EDIT NOTE: I edited this episode quickly and made a couple of mistakes in how rough the cut looks. One weird cut is after the 2 hour mark, where it sounds like Bret is about to make a point, but I actually interrupt him for clarification and then go of on a tangent and never return. I edited out the interruption which made the cut look weird. I failed here both as an interviewer and editor. I'm trying to get better at both, and hire help for the latter, since I still do it all alone. Please be patient with me.

🙏❤
You've got me hooked, Lex. Seriously, your voice is completely hypnotizing. ❤️
@Queen Elsa omg ... its him 😨
Honestly, so good. 😊
Thank you both SO MUCH!
Can I argue against that?
“Please”
Wow we have time traveled to a time where human discourse can be civil
@Kyle careful there you don't want to cut someone with all that edge
@Kyle da fuq does that mean?
@Kyle Are you being woke or provocative?
@@quantumtimelines2846 provocative
@Kyle Coming from a guy named Kyle lol
Been following Dr Kory since I saw his senate address back in December. Relieved his voice is finally being heard. Bret has been instrumental in fostering this discussion also. These men are heroes. Thank you Lex 🙏🏻
I would love to see Dr Fauci come on this show and explain his actions
And would love to see Dr. Fauci welcome debate and disagreement too, but thats the opposite of who he is. Fauci is anti-science, personified- no different than a deviant Catholic priest is the opposite of everything that is good. Science is the new religion
So would I. Why do you think he did something wrong?
@@christopherwhittaker2620 Because Fauci and the NIH funded the Wuhan Lab, then he pushed the fraudulent natural origin theory to avoid responsibility. About a hundred other reasons too.. Fauci had plenty of help from the government, Big Tech, and Big Pharma..Anyway, listen to Weinstein's opinion of Fauci.. Do you normally agree with people who say " If you're questioning me, you're questioning science"?
what actions? can you be a little more precise?
Lex, I'm sure you hear this all the time, but here I go... you are evrything a thoughtful, humble, articulate, eloquent podcast host could hope to be. We love you, man.
Thanks for everything you do Lex.
-Dave the clips guy for Bret and Heather
So glad that you left a message because I wasn't aware of the clips channel. I subscribed as fast as I could move my fingers. 😝 Stay Blessed 🙏
You guys are both wonderful human beings :-) There is hope.
Thank you Bret.

Covid19 is Brainwash Covid.
Its a CRIME against Humanities.
Doctors and Scientists knew everything
when and where the origin and the development of Covid. They knew they
have developed the parasites of mucus-virus from different kind of animals which resulted to a very complicated mutations if introduced
to humans.. And since then from the
mouth of one expert the development
of such thing was continued to China
because its against the Law of the United
States and China have no laws on
prohibits when it comes to Businesses
and development of any kind.
That is why all of them opted for
vaccines and medicines to cover-up
the Mess instead of Searching and stopping the CULPRITS and the CRIMINALS. Rather they hassled and blamed the innocent humans. It could be
STOP if they wanted to BUT they did not
Stop and find the Criminals.
And they come up on their conclusions
it came only by accident as one expert
said by no way the virus just like an Alien
and kill every humans.
We want the TRUTH we are innocent Humans.
The Pandemic could be solve may be
within 3months and maximum of 5months if our International Safety
and Health, FOCUS on the CRIMINALS
responsible for spreading the Brainwash
Covid, in the first place we innocent
Humans have no and are not the Covid we are to be victimized. Instead you focus on the innocent Humans why not on the CRIMINALS you could easily pinned the Criminals with your Protocols by stopping the deliveries of the Brainwash Covid. Covid is not an Alien, covid has no brain to attacked Humans there must be a CRIMINALS.
Why is Israel declared zero Covid at
this time? Is it because of Protocols?
I believed not, its because the Criminals
decided to stop the deliveries of Covid
and Israel is heavily guarded 24hrs day and night.
Why is China is Covid free few months
passed and until now? it is because of
Protocols? I believe not, its because
the Criminals decided to stop the deliveries of Covid by any means and
China is heavily guarded,strict air and land and besides during the Pandemic
1million to 2million China Citizens stop
using celphones and smartphones and
the 3-big TELCO of China deficits billions of dollars. Is it a coincidence? The sabotage of the Criminals may be compensated.
If the International Security and Safety
and Health Organizations FOCUS on the
CRIMINALS not on the Innocent HUMANS
the Pandemic could be solve within 3months or maximum of 5months
like;China,North Korea,Israel etc.
Search and hunt the Criminals not the
Innocent Humans. The CRIMINALS
responsible the deliveries of the Covid.
I opted to proposed Innovation HELMET to protect
from BRAINWASH COVID and to Protect from harmful sounds,harmful electrical charged, harmful bio-chemicals for wars,electro-magnetic radiation or
any harmful events that contaminated with the environment or the atmosphere caused by greedy business Elites for profits.
A Helmet that can filtered all of the above rather than vaccines that never cures but
kills some allergy to it and the

During the Pandemic, as I exercised daily, I turned to the Darkhorse Podcasts in search for some actual science to break the monotony and think about science that Heather and Brett provided. I had no idea in what direction they would go. These people are so heroic! Thank you Lex for interviewing Brett. That required courage as well!
If you can listen to, and absorb the info from, a podcast while exercising then you're not really exercising. LOL
@@Jinsun202 Born with cerebral palsy affecting my legs, I have been exercising regularly since I was 32. You are right,, I have never been able to exercise at your level, I am sure. But, I have been driven enough to get a BsN and an MD and started a booming practice in Ob/Gyn! I am retired now and yes, I am still exercising, still ambulatory, AND listening to Darkhorse Podcast gratefully!
I agree, I started listening to them during the pandemic and it has sure been an interesting ride. I love that I can count on Bret and Heather to be unbiased.
@@Jinsun202 Easy to do during cardio
@@Jinsun202 light exercise such as walking is still very good.
I'm 51 and haven't felt any emotions other than fear and anger since I was 12. Watching this video and the one with Sam Harris forced me to feel such an intense wave of gratitude that I literally cried. I'm still struggling to absorb the idea that I'm not alone in valuing deeply profound thoughts. If you read this Lex/Bret/Sam please know you've all impacted my life in ways I'd not thought possible. From my heart, Thank you.
Awesome, we're definitely not alone in placing great value on deeply pondering our world and our own lives.
you should get that checked out bro. you definitely on a list or two now lmao
@@Christian-vy9fs Rigth?you mean to tell me this guy never got high or masturbated
what a lovely response. so eloquent 😊
You speak for many of us, brother.
Lex gets better and better at interviewing, and Brett is becoming super-efficient at getting reasoned points across. This was a great listen.
When I started I thought I will just check this out because it is a long video. But now. I’m taken back and am thankful I took the time to listen to it all. The spontaneous responses both of these men engage in makes me thankful I took the time to watch this entire segment. There’s so much to digest in this exchange that I will spend the next few days thinking about all of the information provided in this great podcast. Awesome is all I can say.
David this is old news. Look outside legacy media for information
Well said, I agree.
Every interview with Brett is worth watching.
@Art Chave 😆 I'm with you on that
@@andyvogel9817 I will check that virology link. I don't know enough about virology to be able to sift, but I do feel confident that Bret was not speaking in bad faith and noted that he avoided excess hubris to his assertions and possible hypotheses and questions. I don't see him parallel to Q-Anon crap like Plandemic (resentful ex doctor) or the first-aid clinic doctors.
On the other hand the fact that they censored Bret when he was speaking with a renowned experienced medical doctor (and censored his US Senate testimony), and have censored other legit medical doctors with mainstream cred .. except for a bit of a critical angle or even questions and curiosity, that's disconcerting.
I mean if YT wanted to censor somebody who said SARS-COV2 is a plan from the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, well I prefer no censorship but at least that reaction is understandable. Not this.
Three hours and seventeen minutes seemed like a long time before hand.
I was wrong 😁
Great conversation guys
When you listen to two thoughtful honest men exchanging ideas, time is not important.
Same here, the whole video I kept rewinding to make sure I understood! More like 4 hours for me, but worth it!
that'll be the 9 seconds you neglected to acknowledge effect ;)

This has been the best Fridman installment I've seen thus far, and I'm binge-watching it like a British housewife in loafers. I'm probably late to the party, but thank you Lex for your hard work, and don't worry - you're doing much better then TV studios were doing overall in ye olden times.
You are correct
I am literally hooked on your type of broadcasting
You be amazed what you are actually doing now
I have watched many podcasts by both of these men and this one is AMAZING! It was like watching a mentoring convo. I feel a bit like an interloper and I know both of them better as people for watching. Many more to come, I hope
Kudo's for having Bret on, his voice is really important right now.
agree
One of the most important honestly
@C M theeeey
@CM, you tube has been censoring for years but especially since 2020; glad people are finally realizing it.
@@cipaisone Yes, they. We all generally know what that means.
It’s been a rough week so this was exactly what I needed to hear Friday night. Grateful for this podcast tonight for my sanity. Thank you both.
Same
Are you okay? 😥
It's a broke day, but everything is okay
I'm up all night, but everything is alright
It's a rough week, and I don't get enough sleep
It's a long year, pretendin' I belong here
I read the rough week line and reminded me of the song Eminem It’s Ok.. great song. Love you all and love Lex!
hope u stay strong, hope ur wknd is better
@@jackerylel so much on my mind. I just hope that the truth, true science, will prevail in this crazy world today. The censorship, gas lighting and division is incredibly troubling.
Thanks for bringing Bret to your channel. You prove it´s possible talking about these subjects in a very civilized and clever way. Science needs this type of conversation in an urgent way to help us come out of these challenging times.
I'm so satisfied to see that Lex, for all his sticking to relatively "safe" interview topics, was as pissed off as I was when Bret got attacked for telling the truth as he sees it.
totally dude. totally, totally true dude
Telling the ‘truth as he sees it’… in other words, a con artist that cost American lives.
@@lisaratley4858 specifically in what way is he a "con artist", and how has he "cost American lives"?
@@lisaratley4858 Care to qualify that statement, or are just doing a cowardly hit and run?
@@lisaratley4858 you mean like CNN telling people not to take a life saving Nobel peace winning drug because it didn't fit the narrative?
This, boys and girls, is what a true conversation looks like. The ability to agree, disagree, learn, to think critically and freely, be honest and leave their ego's at the door, and also love. The world needs more people like you two gentlemen. Your journey to seek knowledge and unbiased scientific truth, regardless of topic, inspires us all.. Great job Lex. #FanForLife
#fanforlife here as well
its pure happiness to listen and learn. totally satisfying!

@@matrixresetinprogress We all have to use discernment and the 100% is NOWHERE, but there are bits & pieces of truth in alot & it's on us to be wary & research everything for ourselves.

@Kyle No, I’m not.
Another amazingly brilliant podcast. I could listen to 100 hours of this.
this is utterly right!
The level of intellectual prowess during this podcast is astounding. I learned about Antibody Dependent Enhancement, which even though I work in a medical field I have never heard before. Today I am in possession of knowledge I did not have yesterday. Brilliant
This episode was fantastic, just thought I'd leave a comment to help the algorithms. RUclips needs to stop censoring content they don't like.
Stop making it easier for them by saying that you’re commenting just to “help the algorithms.”
@@lessonsobserved 😅yes I'm sure the AI picks that up. It's hard to know but pretty certain.
@@lessonsobserved There isn't any evidence that inserting certain words or phrases into comments even does anything to the "algorithm" whatsoever. I have no idea why this idea is spreading, but it's everywhere now. And I laugh every time I see it. As a creator myself, with access to analytics - there isn't any data point for this. Engagement is a combination of search terms, views & number of comments period. It's just an umbers game. People are buying into a myth. lol.

@@pinnedziptrader6914 Good Lex. You’re extremely formidable.
I remember the first time I improvised a guitar solo that was truly " inspired". Inspired in the sense that it did not come from me but rather from somewhere else. I know what you're thinking because I used to feel the same way. This is what people refer to as anything from being in the zone, to feeling the holy spirit, to being possessed. All I know is that I was no longer "thinking" about what to play, which is what one does even while improvising. Typically while improvising you're playing things that you know will work in a given context, but I only thought about the first phrase and after that I just played what the song wanted me to. It's like I noticed it after it had already been going on for awhile. I didn't have to think about anything at all really, the music was playing me! That's really the best way I can describe it. Get some freinds together and jam out, just do it, there is nothing like that feeling. Probably the only thing that I would ever call spiritual to happen to me.
I like the idea of publishing my poetry for real instead of just clogging up my belongings w scraps of paper and notes and memes and sketches...it's a waste!!
Hands down, one of the best podcasts I have ever seen! Such delicate and thoughtfully pronounced open dialogue I have ever experienced; thank you to both of you!!!
Lex has emerged as one of the most sober, thoughtful, deep podcast interviewers of intellectuals, academics, and thinkers on the internet. I'm so glad he pursued this avenue and continues to do so. Much love, Lex.
I agree and add that Lex Fridman’s podcast is the only source that not only expertly guides delicate communication but also attracts the foremost intellects.
The opening dialog is all you need to hear in order to know the man Lex Fridman. He has emerged as a true leader in the search for a voice of reason and sanity the last couple of years
this comment is entirely spot on.
I watch the podcast by Lex in order to see the hedgehog
LEX IS A BORING SPEAKER !! TRUTH !
I've felt pretty alone, and as if I was/am losing my mind watching the off-the-charts insanity playing out around me. This conversation gives me real hope. Thanks for sticking your necks out.
Same, you're not alone.
Totally understand. I’m so challenged by this low culture time and luckily have found some projects that are open to a new system.
Life doesn't seem real
many feel/felt like you. never loose TRUE SELF no matter what circulates..
I truly believe that we are in a transitional period at this time specifically in regards to media, which is pretty obvious to most, but by extension culture. There is way more out there than ever has been before, as a result culture is more fractured than ever before as everyone sort of retreats into their own bubble of media of preference. All in all I truly believe it's a good thing but it's a bumpy road, to be sure.
I learn so much listening on my tow motor at work, thanks so much Lex and Bret! You inspire positive change in me and my approach to life!
Lex has inspired me to be a better listener.The quality of his questions are evidence of the quality of his ability to patiently allow the speaker to present the material.
20 mins in and this is quickly becoming one of my favorite Lex podcasts.
Yes.
Agreed! This or Michael Malice 😂
same 25 minutes, for me
@@bidhrohi12 what an arrogant claim. Reasonable people can disagree on many issues, and yet here you are handing down your judgement of someone based on 1 bloody sentence they said.
Go take your inflated intellectual ego back to your supposed heap of "critical thinking skills" and beat off to Waking Up with Sam Harris.
Rebel Poet 71 so what do you think the pharmaceutical company’s would do if they had the chance to make billions off drugs that skip years of expensive testing and push for all humans to get it? I see you distrust RUclipsrs out to make a few bucks, you really think corporations are putting human safety over money??? Because that’s your argument. We have the opiate epidemic as a real good example of corruption and corporate profits over human safety. They said it wasn’t addictive. Literally one of the most addictive substances around and you trust these people. Cool.
I remember when you conceptualized the idea of maybe making a podcast on the JRE. Glad you've come so far and have become a monolith of intellectual freedom and an asset to the progression of the human condition.
its been done, episode #1671 ( open.spotify.com/show/4rOoJ6Egrf8K2IrywzwOMk ) . But the clip with him with Dr. Kory never been uploaded to PowerfulJRE. Typical Joe Rogan selling out after he got spotify deal
Brett danced around the answer to meaning of life question very well, but I think he needed to be clear about one piece. Be present. Life is about being present in every moment. Every moment of life is a gift to be cherished. That is the meaning of life to me.
Ironically this is one of the few “safe spaces” on the internet.

Lex, Thank you for having Bret on your podcast.
Yes, thank you.
The human race has the right to demand their govs protect their rights from corporate infringements upon the public.
Edit: Just after 2 years so much information has been released! This topic should be revisited and discussed as to how high of an impact this issue had globally. So much of what Brett has mentioned has been revealed up to this day.
Enjoyed this and the Dark horse podcast! Thanks for enlightening all of us about this topic and Brett discussing covid 19 and vaccines during the pandemic.
Your high standard of guests and conversations continues Lex, thanks for supporting Bret's very important take(s) on current events (and his new book).

Bad ideas being uncensored is important not because "there's a tiny chance they might be right" but because they help people learn to identify/ critique bad ideas, an important tool.
@@rick15666 Well, maybe if YT didn't get rid of reply videos and start considering criticism to be harassment and breaking TOS, the community could police itself and the truth would rise to the top organically. You know, like YT was 10 years ago before they deliberately destroyed all that.
It used to be 10 years ago I could come on here and see 30 different cellphone camera angles all proving that the legacy media was blatantly lying about a story, or deliberately ignoring really important events, but that was really bad for the manufacturers of consent that demand total control of public thought perception and discourse. And here we are.
@@rick15666 from my limited knowledge, there is competition with RUclips. Especially now with them micromanaging everything. Bret has informed his listeners to find him on Odysee. It is an infant app, but I just started trying it out. Seems similar to RUclips in format so far as a Luddite like me can tell.
@@vanivari359 If people like that are indeed that stupid, don't you want them to die of their own stupidity so they don't end up reproducing? That seems to be your position.
everyone's acting like the US govt locked this guy up. youtube is a company making strategic decisions in a capitalist economy
@@lukewormholes5388 Yeah, because biased algorithms are so very strategic.
This podcast and numerous others like it (not to mention the open-minded types of opinions and points of view espoused here) are extremely popular. If the censorship had ANYTHING AT ALL to do with business strategy, then *this* is not what they'd be censoring. But I guess I'm speaking from and idealized "in a perfect world" position. The censorship being employed is cynical, anti-human, nonsensical, and in some cases just damm evil.
the last couple days i have been watching multiple podcasts from you Lex, and i love the podcasts by a great deal. Intresting topics open honest and deep + trying to move into ideas or discussions no one went before! hope you have many to make my friend
Lex, English is my second language as well and I also have problems with judging myself in my own head for things that I say. So I rather not talk and just listen. You are doing so well in this after hundreds of these interviews and conversations. You are talking and expressing yourself a lot more now, rather than just asking questions. You are doing great. I hope I can be more like you. Having the courage to be better everyday really inspire me. We love you Lex.
so lovely. I'm so profoundly thankful for sharing time ♡jenn
It’s so important for all of us to be able to hear multiple perspectives on things. Even if we don’t agree with each other or if we are even offended by certain things. Offense does not equal harm. Haem is when we do not get to experience all points of view and make Informed choices. It’s so sad what is happening in our world today.
It is good to be informed of Weinstein being another grifter with a patreon. What does he even really care about?
@@PrestoJacobson
What makes you say he's a grifter?
Christ is the real deal.
@John Doe believe it or not, when I borrowed my dad's old Playboy and Penthouse magazines, I used to find the most fascinating articles on the Vietnam War, on the Drug War, and interviews with fascinating public figures. I was such a nerd teenager.
I read interviews with far right leaders in Central America like the President of El Salvador, and I think an interview with Fidel Castro, and recently found William Shockley on race genetics & intelligence, and an interview with Saul Alinsky on being a non-Communist and defender of American patriotism against neo-Marxist activists, while helping people organize for labor rights and equality.
So yeah, you interview with Abu Bakr would fly. I would trust him more to be a dogmatic Islamist over the apologists who claim Islam is a religion of peace. I'm quite sure Abu bakr would not have said that.
@John Doe Ideas dont kill people. People kill people.
Listening to this episode is exactly how I want to spend my Friday evening.
Love. Man love.
Being a nerd is great isn't it?
Ahhhhhh such a stress relief.
same!!
Shabbat Shalom
Rewatching this. It's amazing how knowing Bret better in the long term makes this interview more potent. Thank you Lex. Keep bringing it. Cheers!
Same here! I have the same reaction to this older podcast. (Ha! Older...when older is 6 months.)
Love you Bret …. But when Lex asked you to define the meaning of life, I was a little disappointed. It certainly isn’t meaningless, although I understand your perspective. The definition is this:
The meaning of life…
Is… To give your life “meaning”
When you use your gifts to be a positive force in the world and find your higher purpose… Like YOU are,
you have cracked the code, my brother…spread the Awesome
Love you guys!!!
Touche 👌..agreed
Awesome guest. Bret is such an important voice right now.
@@inpugnaveritaas LOL "roundly ignored" Your a subscriber to his channel
@@inpugnaveritaas lol the irony of _you_ calling someone else an insignificant clown.
Why is Bret such an important voice? And to whom is he important? Genuine question I hope you don’t take it as sarcastic
@@younameit1407 find his recent 2 podcast that were deleted from RUclips and listen to them. People are being censored for speaking about vaccine adverse reactions and suppressed covid treatments.
@@joelexline9 interesting. I currently have 2 class action lawsuits pending against 2 separate companies for termination of my employment due to my refusal to get the vaccination.
I always appreciate Bret’s courage of having difficult but important conversations since Evergreen. Thanks, Lex, for standing for a good cause.
This connection between you two was an amazing watch,Thanks for your amazng ability to tell the truth.
Geeze, I LOVE listening !!! You, Lex, do this job EXTREMELY well ! Thanks. This talk with Bret was most interesting..
One of the rare videos I wish I could like multiple times. A joy to listen to such thoughtful and nuanced honesty these days.
Make more youtube accounts to give more likes! Problem solved 🤓
Dr Weinstein - Evergreen's loss is our gain! So great that the crime of how you were treated ended up putting you in a place where so many of us can learn from you. Thanks for the interview Lex.
I couldn't agree more. I've mentioned it before with respect to Bret and Heather and Evergreen: "As for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, to bring it about that many people should be kept alive, as they are today." Genesis chapter 50, verse 20 (from the Joseph narrative). It rings more and more true to me the more time passes.
What happened at Evergreen was a disastrous collapse due to rot. This rot was caused by etiquette trumping truth. This decay is widespread in our academic institution. It may cost Evergreen its existence and have already devalued their diplomas.
@人是 The may goes with there existence the have goes with devalued. They were never harvard, but were accredited.
“For the sake of posterity, I want to point out that Evergreen State College continues to fail three years after the campus takeover that became national news. Evergreen graduate Benjamin Boyce highlighted the latest enrollment numbers on Twitter:”
Down from about 5000 to 2000. Way to go Evergreen & thank you. Eric & Heather have never had such a large platform for sharing great information!
Thanks to both of you for this great conversation!
This also applies to cue sports. Most of my best sessions were when I wasn't consciencely engaged in any mechanical part of my game and just focused on seeing the completed shot.
Just when I thought you did the best interview ever, you release this interview with Bret. The last 5 minutes of this podcast is the thesis and it’s beautiful. Thank you for what you are sharing.
What a great conversation. I enjoy listening to these long-format podcasts multiple times as I always take away something new each time I listen. Beneficial hyper-focus.
This was excellent. Really enjoying such diverse conversations and questioning everything.
I just had a chance to watch your interview with Brett Weinstein. I appreciate your balance approach to the questions and Brett’s used your questions as teaching moments. This is the best interview I’ve seen that gives open minded people information without a skew. It’s a fine line to walk and you do it beautifully.
Im an old broad so take this seriously. I speak the truth I’ve learned as an empathetic 70 years on this earth. I think you have what we call in the South you have an old wise soul. You seem older than you are and I feel younger each day. This all has me reliving my old hippie days of protests and sit-Ins about our military losing at one time 100k brave soldiers that were my friends that were drafted without choice to join military. Vietnam was a war that we felt was for nothing good but for invasion of another country for assets. I’ve never trusted the government since. Perspective is very important. That’s why I’m sharing my story with you. I’ve never forgotten how manipulated we felt as they portrayed us as kids who used drugs. That was farther from the truth! Besides even if we were smoking marijuana from Mexico (that’s a big hint on the government too) we would just eat and sleep. While alcohol was killing people. Tell me what’s up with that?
Sorry for long rant but I love your work and thought I’d take the time to give you another perspective from your grandmother you don’t know❤️🙏🌈
Bret and his brother Eric have been two of my all time favorite guests on the podcast. Would love to see Eric back on sometime soon to further discuss his theory of Geometric Unity!
Eric decided to step out of the spotlight about a year ago, which saddened me greatly. I'm so appreciative of the episodes he's done with Lex, always interesting. Bret is fantasic too
TIL they are Brothers. Thank you.
@@HallsteinI Eric is on Brian Keating 's podcast quite often, if you haven't seen them
Sigh. It’s so sad how there have been numerous legitimate physicists on this show and people who don’t understand any better eat up the shitty physics ideas that don’t work. I can tell you as someone who has spent years around high-energy physics that his theory is roundly rejected by almost everyone for highly technical reasons. I understand that the average person who hasn’t studied physics doesn’t know any better. But believe me, it’s an incredibly poorly-defined theory that makes almost no testable predictions. There are better ideas on which one can spend time thinking.
@@CanWeGetDeep I'll try to explain why it's not even worth reading. There are entire conferences on quantum gravity, with papers being published every month. Real practicing theoretical physicists at top physics departments are the people who work on this. Look up people like Ed Witten, Nima Arkani-Hamed, Gerard t'Hooft. These are the people who are worth listening to. They work on quantum gravity daily. Eric is not a practicing physicist. It is impossible to keep up with the massive volume of technical developments that have occurred in a field if you have left it for over 20 years. It is simply not possible. His paper on geometric unity has no reference whatsoever to numerous developments in recent years. How do you link it to the standard model? How does it make testable predictions? If you can't provide adequate answers to these and numerous other developments which have occurred in the last 20 years, then it's not worth anybody's time. It either makes testable predictions or it doesn't. His theory does not. It's that simple. Crazy ideas are a dime a dozen in theoretical physics and almost all of them are wrong. It is incredibly hard to come up with a great new idea in physics and if you haven't been following hte field for 20+ years, it is almost guaranteed your ideas are incorrect, because how could you possibly explain the most recent developments that actual physicists who work daily on a given topic have developed? It's beyond the capability of any one human being. Just read this www.vice.com/en/article/z3xbz4/eric-weinstein-says-he-solved-the-universes-mysteries-scientists-disagree
The problem isn't a lack of restraint, the problem is corruption, we have far too many people ignorant of what they are involved in, making operational decisions with a profit motive & we never hold these people accountable.
Exactly. And to add; dark evil hearts being the engines of that corruption which feeds on its own 'success'. It's like a runaway train, but will soon hit the wall.
Accountability and authority go hand in hand. And this is a major issue in today’s society. Everyone wants more authority but no one wants to be accountable !!
That's what our judiciary is supposed to be for.
Greed is the root of all our woes. That and lack of spiritual IQ.
exactly
MY god, what a perfect opening statement. You are EXACTLY right, you said everything I want to say about this.
What an incredible conversation between two intellectual heavyweights. Great stuff.
Thanks for having Bret on the show, Lex! I'm really enjoying the way he is raising the level of discourse, and getting great minds like yourself in on conversation!
close enough :)
Really enjoyed this calm, intelligent exchange… appreciate you Lex!
What an amazing grasp on reality and the ability to concentrate the message without noise… brilliant.
I am deeply grateful for the courage and perseverance of Bret Weinstein. He was born for this day and time. Big Respect.
I read people pretty well. Bret’s genuine, the real deal.🙏🏼😊💪🏼
I can't believe that THAT college would let such gems go. Don't even recall the campus name...oh yeah, Low IQ Evergreen
suckers
@@Tnorm72 he might be genuine, but he doesn’t know what he’s talking about with COVID.
Evasion of privacy
Two brilliant minds and wonderful human beings. I love you, Bret and Heather your beautiful wife. Lex you are one of the best in very good company. God bless you both.
3:11:25
This part made me sad. We don't "know" there is no meaning to life. We know that the material realm will eventually end, but Bret's response discounts the consciousness, supernatural considerations, and otherwise misunderstood factors. We don't know these things like we know 2+2=4.
Otherwise loved this chat, very informative :)
Lex, thank you for the opportunity to listen to such intelligent and interesting people.
No matter how cynical a mood I might be in, listening to Bret retell his story about telomeres in the lab rats always breaks my heart. I can only hope in the future, as far-off as it might be, that he receives due recognition among the wider scientific community.
Do you know a podcast where he tells that story? I would be interested to see it.
No chance. He constantly butts heads with the establishment. He will not be rewarded or recognized by the establishment. But he will be loved by the people.
Amazing interview. Bret is a prescient, courageous force of nature!
I'm 15 minutes in and already thoroughly animated. Love you Brian and your podcast!
In Australia, vaccines were mandated for construction workers. Having a big mortgage, the choice I had was to take vaccine and keep everything I’ve worked my life for, or stand by my morales, and loose it all. I sold my soul, had to tick a box on the form to consent it as well.
Mandatory consent.
I’ll never forgive our govt for that.
Such an excellent, amazing discussion! Thank you!
Could listen to both of these gentlemen wax poetically for hours
Their brains process several times the amount of information by the time I can finish formulating a single thought. It's incredible.
Both voices work in tandem and tune in a very pleasant way.
I think I’ve heard them both speak more than most of my family at this point.
Me too
Remington hook it up with a box of anabars? Please boss
One of the best interviews I’ve seen… on the most important topic too💪🏽. Keep it up Lex 🔥🔥🔥
Lex has really helped to dispel some of my skepticism towards the scientific community - this video has solidified my respect for Lex- his ability to see clearly the dangers of censorship and use his voice and platform to add to the discourse by having these open conversations at such a critical time. Well done, Lex :)
I’d like to point out they left an option, the act of many partners up to an age and then choosing to be alone. The evolution of having a good time when young while building up a portfolio of drama filled situations and that culmination which when faced with the option of a trip around the moon or sun with a beautiful 20 something isn’t as appealing as waking up alone. Still, so hard not to even look sometimes that you would think the decision,when it comes, would be difficult. 99.9% of the time it comes easy.
“Borland C++ compiler”. Damn, Lex looks super young and healthy for a guy in his 60’s.

@@sa-amirel-hayeed699 Good thing I didn’t even try then. The fact that it’s from Bolivar, New York is quite funny to me though.
Lex is 33, he is not in his 60’s
Bret Weinstein has to be one of my favorite people. For him I’m sad he’s aging at all. He is someone who I could trust without reservation it seems AND he’s a genius. Truly a treasure in this world.
^ This is a fake Lex
I totally agree. Luckily he’s only in his early 50’s and will hopefully be gracing us with his wisdom for many years to come 🙏
You shouldn't trust anyone without reservation.
For sure he’s as sharp as anyone in the public square.
@@devinwright7828 “it seems”
What an amazing conversation. Gratitude for all involved.
It would be interesting to have you two meet again and discuss the vaccine one year later.
I really like this podcast. So much insight conveyed in such a delightful way.
Barely second to the development of vaccines, the lack of curiosity about the origin of the virus on the part of the media, the CDC, the WHO, and every talking head "concerned" scientist on TV, for such an extentend period of time, has been the most concerning thing to me.
Well, the mainstream media has been given it's marching orders by it's leaders to not cover that story. Alternative media has asked the questions that traditional media should have been asking. There are very few investigative journalists that have covered these stories.
That and the fact Alex Jones is banned and was right 10 years ago with a report on project lockstep, lockstep was a conference where they discussed and wrote white papers on a future scenario where a virus would be released on the world population and how they would convince the world governments to lock down their economies through the manipulation of the world's media some of the people that attended Bill gates father and the American doctor Dr fuchie , go look it up if you don't believe me

Lex is great as always… I’m still on the fence about Bret… he triggers a warning signal in my brain for some reason… very well spoken though
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR GIVING BRET A PLATFORM to simply discuss his thoughts!
Lex, Bret, this is one of the best podcasts I've listen to in a long time. Hope you'll do it again some time!
this is unequivocally correct dude
Thank you so much for this video! This was one of your best shows I've seen so far! Thank you for letting Bret sharing his thoughts. We desperately need more these kind of honest and open conversations.
The intellect in Bret's dialog is staggering.
Lex, thanks for the time stamps!
Words cannot describe how grateful I am for this conversation existing ❤️
This was one of the most educational and invigorating discussions I have heard in a long time. Ty please don’t stop!!!
Jason, could you recommend one that you prefer? I m not trying to dispute the opinion you expressed, I’m honestly asking for a suggestion for another good education podcast to listen to.
Thank you Bret for summing in up at the top of the first hour with two words. Cryptic totalitarianism.
How about them finally coming clean on the lab leak... bout damn time.
Having Bret on the Lex show has me unnaturally elongated like telomeres on lab mice.
Amazing comment 😂😂 The Portal EP #19 was one of my favorite podcasts ever.
Underated comment
🤭
I’m literally 3mm inches taller now.
Two of my favorite people, together on one stage.
Thanks for identifying that children are being vaccinated, and those that have had the virus and do not need it are given it. Shows a different agenda than eradicating the virus. Profit?
1:38:52 I really like Lex's response to Bret's question
1 year ago would be the date of 2022. This is now 2/26/22 Millions have died... and continuing to die. This is especially true among the young healthy males. People die in their sleep, and have heart attacks while playing sports, flying airplaines. Vares isn't much help at all now and neither is the CDC or WHO. Insurance companies, and morticians have their statistics and observations. But, not much information comes out.
Love this man. He did Rogan a few days back; great interview. In these dizzying times he speaks truth to lies. A man of integrity...
I agree!
What has he spoken the truth about? What lies?

@@user-jh3rx3ej7h suppression of ivermectin and the origins of covid
@@timeabiro3878 Ivermectin doesn't work. It's been refuted in numerous studies at this point. The problem is that people on this channel want to believe alternative theories because so-and-so said it was true, when the entire medical community is overwhelmingly saying the opposite. Bret Weinstein is not a virology expert. He has a background in evolutionary biology. There is absolutely no reason to take his opinion more seriously than the experts who have actually authored and studied the effects of ivermectin for a living, who resoundingly say it is not effective against Covid.
