    #196 War on Our Minds (Bret Weinstein & Heather Heying DarkHorse Livestream)

    In this 196th 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 astronomical events, like today’s annular eclipse—that exist with or without human awareness of them. What would the ancients have thought of an eclipse? We discuss science, and the risk to us all as we take the S out of STEM, leaving an applied, human-centric set of fields that are missing their foundation. We discuss Roger Waters—his modern takes on Israel and Palestine, and his dreams and words as recorded in the music of Pink Floyd. We too wish for a world in which no one kills the children anymore, and are having a difficult time defining the shape of this moment in time. Finally: where are the neocons now?

    Gazing into the Eclipse

    Gazing into the Eclipse

    Amid the regular cycle of sun and moon stalks a darkness -- a darkness that ancient humans perceived as cosmic abandonment, portent and demonic disruption. In this episode of Stuff to Blow Your Mind, Robert and Joe explore the celestial mechanics, mythology and terrestrial ramifications of solar and lunar eclipses.
