This is horrible. Confirmation bias through quotes. Almost no research and analysis of the topics. Critical thinking skills are in the trash. I’m dumber for listening to this.

Highly recommended for anyone concerned about the current state of the world.
I appreciate the dry humor and accessibility of the hosts. It's a good point of entry for anyone interested in starting to learn about the salient problems of our time while neither sensationalizing nor minimizing them.
