the Old Testament is not a book of monogamy
Not correct. The whole system was started out as monogamous (Adam and Eve) but the lusts of people changed that. The O.T. shows constantly monogamous relationships working but polygamy causing issues every single time it was used. Abraham having Ishmael, Leah and Rebekah and the multiple problems there, David and his serious problems, Solomon and wives leading him astray, etc.

Bret Weinstein is Jewish and may not be an expert on the OT or the NT. For that matter, Peterson isn't an expert on theology either.
Instead of being distracted by the errors or things you may disagree with, consider the interesting ideas conveyed.
