Here’s an episode that’s been micro-brewing for a while: Bro Science: where conspirituality meets the manosphere. We’ve even got a working definition! Here’s a taste.Bro Science is junk science spewed by men who believe their charisma is a substitute for training. It brags, mocks, overreaches. It’s self-serving and self-interested. It can carry hints of toxic masculinity: entitlement, unearned confidence, no qualms about taking up space, repressing emotion or hiding it behind humour or grandiosity. It preaches individualism and self-sufficiency from the lonely triumph of Bro.We’ll listen to some top “Bro scientists” to see how bro-ness reduces, minimizes, and mocks science. We’ll listen to pearls of bro-dom from JP Sears, Kyle Kingsbury, Aubrey Marcus, Sayer Ji, Toronto’s very own BBQAnon, Adam Skelly, and Zach Bush, doctor to the bros. Dear listeners: you might feel at the end of our tour like you need a coffee colon cleanse or testosterone nootropic. But we’ve got something better: an interview with Dr. Dan Wilson, who does the opposite of Bro Science. He’s a molecular biologist who by day works in the lab at Carnegie Mellon University, but by night crushes out Dr. Wilson Debunks the Funk videos, cutting conspiritualists down to size. 2:20 The Conspirituality Ticker18:02 Phase Angling39:10 The Purge54:59 You’re More Powerful Than the Universe1:13:02 The Jab1:15:02 Interview w/Dr. Dan Wilson2:15:57 Bro Science: A Manifesto in ProgressAll music by EarthRise SoundSystem (Duke Schommer + Derek Beres)Support Conspirituality on PatreonShow NotesThe Lonely Descent into QAnon, Pt 1Analysts create AI tool that can distinguish between conspiracy theories and real conspiraciesFormer Israeli space security chief says aliens exist, humanity not readyIn 2020, Disinformation Broke the USBBQAnon thinks he knows something about PCR testsPublic Health Ontario: false positivity rate is 0.01%,Sayer Ji geeks out with Michael SandlerSayer Ji’s GreenMedInfo cherry-picks a vaccine study reportHere’s the actual source that GMI distortedDr. Maria Sundaram Twitter thread on how to talk with vaccine-hesitant people.Covid-19, Remote Work Make Austin a Magnet for New JobsWhat is phase angle?Dr. Dan Wilson’s Debunk the Funk channel
