143. Jay Jackson on Saving the Country Through Decent Discourse

A lot of media is not especially interested in discourse. You see
a lot of dramatic headlines and hours of “What’s the guy mad
about today?” but today Jay Jackson, attorney and author of the
new book Decent Discourse: Saving Your Country By Loving Your
(Wrong) Neighbor, is in conversation with Tom Knoblauch about the
value of true conversation. Jackson sees a way to solving our
polarized climate, and then the problems that a polarized climate
cannot solve, through being decent. His book on the subject is
available now.
