Why Even Try? The 322nd Evolutionary Lens with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying

Sat, 11 Apr 2026 18:32:07 GMT

On this, our 322nd Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss the Cartesian crisis, whether going to the moon is valuable, and college in the age of AI. Before the ads, we discuss the nature of knowledge, and whether paying attention all the time, to all the things, can backfire and make a personal less capable of comprehension. Later: why go to the moon? An op-ed writer at The Guardian says there’s no point—there’s nothing to see, no one to talk to. We discuss the value of science—not just in terms of what we become capable of doing, but also for the human values of awe and wonder, openness and curiosity. As humans, we must encourage discovery, innovation, and exploration; we cannot cave to the fearful, provincial, and bland. Finally: professors and students are in an arms race over AI. A better move would be to seek two wildly different educational modes: one in which no outside sources of knowledge are available at all (e.g. a remote site with no cell service), and classroom-based work that encourages engagement and learning from and with the AI.

The Games We Play: The 321st Evolutionary Lens with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying

Wed, 08 Apr 2026 18:34:14 GMT

On this, our 321st Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss AI, Iran, Trump, emergencies in the state of Washington, and stories from the Covid era. Anthropic, which makes Claude, announced that they are halting the release of their latest model due to unexpected capacities it has revealed. We discuss trade-offs, exploration, and game theory as they pertain to bats and planes, cats and humans, and LLMs. Then: did Trump make a genocidal threat against Iran? And: what emergency in the state of Washington could possibly apply to college tuition, out-of-state militias, accurate representation of sex on government IDs, and responding to pandemics? Answer: all the legislature has to do to make their ideas referendum-proof is declare that they are responding to an emergency—they do not even have to say what the emergency is. Finally: our memories of the Covid Era have begun to fade and morph, but it is important that we keep them alive.

Who exactly belongs in the Stone Ages?

Mon, 06 Apr 2026 15:21:08 GMT

WEINSTEIN: I mean, even if you have your villains who are engaged in the behavior that motivated this war in Iran, even if that's the story, presumably most of the people in the path of these ferocious bombings that he is describing are not deserving of going back to the Stone Age.

In fact, I distinctly remember him telling us that part of what we were up to was liberating the people of Iran from their tyrannical regime.

So if it's the tyrannical regime that justifies the ferocious bombing, then it's a tragedy that other people are going to be sent back to the Stone Ages with them. Right?

HEYING: It's it's not a narrative. It's an incoherent set of talking points.

WEINSTEIN: Yeah, it's a kind of cheerleading that is completely inappropriate from the perspective of the president.

Bret Weinstein discusses the Trump administrations "back to the stone age" recent remarks in the latest episode of The Evolutionary Lens, Episode 320 "Are we back in the stone age?" on DarkHorse.

Are we back in the stone age? The 320th Evolutionary Lens with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying

Sat, 04 Apr 2026 17:05:17 GMT

On this, our 320th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss whether it can happen here, or again. It is genocide. Growing up in a secular Jewish household in the 1970s and ‘80s, Bret remembers many discussions of whether it could happen again, and where, but it seems to be assumed that the repeated targets of atrocities cannot themselves ever engage in atrocity. Is this true? We discuss lineage selection, the nature of history and memory, diaspora, Israel. Also, the belligerence of the U.S. again Iran. Then: Washington state is allowing non-citizens to become peace and corrections officers, but if any in those positions make mean gestures or social media posts, they can be fired. Toxicity of both stripes—masculine and feminine—are in command in our political landscape, and we seem to have no good options.

Washington's 9.9% "Millionaires Tax" Isn't That Simple | DarkHorse 319

Fri, 03 Apr 2026 18:00:24 GMT

Washington state has voted in the first ever income tax (for high earners), quick on the heels of its first ever capital gains tax, while still having some of the highest estate, sales, property, and fuel taxes in the country. Meanwhile, the cost of living is skyrocketing, and the quality of services declining. Our highways are third worst in the nation; our cities are filthy and unsafe; our schools are miseducating children (at best). Is the money being used for anything useful?

Watch the full episode: https://youtube.com/live/t3U-d3KNkW8

"If you stop businesses from starting here, and if you drive people so that they move elsewhere—even though it’s difficult to do—then the point is the tax base dries up, which then forces you to become even more predatory for the people who stayed.

And that’s really the thing, right? They’re setting themselves up so that they have to go after more and more people, because the people who are starting new businesses are not going to do it here." - Bret Weinstein

The Essence of Woke Explained | DarkHorse 318

Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying explore the pressures to prematurely close off possibilities by examining woke" as a social phenomenon where dissent is pressured and consensus is enforced.

"...There's banish, we're not gonna platform you because you've lost your mind and there's coercion. We're gonna get you back on board with the consensus. And those two things are basically a choice. Either you get back on board with the consensus or you're out."

Careful Thinking in Reckless Times: The 318th Evolutionary Lens w/ Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying

Wed, 25 Mar 2026 17:00:31 GMT

On this, our 318th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss how to understand our universe: through logic, intuition, and probability, through keeping track of what we believe, and being willing to change our minds. Avoiding certainty is difficult, but necessary. Using examples of who killed Charlie Kirk, and whether the venue where he was speaking suggests black magic, we discuss how to make sense of the world in a scientific way. Meanwhile in Washington: a $1 bill is booked into evidence.

Judge's Viral Dissent in Women-Only Spa | DarkHorse 317

Fri, 20 Mar 2026 16:32:17 GMT

Olympus Spa, a traditional Korean nude spa for women in the Seattle area, was told by the state of Washington, now upheld by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, that they must let men in, so long as those men think they’re women. Judge VanDyke’s dissent correctly summarizes the issue as one of “swinging dicks.”

Full Episode: https://youtube.com/live/ZoZIte3T0Ec

Heather Heying explains:

"These are such clowns. These judges are such clowns. And one of them’s a woman who apparently gives no fucks about the women and girls as young as 13, who might go to this amazing spa and be exposed to a very confused and mentally unstable man who’s got his balls and dick out.

More likely, frankly, most of us who once went to this amazing business are not going to go anymore. They’re going to have put out of business a Korean family who happened to be conservative Christians because of what? Because of confusion about basic biology and ideology that is driving the entire state mad.

Most all the West Coast, certainly the state of Washington.

It’s frankly unbelievable. And I just—I love their outrage that is directed at the one guy who stood up, was like, “You know what this is actually about? I’ll tell you what this is actually about, since we’re so busy having decorum that no one is talking about it. This is actually about the swinging dicks...”

How good are your AirPods for you?The answer is: that depends if you’re a mouse- more in Episode 317

"From your perspective, how good are your AirPods for you?

The answer is: that depends if you’re a mouse that was bred in one of these idiotic protocols.

If you are a mouse, where do you get AirPods? You probably want AirPods, maybe more than one set.

If you’re not a mouse, then this is an indicator that it’s actually dangerous.

The fact that the mice live longer is not good news.

It’s bad news because a toxin that you will not tolerate well will function like chemotherapy, or in this case like radiation therapy does on a cancer patient."

Is Cell Phone Radiation Good For You? The 317th Evolutionary Lens w/ Bret Weinstein & Heather Heying

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 17:00:34 GMT

On this, our 317th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss radiation and its impact on (rodent) health, and the 9th circuit’s decision to let men use women’s spas. First: research published in 2018 finds that low levels of non-ionizing radiation—like that emitted by cell phones and air pods—are actually associated with life extension in mice and rats. Don’t get too excited—these are the same rodents whose breeding protocols have broken them in some counter-intuitive ways, including that low doses of toxins or radiation can actually slow down the cancer that will otherwise kill them. Then: Olympus Spa, a traditional Korean nude spa for women in the Seattle area, was told by the state of Washington, now upheld by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, that they must let men in, so long as those men think they’re women. Judge VanDyke’s dissent correctly summarizes the issue as one of “swinging dicks.”

New Paper CONFIRMS Bret Weinstein's Prediction About Aging | DarkHorse 316

Tue, 17 Mar 2026 19:55:45 GMT

A new paper finds that infection tends to lead to greater frailty in older people. This reverses the causality of Terrain Theory of Disease (frailty of the body leads to greater susceptibility of infection), and also provides support for a prediction made by Bret and his co-author Debbie Ciszek in the unpublished, longer version of their reserve capacity paper from 2002.

Cleaning “spas,” massive brains, and mirror experiments.

"Do these truths about manta rays make them less beautiful to you? Have I stolen wonder from you by telling you some of what we know? Or rather, have I provided you even more basis on which to find more wonder, seek more beauty in the world? I hope that the latter is true."

- Dr. Heather Heying reading the beginning of the chapter on beauty from her upcoming book

Fog of War: The 316th Evolutionary Lens with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying

Sat, 07 Mar 2026 19:33:59 GMT

On this, our 316th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss health, science, and the Cartesian crisis as it relates to global events. First: a new paper finds that infection tends to lead to greater frailty in older people. This reverses the causality of Terrain Theory of Disease (frailty of the body leads to greater susceptibility of infection), and also provides support for a prediction made by Bret and his co-author Debbie Ciszek in the unpublished, longer version of their reserve capacity paper from 2002. Then: what we are seeing on our personal media feeds does not make us eye-witnesses to anything—not necessarily. Plato’s Cave of Mirrors means that we are all fed different media diets, and skills such as observation, discernment, and hypothesis generation, inherently fail when nobody can establish what is actually true. Recommendation: start comparing notes with other people as to what they are seeing, rather than what they think it means.

Breach of Promise: The 315th Evolutionary Lens with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying

Wed, 04 Mar 2026 19:33:56 GMT

On this, our 315th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss war, breaches of promise, and manta rays. Why are we at war in Iran, when this president promised “no new wars”? Removing dictators and strongmen from the world is honorable—but will the Iranian people thrive after this move, or will this look more like Iraq? Can we reconcile what Secretary of State Rubio said about why we started the war, versus what Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said? Then: Kansas has reversed course on letting put a chosen gender identity on official documents rather than your biological sex—to the good—but they did so in a way guaranteed to create havoc and make things very hard for the people who need to get new IDs. These are people who broke no laws, but are being treated badly by the state as if they did. Finally: manta rays are extraordinary and deeply intelligent; we share footage and words about them. Finally, a shout out to Covid Era Stories.

The Mythology of "Good People" and the Politics of Vaccine Compliance

Thu, 19 Feb 2026 16:32:36 GMT

Bret Weinstein explains that “the mythology that is necessary for us to function” is captured by “power players and money” to “convince us that we know who the good people are-

The good people are the ones who go to the doctor and get the injection that makes us all safe from disease. And the bad ones are the crazies or the selfish ones who, because there's some tiny little risk of something, aren't doing their part to protect the entire planet or whatever the thing is.

And the point is, this mythology is somebody's position statement that they have lodged in a kind of religious place in the in the population.”

Epstein Probably DID Survive - Bret Weinstein Explains Why | DarkHorse 313

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 18:54:43 GMT

Bret Weinstein argues that Epstein is probably still alive based on game theory.

Full episode: https://youtube.com/live/zdHWtSB_rNI

00:00 Why It Matters If Epstein Is Alive
01:13 Evidence That's Weird
05:55 Bret's Take on Why He's Alive
08:15 Ruling Out Possibilities
09:39 What Game Theory Suggests

"So I think that that suggests that in light of his being incarcerated, there would be a lot of very powerful people, people with superpowers at their disposal.

If this involved intelligence agencies, those are the kinds of people who have the ability to fake evidence, to create events, to disappear people and put them in witness protection or whatever it is that they do.

So the game theory alone suggests that this should be a primary concern for the public.

And if he is still alive, obviously he's still a witness to whatever it was he was participating in. And he knows who else was participating."

Epstein, Trivers, and Gender: The 312th Evolutionary Lens with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 19:37:18 GMT

On this, our 312th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss the fact that the centre cannot hold. More Epstein files were released, which included an email from our friend and former mentor, Robert Trivers. We discuss his contributions, his life, and what the email does and does not imply. Also in the Epstein files: pizza, torture, Bitcoin, and the “goyim.” Was it all about blackmail; if not, what? And what is the CEO of TikTok on about, with regard to hate speech? Finally: a silver lining in the madness, as gender clinics close down and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (finally) takes the position that “gender-affirming” surgeries should not be done to people before the age of 19.

The Rise of Cry Bullies | DarkHorse 311

Tue, 03 Feb 2026 22:07:17 GMT

Bret Weinstein reacts to a study presented by Heather Heying in Episode 311 of The Evolutionary Lens, which suggests that, unlike men, women tend to show empathy regardless of whether it is justified.

“Everybody is competing for the claim of most victimized because that brings about the most power.”

Bret Weinstein on Alex Pretti's Reckless Gun Behavior | DarkHorse 311

Thu, 29 Jan 2026 20:40:02 GMT

Bret Weinstein shares explains the legal, but reckless behavior of Alex Pretti on the day he was shot.

"There are numerous things here, which I would say he is legally entitled to do, but I would regard as reckless and I don't mean legally reckless, I mean reckless in the common parlance sense of the term."

Rorschach Trap: The 311th Evolutionary Lens with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying

Wed, 28 Jan 2026 19:42:00 GMT

On this, our 311th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss what is happening in Minneapolis. First: research finds that on average, men and women experience empathy differently: men do not have empathy for people who have done wrong; women have empathy for people regardless of context. Then: Was the Alex Pretti shooting by ICE officers in Minneapolis a cold-blooded murder, or a justified homicide? How would we know? Few of us were actual eye-witnesses to the scene, but our modern media environment tricks us into believing, unconsciously, that we know more than we do. This feels like Portland in 2020. We are being manipulated into disjunct narratives, taught to distrust and fear one another, at ever greater distance from simply being good neighbors and fellow citizens. Finally: an invitation to submit Covid Era Stories.

Two years ago, The Atlantic published an issue predicting what would happen if Trump won a second term; they get a few things right, a lot wrong, and blame Trump for their own personal neuroses.

"We have placed the neuroses of women who are interested in being vocal and active front and center and allowed those neuroses to triumph over reality." - Heather Heying
