Ep. 2283 Fake Conspiracies Democrats Still Believe
And a handful of Republicans, too, but let's be reasonable here: Democrats are vastly, vastly more diluted at this stage of our history than Republicans are. Keith Knight joins us for a lightning round of examples of things that are flat-out false that Democrats nevertheless believe and try to impose on everyone else.

Ep. 2282 Do Viruses Exist?
The most direct and radical challenge to the public-health consensus about COVID-19 and the correct response to it has come from a group of scientists who claim that virology itself is pseudoscience that has led mankind down the wrong path. One such scientist, Dr. Mark Bailey, joins us to share his perspective. Sponsor: Persist SEO Show notes for Ep. 2282

Ep. 2281 The Psychology of Human Action: Why Some People Slavishly Follow the Elites
Jeff Leskovar wanted to figure out why so many people adopt the whole program of the elites, even though there's no particular reason that someone who favors arming Ukraine should also favor, say, a higher minimum wage. All these positions are nevertheless held as a bundle. Those holding them tend not to want to debate, and seem relatively untroubled by the suppression of their opponents' voices. Jeff thinks he's discovered the reason behind all this, and he shares it with us today.

Ep. 2279 Spotify Isn't the Devil, and Other Items from the Music World

Ep. 2278 The President Historians Hate
Warren G. Harding has often come in dead last, or close to it, in historians' rankings of the presidents. These rankings are completely useless, since they simply reflect the political bias of historians. (How can someone nonideologically declare whether a president was a "failure" or not?) Ryan Walters, author of a new biography of the twenty-ninth president, reassesses the brief tenure of a man we've been urged to despise. Sponsor: Blinkist Show notes for Ep. 2278

Ep. 2275 Is the Economy Screwing Young People?
We hear a lot of anecdotal data about young people struggling, about the problems of high prices and low wages, and millennials living with their parents. I wanted to know how true this was in general, and if it was, what was causing it. So I invited Gene Epstein, King of Data, to join us to get to the bottom of it.
