Alex joins us on Aporia to dissect the dual mate hypothesis, also known as strategic pluralism, and its implications for understanding human mating strategies. Far from the clear-cut narratives often spun in certain corners of the internet, Alex explains that the concept has been distorted beyond its scientific origins, leading to some pervasive myths about women’s mating behaviors. We invite you to listen in as we unravel the threads of evolutionary psychology, challenging the notion that women universally adopt short-term mating strategies at the drop of a hat.

In this episode, Harvard's Dr. Michael Rosen joins Bo Winegard for a deep exploration of Nietzsche, Kant, Hegel, and the Passage from Heaven to History. At issue is the fundamental question of life without God. If God is dead, then how do humans find meaning or justice? Should they accept that the funeral of God is also the funeral of humanism, of objective morality, et cetera—or should they adjust their metaphysical premises while preserving their ideals?
