Episode Details

We take a quick look at Kanye West, Alex Jones, and Donald Trump, but move on to important lessons from the Proverbs. As Kipling would put it, we limp up to explain it once more . . . Here's the tale of two girls and a guy. These were just kids, super self-confident kids who were able to dupe millions of people, including some of the most respected cabinet officials of the most powerful nation on Earth. Have we become a nation of dupes? We don't recognize character anymore. We don't recognize healthy economics, wisdom in the area of business anymore . . . we don't recognize good science, well-tested technology . . . anymore. . . . We can't distinguish any of this from sheer hype, youthful foolish energy, nice-sounding platitudes, and empires built on sand.
