Show Notes
<html><p>We’re all ideological, even if we don’t admit it. We like to think of everyone else as ideological, but imagine our own views to be “reality-based,” simply a clear-eyed picture of how things really are. That's nonsense, and today's episode is all about why.</p><p><br/></p><p>My guest is <a href="https://flight.beehiiv.net/v2/clicks/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL3R3aXR0ZXIuY29tL2phc29ud2JsYWtlbHk_bGFuZz1lbiIsInBvc3RfaWQiOiI0MzMyZmI5Ni02NWFhLTRmZjItODY3MS1hYjgyM2ViMDQxMDkiLCJwdWJsaWNhdGlvbl9pZCI6ImZjNjZkYWRhLTMzYWYtNGE0My1iNWMwLTZhZjg4MjdiZGMwZCIsInZpc2l0X3Rva2VuIjoiNzUzZTMyNWQtMjU3OS00ZGI1LTg1ZDQtNmM2YzgyODEwMjEyIiwiaWF0IjoxNzEzOTc3ODQ2LCJpc3MiOiJvcmNoaWQifQ.Ozq3SgMKelkZ9DxoiXHk41hyuUSe_3NpkV_a8ZSd7hM" target="_blank">Jason Blakely</a>, a political science professor at Pepperdine University and author of the new book <em><a href="https://flight.beehiiv.net/v2/clicks/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL2Ftem4udG8vNGFQRVFmVCIsInBvc3RfaWQiOiI0MzMyZmI5Ni02NWFhLTRmZjItODY3MS1hYjgyM2ViMDQxMDkiLCJwdWJsaWNhdGlvbl9pZCI6ImZjNjZkYWRhLTMzYWYtNGE0My1iNWMwLTZhZjg4MjdiZGMwZCIsInZpc2l0X3Rva2VuIjoiNzUzZTMyNWQtMjU3OS00ZGI1LTg1ZDQtNmM2YzgyODEwMjEyIiwiaWF0IjoxNzEzOTc3ODQ2LCJpc3MiOiJvcmNoaWQifQ.uBvu6ZMYRe0SGoFqP5IJnzoPZQZzgLI_XIAQSRLVQwo" target="_blank">Lost in Ideology: Interpreting Modern Political Life</a></em>.
