In this 253rd 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 follow the science to fewer cow farts. Bovear, an FDA approved product that is fed to cattle to reduce their production of methane, is the result of yet more reductionist, metric-heavy research that conflates complex systems with complicated ones. Bill Gates approves, though, so what could go wrong? We discuss ruminant biology, the actual Carbon impact of grazing cattle, and some other great new products from the makers of Bovear, including “the world’s first-ever flavor created by artificial intelligence.” Then: why is the BBC’s disinformation wing concerned about what Bret said on Diary of a CEO? What happened to journalism? Finally: it’s Thanksgiving tomorrow. Liberals are supposed to be high in openness—consider being open to the differing views of your friends and family, and have a wonderful time together.

Will European wheat have an effect on Bret Weinstein? This is Part II of his European experiment, the results.

Dr. Bret Weinstein is running an experiment on himself. After a decade of avoiding wheat he has tried eating it while in Spain. In this update video he explains how he has been feeling and answers common questions around glyphosate and dry fasting.

Do you have a wheat allergy? Have you been able to eat wheat in Europe without the symptoms you experience in America? After a decade without intentionally eating wheat, Bret Weinstein is running an experiment while visiting Spain - will the European wheat cause the same symptoms he experiences when stateside?

Over on Michael Malice's Your Welcome, @bretweinstein was the guest, and afterward, there was a Locals-only Q&A with Bret. The first question was "How would you respond to Scott Adam's conjecture that Simulation Theory is a better explanation for the world than Evolution."
First, props to Bret for pointing out off the bat that Simulation Theory and Creationism are functionally the same thing. Never thought of that, but obviously true.
But second, he extrapolates his own assertion, that the universe seems to be made expressly for evolution, there's too much evidence for it. Any theory that might assert that evolution is not actually happening, it's an illusion, would have to really make you question the character of that Creator.
God would have been DIABOLICAL to design a universe with evolution in it and hide Himself from it after?!? That only a MALEVOLENT god would create a fact pattern and physical structure and law of the universe to suggest that evolution existed just for yuks?
Au ...
Nothing new to anyone here, but Tom Bilyeu posted a detailed-yet-succinct summary of the issues with "experts." In a 30 minute recap, he covers the need for specialists, and the hazards of tunnel vision and calcification. I'm sharing not to educate you all, but to provide a tool you all could use to summarize 3 years of Dark Horse to your friends, ha.
Fascinating article about mitochondria.
“Diabetes, neurodegenerative conditions, cancer and even mental health illnesses are all emerging as metabolic disorders involving malfunctioning mitochondria.”
