All right. I'm Jack Grealish. I think you can listen to music from relaxing to

celebrating to getting yourself prepared. I like all sorts honestly I like hip-hop-ar and

beer and then house music as well, so yeah, there's no guilty

fait around here. Jack wears the Bose Quiet Comfort Ultra headphones, enjoying

his favorite music with more immersive sound than ever before.

Wow, music's just everything, isn't it?

Search Bose headphones.

Bose, sound is power.

Hello and welcome to a very special live episode of Trigonometry. It's great to have you here. We have a fantastic guest if you're a first time viewer of the show

We have a very special slogan don't we Francis it is it's honest conversations with fascinating people and it does not get any more fascinating than the guest we have for you today.

The last time we spoke to him, the title of that episode was, we can stop a civil war. Let's find out if he still thinks so.

Brett Weinstein, welcome back to Trigonometry.

Well, thanks for having me. It's good to be here, guys.

Yeah, can we stop a civil war? That's the question, huh? Yeah, well, why don't we just start right there?

Yeah, I would say it's still possible, but you know, the more times we kick the can down the road, the harder it gets.

And that's really at some level the lesson of the last several decades.

This is not a problem that can be ignored forever and you know it's a bit like

quitting smoking. The fact that it's difficult is not an argument against doing it right now

because it only gets more so., before we get into the analysis of everything that happened yesterday in the bigger

picture because it's something you've been talking for a while, I should just say I forgot to mention

at the top.

For everybody watching, welcome. If you want to ask a question please
