Show Notes

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine involves not just kinetic action but also efforts to influence people’s perceptions of what is happening and why, so James Keys and Tunde Ogunlana take a look at how powerful media persuasion and propaganda can be and discuss how the American system is designed to limit this (01:44).  The guys also weigh in on the never-ending debate about breakfast over whether it is the most important meal of the day or completely unnecessary (46:28).
