    I know a woman who went to go see a live Jordan Peterson show, in trade, so that the person they went with would come see Bill Maher live with them. I don’t think the Peterson lover held up their end of the bargain but ever since I heard about this exchange it gives me ill feelings.

    It’s like a devils bargain that the devil would straight up be like “no, too much” if it was somehow proposed. It breaks my brain to think about it.

      Ah, the rare lose-lose trade. I can’t imagine seeing either of them live.

        I’ve been out of steady work and have dwindling savings. You’d have to pay me many many thousands to go to either and I’d say _at least 20G’s to go to both. And that’s if I mostly go just to people watch. If I had to pay attention in any capacity, to the point where I could discuss it afterward, that’s like $35,000-$40,000.
