For me it was [this episode](https://www.samharris.org/podcasts/making-sense-episodes/231-crossing-abyss) when I realized I could no longer tolerate him.

Related: I have found quite a bit of mental well-being utility from Sam Harris's "Waking Up" app. The Alan Watts back catalogue is easily worth the annual fee, which is steep, but worth it . (And this coming from someone who finds Harris himself off-putting.)
