Yes. Here’s how I imagine some people will respond to getting a link to this video. “Oh, it’s some weird YouTube video with capitalized words in the title and 265 views.” And the channel is called “Thinking Atheist” and has very few subscribers. It’s way less likely to be taken seriously than the full audio on the official podcast.
Also, it’s hard to listen to YouTube videos when moving around because people can’t (easily) download them. And people have to keep their screen on the whole time (and not use their phone for any other purpose) unless they have some premium YouTube subscription.
It seems like you’re answering “yes” to the question “is there supposed to be more than this?”, but the things you say in elaboration seem like they aren’t saying that there’s supposed to be more, but that a YouTube video is a bad format for this stuff.
Could you clarify whether there is in fact more audio than the audio on that YouTube video?
(For the avoidance of doubt, I am not disagreeing with any of what you say about the downsides of the YouTube video. I am just trying to understand whether there is or isn’t more audio to be had than what’s in that video.)
I mean that a YouTube video (especially this YouTube video) is not good enough for sharing with people (at least in my case), so I want an audio version from a source that looks somewhat official. (I want something “more than this.”)
When I do a short “yudkowsky harris” search on YouTube and Google, this is the only full version of the interview that I can find.
OK, understood: there isn’t “more” in the sense of more audio, but you’re hoping for “more” in the sense of something that may be more official-looking, less distracting, and more serious-feeling than a YouTube video. Thanks!
