I listened to the entire video and I’m still left confused about what the practical application of this endeavor is exactly. Maybe I’m missing some context or something but I’m lost in terms of what’s being discussed about normativity. What’s the main sort of question(s) we are trying to answer with these practices/methods? Why is this question important? How do we know this is a good question to ask?

Sheldon must have died when he heard Trump got elected. 😅

Excellent interview

Sheldon talks way more sense than Jordan Peterson

In the beginning Bobby said that it isn't until life that the universe got memory...would geological mapping be a sort of memory being held?

Great conversation, guys; despite much of it being wildly outside my experience, it was great to listen to. Mental modals FTW :)

Fascinating conversation. I've subscribed to this channel, and looking very much forward to Steve Stewart-Williams' new book on sex differences.

I wonder if there is substantial behavioral/psychological evolution in relatively isolated populations. Some have proposed the Amish. Late teen Amish have to go out in the non-Amish world for a year. If they like it, they stay. If not, they go back to the community. So the community gets more and more "pro-Amish". Okay with hard physical work and a relative lack of entertainment/novelty. Something similar may be happening with Orthodox Jews. Why this may be important is that these groups also have a culture that encourages lots of children. As just about all other high-income cultures result in well below replacement birth rates, these conservative (for want of a better word) people will become larger and larger proportions of the population.

Sapolsky was mentioned, can anyone explain the context? Didn’t get „his work“ part in the conversation…

Amazing conversation! John is a treasure.

I don't know how this channel ended up in my recommended, but I'm glad it did. You've got great interviewing abilities and you did a good job pressing on the potential weakspots that Vaush's answers might've had and helped him flesh out a more clear image of what his views are. They can be hard to understand and digest watching his streams, given how quick his chat is to interrupt and jump on him.

Vaush is very well spoken. Great conversation

great audio from both guys- but they call themselves leftists? curious

Great conversation!

Very good convo :) Thank you for this

what an unbelievably good conversation. im very glad i watched this, im hoping for a part 2 (:

I really enjoyed your video on "Can you Define Good or Bad art?". And ever since than I've enjoyed your openness to topics and the general quality of your inquiries/opinions. They're always good food for thought, and food that doesn't seem ready to be shoved down my throat, so I'm really looking forward to more content on here. Can't wait.
