What's this week's podcast about? Sam Harris speaks with Yuval Noah Harari about his new book, Nexus, and its application to current crises. They discuss humanity’s capacity for self-destruction, democracy and dictatorship as information networks, the “naive view of information,” the advantages of fiction over truth, trust in institutions, self-correction in a democracy, truth vs. power, truth vs. order, the suicide of conservatism, fixing social media, algorithms as editorial choices, efficiency vs. inefficiency, threats to democracy, and more.

What is a Podcast Club?: It’s like a book club for podcasts. We’ll listen to a podcast episode on our own, then get together at a bar or patio and talk about it in small groups. The atmosphere is casual, low-pressure, and laid back. The idea is to enjoy some thought-provoking conversation, learn a thing or two, and have some fun.
