Show Notes

Dr. Todd Rose joins us to shed light on why we fall victim to social influences and how we often misjudge the beliefs of others. We dive into the deep psychological underpinnings of America's recent cultural breakdown of public trust and why so many people on the left and right are being pressured into self-censorship.

He is the co-founder and president of Populace, a think tank committed to ensuring that all people have the opportunity to pursue fulfilling lives in a thriving society.
