- Sam Harris: “The Left Has Been Manipulated By Islamists”
In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with neuroscientist, author, and public intellectual Sam Harris for a conversation on political extremism, Islamism, Trump, open societies, religion, and the future of the West.We begin with the rise of political violence in America and whether the chaos consuming both the Left and the Right points to something deeper than Trump himself. Harris argues that ideological extremism on the Left has become normalised within mainstream institutions, while populism on the Right has eroded confidence in liberal democratic norms.The conversation then turns to Islamism, the Middle East, and the future of Western civilisation. Harris lays out his long-standing argument that jihadism represents a genuine ideological threat to open societies, while I challenge him on nationalism, religion, and the limits of secular liberalism. Together, we explore Israel, Iran, the Muslim Brotherhood, mass migration into Europe, and whether the West still believes strongly enough in its own values to survive.We also examine the presidency of Donald Trump, with Harris criticising Trump’s character and transactional worldview while simultaneously acknowledging that many of Trump’s foreign policy instincts — particularly regarding Iran and Islamism.Finally, the conversation moves into deeper philosophical and spiritual territory. Sam and I challenge each other on Christianity, sacrifice, suffering, and meaning, while Harris defends secular rationalism and critiques revealed religion as fundamentally dangerous when taken literally.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Watch the extended 1 hour conversation with Sam HERE: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/p/sam-harris-on-what-nobody-wants-to?r=18lfab-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Sam Harris | Club Random with Bill Maher
Bill Maher and Sam Harris go head-to-head on some of the most explosive issues of the moment — and neither pulls punches. Maher defends his dinner with Donald Trump while Harris pushes back hard, sparking a debate that expands into the left’s blind spots, sex differences in sports, media narratives, and the influence of Joe Rogan and podcast culture. Then the conversation turns personal. Harris reflects on nearly losing his home in the Los Angeles fires, while Maher explains why anxiety spirals might actually be a meditation alarm. Along the way they touch on geopolitics, Tucker Carlson, Iran, and the strange state of modern media — proving that when these two talk, nothing is off-limits.

- Open the Pod, Dave (with Sam Harris)
We welcome Sam Harris back to the show for a deep dive into Stanley Kubrick's confounding 1968 masterpiece "2001: A Space Odyssey." How long is the Dawn of Man? What does the second monolith do exactly? Why are the humans so banal and expressionless? What are HAL'S motivations? Has he planned his mutiny from the start, or does the Council's deception make him manlfunction? Or something else? Who is the Council anyway? Was HAL meant to go through the stargate? What is the final leap forward in consciousness? The hotel room, the starchild, all the rectangles, rectangles everywhere, the music – what does it all mean???? Plus Sam has some thoughts about our Rorty episode and David tries to rile Tamler up about Kanye's antisemitism. note : there's a bit of an abrupt transition between our brief opening and Sam telling a story about Rorty in around the 9 minute mark... couldn't be helped.
