The Chris Spangle Show ·

2022/05/02

We've long talked about social media companies being the lesser censor and turning to the greater censor, the government, to fix the issues with these platforms would be a disaster for free speech. Unfortunately, the Biden Administration is setting up a “Disinformation Governance Board." What could possibly go wrong? We also touch on Elon Musk buying Twitter. We also witness the debut of "Hot Take Harry." Video - https://youtu.be/zwp81KY4PN8 Join WAL Plus now for commercial-free shows and our

2022/04/16

Dr. Travis Corcoran wrote a new book called Restoring Reason, and I love the concept. He talks about the Trivium, which is a system of thinking through concepts. The first three pillars of a liberal arts education are grammar, logic, and rhetoric. In other words, capturing knowledge, thinking it through, and then communicating those ideas. How can a systematic approach to information help us combat the discombobulating cascade of information we deal with on a daily basis? Listen as we outline it

My jaw dropped when I read the following: "When the nation was facing the COVID-19 pandemic without knowledge of when a vaccine would arise, at least 75 federal lawmakers held shares of Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, and Pfizer — all of which eventually benefited from nearly $6 trillion in relief bills to produce, manufacture, and distribute vaccines to the American public. Congress was directly involved in the creation and passing of these relief bills." Addison Hosner had a great article on the

Listener Ana and I have been talking a lot about the Eastern European view of the current Russo-Ukrainian War. She's from North Macedonia, which is north of Greece, south of Kosovo, and next to Albania. Her country was founded in 1991 after the dissolution of Yugoslavia, and has been in the constant push and pull of the West and Russia's sphere of influence. She gives us some perspective on life in this position as well as the growing concern in her nation about Putin's militarism. Video -

How can we spot content that is meant to persuade us to one side or the other?

Rob Kendall is the most hated man in Indiana politics and media, and I barely tolerate him, but he makes a lot of good points about the big government path that Indiana Republicans often walk down. I play one of his critics and give him a chance to answer them, and in the process, he makes the case for ending the big-spending habits of Republicans in red states and why there is a better path than shrugging and saying "they're better than Democrats."
