Jordan B Peterson's 'Boring People Don't Exist' outpaces his Tolstoy talk
A day old, the newest of four uploads is gathering views several times faster than the week-old Tolstoy video, which still holds the biggest total by far.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
What Tolstoy Found Above the Abyss
The youngest leads. "Boring People Don't Exist" went up only a day ago, and it is already the busiest thing on Jordan B Peterson's channel, moving at roughly five times the daily pace of anything else he posted this week.
The week began with "What Tolstoy Found Above the Abyss," and that one has done the heavy lifting on totals. At a week old it has passed 200,000 views, several times more than the other three combined, and it is still drawing a steady crowd each day. In between came "Where Idea Are Born," the quietest of the four, and "Don't Aim to Win the Argument," which opened briskly and has since settled to less than half its first-day pace. Three of the four titles read like advice you could put on a card, and the one making the most noise right now argues that everyone is interesting.
Among the self-improvement and productivity channels, Jordan B Peterson sits second of nine by subscribers, behind The School of Life and a clear step above Ali Abdaal and Mel Robbins.
