Science, Polarisation, and Why Nobody Trusts Politicians

from The ProBoh Show · host Rob Grams

In the first part of today’s show, we explored how teaching the history of science could help students navigate increasingly polarised times and encourage more critical thinking in public debate. Today’s unpopular opinion was: politicians should earn minimum wage. In the second half of the show, we asked 100 humans: name a profession you trust less than a politician.
