Discussion with Recommendations and Ad from Turpentine
The chapter includes a conversation with Richard Hanania covering various topics, along with recommendations to follow him on social media for more detailed insights. Additionally, ads from Turpentine highlight their podcast network and extend an invitation to tech companies for potential partnerships.
In this episode of Moment of Zen, Erik interviews Richard Hanania about the evolving political landscape in the U.S., focusing on the changing dynamics within both the Republican and Democratic parties. They discuss the influence of big tech, the rise of Trumpism, political polarization, and the intellectual underpinnings of current political ideologies.
We’re publishing this conversation across Moment of Zen and Upstream since the themes are highly relevant to both shows.
