Your reading is correct. He's an old schoolish free speech hippie liberal, though he's only in his 50s. I admit that I have listened to his podcast a few times.
Don't bother to watch the video, unless you want to note how extremely charitable and patient he is. More than I would ever be.
Here's a decent summary. It all got kicked off when he said a day of protest where non-whites weren't allowed on campus was wrong.

Oh this is that guy! I remember when that all went down. Wow, so an origin story a bit like Jordan Peterson's.
