Summary
In this 195th 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 the attacks on Israel by Hamas on October 7. We discuss values: Old Testament versus the West. We discuss frontiers, both legitimate and illegitimate, and terrorism. We discuss land rights and first peoples. We discuss the “Coalition Slicer-Dicer” and the perverse incentives of those who would keep us at war, keep us sick, and keep us from talking to one another.

| 0:00.0 | Hey folks, welcome to the Dark Horse Podcast live stream number 195. I'm Dr. Brett Weinstein. |
| 0:16.5 | I'm of course sitting with Dr. Heather Hying. We are trying an experiment. We are broadcasting |
| 0:20.9 | for the first time live on the platform formerly known as Twitter. So that is an interesting |
| 0:27.6 | experiment. I hope it works well and we will figure out what exactly to do with it. I will ask |
| 0:34.7 | people a couple of things before we get moving here. One is we are broadcasting on my account |
| 0:43.6 | for various reasons, but I would ask you to sign up for our podcast account. The handle is |
| 0:51.4 | the dark horse pod. So that's on Twitter. Please just sign up for it. That way you will see future |
| 0:59.8 | materials that we broadcast here. And I would also ask you to sign up for our channel on |
| 1:08.0 | rumble and check out our community on locals. People often ask us how they can support us and |
| 1:13.8 | there are a lot of ways to support us, which we will talk about here in a second. But these are |
| 1:17.8 | things you can do that actually do have a material benefit. They make it easier for us to function |
| 1:24.2 | in the world and they cost you nothing. So please sign up for those two things if you don't choose |
| 1:31.1 | to do something else. Appreciate it. All right. So here we are on Twitter. We're on rumble. We're on |
| 1:37.4 | YouTube. Watch party is live on locals. And also I guess for your subscribers on Twitter, |
| 1:44.5 | there is chat app. No, not happening at all. Okay. We're learning folks. It's a live fire exercise. |
| 1:53.0 | I'm sure that's the right time. Wrong week for that. Yeah. It's the wrong week for that. |
| 1:58.5 | So we're doing this today. We're going to have two more livestreams coming up dark horse livestreams |
| 2:04.9 | evolutionary lens coming up on Saturday and again on Tuesday. And then we're taking a hiatus. |
| 2:09.8 | But we're also having a private Q&A this weekend through locals. So lots of places to |
| 2:14.7 | to see what we're talking about in the next week. And then there will be some wonderful guest |
| 2:18.8 | podcasts coming out while we're on livestream hiatus. I think maybe we'll just jump right into |
| 2:25.3 | the ads of sponsors. We always have three sponsors at the top of the hour. So let us just say we have |
