It's a 10!
Funny, interesting, provocative, engaging--what isn't great about this podcast?!. If Beat Your Genes were a person it would be the fanciest human at the bar. Get ready to have your mind figuratively blown by Dr. Lisle's brutally honest but reliably scientific explanation of the human experience. Whether its about dating, dieting, telling off your father in law, or moving up the ladder at work, Dr. Lisle has a strategy to help you get ahead. New listeners may find some of the advice seemingly antiquated, but they will soon come to realize that Dr. Lisle brings us back to the basics of behavior with genetic/evolutionary explanations. You'll learn more about your own behavior and the behavior of those around you, as well as how to respond to your environment in ways that make life generally more pleasant, or at least more logical. Its best to start from the beginning and listen to the episodes in order to give yourself an understanding of the theories discussed, but my personal favorite episodes include #6, #7, #9, #43, #58,#76, #122 and many others. Listeners may also enjoy the works of Geoffrey Miller, Steven Pinker, Robert Sapolsky, Jordan Peterson, and othersRead full review »

Fantastic podcast! The world makes so much sense through this lens. Both Doctors articulate and explain the concepts of evolutionary psychologically so well, and when you hear it you realise that you intuitively knew it all along. Doug and Jen are my intellectual crushes!! Get listening people!
