About this listen

In this episode, Kale and Steve explore the overwhelming nature of information in today's digital age, discussing the implications of disinformation, the role of AI, and the philosophical underpinnings of reality versus illusion. They delve into the recent Epstein document dump as a case study in information overload, the challenges of navigating a landscape filled with both organic and disinformation, and the historical context of these issues. The discussion also looks at Plato's cave and the Matrix as metaphors for understanding our perceptions of reality.
