#200: Is Nothing Sacred? (Bret Weinstein & Heather Heying DarkHorse Livestream)

DarkHorse Podcast

In this 200th 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 gender equity in infant care, and what makes workplaces so toxic that women are leaving academia. And we give thanks to many of the people who stood up to tyranny and lies in the last few years.
