The Next Sexual Revolution: The 306th Evolutionary Lens with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying

On this, our 306th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss men and women, relationships and strategies. What is actually true of young women right now? Is the manosphere onto some uncomfortable and deep truths, or do they suffer from sampling and confirmation bias? What role is porn playing? Social media? Is the nonsense that emerged from #MeToo, with regard to blaming all men, seeing an analog now in the blaming of women? However: men and women are different. Women are more likely to think they have a “right to be right,” to embrace ideologies that privilege victims and grievances, and to be neurotic. Just as encouraging men to embrace their emotional side can enhance many men’s lives, encouraging women to embrace the physical world is likely to enhance their lives. Finally: a book recommendation (Playground). ***** Our sponsors: Manukora: the most delicious and nutritious honey you’ll ever have.

Was Darwin wrong? The 305th Evolutionary Lens with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying

On this, our 305th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss evolution, including major transitions from sea to land (early amphibians), and back again (e.g. whales), and the evidence. Where should we expect gaps in the fossil record, and why? How are adaptations to space and time analogous to one another? Then: lab grown pig fat is combined with plant protein and turned into meatballs that pretend to be pork. What could go wrong? Prediction: they’ll be carcinogenic. Finally: GLP-1s—e.g. Ozempic—have so many side effects. Now on people’s radar: they decrease drive and pleasure in all things, including libido. ***** Our sponsors: Everyday Dose: Coffee plus collagen, mushrooms & nootropics – delicious!

Science: The Rebel Reboot | The 304th Evolutionary Lens with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying

On this, our 304th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss the mainstream media’s pivot, in which they now tentatively accept that some children have died from the mRNA Covid shots. We discuss failing trust in science, why it will not be quick to fix the institutions or to people them with honest scientists, and the rebels in the hills who are keeping the flame alive. Also, the application of the phrase “safe and effective” to products that are neither. Then: hominids have been making and controlling fire for far longer than we had thought. And: hadrosaurid dinosaurs were, perhaps, quite clumsy at sex. ***** Our sponsors: Caraway: Non-toxic, highly functional & beautiful cookware and bakeware. http://Carawayhome.com/DH10 to for up to 25% off your next purchase.
