In this 250th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we talk about the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. In this week’s episode, we discuss the election results. The outcome—Trump in office, and both legislative bodies having a Republican majority—has the strong potential to be positive for everyone, and yet so many people are scared or angry. We discuss why, and provide some reasons that letting go of your fear and anger is the right thing to do. Also: what do exit polls reveal about who voted blue vs red? Who are the women who voted for Trump? How can you level up yourself and your understanding of the world? Then: why is the New York Times producing graphics that omit some of its own data, making it appear that the West coast had no shift in voting between 2020 and 2024 (spoiler: a significant majority of counties across the countries moved red this election). Finally: which party had more people who hoped for authoritarian crackdowns just two years ago? And what did the CDC have planned for the dirty and unvaccinated? ***** Our sponsors: Caraway: Non-toxic, beautiful, light ceramic cookware—makes a great gift!

New York's Prop. 1 pretends to protect against discrimination while, in a paragraph not visible to voters, it sets the stage for a massive new wave of discrimination! Equal protection under the law is in jeopardy. If this Trojan Horse works, it will soon spread to other states. Please listen to Attorney Bobbie Anne Cox and vote down Prop. 1!

In this 249th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we talk about the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. In this week’s episode, we discuss the upcoming election, and how important it is to vote. The Democratic Party has created a two-tiered system in the Courts and in federal agencies; they have inverted basic values, including equal protection under the law, the role of families, informed consent, individual sovereignty, and our Constitution; and they have replaced truth-seeking with activism. From wars to the economy to the southern border, there is ample evidence of what the two teams actually stand for. Also: the first case report of trans-myocarditis. Then: “The Science” is still not science: federally funded research on the effects of puberty blockers on children isn’t published, because the researchers don’t like the results they got. ***** Our sponsors: VanMan: Tallow and honey balm, deodorant, and many other amazing animal based personal care products.Go to http://www.vanmanscompany.com/darkhorse and use code darkhorse10 for 10% off your first order.

In this 248th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we talk about the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. In this week’s episode, we begin and end by geeking out on biology: why there tend to be so many molecules in organisms that humans find useful (see: turmeric and ginger), why you can’t be both the fastest and the most agile anything, and new research that finds that some Atlantic fish with leg-like appendages can taste the ground with those “legs.” In between all that: an analysis of American political parties—where they’ve been, where they are now, and what might happen next.

In this 247th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we talk about the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. In this week’s episode, we discuss the “Opportunity Agenda for Black Men” being proposed by Kamala Harris—from legalizing marijuana to enacting price controls on food and rent to regulating crypto. Then: why the ascendant Right needs the traditional liberal left, and a discussion of positive feedback, and why it has become easier to say that you support Trump than it used to be.

In this 246 in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we talk about the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. In this week’s episode, we discuss how Kamala Harris is presenting herself, and being presented, in the mainstream media, and whether there is any misinformation therein. Then: How the reductionist, scientistic approach to human health is making us less healthy, rather than more. Examples: California requires folic acid be added to tortillas and other masa products (“it’s an equity issue”), and fluoride in municipal water supplies is recognized as a correlate of lower childhood IQs. Also: Doctor Strangelove. Finally: a discussion of technocrats and their science skin suits. ***** Our sponsors: Policygenius: Save time and money providing a financial safety net for your family.

In this 244th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we talk about the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. In this week’s episode, we discuss excess deaths from 2021 on, and what the insurance industry is recommending that we do (more of the same treatments that got us into this mess!). Related: Francis Collins, the head of the National Institutes of Health during Covid, asks why “facing a common enemy” didn’t bring us together, while celebrating the Covid “vaccines,” drugs, and tests. Scientific American endorses Harris, saying she’s the right choice for your health. Kundera makes no distinction between legal and illegal vandalism. Bret puts forward further arguments for why it is the time to Rescue the Republic, and why fear is not the way forward. Heather reads about serpent badassery at the equinox. ***** Our sponsors: Brain.fm: intense music that boosts productivity.

In this 243rd in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we talk about the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. In this week’s episode, we discuss the evidence for the traps being laid by Goliath, continuing last episode’s discussion of the presidential debate. Then: sex, gender, meaning, and identity. What kind of science is being done that concludes that sex and gender are not just distinct, but unrelated? And why are 10 year olds being asked if they’re transgender, or how much they feel like a boy, or a girl? While “scientists” use models to produce results that make no sense, adolescents stop pursuing meaning, which is dynamic and expands one’s horizons, and instead focus on identity, which is all too-often a static dead-end. ***** Our sponsors: CrowdHealth: Pay for healthcare with crowdfunding instead of insurance.

In this 242nd in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we talk about the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. In this week’s episode, we discuss the presidential debate: what happened, and how much of it constituted traps, set for us to fall in to? How was the magic trick done? Also: when people tell you who they are, believe them. Finally: bats bats bats bats bats. As insectivorous bats succumb to a fungal disease (White Nose Syndrome), farmers respond by using more insecticides, and in those areas where higher insecticide use has been documented, infant deaths are on the rise. ***** Our sponsors: CBDistillery: Cannabinoid products that are safe, clean, and effective.

In this 241st in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we talk about the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. In this week’s episode, we discuss food, science, and myth. Research out of Tufts University three years ago created the Food Compass—a new guide to what is healthy that rivals the Food Pyramid for sheer lunacy. Advising us that Froot Loops and Pringles are healthier choices than meat and eggs, the authors of that research are now promoting ESG + Nutrition, in which their Food Compass informs governments and private enterprise on how to get the population of the world to follow along. Then: What is history, what is myth, and when is it appropriate to stop talking and be quiet already? Real figures from history—Jesus, King David, Churchill—are also mythic; to what degree do the myths verge from the reality, and what are the conditions under which we are obliged to care? Also mentioned: the Censorship Industrial Complex, Pathological Noble Liars, and Dumbledore’s Army. Finally: a few words on the death of Paul Harrell, who advocated for the responsible use of firearms. ***** Our sponsors: Sundays: Dog food so tasty and healthy, even husbands swear by it.

Bret speaks with Dr. Joomi Kim on the discovery that some of the processes biologists use are not what they believe they are and the implications this could potentially have on science. Dr. Joomi Kim is a molecular biologist and author of the Substack, Let’s Be Clear where she challenges the mainstream narratives about COVID-19. Please note, Dr. Kim offers the following correction: “While describing the steps of western blots it may have sounded like antibodies get added before the blotting step (when proteins are transferred from gel to membrane). Antibodies are added after the blotting step."

In this 240th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we talk about the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. In this week’s episode, we discuss joy and the Democratic Party. Who is sending all the texts asking for money to support the democrats, and what are they actually trying to accomplish? Discussion of push polls and push texts, bread and circuses, ponies and balloons. Also: the party of science doesn’t understand science. And: why did RFK Jr. talk to the Harris campaign? Finally: actual joy, mixed with sadness, as our children leave home. Why parenting is the most amazing job you can have, and how any population that forgets that is at risk of losing the plot, if it hasn’t already. ***** Our sponsors: Manukora: the most flavorful, delicious, and nutritious honey you’ll ever have.

In this 239th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we talk about the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. In this week’s episode, we discuss AI, specifically how Grok responded to the prompt “image of Cartesian crisis,” whether AI is conscious, and whether it makes art. What is art, and are humans required to make it, or do search and memory suffice? Not art: the rendering of the national anthem at the Democratic National Convention. Speaking of which: what demographic is most strongly democratic? Answer: Childless, never married women ages 20 – 45. We discuss how this affects policy and society. And: the quasi-announcement that Kennedy may leave the presidential race. Finally—Zack is going off on new adventures. ***** Our sponsors: Caraway: Non-toxic, beautiful, light ceramic cookware.
