#139 Science Surrenders (Bret Weinstein & Heather Heying DarkHorse Livestream)

Aug 27 2022 • 1hr 40m

Show Notes

In this 139th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we discuss the state of the world through an evolutionary lens.This week, we discuss whether reality is going to be tolerated—by internet randos, by magazines supposedly devoted to disseminating scientific findings to an interested public, and by actual scientific journals. A new editorial in Nature Human Behavior is breath-taking in its rejection of the scientific process and values, and, therefore, of reality. Then: what anti-scientific buffoonery is behind not allowing unvaccinated-against-Covid Novak Dvokovic, argued by some to be the best tennis player ever, to compete in the U.S. Open? And: what is the New York Times up to?*****Support the sponsors of the show:Wisdom Health: Get your health back by working with functional medicine practitioners.

Leftist liberals have always denied reality. In fact to prove my point, name leftist liberal programs that have failed by all measures that are no longer a platform of the liberals? Leftist just double down.
