Today's episode comes from an article I read that helped me to understand a little better why there is such division in the world. How can people in the same culture have such different ideas about things such as science? The article is "How and Why Anti-science propaganda works" by Amitabha Palmer. I've simplified and shortened his academic paper for my English learners, but you're welcome to read the entire paper here: https://wrestling-with-philosophy.com/2020/01/08/how-and-why-anti-science-propaganda-works/  It's very interesting.

I've also included a few idioms: "jump on the bandwagon", "The ball is in their court." and "I'll be glad to see the back of him." As always, you can get a transcript of today's episode with a vocabulary list at my website: https://alexseslworld.com/ Just click on "Podcast" and you'll find it.
