It’s called comedy, not a philosophy debate… it’s just Opie is just bad at comedy. Ant’s just trying to run with it for comedic affect. If you knew the show, you’d get it, cos you’d be into it.
Watched this thing about beavers, and apparently the reason they build dams is a weird kinda OCD thing. Theyre amphibious, but they don't move very well on either water or land (better in the water), so they evolved the wood chomping thing and eventually learned to build homes near the water so they could protect themselves. They cannot stand the sound of running water, as it could mean a leak in their home, so when they hear it, they are compelled to fix it. They keep building and building until eventually they've built a damn and stopped the flow of water entirely. Pretty cool
Yeah listening to them talk about animals and nature is a little cringy... Like many animals utilize each other and plants in medicinal ways so they do use medicine so to speak.
Yeah, I mean I think they lean into the dumb act a little because they realize they have more to offer trying to keep it light than they do talking completely seriously about it. There's no doubt Louis is pretty bright in the grand scheme of the comedy industry.
There were a number of species that were similar to us. They're extinct now, though. So, if you include our ancestral species and our extinct cousin species, we no longer look like such an oddity in the big picture of life on Earth.
Agreed. They're so convinced "No other species is even close" while Louis is suggesting they not view humans as the apex... annnnd then they just keep cutting him off. Anyone have the link to the lizard person bit, though? That one's hilarious.
Hey YOU reading this. Before you become too annoyed at their discussion about evolution & biology etc, don't forget this show is called POT Talk Mondays.
Every time I hear one of these interviews with Louis CK, I realize that he’s not only a very intelligent guy, his heart is in the right place, and he really tries to do the right thing, be a good parent, and a good steward of the environment. Yeah, he did have that one kink that got him into trouble. But overall, he seems like a pretty good guy. And he’s an incredibly funny, standup comic. His bit about being overdrawn at his bank is still funny, still relevant, and very relatable.
Louis is right. I read a hard science fiction (sci-fi that tries to be as accurate as possible) anthology by a guy named Poul Anderson and one of the short stories was about how humans went extinct and then octopi took over.
K. Lessar i think OP is talking about animals that do “human-like” things as the show briefly talked about at 7:40. you gotta get Trump outta your head lol.
Yeah but they've been building the same thing for thousands of years and they just do it by instinct. They're not actively thinking on how to improve technologically like humans do.
I remember not really liking Louie before I ever really heard him, which was fair. Now that I have heard a lot of his stuff, I just absolutely love the guy!
As a kid I was wondering about evolution. If all people start jumping of the roof of their house - would any possible survivor start the process of developing wings then?
Lots of animals eat specific plants for their medicinal components, natives called it bear medicine for a reason, we actually learned a lot about our original medicinal plant knowledge by watching other animals consume them
Listening to a bunch of guys pontificate about what humans came from when they have almost no knowledge of ecology, biology, or evolution. Love these guys usually but holy shit this was excruciating to listen to.
do these guys realize Louis CK is the world famous guest? I mean why do they constantly talk over him and interrupt him like this? Go listen to Howard Stern and see how a professional interviews somebody.
I recently had a buddy making the same sort of argument against evolution. Something to the effect, " if evolution exists, then how come all the other animals can't talk and ride in cars etc?". That was his whole argument. I gave it a few minutes like Louie did, but eventually I just had to drop it.
the aquatic ape theory does not suggest that humans and dolphins diverged from apes, that is nonsense. Dolphins and hippos diverged from the same creature. The aquatic ape theory suggests a kind of aquatic ape, like a mermaid, not a dolphin

Anything close enough to be considered #2 to human I’m sure was murdered to extinction by humans. We’re not dumb enough to take the chance of being number 2. That’s why we’re here now 😂
Read it and weep. “Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” Gen1:26
Genesis 1:26 God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
our ideas on evolution and thought are backwards . Animals don't evolve traits to be successful in an environment or to adapt to an environment . They adapt accidentally evolved traits into their behaviour and success or failure of that adapting by the animal to its physical traits and its environment determine whether the genetic trait persists and perpetuates into a new offshoot of the species . Go look up The True Story of Evolution by kevin taylor here on youtube , then when you've done that , read the life and habit verus the accidental evolution of an internal and external ecosystem powerpoints on the same channel to determine the thinking and behavioural processes involved . You'll be glad you did . I promise you , 20-30 minutes reading those , you'll gain a new understanding of what you are and how you came to be what you are .
As an addendum to Kev here, may I suggest an excellent place for a first look-see is _"Grooming, gossip and the evolution of language"_ by Robin Dunbar : Which besides the slightly dry title is a real enjoyably fascinating deep-time world spanning read! I _always_ enjoy a work where you can just _feel_ the passion of the author for his subject! :)
This was about as difficult to listen to as listening to 5th graders discuss the intricacies of quantum field theory! Ironically, the very examples that 1 dude used to posit that humans are divinely designed, was theorized, and experimentally proven by people who would have been able to put them straight about the origins of humans!
There are probably a lot of reasons I could decide to be offended, but I'm more interested in the point they kept bringing up which is "humans made medicine, no other animal can heal itself", that's some flawed thinking lol. Tigers have antibodies in their spit that helps speed the healing process, so they lick each other when they have boo boos. There are so many species who actually use nature as medicine, there are millions of holistic plants that animals eat/use/gather/etc. Humans didn't invent medicine, we just made it really complicated. I don't think it's something to be proud of that we founded big pharma as a species. If big pharma didn't exist we'd still be fine as a species, just like the rest of the creatures on Earth. I love Louis.
Lauren Cole alot of animals have Antibiotics and antibodies and other things In their bodies and help themselves naturally. if they all got infected and died from every little wound they'd be.. gone, mostly lol
Not i think that who ever create us took a piece of every animal and mixed it up!. Think about it we are the last spices and also we can do a little be of what every animal does. It would explain. Why we never happy in a single type of environment. We always. Looking for comfort i can say more but it would take me long.
Maybe because we were genetically created 250,000 Years Ago by Aliens to mine gold for them. They needed Gold Dust to repair their atmosphere however the gold was extremely hard to mine,. So they created helpers...us.
