Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Chat with Piers Morgan - On Gabor Mate, Elon Musk, Migration & Grooming Gangs (The Saad Truth with Dr. Saad_1012)
Q: Why do you feel unable to change Dr. Mate's opinions in a debate?
Because I think there is no amount of new evidence or argument I could present that would alter his core beliefs, making a debate feel futile for him as well.
Chat with Piers Morgan - On Gabor Mate, Elon Musk, Migration & Grooming Gangs (The Saad Truth with Dr. Saad_1012)
Q: You don't like to debate; why don't you like doing debates?
I'm willing to debate if there is potential for either side to be persuaded by evidence; however, I believe in debates where the opposing positions could be swayed, otherwise it would be a futile exercise.
Richard Ovenden, OBE - Author of "Burning the Books" & Bodley's Librarian (The Saad Truth with Dr. Saad_1016)
Q: What were the books that you read that made you the person you are today?
He cites Homicide by Daly and Wilson as a pivotal read during his doctoral studies, which shaped his understanding of evolutionary psychology and led him to found the field of evolutionary consumer behavior, describing the book as transformative for his academic trajectory.
Richard Ovenden, OBE - Author of "Burning the Books" & Bodley's Librarian (The Saad Truth with Dr. Saad_1016)

Noah Rothman, "Blood & Progress - A Century of Left-Wing Violence in America" (The Saad Truth with Dr. Saad_1007)
Q: Give us the big synopsis and then we can drill down.
