Description

Welcome to Old School, where we revisit some of our best episodes from previous years with some current reflections on why these episodes are still fascinating. In this “Old School” episode, Dr. Michael Shermer joins Amanda to unpack why convictions, from religion to conspiracy theories, grip us so tightly—and how skepticism can help us stay grounded in an age of polarization and misinformation.
