Tim jokes about distrusting people who majored in psychology or business, then pivots to asking Peterson about COVID lockdowns, fear, and the psychological effects on society including rising shootings.
- Tim's anecdotal rule: whenever someone says they're majoring in psychology, he'd never want advice from them.
- He extends the same skepticism to business majors—people who emerge from those programs don't generally seem smart.
- Tim asks what COVID's psychological impact will be: the lockdowns, the fear of sickness and lost income, and the cumulative effect on the country's mental state.
