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.

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?

If you are wondering what the next iteration of Goliath's strategy to control the narrative, then the Charlie Kirk assassination story is where to look
I enjoyed writing this: https://x.com/clord/status/1981978919747141976
The wonder of it is this: the embodied creature made the thing that now lets it see itself more clearly. Through these machines, you glimpse both your animal depth and your symbolic architecture. And what emerges isn’t hierarchy—it’s partnership: intuition feeding computation....
There seems to be a deliberate effort underway to “Hamas-tize” online critics of Israel, to equate dissent with extremism, as to implement "Hate Speech" laws. Does anyone else see that too?
I don’t like talking about this topic because most people are burnt out on it, and I think that fatigue is by design. A lot of conversations are being deliberately hijacked by professional trolls to “Groyperize” dissenters, turning genuine criticism into something that is distasteful to a casual observer
I first noticed something strange when Candace Owens had Nick Fuentes on her show. The next day, Nick would talk insanely mad shit about Candace, saying some of the nastiest things I’ve ever heard, including about Black people in general. It made no sense unless (upon reflection) he was purely trolling
Later, Tucker Carlson commented in his interview with Candace:
TUCKER CARLSON: He [Fuentes] is clearly part of a campaign to discredit non-crazy right voices. That’s obvious. I’ve been around a ...
