CS Joseph is a controversial figure in the world of Depth Psychology. Like Jordan Peterson, he’s a big fan of Carl Jung, but very critical of the Myers-Briggs personality test (which is based on the Jungian archetypes). But unlike Jordan Peterson, he seems to be on a mission to salvage the theory behind the MBTI model, and he claims to have developed a more accurate and consistent method for typing one’s personality.

There are a few reasons why I am recommending him: 1) to me he seems genuine in his efforts to help people better understand themselves and others, but he also has kind of charlatan vibe, so I’m not entirely sure if he’s not just taking advantage of people. Or also if he’s stuck in his own belief system. 2) his content could be useful to your videos when you’re assessing personalities, 3) I think body language analysis and personality typing are two skills that would work VERY well together. Therefore if he’s legit, you could recommend him to your audience so they can improve their skill set (I imagine a lot if them would have more of an interest than most in understanding others). 4) I think both of these skills are valuable on their own, but combined, they have the potential to be monumental in improving the human condition and advancing human civilization (emphasis on civil). However, I could be naive about all this too. But since I’m supposedly one of the few INFP-type personalities, my brain is uniquely wired to spot growing trends that others tend to miss or overlook (according to CSJ anyway).

In this video he was asked by his fans to assess the personality type of one of his biggest critics/trolls. So I thought he would have particularly telling body language while doing this. You only have to watch from 17:30 to 40:40. But he defends his method from a critic in the chat room until 44:30.

This is his very first video (before he got more comfortable making them).

This video shows him interacting with others.

Here one where he is talking about his own type.

And this one I just thought was a good video for showing the basics of the theory.

You can also search his YouTube channel for various videos of him where sitting, walking, and even driving while making his video if those help. Thanks. ReplyCancel

Not really a requested video. I remember you talking about the theory of evolution in one of your first Bomcasts, and just thought you might find this interesting.
