If you’re looking for someone who doesn’t just talk about big ideas but actually forces you to rethink how the world works, Howard Bloom is in a category of his own. Bloom has spent decades dismantling conventional wisdom—about evolution, culture, power, creativity, and the hidden systems that quietly shape human behavior. He’s not interested in trends or

If you’ve spent the last few years binge-watching documentaries about human behavior, doom-scrolling think pieces about why society is unraveling or listening to podcasts that start with “what if everything we know is wrong…” — congratulations. You’re already halfway inside Howard Bloom’s brain. His latest book, The Case of the Sexual Cosmos: Everything You Wanted to Know About Nature Is
On Monday December 8th the Oxford University Press Journal SLEEP Advances made a startling claim: that, as one headline put it, getting less than seven hours of sleep is linked to shorter life expectancy. In other words, get less than seven hours of sleep per night and you shorten your life. Which means that getting between
Why should we give thanks on Thanksgiving? We live in a system much bigger than we are. Our foods come to us courtesy of a sun 95 million miles away, and courtesy of life’s 3.5 billion year evolution. What’s more, our foods don’t just come from California, Florida, Brazil and Africa. Our turkey comes to
Frankly, I was horrified by the coverage of Israel’s retaliatory strikes on October 29th. Horrified by the headlines claiming, “strikes kill more than 100 in Gaza.” And horrified by the mainstream media’s coverage of this entire Gaza war. The mainstream media has been hijacked by Hamas. Hijacked by Muslim movements that want to see Israel exterminated
This is not the same world it was on January 20, 2025. Things we are accustomed to are being yanked away. And things we were taught to believe are true are now being called false. Plus some of the things we’re being told are not true at all. The trend in governance is turning upside down. For 90 years,
In September, when Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the president of Ukraine, sat down for nearly an hour in a private session with Donald Trump at the UN General Assembly, Zelensky asked for American Tomahawk missiles. Then, two days ago, on October 6th, Trump told reporters that before making a decision he wanted to clarify exactly how the
We may be closer to World War Three than we have been in 42 years. World wars happen when giant alliances face off against each other, with each nation pledged to come to the defense of the other. World War I happened when there were two giant alliances facing off against each other. Those alliances had
Early in the afternoon of Wednesday, August 6th, President Donald Trump made a surprise announcement on a phone conference with the leaders of Britain, Germany, NATO, Finland, and Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Trump said that he would hold an unexpected meeting next week: a summit with Vladimir Putin of Russia. And soon after, he would preside over
Here’s the question. Has Vladimir Putin been playing Donald Trump, stringing him along, and making a fool out of him. You be the judge. On June 14th, President Trump had a phone call with Russia’s President Putin. When it was over, Trump was optimistic about achieving peace. To show Russia’s willingness to negotiate, President Trump
“A once great American City, Los Angeles, has been invaded and occupied by Illegal Aliens and Criminals… I am ordering all necessary action to liberate Los Angeles from the Migrant Invasion.” President Donald J. Trump “Los Angeles would have been completely obliterated without my intervention.” President Donald J. Trump First, the facts. On Friday, June 6th, an
On May 19th, after a two-hour phone call with American President Donald Trump, Russia’s President Vladimir Putin made a promise. Putin promised that he would work with Ukraine on a memorandum to advance president Trump’s effort to end the Ukraine War, the War that Donald Trump told voters he would stop in his first 24 hours in
Today’s world is driving some of us insane. Especially us liberal Democrats. Why? The realities we take for granted are heaving beneath our feet. For example, Democrats believe that standard ethical and moral norms have been swallowed by a sinkhole. On May 14th, our president openly used his Saudi trip to make business deals for his family.
On Monday April 14, 2025, the peer-reviewed sociology journal Socius published an article called “Breaking Free of the Iron Cage,” a striking title. Why was Breaking Free of the Iron Cage so arresting that even the lofty physics outlet Phys.org gave it space? StudyFinds, an outlet that sums up the latest eye-catching scientific research, said Breaking Free of
It all started at 2 am Tuesday morning, March 18th. Israel broke the ceasefire. War planes filled the Gaza sky. Bombs were dropped. Thirty-five airstrikes were made. Hamas claimed that over 400 people were killed, most of them women and children. But remember, Hamas makes heavy use of lying in war. It’s called taqiyya, a form of lying
I’ve now seen death from two very different points of view. In 1988, I was hit by an illness without a name, an illness that would imprison me in my bedroom for the next fifteen years. Today it’s called myalgic encephalomyelitis or chronic fatigue syndrome. I lost nearly everything that had made me me, the
MIT physicist and cosmologist Max Tegmark says in his book Our Mathematical Universe that math is the universe. And many believe that ideas without a mathematical foundation are not science at all. Jesus had an opinion on this sort of thing. He said about the strictness of the high priests of his day, the Sabbath was made for man,
Tuesday, February 4th, a little after five pm, president Donald Trump made a series of statements on Gaza that stunned the world. He proposed that the people of Gaza be moved to Egypt and Jordan. President Trump said that America would go into Gaza with armed troops if necessary, that America would clear the land of
Even to a Democrat like me, Donald Trump’s first ten days in office were mind-blasting. President Trump issued over 100 executive orders, proclamations, and memoranda in just his first week in office. Joe Biden had signed 15 executive orders in his first day. Trump signed 26. Then Trump just kept signing. He broke records and hired 1,300 new
The Case of the Sexual Cosmos is the highly anticipated book of paradigm-challenges from Howard Bloom, the man Britain’s Channel 4 TV calls the Einstein, Newton, Darwin and Freud of the 21st century. And the Case of the Sexual Cosmos: Everything You Know About Nature is Wrong just may turn your existing view of yourself
