#67: What the W.H.O? (Bret Weinstein & Heather Heying DarkHorse Livestream)
DarkHorse Podcast
The Failure of West's Traditions and Its Impact
This chapter explores the absence of deep traditions in the West and how it has led to certain issues. The importance of ritualized public events, like carnival, is also discussed as a counterpoint to the derangement of the West.
In this 67th 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.
