Tammeler: There's something in our DNA that makes us susceptible to this bullshit. He says self-help discourages a more social and more structural types of reform. Tammeler thinks tammeler needs to adopt a growth mindset to this stuff. The author is also open to the argument that America has been a land of self help for centuries.
Journalist, podcaster, and rapper Jesse Singal joins us to talk about his new book The Quick Fix, positive psychology (scam?), cancel culture in the media and academia (overblown?), Substack incentives, and lots more. Plus David and Tamler argue about the epistemology of ghosts.
Special Guest: Jesse Singal.
