Listen "The Critical Thinking Crisis: What You Can Do About It"

Episode Synopsis

We are in the midst of a critical thinking crisis. Instead of consuming news and media from objective sources, we increasingly rely on influencers and social media accounts, almost none of whom have editorial departments fact-checking their work. Traditional media has adapted to this brave new world by injecting more opinion in the endless quest for eyeballs and attention.

In this episode, we explore ways we can sharpen our critical thinking skills to counter these forces at play.
