Based Camp is a podcast focused on how humans process the world around them and the future of our species. That means we go into everything from human sexuality, to weird sub-cultures, dating markets, philosophy, and politics. Malcolm and Simone are a husband wife team of a neuroscientist and marketer turned entrepreneurs and authors. With graduate degrees from Stanford and Cambridge under their belts as well as five bestselling books, one of which topped out the WSJs nonfiction list, they are widely known (if infamous) intellectuals / provocateurs.

The Girl Gooner Apocalypse (Is A Good Thing?)
In this episode, Malcolm and Simone go deep on the female gooning wave — the explosive rise of erotic romance novels and smut that now makes up a huge share of what women are actually reading.We cover the hard data: romance sales growth, reading frequency stats, and older studies showing romance readers have more (and more satisfying) sex. Simone and Malcolm explain reactive sexuality, why these books can act as exogenous priming, and why the average effect on relationships appears positive rather than destructive.Then they break down the dominant tropes in the biggest current se...

Genesis’ “Random” Numbers Map Directly to 10,000 Years (Unique Discovery)
In this episode of deep biblical literalism, Malcolm and Simone Collins unpack Genesis 5–11 not as a list of impossibly long-lived individuals, but as a precise civilizational timeline and map.By treating the genealogies as sequential cultural phases rather than personal lifespans, the numbers align with the archaeological record of the Near East with startling precision — from Göbekli Tepe and Çatalhöyük through the Halaf–Ubaid transition (the “Flood”) all the way to the fall of Ur and Abraham. The Table of Nations emerges as an improbably accurate ethnographic map spanning from Spain to the Gulf, matching moder...

US Indian Women Suffer High Rates of __ (The Why is Hidden)
Simone and Malcolm examine the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit (MMIWG2S) movement and the dominant narrative that frames high rates of violence against Native women primarily as the legacy of settler colonialism, racism, and systemic failures.They dig into historical intertribal warfare and raiding practices, the actual circumstances of Sacagawea’s life (captured as a child, sold, and one of multiple wives of a fur trapper by age 16), National Institute of Justice and CDC data on perpetrators of violence and homicide, Canadian statistics showing the large majority of accused are Indigenous, reservation versus of...

Does Genesis Argue NPCs Are Real? (Do Pre-Adamites Still Exist?)
In this Based Camp Tract, Malcolm and Simone Collins tackle one of their most provocative religious questions: What does it actually mean to be “human” in God’s view?They dig into classic Genesis puzzles—Cain’s fear of being killed, the sudden appearance of his wife, the city of Enoch, and the strange language of Romans 5:12-14—and argue that the Bible may not treat every Homo sapiens as a full moral agent. Drawing on a techno-puritan reading, they place the Adam and Eve story at the dawn of moral accountability and civilization roughly 10,000 years ago near the Tig...

Did Woke 2.0 Already Fail? An Evolutionary Anthropology of Woke
In this episode of Based Camp, Malcolm and Simone Collins break down the evolution of the culture wars — from Woke 1.0 (SJW/Tumblr era) to Woke 2.0 (post-George Floyd radicalism) and the rapid emergence of Woke 3.0: the anti-AI movement.They argue Woke 2 is already over. The new front is a performative, high-anger rejection of AI that is more central in left online spaces than race, trans issues, or immigration. Key topics include:* The edginess pipelines on left vs. right and how the “terrorist left” evolved* Why anti-AI posting now dwarfs traditional woke content* Hank G...

Black Humans vs. Gay Socialists: The DNC Civil War
In this episode of Based Camp, Simone and Malcolm Collins unpack the Democratic Party’s multi-layered civil war and institutional mess. The DNC just fought an open racial and ideological battle over which state goes first in the 2028 presidential primary—South Carolina (Black voters) vs. Nevada (Latino voters)—while the party sits millions in debt, faces donor flight, phone-throwing drama from Chair Ken Martin, and a delayed, incomplete 2024 election autopsy that buried a chapter blaming Biden’s refusal to step aside.They cover:* Why the first primary state matters so much (and how it historically blocked...

As Community Erodes, Women Find New Ways to Bully & Cheat
In this episode of Based Camp, Malcolm and Simone Collins unpack the “Cheating Coven” — the TikTok-to-business pipeline of proud cheaters who turned affairs into a coaching brand, private community, and alleged harassment operation.They dig into the Mary Sue’s coverage of Chelsea Smallwood (“The Other Woman and the Wife”) and the lawsuit filed by a betrayed spouse after private texts, photos of children, health details, and claims of using her sex toys were shared inside a paid cheater community for mockery and humiliation.From the evolutionary psychology of female infidelity and “mean-girl” dominance displays, to the breakdown...

New Research: The Left Hates You WAY More than You Think
In this episode of Based Camp, Malcolm and Simone Collins dig into a recent study on political meta-dehumanization and the striking asymmetry in how liberals and conservatives mentally represent (and dehumanize) each other.Drawing on research published in Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin (“Political Meta-Dehumanization in Mental Representations”), posts from Cremieux and Arctotherium, and the composite face images the study produced, they unpack why liberals tend to see conservatives as savage, aggressive, and barely human, while conservatives tend to see liberals as immature, irrational, and naive. They also examine how each side misjudges the intensity of the othe...

How Has No One Caught This In Fauci's COVID Diaries?
In this episode of Based Camp, Simone and Malcolm Collins dive deep into the 1,141-page collection of Anthony Fauci’s private typewritten notes (December 2019–December 2022) released by Senator Rand Paul’s office.Most media coverage has been surface-level and dismissive. Simone spent significant tokens analyzing the full (scanned, hard-to-read) document. What emerges is far more revealing: Fauci’s early private concerns about lab-origin possibilities and gain-of-function research he helped fund, how the narrative hardened over time, his internal framing of expert disagreements, the evolution of mask guidance, vaccine safety signals he tracked privately, and the surreal personal side of...

Disability Reveal Parties: Society is Totally OK & Not Collapsing
Disability reveal parties are the new gender reveal — and they’re even more unhinged.Simone fell down the rabbit hole after an autism reveal cake-cutting video went viral on X. What started as one awkward TikTok turned into a full cultural phenomenon: color-coded diagnosis guessing games, AuDHD parties, autism cupcake toppers at Walmart, Oriental Trading disability party favors, and people treating their mental health diagnoses like a baby to nurture and celebrate.We watch the videos (including the “my brain is bad” one and the completely unhinged joke-diagnosis party that ends in pure Adderall cheers), dig into the Redd...

Book "Marry & Submit" Goes Viral (Leftists & Bishops Start Book Burning)
In this episode Malcolm and Simone discuss two massive bestsellers that took the Spanish-speaking world by storm: Marry and Be Submissive (for women) and its companion Lay Down Your Life for Her (for men). Written by Catholic author Costanza Miriano, the books became instant #1 hits — then faced years of protests, public book burnings, political demands for withdrawal, and accusations of promoting “violence against women.”We examine the actual content (far milder than the outrage suggests), the deliberate mistranslation of “mortification,” the biblical framework from Ephesians 5, and why the message resonates with so many women. We also break down where...

Again A Women Is Going to Jail For Insulting A Migrant Child R____st (Who Again Got No Jail Time)
Malcolm and Simone examine two recent cases in which white women received jail time for publicly confronting Black immigrants involved in child sexual assaults, while the perpetrators themselves faced little to no prison time.They detail the “pig” texting case linked to a migrant gang rape of a 14-year-old girl and the widely discussed “N-word” park confrontation involving a Somali man with his own prior child-rape history. From there the conversation expands to patterns of differential justice across the West, the failure of multiculturalism experiments, and why ethnic collectivism is a strategic dead end.The bulk of...

Asmongold Got An Ultimatum From His GF: The Internet Is Largely On Board
Asmongold has a girlfriend — and she handed him a list of ultimatums.In this episode of Based Camp, Malcolm and Simone break down Kai’Sa’s demands (clean the “contaminated” room, shower every other day, get the shorter haircut, cut the sugar) and explain why the majority of the nerd-right actually supports them.Is this domestication… or a woman who actually wants him healthy, functional, and capable of having the family he says he wants?We go through every confirmed demand, compare it to how real long-term partnerships work, talk s**t tests vs. genuine...

Dems Turn On Poly Gays For Islamists (We Called It!)
In this episode of Based Camp, Malcolm and Simone break down a major signal shift at the official collegiate youth outreach arm of the DNC (CDA).Hasan Piker appeared in a Mao Zedong suit delivering a fiery anti-compromise rant, while Destiny and his circle were reportedly banned from the event—despite having paid for tickets. At the same time, a man recently convicted on multiple felony terrorist-threat charges was allowed in.Malcolm and Simone examine the two dominant factions now competing for the future of the Democratic Party: the Hasan/Mondami (Islamist, anti-Western) wing versus th...

How They Hid The Economic Collapse of China (A 40% Collapse in Months)
China just cut oil consumption by a staggering amount — and almost no one is talking about it.In this episode of Based Camp, Malcolm and Simone break down the data showing China was responsible for ~74% of the entire global decline in crude oil imports during the recent Iran conflict. Seaborne imports down ~40%. Refining runs crushed. Oil prices that should have spiked instead collapsed back toward pre-war levels the moment a temporary peace deal was signed.Official explanations (strategic reserves, EV adoption, buyer strikes, commercial margins, Taiwan blockade drills) don’t hold up under scrutiny. The numb...

Hot Girls Created An Isolated Economic Loop (With David Lorentzon)
In this episode of Based Camp, Simone and Malcolm Collins sit down with researcher David Lorentzon to explore the “hot girl service economy”—an insular, self-reinforcing ecosystem concentrated in places like Bali, Phuket, Dubai, and Miami.Attractive women are drawn in by modeling gigs, OnlyFans, free travel, and aspirational Instagram lifestyles, then sustain each other through yoga studios, Pilates, hair, makeup, and other services run by other women in the same scene. The result is a lifestyle that rewards staying single, staying hot, and never putting down roots—making family formation and community nearly impossible.David ex...

AI Girlfriends: Women But Not Crazy? (85% of Youth Dating AI)
In this episode of Based Camp, Simone and Malcolm Collins dive deep into the rising phenomenon of AI girlfriends and boyfriends — and why it might be the real flashpoint for a modern Butlerian Jihad, far more than data centers or water-usage myths.They break down shocking UK research showing 1 in 5 boys aged 12–16 are in (or know someone in) a romantic relationship with an AI companion, the Telegraph’s coverage of schoolboys getting hooked on low-quality platforms like Candy AI and Character.AI, and China’s sweeping July 2025 regulations that effectively ban emotional AI companions and relegate AI to “serv...

America Is Heading For Civil War (So Says Chimp Research)
In this episode of Based Camp, Simone and Malcolm explore the ongoing chimpanzee civil war in Uganda’s Ngogo community—the largest wild chimp group ever studied—and what it reveals about how civil conflicts actually start.What looks like a random outbreak of violence among chimps turns out to be the mechanical result of a few subtle shifts: the deaths of key intermediary individuals who once connected rival subgroups, a power transition, and the complete breakdown of everyday social exchange. Once those bridging relationships vanished, the community split into hostile blocs that began patrolling, ambushing, and killin...

The Noticing Intensifies: I Wish I Had Not Pulled This Thread
In this episode of Based Camp, Malcolm and Simone unpack a striking civilizational pattern: nearly every major cultural movement of the past 100 years—blues, rock, rap, punk, goth, grunge, techno, heavy metal, and more—along with most modern sports (soccer, basketball, baseball, rugby, American football, etc.), top video games, and key inventions originated in Protestant-majority countries or regions.Catholic-majority areas dominate refinement and style (think Paris and Italy) and often excel at competing within existing frameworks, yet almost never invent the new forms themselves. Japan, Korea, and a few outliers like Poland provide the main exceptions.Th...

Danes Got Rid Of Migrants: What Happened Next Was CRAZY
Today on Based Camp, Simone and Malcolm dive into Denmark as a case study in one of Europe’s most aggressive attempts to manage immigration and “parallel societies,” exploring how its data-driven “ghetto package” combines temporary asylum, strict self‑sufficiency rules, mandatory cultural assimilation programs, and even forced redevelopments and evictions to break up poor, high‑crime, non‑Western housing enclaves—and what this experiment reveals about the trade‑offs between social cohesion, individual rights, and EU anti‑discrimination law.What do you think of Denmark’s approach? Is it a good way to accept migrants and asylum-seekers while min...
