Description

This episode discusses Louis appreciation for a high school history teacher, Dr. Yung, who effectively taught history by providing context, analogies, and diverse reading materials, particularly on Soviet Russia. This segues into Louis' critique of Apple, drawing parallels between Soviet propaganda and Apple's marketing strategies. He argues that Apple creates a utopian vision for its products, leading users to deny their own negative experiences and blame themselves for product issues.
