Dr. Jordan Peterson, Dave Chappelle, Our Transgender Community, and the Wisdom of Youth

Joey Dumont

Dec 29, 2021

In my attempt to understand our transgender community a bit better, I sat down with a young man named Brit Abney to hear what he had to say. My invitation stemmed from our friendship on Facebook, and his prolific and compassionate defense of our transgender community within his own friends and followers. We talked specifically about Dr. Jordan Peterson and the controversial C-16 Bill, as well as my favorite comedian, Dave Chappelle, and his Netflix special, The Closer. During our dialogue you'll hear us debate (and disagree) on terminology related to pronouns, triggers, and microaggressions, but more importantly, you'll witness the wisdom of youth in its finest form.

I hope y'all learn as much as I did from Brit.

About Brit Abney:

My name is Brit. I live in Denver with my wife and two kids. I'm a water resources engineer professionally and a philosopher by hobby. I like to ski, hike, scuba dive, and read whenever I get time (which isn't as much as I like thanks to my two wonderful children).

Discussion about this podcast

True Thirty with Joey Dumont

True Thirty, with Joey Dumont is a podcast that discusses and debates our society's most politically compelling topics through the lens of slow journalism. Each show is investigated with a focus on narrative as well as discovery. We believe that the complexity of culture cannot be crammed into six-minute television segments, or snippets and memes on social media, where ideology and entertainment is now the priority.

On the program, you’ll hear the opinions of subject matter experts who'll explore the tangled topics of our day. Our collective goal is to help people better understand one another, not win a battle. After listening, you'll be reminded that a proper debate is not about victory, but that of inquiry, education, and viewpoint diversity. So tune in and talk amongst yourselves. You may even learn a thing or two.
