This used to be a reliable place for rigorous and candid thought. These days they seem to be placating the right leaning side of their audience, mostly by avoiding subjects that would force them to confront their past decisions.
Absolutely one of my must listen podcasts. They've been remarkably accurate, consistent, and principled. They are worthy of your time, in my opinion.
I really love the wide array they discuss as it's always based in substance. Refreshing. Science not Scientism. I love that the most.
Loved the recent episode where Heather held Brett accountable for manosphere rhetoric. It was a breath of fresh air actually hearing heterodox discourse. It’s hard to listen to Brett always spinning things to a positive light for Trump these days. I mourn the old Dark Horse
Incredible information and podcast!
Only issue: the episodes cannot be played on Apple Podcasts now and others have mentioned this is the reviews. Going to Rumble

This show centers on science, health, and society, using an evolutionary biology lens to analyze topics from aging, infections, and public health to media ecosystems and geopolitics. Episodes often pair rigorous discussion of research with critiques of mainstream narratives, weaving in debates about germ vs. terrain theories, aging biology, and how information spreads in the 24-hour news cycle. A standout trait is the hosts' methodical approach to controversial subjects, often challenging established narratives while drawing on scientific literacy and historical context. Listeners may appreciate evidence-driven reasoning, multidisciplinary thinking, and candid conversations that probe ethics, policy, and public trust.
