Note de HighlandsArtCollective
Dr. Peterson knows of what he speaks. With depth and candor. Regrettably for this reviewer, his delivery is often cluttered by the inclusion of bombastic musical accompaniment and vigorous editing designed to amp up the "momentousness" of his presentation.
Shame when it happens, because it seems to add insincere self-awareness and more than just a little narcissistic bloat. But remove that window dressing and what one finds inside the store is insightful and valuable--and reminds the viewer of the critical personal values that are necessary for the individual to add value in the world.
Not a bad message to convey in these times when superficiality is too often celebrated.
Cue the trumpets and timpani drums! Actually, let's not, okay?

Mr. Brand gets dinged sometimes for inconsistency, but who among us is 100 24/7/365? Whether one series of his is deemed stronger than another is less important to this reviewer than the generally high observational value presented at any time.
So why is it that humorists with English bloodlines (a nod to Konstantin Kisin here too) are often at the front of the satirist line? Deeper literary genes perhaps. Close geographical vulnerability to aggressive forces in two World Wars maybe too.
Whatever the nature of the decidedly English truth-to-power acumen, it typically rings deeply to the observer paying attention. And Mr. Brand carries that tradition with joyful aplomb.

Mr. Turley uses lots of exclamation points. It's true!
Normally, this reviewer finds the exclamation point the most useless of punctuation marks, as most times it signals an attempt at contrived emotion--Look! This is important! The exclamation point is proof!
However, in Mr. Turley's case, it's easier to accept them because his arguments and assessments typically reflect thoughtful analyzation of varying viewpoints on the issue at hand.
The fact they're generally relegated to only the headline of his commentary helps too. Okay, it's an attention getter. But read on and the contrivance of the exclamation point is deflated. By genuine analysis.
Dr. Turley often falls prey to catch-terms of the day. Sometimes ironically, and sometimes not, it appears. But in the end a reasonable conclusion is typically offered. And that can negate some nitpicking.
So there you have it!
