This episode, we look at why expertise becomes a threat the moment it challenges money, power, propaganda, or a preferred political fantasy. From corporate attacks on climate science and health care oversight to right-wing contempt for universities, public servants, journalists, and medical experts, this episode argues that the problem was never knowledge itself. The problem is independent knowledge that can’t be controlled. It’s not about worshiping experts or pretending institutions never fail. It’s about understanding the difference between healthy skepticism and a political machine that teaches people to distrust anyone who knows enough to say no.
