I really object to a few minor details that bring nothing to the overall argument, and, because they are so artificial and contrived, even detract from the depth and quality of the presentation. For instance, the grotesquely inflated naked man holding a bunch of grapes to portray the distortion of obesity. Amusing perhaps as a caricature on the Internet. But here, the figure is so unreal and absurd that it detracts from the point being made. Much better and much more convincing would have been to scan a few pictures of the crowd in a large Walmart, say in Texas, and pick a few images of real, insanely obese shoppers with their monstrous carts. The effect could have been as comical (probably more), but also much more believable and instructive. Similarly, in the same vein, at the very end, why label his own video as a "horrible" lecture? Trying to sound facetious? But this is not very funny, a kind of fake humility that does not carry the day. He could as easily have joked about his often hesitating patter while searching for a linking word that would bring him a sudden deliverance from his stuttering style, and launch him into a machine-gun like delivery of ideas and facts nearly impossible to follow. Prof. Lieberman's natural speaking style is spontaneously amusing enough not to need any fake self-deprecation. The lecture is in fact extraordinarily fascinating. He could have joked that it is far too short and overly simplified, for instance. "Horrible", for whatever effect is in view, is not the right word, and it does project a false note.- which I, for one, found irritatingly useless.

Thank you for sharing the importance of preventative medicine, i.e. exercise, diet, & healthy living in general.
Such a brilliant man!
A profound insight into evolution would help improve medicine in many ways
Please go on the Darkhorse podcast. Would love to listen to you converse with bret and heather.
Love this stuff. Thank you.
Look at the pottengers cat experiment.

Some people may find you annoying but I didn't. Loved reading all the rant.
