Sarah Silverman covers RFK Jr.'s three-way race with Biden and Trump, orcas sinking another yacht, and Ronny Chieng chimes in on WeWork's bankruptcy. Smoking pot is now legal in NYC, but is it still cool? Sarah hits the streets to find out how New Yorkers have changed their weed habits and checks out one of NYC's newest licensed dispensaries. Plus, Cat Bohannon, researcher and New York Times Bestselling author of "Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution,” stops by to discuss some of the crazy ways the female body has evolved to survive reproduction, why the female body has historically been left out of biological and medical research, and how men can actually live longer, healthier lives without testicles.

You listening to carmody central.
election day? Did you vote?
Bad has its too late. Democracy is ruined because of you less.
I didn't vote in which case that nerd we've got a great show for you tonight. So let's get right into headlines the things I put some politics yesterday we talked about a new poll that shows Joe Biden doing much worse than you might think. Now. Another poll today
it was someone doing much better than you might think so. Take over this twenty twenty four election. This is if,
F, K junior is in the next thirty three percent bite and thirty five percent. From twenty four points,
Kennedy he use the highest pulling independent in decades in could pretend
we take millions of boats from either candidate twenty two percent, one point: twenty four percent and another. That is the kind of numbers we have
Seen since ross bureau are a key junior, is an overwhelming source of misinformation and disinformation, purveyor of vile conspiracy theories and fake science. He links
chemicals in our water supply to gender dysphoria.
Depressants to school, shootings, assistant, covered vaccines or a tool to control people via Michael.
That's right! Robert have come
It is in a three way race with trump and bite in which is definitely the worst three way a kennedy has ever been twenty four percent in the election. It would be the best showing for a third party candidate since teddy roosevelt and because our f k as anti facts, it would be the best showing for polio since
franklin. Roosevelt
and it could be historic. America can set the record for hiring the world's oldest nap. Oh baby.
On the other hand, this guy is crazy and here
I like trunk, crazy, where it's obvious right away. I mean as soon as you see trump you're, like oh yeah, this I know this. This is a broken man. The rfk is like so boring you, you gotta, be talking for twenty minutes before you realize he just said pesticides make people trans,
wow kill bugs
and be or authentic self sign me, and I, like our f k
junior back when he was the like clean water guy. Why couldn't we get that? Our f k,
Getting this our f k is like getting giuliani posts, sideburns drip bottom line. This is not good. You got one candidate who doesn't believe in vaccines and to others who were alive when they were invented vine, because whoever is president is going to have to handle a lot of problems beginning with an interim species war on the high seas,
with another killer whale attack in the high seas. Orchids sank three boats off spain earlier this year and guess what they are at it again: orchids surrounded this polish yacht sailing through the straits of gibraltar, ramming the vessel for forty five minutes until it sank, the crew is ok and export still aren't sure why the whales are being so aggressive. Oh, you aren't you
why the orchids are being aggressive? I don't know, maybe, because we keep stuffing their blow holes with empty bottles of mountain dew code red. I don't know why. We're surprised this is happening. They're, literally called killer whales. Are we also surprised when a blue whale is blue or a sperm whale guzzle sperm to the yacht owners? They put up a valiant defense against the oracle?
by yelling. Do you know my father s? Still it didn't work and nobody knows what to do about this. All I know is if orcas are going to keep destroying yachts. Jeff basis has,
world two years ago, the office sharing start up. We work began selling stock to the public and if you had the foresight and courage to invest in it at the time I have some
terrible news for you now to the stunning downfall of a company that was once the most valuable start up in the u s. This morning
the space rental company we work is hoping to rework it's business filing for chapter eleven bankruptcy. The company once privately valued at forty seven billion dollars, announcing the move overnight after years of controversies and poor performance shares plummeting ninety eight percent, since two thousand and twenty one trading at just eighty three cents. Yesterday
holy shit,
We work when, from a forty, seven billion dollar company to bankruptcy somewhere,
at their elon. Musk is going ooh challenge accepted the you know. What? Maybe this is an opportunity? America has a homelessness crisis and we work has all of the empty building space.
You see where I'm going with this right. We need to give the we were guy another hundred billion dollars, this on homelessness, more, we weren't lads, let's go live out to their headquarters with running chain, running right, what a fall from grace for we work, sir.
I had so shocking hooker predicted we work would fail with such a genius invention an office building. What a game changer. No one had ever thought of working in a building before we want
out in the rain now laptops getting salt.
What can we learn from a collapse like this? Well, there's a lot
Complicated financial technicalities involved, but I say the main lesson here is don't investing stupid shit, which I know is hard for america is most companies are stupid. I mean that there are no lady with the total neck. She got like a billion dollars. Why inventing a box full of broken glass and blood
I wish you had something ok to crypto. People were like hey,
but those coins moral would collect well for fifty grand, I can get you one without having to punch a total and everyone was. I saw me up
running to be fair, bad ideas are sometimes how you get the good ideas. That's a terrible idea. Sarah sir, the fact is this has been a disgraceful period for america. This dilemma: innovation, america,
edison him under the law,
bob and reform
who invented assembly line and benjamin franklin
who been to being bald while also having long hair right. So what do we do with all the remaining properties that we work has left behind well you're in euro, because I have a business idea of my own ask yourself: what do people in cities really need affordable, housing,
relax, MSNBC, ok in practical terms, what people really need, above all else, is a comfortable place too.
one where you don't have to pretend you're gonna, buy a bare call when you're done
about a place where I can take a dump where you can take it.
liberal, dobbs, conservative, gums, jobs of all colors and consistency with black girls and asia. Boys can take a dump in peace. Will someone jingling handle every five?
Why all in here to make it happen? All I need is twenty billion dollars and a couple a glade plugins, because american doesn't need a place to work. We just need a place to do.
our business. Thank you. Thank you fired. Let me come back. I get the streets to find someone to smoke with, so don't go away. The one thing we can never get more of his time give we this is, wants an export.

I'll check it out, there still remain and I'm back in new york city were now. We'd is the legal they have stores stores with we I mean what is this twenty three others days
made the kid I find someone to smoke this fancy new legal lead with do guys smoke pot.
I buy it from the store now or do you guys still? Are you loyal to your old dealers used to go?
I dunno my I got a text to your menu. So now you go down the corner and then there's like a store right there. I noticed a couple of you have walkie talkies. Is it for work hey? This is Sarah silverman. I just want to let you know that Curtis has diarrhea and he might be a little bit late
These guys didn't get stoner comedy, but maybe I'd find some bud buddies at one of the new license. Dispensaries like the union square travel agency, where buying dreads feels like well a little bit like making an appointment at the not so genius part when you legalize, they grabbed the first licenses to people being formerly incarcerated. When I first moved to new york city, the way I got weed was, I call my dealer get into his toyota yaris and have to sit in a smelly car. While I listen to his band's demo- and here I mean- are you in a band
I'm not mad refreshing.
Instead of dealers without professional boundaries, these new dispensaries have we'd maurice does eighty eight but tenders once again goals and the creativity everson tv with me feeling
I think I'm being held by like a sixteen put man cradle.
The baby. We have something for that really. So, what's your preferred method of consumption,
The thing that I can put it.
Finally like as some time now with leading edge just anything
not here,
Are you hi right now know I'd like to speak to manage
Hi hi means dealers what a strange new world, at least the customers were just like in the old days. What are you guys? Gonna do in your high where'd. You go
and do we get internet
and then the man
rallies whence brownies that kind of some kind of sex tourism
the national around the girl version. This railways sounds good. That's right at my alley. Can I get highways to shoot when it's time to get intimate, one of the best will have to leave
thanks dries and people aren't just using weed to enhance their eating and lovemaking. It helps with a lot of like anxiety or just like beckner pushing buttons just like. I don't want to talk to you anymore. It's like, I feel, if you smoke pot, and you realize that
thing you're worried about matters. I mean basically we're already dead. These you,
there is also still down their legal we'd. It seems like anyone could sell it to them
Hickory, like anyone at all when it went ills. Are you trying to solve with drugs is looking to higher than I've ever yeah, just ultimate high level?
We ended up, that's gonna be seven hundred and thirty eight dollars, it is
expensive, but it is cheaper than therapy,
all in all. It's crazy to think that something you can buy now for a lot of money in a fancy store used to get people sent to prison and many are still there. There are people,
that were put in prison for we'd crimes. It would be great if there is a radical exchange of wealth with people of serve time,
for something that politicians are making millions from now absolutely
I'm sorry, I'm stunt
still hadn't found anyone to smoke with besides the horny brownie lovers, but as usual new york city didn't let me down. This is crazy. We're actually doing a story about people, smoking, weed in new york and smoking weed in new york or new jersey and you're doing. What kind of weed is this? So this is like a sativa cookies blend classic, but I get it from a smoke shop. You get it illegally from a deli or from a smoke shop. You gotta be careful.
mike. I showed me photos of word grows and stuff. I trust yeah. He is a picture of any. There is definitely try.
This led me to address the most serious question that this issue had raised and got a dog at length
You think she loves me, or do you think it's just like I'm the person that feeds are so she just please. Your dog is low
That might be what you need, and even if it's not directed to you, that's all of you got so does it matter.
It doesn't really matter whether you get your weed from a fancy dispensary or as part of some tragically misguided drug war
as long as you smoke it with a friend my dog,
is love? I could cry. That's so beautiful love! My dog is love. Love made a mess on the carpet cleaned that mess up the the one thing we can never get more of his time or good week. This is what's next,
straight away. I designed to multiply productivity by automating tasks when you watson ex your business, you can build digital skills to help human resources, spend less time generating offer letters writing job rex and managing schedules and spend more time on humans.

if you use, elevates today to learn more about an education that elevates the mere james best seller eve, how the female bite
drove two hundred million years of human evolution. Please welcome cad for hannon. The matrix barbie of I know I know is it canker? Is a business casual? You don't know you gotta know, hey everybody, the hanging a letter to the lectern, so, okay, you set out
prove that the human body drove human evolution. What did you discover? One of the central things I discovered was that we
our garbage at making babies justly entire species. This is
so yeah flaming garbage pile? This is the technical term right, so we you wouldn't think so right, because we have eight billion people in the world right. So you think that we are obviously good at popping them out.
but no, no, no, no! No, no! Actually our pregnancies and birds and post partum recoveries are harder and longer and more prone to dangerous and crippling, and sometimes mercury complications than they are in most any other primary.
Works for a squirrel monkey and we feel real bad for her, but also also most other mammals. Actually, we do in fact suck at this and that changes, how you understand the story of the female body
That changes, how you understand what all this is for its, not that it is our destiny to make babies to be,
failed or some other mine yeah. Now I mean I love my kids, but I'm going to be done, but that no it's more
it's more like it's. How we do it, particularly as a species, is so bad that there
many failsafe. There are many things built in to kind of brace for impact
So it's more like that, yeah that there
ways in which our immune system has adapted, because the placenta down regulates the immune system. So you know, since you don't want to die of infection when you're pregnant, maybe you're.
system runs a little hot. The rest of the time right, it may be the case
as we breastfeed the way that we do, it may be the case that we have menstruation the way that we do in each case, because we are actually just trying not to die, I see and and from what
read you you found. What you found was that all of this,
Medical research and science has been
based on the what do we say: cis male sex at birth,
that yeah yeah it's just takes up
lay down so instead of turtles. Why? What exactly so? This is true in biological research. This is true in biomedical research. We are only studying males right and it's basically because this thing we call him
stroll cycle which a biologist will call an extra cycle is just so messy and complicated
so you do. You have the slope of hormones. Let's do in all kinds of things and a female body if you're studying mammal, so maybe just don't then dont. What study them
That seems to me this is all I see it as yet. Let's not deal we ass, it was it's not like. There was any sexist cabal. I'm not saying there isn't sexism it's more like,
It's not necessarily sexism that was driving at its more that there was a kind of unspoken agreement and biology. Oh will solve this problem. This messy messy check problem in rats, mostly by not studying the female yeah, which means
but by the time you get to doing biological research that might lead to pharmaceuticals. Well then, it may not have been studied on females at all
and then in fact, many of the medications that are on the market today have never bins.
I data on females at all from rat dog too often human. I know so many women who went to the doctor
over and over again with crippling pain, sent home, told to take a tylenol tall
that its in their head and it was endometriosis which men don't get. So this is what.
What I'm listening to you! I listen to your podcasts and you were talking about that and talking about how inflammation works different in a in a female body and obviously the lack of study,
and oh or that is just sexism actually
unfortunately when and we're just starting to come back around and really start to model how that's working. So there is,
good news on the horizon, but it's slow going yeah
the reason that we didn't understand that women,
are more likely to wake up on the surgery table is because we hadn't properly studied sex differences in anastasia. Now, it's rare
I know it's nightmare fuel, but by wake up, no, no, it's cool, but like it's very, very rare, but again a bit of a sex differences
so the moral imperative of studying female bodies is clear, but that book would not exist if it weren't for all of the amazing
often women and people of color scientists who are driving the new research.
Finding new things out, which are really cool, oh yeah, well, first of all, I just want to say,
about the anesthesia. I had throw
surgery once and they.
We had a- and I said it's not enough fire and then
in believe me, and then I proved it by explaining brexit
It was around that time things a little more jews. You know the amazing things you're finding as you do.
Are you running out? I mean
and believe when I heard you talking about-
breastfeeding
that the nipple has
answers and the the mouth of the the baby has sensors and they communicate and if the
we as sick, the nipple warlike ray
just the titty mill, great they're yeah. This is craig. You want me to talk about the upset, because I can
yeah yeah obsolete, does exactly what it sounds like you, p s use the uk. So when okay, so here's a boot, let's say it is fine. I mean or or here but right you know, and so, if you are properly latching and you're a new born, you are touching on to this whole boob structure, a kind of lamp re like right, you're forming a docking, see yet a new form of vacuum, but suckin in your choice.
And role in the tongue. Back, I don't is actually very invasive to think about. I had it I'm glad to be exciting but yeah. So what you're doing, though, is because you're moving the tongue under that nipple you newborn, not you maybe, but not. You write that you're moving. The focus of the vat is just physics, you're moving the focus of that vacuum back and forth in that inclusive space. What that does it creates a tide,
like you ve seen on the shores of california right. So you have the milk coming in and the wave on the top and underneath the tide. Of course,
you have an undertow so what's happening? Is the baby spit
is being socked back into the moms boob, where it then distributes through her ductile work and is read like some weird ancient code by an army of immunity, asians and sensors, which then tailor the milk to suit. If the kid is sick, the milk changes
and changes does. This is a two way: communication platform, it's an even so weird because it's like
we're like machines were like nature were like I dunno, and I look at outer space, and then I see like the inside of a human body. It all kind of looks the same that wasn't on these cards I'm solid, but
absolutely right. I, like you, think you are doing great too ally. Is research getting any better with this stuff? Yes, yes, and that is the absolutely good news I mean it. It's often intergenerational yeah. There is some resistance
the old guard? It's not like that's new to science, that's kind of in any industry when you have a social shift, when you have a paradigm shift,
an understanding what you're doing so. There is some resistance by the people who are giving the scientists the grants. There is
resistance from the old people, because it's not nothing to change your mind. What does that have to be told
For decades you maybe a nobel laureate, in fact- sometimes you know, were wrong about something. That's actually are
aren't shift that's hard to do. There are many older scientists who are leading the guard, but there are some who are not so that's a thing, but now
new generation come in and do and all the new science and it's like the wild west out there, a man like anywhere you look for sex difference in mammals, your kind of find one right,
also means that we dont entirely know what's gonna matter in the long run right, you know, cause it's new,
such as cutting edge science. It's like bleeding edge science freight, but it's cool,
cyanogen went forward.
Necessarily engendered its gendered in that it's like what your sex at birth is, but, like you were talking about the male and female brain and that their indistinguishable, yeah yeah yeah. Now don't do this at home, but if you do hold two cadaver brains in your hands, this occasion happens upon you. I can't imagine why, but if you work and the poorest, nobody prepped you to say this one came
from biologically male body. This one came from a female body. There is actually no way for you to know.
There may be some minor sex differences, imagination, some ratio of grey matter and one region button the exact same brain in another region. It'll have the opposite pattern. It's more like a sex mosaics is the only way
tell for sure is to literally shove them in a blender.
Some doubt we ve done this sluice them down count the cells and sequence. The dna and you're gonna have to do a number of them, because females who have given birth to males may well have some of his cells up in their brains. Just replay some wise, like some actual. Why,
That's how we know that. There's cameras on gadget cells are apparently probably in my brain, just doing some,
right yeah, but that is the only way to know just sequencing. The dna witches some cool,
really cholera document science where, but it sounds like be poetry that is all about the female form in the female body and all that stuff. The attack a lot about dick sleigh. Why so much deck I do? There is a surprising amount of dawn in this book. That is true. It's true. I mean it's like a woman holding a cell phone like did. There need to be that much penis in here.
Apparently, the answer is yes, because vaginas and penises not for your phone, but in this case vaginas in penises coal evolve in all speed.
that have them which mean you can't like talk about the other
mission of the bag without talking about
the co evolution of it. Some I dunno excitable partner.
Maybe eager earnest, earnest
Try real hard areas,
like a penis like an inside and outside vagina building.
the minutes and I don't really know you'd be surprised how scientifically accurate that question is my dear no actually, when the generals are forming in those early weeks in the rooms they all form from the same bud essentially and there's a diagram of it in the book very nicely dutch yeah and there are essentially the same thing for a long time and what becomes the glittering in a typical female belied except a tangle said clear, ass, clear, ass ends out, yet exactly so that it's not that it's an inside out vagina, but it is true that it is remarkably from the same stuff.
Yeah? What
Why shouldn't men read your book? Should men read your book? I think so for their own good. So the thing is, they can read my book,
care about it to learn about the human body. Like all the books we read or we can cut off their ball.
this ending wine, and yet I feel either
Do you like to expound? I will see. The thing is, let's talk about sex and longevity of the thing is: is that their
our many ways to extend a male mammals lifespan to make him live longer. We know that females generally live longer and males don't across mammals, but the one thing that you can do that's more reliable than just, but I think else is castrated.
His balls,
says- and we know this because we have cut out thousands of balls, ok for science right, so we have done rat balls. We have done rodents of all types. We have done dogs, you ve, probably done that we paid a guy, but that adds like a year and Adam S, dick dogs, like pigs and monkeys.
Humans. We have the data in humans, the korean court, the korean imperial court kept very good medical records and
how you next american men in the mid century, who were hospitalized usually from mental illness and because the history of eugenics is horrific, were also castrated,
god, medical records and a central asian tradition to all of these castrated males lived longer healthy,
lives than their regularly bald peers? And I'm not talking about
small game, it's an average of fourteen years, so why
Why is that you're smash erica's phenomenal
why are so many men smuggling too little death nuggets
What? Why are these the ping pong of destiny? Why? Why are these the actual
of wrath answer is we are not
highly sure we have some models. Some scientists are doing the work, but this is the actual future of gerontology figuring out why there are sex differences and aging, and why cutting off balls will make men live longer is how
are going to provide better medicine forces man and I think we can all get on board here
american men deserve better from medicare venomous cast
