#350 — Sharing Reality

Sam Harris speaks with Jonathan Rauch and Josh Szeps about the
foundations of knowledge and the fragmentation of society. They
discuss the state of the mainstream media, diversity of
viewpoints, the "reality-based" community, what Covid did to our
information landscape, the Overton window and the news value of
controversial stories, the unique challenge of Trump and
Trumpism, the dangers of a second Trump term, the problem of
immigration and controlling the southern border of the U.S., and
other topics.
