Part 1 of 2: 🔥 “The Savage Truth of Nature: Howard Bloom Destroys the Myth of Harmony”

.

What if nature isn’t nurturing — but ruthless — and the only way forward is to rebel against it?

.

Howard Bloom In a world obsessed with harmony, balance, and “returning to nature,” Howard Bloom asks a radically different question:

“If bacteria didn’t rebel against their environment... would you and I exist?”

This isn’t a TED Talk on eco-purity.
This is a reality-shattering conversation with the man Wired Magazine dubbed “The Next Stephen Hawking.”

Howard Bloom is a MacArthur Genius Award winner, founder of the Howard Bloom Institute, and author of The Case of the Sexual Cosmos: Everything You Know About Nature is Wrong.

He’s the intellectual heavyweight who’s advised NASA, explored chaos theory, and lived backstage with Michael Jackson, Prince, and Billy Joel — all while launching an unprecedented scientific rebellion against what we think “nature” really is.

đź’Ą Inside This Episode:

  • Why nature isn’t harmonious — it’s homicidal.

  • The true forces of evolution: not balance, but chaos and rebellion.

  • What Darwin, Freud, and Einstein all missed — and why it matters now.

  • The dark side of “eco-purity” and why it’s sabotaging human innovation.

  • Donald Trump, Xi Jinping, and Greta Thunberg: what they reveal about tribal psychology.

  • Why you're not just part of nature — you’re meant to transcend it.

  • The hidden sexual engine driving cosmic evolution — from bacteria to Bach.

  • Why cancel culture is a death trap for the human imagination.

“You’re not here to protect nature. You’re here to be its next evolutionary leap.”
