have been spent on other topics

the wanting everything to make sense is neuroticism.

@@julianchase95 that doesn't appear to address my point that children are not responsible for where they happen to be born

And - fortunately - nor are you responsible for where they end up living. @@alexanderbaines-buffery7563
This channel is called "Common Sense". Ironic with the Trump Derangement Syndrome on exhibit.
Stop breaking the fourth wall while you in conversation 🤬
Never heard anyone try to put on a posh accent and fail at it so badly.
