What has Happened to Science in the United States?

The Atlantic’s Attack on Tallow

NY Times Sympathizes with Ozempic & the Junk Food Industry

VILPA (Vigorous Intermittent Lifestyle Physical Activity)

A new vision for American science

Objects in the Sky

New DarkHorse Store & Closing

In this 254th 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 discuss science, scientists, and the mainstream media. How can the New York Times and The Atlantic simultaneously be so opposed to Kennedy, and so in favor of the industrial sludge being promoted by Big Pharma and Big Food? A new research result finds that women who move for a few seconds every day are less likely to have heart attacks than women who move for no seconds at all. Our standards have sunk very, very low. Science Magazine tells us that American science needs a new vision, but doesn’t tell us what that vision should be. And we discuss why not knowing an answer, and using observation and inference to try to deduce it, is a better route to knowledge and autonomy than is looking up the answer right away. ***** Our sponsors: Sundays: Dog food so tasty and healthy, even husbands swear by it.
