| There's so much here that's confusing. | |
| So let's first talk about what went wrong and what could have not gone wrong. | |
| Your whole podcast is about just having honest conversations about topics. | |
| It's offensive to your and my sense of justice. | |
| You actually care. | |
| How has my mind been fundamentally warped? | |
| So the topic today is the threat of nuclear war. | |
| Slow erosion of the social fabric. | |
| Synthetic media revolution. | |
| Collapse of our economy. | |
| The role of religion in public life. | |
| Morality and moral disagreement. | |
| Breakdown of truth. | |
| I'm scared that us two in a room will egg each other on. | |
| You can't have a subtle argument anymore. | |
| There's no place for nuance. | |
| Everything has to be binary for the right people to agree and disagree. | |
| It's not a healthy place for society to be when everyone is afraid to say anything. | |
| I've learned to exercise censorship on myself in a way that is deeply disturbing. | |
| I don't feel that I should have to. | |
| I appreciate who you are, really, and you elevated me and those ideas. | |
| I'll never forget you for it. | |
| Real danger during the Cold War was blundering into a nuclear war, and I believe that that is the same situation today, and with at least the same likelihood today. | |
| You're so full of Christmas cheer. | |
| Today I'm speaking with Robert Plowman. | |
| Here I reached out to Jonathan Haidt, William J. Perry. | |
| I am here with Gabriel Dance, Siddhartha Mukherjee, David Miliband, Graham Wood, Ricky Gervais, Stephen Fry, James Dillard, Chris Don Harris, Michael Sandel, Evonne Noah-Ferraro. | |
| Welcome to the Making Sense Podcast. |
