In today’s deep dive, Tom unpacks the critical difference between simply feeling right and actually being right—a distinction that could make or break your life’s trajectory. He shares the personal journey that led him from chasing wealth to developing what he calls the "physics of progress," a powerful mental framework designed for real, lasting success across every area of life.
Tom reveals the pitfalls of relying on inherited beliefs and values—your “frame of reference”—and why most of us follow what feels right, rather than what truly works. Against the dizzying backdrop of rapid advances in technology, political division, and an AI-driven future, Tom explains why thinking for yourself is more essential—and more challenging—than ever. He breaks down his five-step algorithm for error correction, truth seeking, and sidestepping the traps of ego and emotion, and he shares eye-opening stories and examples, from historical catastrophes to modern incentive structures in business and politics.
Tune in for Tom’s honest look at what it really takes to avoid manipulation, course-correct your thinking, and build a life—and a legacy—that truly lasts. If you’re ready to dive deeper into how you can adapt, evolve, and win in a world that’s constantly changing, this episode is for you.

Welcome back to The Tom Bilyeu Show. In this episode, I dive in with my co-host Drew to break down a week jam-packed with global upheaval and high-stakes politics. We unpack some of the biggest moves on the world stage—like Trump’s headline-grabbing trade negotiations with China, a massive multi-billion dollar defense and tech deal with Saudi Arabia, and his bold executive order aimed at reducing Big Pharma’s stranglehold on drug prices.
But as always, the deals and headlines are just the jumping-off point. We get into the real questions—like whether these rapid-fire moves are true progress for America or just chaos with unintended consequences. Are we being played by world powers like China and Russia? Is Trump’s “deal-maker” approach buying America a better future, or just handing our rivals more time to regroup?
I lay out my thoughts on what makes a powerful negotiator, the dangers of price fixing, and why our economic system might be more broken than most people realize. We also wade through the latest culture war flashpoints, from immigration anxiety in the UK and the controversial plans for a Muslim-majority city in Texas, to viral rumors about global leaders behaving badly. Trust me, I don’t hold back on the uncomfortable truths about assimilation, what actually makes a nation strong, and why a thriving culture needs a clear and inspiring vision of the future.
If you’re interested in getting past the headlines and understanding the deeper forces shaping our world—economically, culturally, and politically—you don’t want to miss this episode. Tune in for an unfiltered look at how today’s deals and dramas will impact tomorrow’s destiny.

On this mind-bending episode of Impact Theory, Tom Bilyeu sits down with Ben Lamm, the visionary entrepreneur behind Colossal Biosciences, to explore a world that sounds straight out of science fiction—yet is rapidly becoming our reality. Together, they pull back the curtain on the groundbreaking technology making de-extinction not only possible, but increasingly practical, from resurrecting woolly mammoths and dire wolves to saving endangered species and unraveling the secrets of longevity.
Ben explains how CRISPR gene editing has unlocked the power to make precise DNA changes—editing multiple genes simultaneously, synthesizing entirely new genetic blocks, and pushing the limits of what's possible in biology and conservation. The conversation dives deep into the technical hurdles, ethical questions, and the unexpected magic of re-engineering life itself, whether it’s creating hairier, “woolly” mice or tackling the colossal challenge of artificial wombs and universal eggs.
But this episode goes way beyond Jurassic Park fantasies. Tom and Ben debate the future of human health, gene selection through IVF, the specter of eugenics, global competition in biotechnology, and how AI will soon supercharge the pace of biological engineering. They even touch on revolutionary solutions to our plastic crisis and what it means to inspire the next generation of scientists.
Get ready to have your mind expanded. This is not just a podcast about bringing back extinct creatures—it’s a deep dive into the next frontiers of life on Earth, the technologies changing everything, and the choices we’ll face as architects of our own biology. Let’s get legendary.

Welcome to The Tom Bilyeu Show! In this episode, I’m diving deep into the chaos and complexity of today’s global headlines and cultural shifts. Kicking things off, I break down my thoughts on the new U.S.-UK trade deal announced by Trump—what’s real, what’s just political theater, and how it fits into the much bigger game we’re all playing against China. Alongside Producer Drew, we look at the straight-up math and messy realities behind tariffs, the importance of “letting your opponent save face,” and what actually makes for a win on the world stage.
We go beyond the headlines, unpacking escalating tensions between India and Pakistan, and exploring why the global community has to keep one eye on conflicts between nuclear powers. I also share my take on the volatile landscape of U.S.-China relations, chip export restrictions, and the all-out race for AI supremacy—plus why policy tweaks and trade-offs matter way more than most people think.
Of course, we don’t shy away from the lightning rods in American culture either. From the fallout over the latest display of antisemitism in music and nightlife, to the uproar about auditing government spending and the ongoing Doge drama, I get honest about what these signs say about the health of our society and where we’re heading as a culture.
Whether it’s the unprecedented introduction of an American Pope or just finding ways to keep your own financial house in order during turbulent times, we’re asking tough questions, challenging old narratives, and looking for the patterns that really matter. Strap in—this is a wide-ranging, no-holds-barred look at the world through my lens, inviting you to think critically, question deeply, and embrace the changes coming our way.

Dr. Jordan Peterson breaks down what the media has framed as a battle between Harvard University and the Trump administration—but it's much deeper than that. Peterson exposes the ideological decay at the heart of elite academic institutions, driven by the dogma of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) and enforced through cowardice, corruption, and groupthink.
From firsthand experience at Harvard, McGill, and the University of Toronto, Peterson connects the dots between academia's collapse and its ripple effect on society. With insights into why DEI statements are eroding scientific credibility, how universities became ideological factories, and why the future of higher education may lie in alternatives like Peterson Academy, this episode is a must-watch for anyone who cares about truth, merit, and intellectual freedom.

Welcome back to the Tom Bilyeu Show! I’m Tom Bilyeu, and in this episode, we’re diving headfirst into the chaos and complexity of today’s headline news and cultural battlegrounds.
We kick things off by unpacking the latest escalation in the Middle East—Israel’s strike on Yemen, Trump’s public threats directed at Iran, and Netanyahu’s forceful response. I share my concerns about how these tensions spiral, questioning just how close we are to an unmanageable conflict and the real dangers of reckless political moves.
From there, Drew and I break down Trump’s recent comments about a third-term run, his muddled stance on the Constitution, and the strategic way politicians dodge the toughest questions. You’ll hear my unfiltered reactions about the value of honest discourse—and why political maneuvering often drives me nuts.
We take a global view with a deep dive into China’s aggressive courtship of the EU, the economic chess game at play, and whether Western values still hold sway—or if we’re entering a new era of international alliances and rivalries that could redefine everything.
Closer to home, we explore Stephen Miller’s combative press conference and the way America’s culture war is playing out in real time through issues like DEI, race, and free speech. The viral Shiloh Hendrix story—a disturbing blend of racism, online controversy, and big fundraising—serves as a jumping-off point for a brutally honest conversation about whether we’re really moving forward as a society, or simply exposing old wounds to new light.
Finally, Drew and I look to the future with Mark Zuckerberg’s rollout of personalized AI “friends,” the loneliness epidemic, and why marriage is suddenly being written off as a thing for the “old and the poor.” I share my personal take on the meaning of relationships and why, despite all the noise, real human connection never goes out of style.
This episode is honest, raw, and unwilling to shy away from the uncomfortable. We don’t sugarcoat, we don’t take easy sides, and we push for deeper understanding—even when it’s messy. So strap in for a wild ride—this is the Tom Bilyeu Show at its most fearless and frank.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu! In this fascinating episode, Tom sits down with best-selling science fiction author Andy Weir, best known for The Martian, to dive deep into the near, mid, and far future of artificial intelligence and its impact on society. From the creative disruptions already happening in art and entertainment, to the profound ethical questions that come with gene editing, personalized narratives, and the possibility of designer babies, Andy brings his signature "hard sci-fi" approach and optimistic pragmatism to every topic.
Together, Tom and Andy unpack how AI could completely change how we tell stories, the fundamental nature of human narrative and shared values, and whether a future filled with personalized, AI-driven content will fragment or empower us. They explore not just the dangers and disruptions, but also the massive potential for AI in medicine, materials science, and even space exploration—plus why Andy believes the supportive, creative side of humanity will always win out.
This is a wide-ranging, thought-provoking conversation that challenges our assumptions about technology, morality, human nature, and where we’re really heading over the next five, twenty-five, or even one hundred years. Get ready for a ride across possible futures, hard truths about progress, and a few good laughs along the way. Let’s jump in!

Is the radical right becoming the very thing it hates? Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down with Dr. James Lindsay to unpack the rise of the "Woke Right"—a faction of online reactionaries using the same tactics of victimhood, outrage mobs, and cult-like behavior once exclusive to the radical left.
Together, they explore how parasitic ideologies hijack belief systems, mimic virtue, and weaponize social media to manipulate the masses. From cluster B psychopathology to Nazi apologetics, from Marx to modern meme culture, this is a deep dive into the psychological and ideological rot infecting both ends of the spectrum.
If you've sensed that something is deeply wrong in today’s culture wars—on both sides—this episode puts it into words.
Dr. James Lindsay has written eight books spanning a range of subjects including education, postmodern theory, and critical race theory. Dr. Lindsay is the Founder of New Discourses, an organization dedicated to shining the light of objective truth in subjective darkness. Dr. Lindsay is the co-author of “Cynical Theories: How Activist Scholarship Made Everything about Race, Gender, and Identity―and Why This Harms Everybody” and is the author of “Race Marxism,” as well as his newest book, “The Marxification of Education.” Dr. Lindsay has been a featured guest on Fox News, Glenn Beck, Joe Rogan, and NPR, and he has spoken at the Oxford Union and the EU Parliament.
This episode was filmed on April, 29th, 2025.

Welcome to The Tom Bilyeu Show! I’m Tom Bilyeu, and in this episode, we’re tackling some of the biggest headlines and hot-button issues shaping our world right now. My co-host Drew and I jump straight into the US’s latest critical minerals deal with Ukraine, and what that means for pushing back against Russia—not just militarily, but economically, too. We dive deep into why America’s economy is contracting, the ripple effects of tariffs, and what it could mean for Main Street as small businesses find themselves on the frontline of the global trade war.
We also discuss the controversial release of a Columbia University student activist detained over Palestinian rights protests, unpacking what this case says about due process, immigration, and how we protect our cultural values in tense times. In the world of tech, I share my thoughts on Sam Altman’s new retina-scanning device—an attempt to protect against a future where AI-generated content blurs the reality line online.
Rounding it out, we take on RFK’s latest fight with the soda industry over SNAP benefits, and why the way we think about welfare, health, and prosperity might be leading us down a dangerous path. This episode is packed with challenging questions, fresh perspectives, and unfiltered takes on a rapidly changing world. Let’s get into it—because, as always, it’s about staying informed, empowered, and legendary.
