390: John Inazu on Why People Don’t Trust Mainstream Media, Government, and Pastors, Anti-Intellectualism Uncovered, AI and Deep Fakes, and How to Disagree with People Effectively

Podcast · April 24, 2024

Joining us today is law professor and author John Inazu. We will unpack the deeper reasons why people don’t trust mainstream media, government, and sadly, even many pastors. We’re also going to discuss a common cultural lean toward anti-intellectualism, and the influence of AI and deep fakes upon our psyches which directly affect our mental and emotional health. And in an election year, we’re going to take time to learn communication strategies to disagree with others more effectively…and respectively.
