Show Notes

Ravi speaks with Reason’s Jacob Sullum about censorship, social media bias, and the link between political bias and platform moderation. They then turn to America’s crime rates, analyzing how Trump and Harris have used competing narratives on crime to shape public perceptions in the lead-up to the election and the real factors influencing crime trends.

Ravi then welcomes Bloomberg’s Kristen Bellstrom to the show to discuss her series on the erosion of trust in American institutions. They explore how and why trust has been declining since the 1970s and what can be done to rebuild confidence in government, media, and business.
