The Rip CurrentHow to Defeat Loneliness (with David Jay)We’ve all experienced loneliness, but could you really describe what it is, and what it does to you, beyond the physical experience of isolation? Before this conversation, I couldn’t.

The Rip CurrentThe Life and Death of Booze (with Adam Rogers)Adam Rogers is a science journalist and the author of two amazing books about how we experience the world. His second, Full Spectrum, is about color. But we're here to discuss his first, Proof: The Science of Booze. Not just booze, though — what it symbolizes about magic and alchemy and history and chaos, and why our relationship to it is so fraught and fun and terrible. Basically what I learned is that it would improve the world enormously if everyone had to learn to handle themselves at a bar, but that we somehow need to do it without actually dr...2025-06-2559 min
The Rip CurrentThe Trump Moment is Global (with Bart Bonikowski)Trump's sudden, strange appeal took most political observers by surprise (it broke their necks, frankly), but not Bart Bonikowski. The NYU professor of politics and sociology has been looking at the global rise of populism for over a decade, along with the ideologies and forms of nationalism that help to explain why it's got us all in its grasp at the moment. We talk about the common causes of this weird kind of politics, the most dangerous outcomes it might lead us to, and what the antidotes might be.Readings:* “Ethno-nationalist Populism and the Mobilization of...2025-06-181h 11

The Rip CurrentThe Battle for Your Brain (with Nita Farahany)Duke Professor of Law Nita Farahany has documented the growing industry of companies and devices that try to read your intentions, analyze your mind state, and generally get inside your brain. No, really: in her 2023 book The Battle for Your Brain she documents hundreds of instances in which everyone from employers to authoritarian regimes are hoping to use this stuff on us.

The Don Lemon ShowJacob Ward's Warning | News Vs. PropagandaIn the Trump administration, the line between journalism and propaganda isn’t just blurry, it’s practically nonexistent. The White House is now openly sharing content from hyper-partisan outlets, cherry-picking spin over substance and pushing narratives that serve the MAGA agenda, facts optional.
But here’s the complication: the First Amendment protects it all, from Pulitzer-winning journalists to rage-filled podcasters to TikTok influencers ranting from the front seat of their car.
So how do we separate real reporting from state-sanctioned noise? And what happens when the most powerful office in the country becomes just another partis...2025-05-0712 min

The Rip CurrentUnboxing FascismA beautifully designed bar of soap from Lisbon, Portugal had a lot to teach me about life under dictatorship. From the 1920s to the 1970s, the fascist regime of Antonio de Oliveira Salazar suppressed free expression, leading artists to pour their creative energies into what they could, including the politically acceptable decorative arts. For me, this bar of soap from Claus Porto - it's gorgeous, and you should buy one - is a symbol of how beauty and artistic distraction repackage themselves to survive oppression, and of how societies before us have leaned into decorative art when...2025-03-1410 min
