  • Joel Stein: "In Defense Of Elitism"

    Joel Stein: "In Defense Of Elitism"
    2026/10/26
    Is America divided by more than just politics? In this 2019 conversation, Michael talks with humorist and author Joel Stein about his provocative book, "In Defense of Elitism: Why I'm Better Than You and You Are Better Than Someone Who Didn't Buy This Book." Stein argues that Donald Trump's rise was fueled by anti-elitism and a growing distrust of experts, education, and intellectual authority. From populism to the battle between expertise and gut instinct, Michael and Joel explore what it really means to be an elitist—and whether America still values the people who know what they're talking about. Plus, a hilarious debate over whether Michael himself qualifies as a member of the elite. Original air date 1 November 2019. The book was published on 22 October 2019.

  • Gabe Bullard: "Against Convenience"

    Gabe Bullard: "Against Convenience"
    2026/10/22
    Is all this convenience actually making our lives better—or are we losing something valuable along the way? Michael talks with author Gabe Bullard about his new book, "Against Convenience: Embracing Friction in an Age of Endless Ease." From streaming music and online shopping to rideshare apps and artificial intelligence, Bullard explores how technology designed to make life easier may also be making us more isolated, less connected, and increasingly dependent on algorithms. Have we sacrificed meaningful human interaction in the name of convenience? And is it time to embrace a little friction? Original air date 22 October 2026. The book was published on 15 September 2026. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

    Dr. Peter Gray: "Restoring Childhood"
    2026/10/19
    Are smartphones and social media really to blame for the youth mental health crisis? Michael talks with Dr. Peter Gray, Boston College research professor and author of "Restoring Childhood: How to Set Kids Free in the Age of Anxiety," who challenges conventional wisdom about what's making kids anxious and depressed. Gray argues that the real culprits may be academic pressure, overprotective parenting, and the disappearance of unstructured play. It's a thought-provoking conversation that even makes Michael rethink some of his long-held beliefs about technology and childhood. Original air date 19 October 2026.
