Tim asks Peterson about being labeled the most influential public intellectual in the western world and whether he ever wishes he didn't carry that responsibility.
- Tim introduces the new book 'Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life' and notes much was written before a recent ordeal.
- The book jacket claims the New York Times called him the most influential public intellectual in the western world.
- Tim asks whether being that influential creates pressure and whether he'd rather not be responsible for what's happening in the western world.
- Tim says his feelings about the position vary moment to moment, and he's still working through how to conceptualize and move forward in it.
