Episode Summary

Welcome to the very first episode of Vet the News.

Like a lot of you, I’ve felt frustrated by the constant cycles of outrage and the superficial arguments that dominate our social media feeds. I'd like to create a space where we can try to move past the soundbites and actually understand the reactions to the news we consume. This episode lays out why I want to start this show, the philosophy for the podcast, and how we might start to find a better way to talk about the world together.
