Ep46 -- The Upside of Falling Down

from The Great Ungaslighting Hosted by Craig Boreth

This week, an unsightly discovery while cleaning my house leads to some deep thinking about just how much truth about America I can handle. With a little help from Van Halen, Pee-Wee Herman, and Woody Allen, I come to terms with the fact that there have always been tyrannical Americans. And while it may just be wishful thinking, I manage to use that realization to try and figure out what it'll take to get back on track. Mentioned this week: A ridiculous review of AI features in appliances (Forbes Magazine) Humanity's first encounter with AI hasn't gone well (New York Times) Anand Giridharadas on why we're falling on our faces (The Ink) Thomas Piketty's theory on how market capitalism leads to oligarchy (Pluralistic)
