Recommendation Three: The Maps of Meaning Series from Jordan B Peterson Podcast
- Kevin strongly recommends the Maps of Meaning Series from Jordan B Peterson Podcast, though these episodes haven’t been discussed in great details by us in the interview due to time limit. You can either listen to or watch the series; if you just want to spend a short period of time getting some gists, you may consider brief summaries done by websites providing abstracting services.
- If Maps of Meaning sound too complex and profound to you, Kevin suggests trying Episode 22, aka. Adam and Eve: Self-Consciousness, Evil & Death, which deciphers myths and mystique of biblical stories and extends to the realistic human life. You can also watch the lecture here.
- A piece from the New Yorker in 2018 describing and explaining the phenomenon of Jordan Peterson.
推荐三：The Maps of Meaning Series from Jordan B Peterson Podcast
- 凯文为Casticle推荐的是Peterson的Maps of Meaning系列，然而这一系列的内容实在太多、太抽象、太系统、太难用半个小时时间聊透了，所以我们在节目中非常遗憾地草草了事……如果听这一系列的播客很有难度，不妨去看看这一系列课程的视频，因为这一系列绝对不是multitasking就能消化得了的。如果你想快速了解个大概，然后再决定是否需要投入更多时间与精力系统学习，可以用类似这个整理概要的网站，先粗略地感受下Peterson的意义地图的轮廓。
- 如果Maps of Meaning系列对你来说实在太棘手，Kevin建议你先从第22集节目听起，题为 Adam and Eve: Self-Consciousness, Evil & Death。在这一期中，Peterson尝试破解圣经中的许多神话与迷思，将它们与世俗生活联系起来。你也可以在此观看这节课程。
- 关于Jordan Peterson的评论太多了，褒贬都有，无一例外的都是大长文……本期我们就先放一个2018年《纽约客》写的文章吧，作者尝试描述并解释了所谓「彼得森现象」。
Recommendation Four: Thrive Podcast by Kevin Lee
- Link to listen to Kevin’s Thrive Podcast; its Chinese version is also available under the same link.
推荐四：Thrive Podcast by Kevin Lee
- Kevin的播客Thrive的收听地址；除了Kevin本人的英文讲述外，这套播客也被几位青年志的资深研究员们重新编排制作成了中文版，收听地址与英文版相同。青年志在上海已陆续围绕Thrive谈到的话题组织过几次工作坊，更多线下活动也在策划中，欢迎感兴趣的朋友关注他们的公众号（青年志Youthology）了解更多。
