Comics Big Jay Oakerson, Luis J. Gomez, and Dave Smith are the hosts of "Legion of Skanks," a podcast on the GaS Digital Network.
Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down with Dr. Bret Weinstein and Dr. Heather Heying to discuss the state of our country, the evolution of corruption, and the unified vision of the future we can all rally behind.
Dr. Weinstein is an evolutionary biologist who specializes in adaptive trade-offs. His current focus is on the interaction between genetic and cultural evolution. He has worked for 14 years as a professor at The Evergreen State College, testified to the U.S. Congress, and been a visiting fellow at Princeton University. He hosts the DarkHorse Podcast and is a New York Times best-selling author. Bret has been a frequent guest on today’s most notable podcasts, such as the JRE Experience, and has been interviewed by some of the most influential and well-known hosts in the industry.
Dr. Heying is an evolutionary biologist, interested in everything from brains to bugs, culture to consciousness. She has conducted research on the evolution of social systems and sexual selection, from frogs to humans. She received her PhD in Biology from the University of Michigan, where she earned the university’s top honor for her dissertation, and has a B.A. in Anthropology from the University of California at Santa Cruz. Most recently, she was a Visiting Fellow at Princeton University.

The Company of Eagles was established in 1985 by an Air Force veteran.
The company was re-established under new ownership in 2014 after passing of the founder and his son. The business was left to the son’s life long friend who was there to see the building of the company from the beginning and still uses the same family of craftsmen to create these magnificent emblems. Our promise was, and remains to continue the legacy of the Bergsmann family business. The new ownership has been in the apparel trades since 2004 and combined these two businesses into a single operation. So our offerings are an expansion of available products to better serve the collectors and gift markets. You can always be confident in the quality of products from The Company of Eagles. Thank You, and we look forward to serving you!
