In this episode, Alison and Jerome got on board with Jonathan Haidt to discuss social media and how these platforms have changed social relationships and political discourse, and how this eventually impacts business.

They also talked about structural stupidity and how giving everyone a voice is not necessarily the panacea everyone thought to be.

Jonathan Haidt is a social psychologist at NYU-Stern. He studies moral and political psychology and business ethics.

His latest essay "Why the past 10 years of American life have been uniquely stupid" is available at this link: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2022/05/social-media-democracy-trust-babel/629369/
