World Without Facts (A Third Way, Part IV)

from Naming the Real

How do we live in a world where everyone sees a different reality? In this episode, Brandon Cook explores the growing crisis of the "post-truth" age—an era where emotional narratives, tribal loyalty, and information overload often overwhelm basic facts. Examining how confusion, spectacle, and the constant flood of information can erode our shared sense of reality. He notes when facts become negotiable, something deeper begins to unravel—not just politics, but our ability to make moral judgments at all. The result is a culture where people increasingly contort themselves to defend what they know isn't true. So how do we live with integrity in a world where truth itself feels unstable?
