Welcome back to the Late Great Show. This Podcast episode will cover some important News items. I will also discuss the concept of truth and the problem of bias. I will especially point out how bias can lead to destructive fads, social contagion and mass panic. There are many people today running in circles and shouting "Climate Crisis!". It may be interesting to learn that all scientists possess some level of bias, especially politically active scientists. We all possess biases and seek to confirm our own world views. This is why it is so important the promote free and open speech. Unfortunately, Washington D.C. has been actively coordinating with social media companies to censor certain "forbidden" speech. This needs to stop. I hope you enjoy this episode.
