About this listen

This episode explores how truth loses ground when appearance becomes the measure of power. From the Renaissance to the age of Fox News, it traces how performance, fear, and repetition reshape public belief. It follows the evolution of persuasion—and the way our minds impose coherence on chaos, binding whole societies to the theater of their own illusions.
