“In my view, there is not a pervasive problem of experts overstating their expertise. But there is a pervasive anti-intellectual bent in society. Populist supporters tend to trust politicians, pundits and Twitter more than they do their country’s doctors. That’s because populist sympathizers like this podcast constantly ridicule the faceless, monolithic “elite.” In my opinion we need to cultivate a better appreciation of expert opinion.”
