E354. The Evolution of Tribalism: From Caves to Culture Wars - Andrew Heaton
Thursday, 4 September, 2025
Comedian Andrew Heaton returns to talk about his new book Tribalism Is Dumb: Where It Came from, How It Got So Bad, and What to Do about It. He and Bridget discuss the evolutionary and social roles that tribalism has played throughout human history and why it has become so toxic in the last 20 years. They cover Andrew’s favorite line to break the ice at parties, how our ability to work in groups is why we defeated the dolphins, why the decline of religion has been bad for tribalism, information overload, why Finns might be too unimaginative to be unhappy, drunk monkeys, and why comedy might be our best shot at dismantling toxic partisanship. They also talk stolen lemon trees, gnome parades, social trust, and the human urge to pick a fight.
