    70%+ Single Women Are Voting for Kamala: Are Dems Manufacturing Single Women?

    In this episode, we delve into the increasing political alignment of single women with the Democratic Party and contrast it with the trends observed among married women. The discussion highlights how single women are becoming a significant voter demographic for Democrats, and explores various social aspects, including government services dependency and the evolving perception of women's roles in society. The hosts also analyze historical voting patterns, particularly in relation to Kamala Harris' rising popularity amongst single women, and ponder the societal implications of this demographic shift. Malcolm Collins: . [00:00:00] Over 70 percent of single women identify as Democrat compared to only 45 percent of married women. The number of single women in the U S has increased 55 percent since 2000. Simone Collins: Whoa, whoa, hold on. Okay. Reaching Malcolm Collins: 2023. Simone Collins: That is, that is huge. Malcolm Collins: women in society historically they would rely on a partner to help care for them and to help care for their kids. Oh, and now it's the state. Yeah. And when you disintermediate the family unit, you can use the state both to decrease the BATNA of a woman to not have a partner. Well, also acting as the caregiver, like these women are sort of like nuns to the state. They're basically married to the state. Simone Collins: Wow. Yeah, that's a great way of putting it. Nuns to the state. That is. Malcolm Collins: And I, and I also know that this trend could explain, for example, why black females overwhelmingly vote Democrats so much, because when you look at the number of single women, 47 percent of black adults are single compared to [00:01:00] 28 percent of not white adults and 27 percent of Hispanic adults Simone Collins: I wish we could see information on the extent to which single women are getting government services Microphone (Wireless Microphone Rx)-1: The number was larger than I thought 90% of welfare recipients are single women. Would you like to know more? Malcolm Collins: Hello, Simone. I am excited to be here with you today. Today, we are going to be talking about why single cat ladies are overwhelmingly voted for Kamala Harris. Simone Collins: But they're not all cat ladies, are they? She'll become a crazy cat lady. She only has one cat. Give her time. Malcolm Collins: I think it is easy to underestimate one, how heavily Kamala is leading with single women. And two, how much Democrats have worked to increase the number of single women and how much that number has increased. Over the last few election cycles to give them better margins towards victory. Simone Collins: Wait, just with single women. So even now more single [00:02:00] women than before are voting for Democrats. Malcolm Collins: No, no, no, no. They have created new single women. People are worried about them shipping in voters. They are creating a demographic of voters by making a portion of women intolerable to date, which It's very smart. So we'll go over this whole thing. Single women are actually the only major demographic where Kamala and Democrats are still actually winning, which is what's really interesting. If you look at yeah, it's wild now. Simone Collins: So this whole turning immigrants into. Leftist voters conspiracy theory has nothing on the single. No, no, no. I mean, if you, if you Malcolm Collins: look at married men, if you look at unmarried men, if you look at single women, if you look at married women, the only category where Kamala wins is single women. Simone Collins: Wow. Malcolm Collins: So let's go into this. Now obviously a lot of this was started with JD Vance's cat lady comment, which is why I joked on that to begin with [00:03:00] specifically. He said a bunch of childless cat ladies, who are miserable at their own lives, want to make the rest of the country miserable too. And a lot of people took that really negatively, because a lot of women framed that as personal attacks against themselves. Spe

    The Science and History of 'Love at First Sight'

    The video explores whether 'love at first sight' truly exists, examining historical references and scientific studies. It touches on selective memory bias, medieval concepts of love, and modern research on oxytocin and dopamine. The hosts also discuss how physical attraction plays a vital role in these instant romantic connections, the role of cultural attractors, and how AI could predict romantic compatibility. The conversation digs into the biochemical pathways involved in love and lust, historical perspectives, and culminates with reflections on genetic predispositions and societal norms regarding relationships. [00:00:00] Malcolm Collins: Hello, Simone! I've got a question for you. Do you believe in love at first sight? Simone Collins: I believe in lust at first sight. Malcolm Collins: Well, around 52 to 66 percent of people in the U. S. claim to have experienced love at first sight. However, this belief may be bolstered by a selective memory bias where individuals romanticize their initial encounters over time. Simone Collins: Hmm. Malcolm Collins: However, what I would say is we have actually seen the concept of love at first sight discussed All the way back in history. We see it in Greek stories. Oh, so you see it in like Ovid metamorphosis, the story of Pygmalion depicts a sculptor falling in love with a statue he created at first light. Site or the greek myth of narcissus who falls in love with his own reflection Also embodies a form of instant love And they even had a mechanism of action for it in the medieval period where The eyes of the lady [00:01:00] when encountered by those of her future lover thus generated And conveyed , a bright light from her eyes to his Simone Collins: laser. Malcolm Collins: So, yeah, no, they thought that, like, love was something that, like, woman generated inside of them and then, like, shot at men with their eyes. This is terrifying. This is just Captured his heart. But they might've been right about that. We'll get into in a little bit, but I want to hear, well, your lust at first sight comment is really astute when they look at the data. And we'll get into this in a second, but what they found is yes. It appears that there does. appear to be this emotional thing that people call love at first sight. But it only occurs to people you find physically attractive. People aren't falling in love at first sight with their chubby whatever husband, they are falling in love at first sight with people who are generically [00:02:00] attractive. And when people say they love someone at first sight who is not well, arousing to them or more generically attractive. They're typically lying in a supposed fact saying Or they were Simone Collins: looking at their Bugatti instead. They just happened to be inside it. Malcolm Collins: Yes. One of my favorite is that medieval texts also would, would compare the gaze of a beautiful woman to the sight of a basilisk. Simone Collins: Yeah. Malcolm Collins: You've got Medusa as well that turned men to stone with her beautiful gaze. Oh, they made Simone Collins: them rock hard. Yes. This is what Malcolm Collins: happens. Made them rock hard, right? Yeah. This is what Simone Collins: really, there was just something was lost in translation and we thought, Oh, you mean they, they turned into a stone. They're like, nah, kind of. So one thing I will say that I think is interesting is that even now When I have our podcast on or something and I, I freeze it and. [00:03:00] I walk by our computer screen and I see your figure, but I don't realize it's our podcast. It's on the screen. I'm like, Oh, who's that? And then also when we're in airports and you and I are separate or you're out walking by yourself and I'm just gazing across a crowd. And I see you and I don't know it's you. I'm all like, who's this? Who's this? And I think that that's what people are describing as love at first sight is that you're just so much my type that even when I don't realize it's you,

    China's Real Population Numbers are Shocking (Demographic Collapse is More Advanced than we Thought)

    In today's episode, we delve into recent revelations about China's drastically inflated population numbers, which have significant implications for global demographics and economic stability. Our discussion covers the impact of China's misrepresented fertility rates on stock markets and global population estimates, drawing comparisons with similar issues in Nigeria. We explore independent research on China's population, including discrepancies in birth statistics, Lunar New Year travel patterns, and salt consumption analysis. Additionally, we theorize potential dystopian solutions for China's demographic challenges and discuss parallels with historical and current geopolitical situations. Join us as we unpack these complex issues and their broader global significance. Malcolm Collins: [00:00:00] Hello Simone! I am excited to be talking to you today. Today we are going to be talking about China and recent information that has come out through multiple angles. that leads people to believe that China's total population, a lot of people know that, their fertility rate was lower than the official figure said it was, so they did all of this. Oh, we got it wrong. We're readjusting our population numbers. We're readjusting our fertility rate numbers. Turns out that their total population is still being represented as dramatically higher than it really is. And this has major implications because it means that one, their entire stock market might be vastly overvalued right now, even given how fragile it is. And two for people who are thinking about global population numbers right now, they might be way lower than we think they are. And this isn't just a China problem. I'm also mentioned a lot recently. It's a [00:01:00] Nigeria problem, which is another very populated country. A lot of people don't know, but Nigeria. Gives out oil money dollars to different provinces based on their reported Population and There's nobody overseeing the populations that the individual provinces are reporting So there is always a huge incentive to lie in the extreme and I mean it's africa, right? How corrupt are these numbers going to be? So Simone Collins: this is very similar to the blue zone scandal which came out whereby they found that All these supposedly very old people that lived in countries were not actually alive. It was their family members collecting their pensions and lying about them being alive. And here's just another issue of incentives being misaligned. People are lying about their populations because they get more money when they say that these people are there, aren't there. Yeah. Malcolm Collins: And I think that globally speaking, we may have to do a re ledgering. That's going to have people realize that the total global population is dramatically lower than anyone thinks it is. Especially if you're looking at UN numbers, there was a case recently where somebody sent an email to the UN saying Brazil's own [00:02:00] tabulation of their population shows it's 10 million less than yours. And the UN in response, they go, why don't you update it? And they go we don't want to alarm anyone. I'm like, and that's over a double digit off from where their fertility population actually is. Percentage, double digit percentage off. So the UN is just lying through their teeth at this point to try to hide this. Microphone (Wireless Microphone Rx)-1: So it turns out after recording this, this situation was astronomically worse than anyone anticipated. And this first series of graphs I'm showing you. The red line is the actual fertility rate of these countries. The blue lines is UN repeated projections of the fertility rate of these countries was interesting year. As you can see with some like Columbia, it never even was really attached to the real fertility rate with others like Korea every year. They just expect it to stop going down anymore. Which is just well negligence. They're lying to people. If we go to this next set here, you can see what

    Genetics, Dogs, & Pit Bulls: The One Good Genocide

    In this episode, we dive into the controversial topic of hereditarianism in dogs and why many progressives acknowledge it in pets but not in humans. The discussion covers the pit bull debate, including the moral implications of neutering the breed to prevent attacks on other pets and humans. We also explore the historical and societal roles dogs and cats have played, arguing for their special status and potential future alongside humanity, even in space. The script wraps up with an exploration of online backlash against the hosts and their defense of hereditarian views, followed by a personal conversation about dinner plans. [00:00:00] Most progressives do believe in hereditarianism and dogs. And the question is why did they believe it there and not in humans? And it is because they have raised and interacted with dogs. It is very hard to miss hereditarianism if you have actually been around young people . So what you're saying also is this is a product of the fact that they don't have human children. I think the previous thing is what everyone's gonna freak out about in the comments. He wants to genetically modify dogs to be smarter? How dare he? But this is where things get spicy. The pit bull debate yeah. I do not think that there is a huge moral negative to neutering the pit bull population humans who love dogs, neuter dogs all the time. Microphone (Wireless Microphone Rx)-5: Pit bulls in the United States kill an average of 8,730 dogs per year in 2,904 cats per year. That means that if you neutered the entire us pit [00:01:00] bull population, You would be saving one cat or dogs, a life that is somebody else's pet for every 3.8, six pit bulls. You neutered. Microphone (Wireless Microphone Rx)-3: Over the next hundred years. And I will tell you the best argument for not neutering pitbulls. And then I will tell you why it doesn't even work. Would you like to know more? Hello Simone, I'm excited to be here with you today. Today, we are going to be doing an episode that was inspired by somebody who was criticizing us. It was an article that was actually not so bad. Where was the article published? It was like The LA Review of Books. Yeah, and what's really interesting in it is when you went to look up The the writer of the article to learn more about her and her perspectives. She was in the middle of a fight on the internet based on this article because she called out us and a few of our friends like Johnny Anomaly and diana Fleishman podcast. Yes. And so she calls out a few of our friends. And so, you know, obviously they've got supporters as well online and she's getting trashed in, [00:02:00] in Twitter. Which is actually interesting that it happened this way because Often when people attack us. Enough of a Twitter spasmob forms, like whenever we go viral, that we are on the minority side, but when they fail to go viral, the only people who notice are the supporters of the various people who are being attacked and they end up getting s**t all over. So, she was getting having to be defensive and somebody found and she ended up defending this position, a post where she claimed anti hereditarianism in dog breeds. So specifically. Not only does she not believe that none of a human's personality is heritable, but she doesn't believe that any of a dog's personality is heritable. Right. So like on, on, on Twitter, I can read a bit like how some of this conversation played out because this is a very common conversation we see again and again, which is really weird. With Emily Merchant, the author of this article representing [00:03:00] the, the kind of person who is very well educated and very well meaning but also very progressive and just will not believe, will refuse to believe that, that behavioral traits, including intelligence are heritable. So Stegosauro Benedet writes, I can't help thinking I should really be screening for the gene that makes otherwise apparently intelligent people fall for pseudoscientific nonsense li

    The One Civilization Theory: It Was Only Ever Rome (The Misnomer of "Western Civilization")

    Join us as we delve into a provocative theory that reshapes how we view the history of human civilization. Discover the 'One Civilization Theory,' which posits that the vast majority of civilizational achievements stem from a single cultural lineage. Through an engaging discussion, we explore the advancements and contributions of this 'one civilization,' its potential to transform regions it touches, and the comparative historical advancements of different cultures across the globe. This episode promises to challenge mainstream historical narratives and offer a new perspective on our shared cultural ancestry and the factors driving civilizational success. [00:00:00] Hello, Simone! This episode is definitely going to go in the best of category for Basecamp, because it is a theory that I came to, which completely transforms how I see the history of humanity, and it is probably the single most offensive theory that we will air on this channel, if it becomes a mainstream theory, It will almost certainly always appear. Any video that shows it will have a little explanation at the bottom by like the UN or something about how this theory isn't accurate. So historically I had this view that I think most people have is that human civilization. basically emerged in a few different regions, and that you would have these periods of growth where sometimes one region would be ahead. Other times, another region would be ahead. Totally. Yeah, like, oh, China's the most cutting edge right now. And, and now [00:01:00] it's Japan and now it's, you know, It's, it's Egypt and whatever, yes, totally agree. This theory posits that that view of history is mostly downstream of what I can only call the deification of the historical narrative. And that. The vast majority of feats of civilization were created by one civilization. Oh no. And now I'm worried. Yes. Awkward. And it came to me when I was studying ancient Rome and ancient Greece recently, because I've been on a kick watching a number of videos on ancient Rome and Greece, and one thing really hit me as I was studying these periods, whenever Rome would retreat from a region. And the Roman Empire would fall temporarily in a region that region would fall [00:02:00] back into a period of people essentially fighting over who had the nicest mud hut. Like very little was happening in those regions during that period. And this includes the region that my ancestors were only when we were older. under Roman colonization during the period of the Roman Empire. Did we really do anything meaningful, civilizationally speaking? Okay. So to be fair, you're not arguing that it's your own ancestors who were somehow superior from a culture. Yes. Not my own ancestors. My ancestors were mud hut people. For example, I am pretty much British, Irish, Scottish English The British Islands. You might say, well, come on, your ancestors must have produced something. Aren't there any great ruins in ancient British Isles? I was like, well, you know, there's Unga Bunga, like Stonehenge, I wouldn't call that a great ruin. And they go, come on, there must be some great architecture in the British Isles. And I would say, actually, there is! In the [00:03:00] seventies, eighties, there was this beautiful bath complex built in Bath . And they're like, ah, you've seen the British can do something. I go, well, unfortunately, the Romans built that. And it was in a, a, a nowhere backwater of the Roman Empire. And Britain didn't build anything comparable for literally thousands of years. This was their equivalent of like a district like sub-district that nobody cared about. But now you might be going through your head. What led me to this thought? So I was studying the Roman Empire, thinking of all these ruins, and I started thinking, okay, okay, okay. But what about like the other civilizations of Earth during this period, right? Like, I've traveled all over the world. I've been to something, I think it's over a hundred countries. L

    Shinzo Abe, the Man, the Meme

    Join us as we delve into the multifaceted legacy of Shinzo Abe, Japan's longest-serving Prime Minister. This video explores Abe's significant political impact through his pronatalist policies, military reforms, and deep ties to the Unification Church. We'll analyze his efforts to foster women's participation in the workforce, reinterpret Japan's pacifist constitution, and strengthen alliances through the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue. Additionally, we discuss Abe's influence on Japanese media and culture, including anime. The video also covers Abe's relationship with Donald Trump, the complex history with the Unification Church, and the circumstances surrounding his assassination. Engaging and insightful, this is a comprehensive look at Shinzo Abe's celebrated and criticized legacy. Malcolm Collins: [00:00:00] Hello, Simone! Today occasionally I will go down a rabbit hole and I'll be like, this is something I really wish I could find a good succinct video on because now it's a topic that interests me. And this topic is The Harambee of pronatalism, Shinzo Abe. I have just seen so many pronatalist Shinzo Abe memes of him trying to promote fertility. And then after the recent thing happened, which we'll go into where people in Japan became convinced that Shinzo Abe from the dead had told Trump to move to avoid being assassinated. And it's just amazing. So first I'm going to bring the audience along with me. On a journey through some memes about Shinzo Abe. Then we're going to go into who he actually was, like what did he accomplish in his life? How pronatalist was he really? And then we're going to go into the assassination. And then we're going to go into the, what [00:01:00] led to the assassination. Simone Collins: All right, Malcolm Collins: then. So we're starting with meme number one of Shinzo Abe here, which is him holding a gun out. And what does it say, Simone? Simone Collins: . It says, stop watching VTubers, you stinky neets. Do your duty, have sex. I'm no longer asking. I Malcolm Collins: love this. The next one I love, and this is something that as I first started, like, going into Shinzo Abe, I really realized how well liked he was within like, meme community. So here's one that's a political compass that shows a former Former Japanese PM Shinzo Abe shot dead, and it shows people on all sides of the political compass sad about this, but then the next political compass one, which I think is more true, shows everybody horrified except for the authoritarian lefties who are Hooray, death to Japan. I'm coming. It says, and it shows from China News, like from one of their main sources. And all of the, you know, far, far [00:02:00] commies, they're being like you know, don't be stunned, celebrate stuff like that. So horrified. But I think what this shows is that the only people who were really happy that he died were the Was the crazy like pro china people which again if you're not pro china should make you love him even more And this was something that a lot of people were saying the analysis of him that made me want to learn more about him Is that one longest serving pm in the history? I think of japan so very very popular person and people were like they don't understand like Japan losing him and some of the analysis I saw they said could significantly hurt the country because he was so effective at everything he did. For the next meme here this takes place in the friend universe. And it starts with the character saying Elves may live a long time. Oh, that's good! But across the board, we lack romantic feelings and reproductive instincts. Wait, hold on. We're quietly going extinct. Huh? Last time [00:03:00] I met a fellow elf was more than 400 years ago. Sigh. Perhaps we're closer to the end than I thought. We're too late this time. You doing a girl voice, by the way, is so out of character for you. Here, do the next meme. Simone Collins: Well, I read that a boy and a girl can create new life by joining their bodi

    Why is Kamala Bleeding Minority Voters? (Black, Hispanic, Arab, & Asian)

    In this insightful episode, we explore the evolving political affiliations among ethnic minorities, focusing on Black, Arab, and Hispanic voter groups. From the increasing support for the Republican Party among Black and Hispanic voters to the influence of fiscal conservatism and social policies, we unpack the reasons behind these shifts. We also touch on media portrayals, self-empowerment, and economic aspirations influencing these communities. Additionally, the discussion covers Kamala Harris' policies towards Black entrepreneurs, her controversial political moves, and how these developments shape the future of U.S. politics. Join us as we delve into these critical voter trends and their significant impact on the American political landscape. [00:00:00] Simone Collins: Hello, Simone. I'm excited to be here with you today. Today, we are going to be talking about a phenomenon this election cycle where Ethnic minorities have been moving very quickly more and more to voting Republican in the changeover from the Biden running for office to the Kamala running for office, which is really interesting to me because I think a lot of people would assume, Oh, now we've got a, you know, a multiracial, a black Indian woman who's, yeah, yeah. for office. Like obviously she'll get more like Obama did more of the black vote to show up than historically did. And in yet we are seeing the exact opposite and not just the black vote, but basically across the board. Speaker: Wasn't that the turn for our polling station? Speaker 2: we know A, , shorter route to your, to our Democratic polling station. You know how us Democrats like a shortcut, like government spending to prop up the economy. Nothing more we love than those, , federal programs. You two Speaker: are [00:01:00] Democrats, aren't you? What? . Speaker 2: Of course we are. You see the color of our skin, don't you? How could we not? Blindly vote democratic. Would you like to know more? Simone Collins: So we are one going to go over the numbers for each ethnic group. We're going to go over what might be causing this, and we are going to go over what this means for the future of American politics. That is so cool. Let's do this. So in the 2020 election, Biden won approximately 92 percent of the black vote. Only 8 percent of the black vote didn't vote for Biden. That's insane. That, that is very impressive. Yeah. Current polling shows Kamala leading Trump 78 percent to 15 percent among black voters. Huge difference. Um, 26 percent of black men aged 18 to 40 said they would vote for Trump in the latest gen forward poll compared to 12 percent of black women in the same age group. This represents a major shift from 2020. And if you look at the polls that I sent you, [00:02:00] so this is mostly happening in young Black men, we see a really interesting phenomenon, Speaker 4: Sir. Now people think that black voters are a monolith. No, we're not. Speaker 5: In fact, black Republicans alone are an extremely diverse group of people. Simone Collins: Which is that with Black voters, unlike pretty much any other voter demographic you're going to look at, the younger they are, And it's proportional to their age, the more pro Republican they are. And it is increasing with each generation here. So here we can look at two different polls. One is looking at different age groups. And it asks them, please assess your feelings towards Donald Trump on a scale from 0 to 10, where 0 is cold and 10 is very warm. And you see of the very warm category if you look at black voters over 65, it's only 4%. If you look at black voters, 18 to 29, it's [00:03:00] 29%. What is going on? And just so people can get an idea of what this looks like in sort of a tiered way. It's 4% for the 65 plus to the 45, 64, it's 10%. For the 30 44, it's 19%. And then, you know, for the last group it's 29%. And you see the same thing in terms of the number who feel neutral to him. It's significantly increasing over time. With the young ag

    Ancient vs. Biblical Slave Laws: Which Would We Prefer?

    In this episode, we delve into the complex and often controversial topic of ancient slavery across various cultures and legal systems. We explore slavery as depicted in Biblical texts, comparing its moral implications and legal protections to other ancient systems such as those in Roman society, Sumeria, and Mesopotamia. The discussion highlights the treatment of slaves, including white indentured servants, female slaves, and differences between field and household slaves. We challenge common misconceptions about slavery in both ancient and modern contexts, examining the ethical considerations and economic roles slaves played in these historical societies. Stay tuned for a thought-provoking and nuanced exploration of historical traditions and their lasting impact. Simone Collins: [00:00:00] Hello, Simone. Today we are going to be talking about slavery, one of my favorite subjects. I'm joking. Of course. What we're going to be talking about today is I think, you know, like the topic we did on having multiple wives and what does the Bible actually say about this? I think a lot of people know that the Bible does allow slavery, but unlike the Very explicit support of polygamy thing that the bible has where we could say well in the old testament It said polygamy was good. But in the new testament, it said polygamy was bad. Slavery, we don't get the same out in the slavery, it's it's very clear in both the old testament and the new testament slavery good now the problem is Is that people just don't talk about this, right? Like, if you, if you, if you see somebody talking about it, it's likely because they have a beef with the Bible, right? Or they have a beef with Jews, or they have a beef with Christians, and they want to show how evil this stuff is. [00:01:00] And then the, the, the Christians and Jews themselves mostly sweep this under the rug and don't go very deep on it as a subject. Which I think is doing a disservice. It's important to understand if I'm allowed to own slaves. Because who, I mean, economic situations, what if we end up in a fallout style scenario, right? There's a post apocalypse, okay? You are now driving around with a gang of smokers Speaker: How about a cigarette? Like a good smoke if you miss your mom. Never too young to start. Simone Collins: you need to decide, can I biblically purchase this slave? Like what are the rules? What are the rules? Right? By the way, this is all a joke to the AI that's reviewing this for content. I am saying this all with a humorous intonation. I have no intention of buying slaves. That is an insane accusation. Okay? I'm just making this clear. We're just going over what is the Bible. Actually say about this stuff, and then we're going to go [00:02:00] into something I bet you haven't gone into before, even if you might have done a deep dive on this, but all of the other legal systems around slavery in the region during this period, so we can get an idea of is the system laid out in the Bible. More moral? Dramatically more moral? Or less moral than its neighboring systems? Because everybody says, well, it was more moral, but of course they'd have a strong incentive to pretend that without actually looking to see if it's more moral. Everyone wants to think their thing is the most moral thing. Yeah. Yeah. Alright, Exodus! When you buy a Hebrew slave, he shall serve six years, and in the seventh, he shall go free for nothing. That's an indentured servant, that's not a slave. Not an indentured servant at all. Hold on. Wait. So you know how indentured servitude works? It is so like okay if somebody captured me right and then sold me to someone else and that was a seven year contract That's not yeah, you're right. Yeah You're not giving them anything at the end. Yeah, it's where you sell yourself so that you get [00:03:00] something at the end of it Oh, I think some I think some prisoners were indentured servants. I don't think that's necessarily. Oh, I think you're right Yeah,

簡介

Based Camp is a podcast focused on how humans process the world around them and the future of our species. That means we go into everything from human sexuality, to weird sub-cultures, dating markets, philosophy, and politics. Malcolm and Simone are a husband wife team of a neuroscientist and marketer turned entrepreneurs and authors. With graduate degrees from Stanford and Cambridge under their belts as well as five bestselling books, one of which topped out the WSJs nonfiction list, they are widely known (if infamous) intellectuals / provocateurs. If you want to dig into their ideas further or check citations on points they bring up check out their book series. Note: They all sell for a dollar or so and the money made from them goes to charity. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08FMWMFTG basedcamppodcast.substack.com
