I believe in the value of conversations with people who see the world differently. This podcast episode gave me that opportunity. We disagree on evolutionary theory and religion, thoroughly discuss the science of curiosity, explore interventions for reducing the Black-White achievement gap, and spend time on dissent, friendship, and cognitive diversity. A sharp, unfiltered exchange.

And for premium Provoked members, enjoy the video and transcript of our last community call below.
