Season 1, Episode 13

Mis-information, Dis-information, and Fake News. You are a product and target for all of it.

Brady and I discuss Mis-information, Dis-information, and Fake News. We discuss what it is, how it is used, and we are all a product and target for all of it. We discuss ways to avoid deception which leads to a philosophical discussion about truth, morals, and ethics. Brady takes a moment on the couch discussing how understanding the matrix for what it is can affect you on a personal level.
