In this 77th 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. In this episode, we discuss this week’s verdict in the Chauvin trial; what is actually going on in Portland, and how local leadership is responding; and how journalism is faring. We discuss a new proposal for paid leave for employees; and reflect on Bret’s recent conversation with Geert Vanden Bossche, and the response by Facebook. At the top of the hour, Heather mentions the death of a friend.
