3. Corruptible. Brian Klaas.

Terrific blend of political science and psychology. Is a hunger for power born or made? Good or bad?

Why do we keep electing terrible people? Maybe we should stop doing that?

I’ve got a new book coming out!

It’s called FLUKE: Chance, Chaos, and Why Everything We Do Matters.

It’s the most interesting thing I’ve ever written—it drastically changed how I see the world—and I hope you’ll pre-order it. Read what it’s about here: simonandschuster.com/books/Fluke/Br…

From the Glass King to QAnon

A long time ago, a French king believed he was made out of glass. Here's his story, why it matters—and how it can help us understand modern delusions such as QAnon or insane anti-vax theories.

From the Glass King to QAnon 'To better understand modern delusions like or deranged beliefs that contain microchips that enable time travel, we must first turn—perhaps a touch unexpectedly—to 14th century France.'
