Episode 142 - Aw Shit, Here We Go Again
Listen now
Description
Jen and Noam discuss the only thing that happened this week - Donald Trump is officially going back to the White House. We don’t try to unpack all of the things because nobody needs to get in all of their takes in the first week but we give initial thoughts on what the election does and does not mean, how we don’t really have enough hard data to know the answer to that, jumping to conclusions based on confirmation bias, discussing policy vs vibes and emotions, what libertarian hell is, and the value of data driven arguments. We also touch on the pogram in Amsterdam that took place over the weekend and how it ties in to fears both rational and irrational about immigration and assimilation.  Check us out Thursday nights at 7:30pm EST on Twitch. https://www.twitch.tv/ambitiousxover
