    Is The Medium The Message? with JR

    Is the Medium the Message? In this episode, my friend JR and I have a fun discussion/casual debate about this nearly half-a-century-old question. How do the mediums we use affect the messages we’re trying to convey? And, is the medium itself more important than the message itself? We do our best to cover the subject broadly, chatting about everything from Marshall McLuhan’s concept of *Narcissus narcosis* to the use of advertising to sell cereal sugar (and Red 40) to children. This episode is cross-posted with JR’s podcast, “that’s interesting” a podcast to introduce ideas and spark curiosity.

  2. Critical Consumption

    ١١‏/١١‏/٢٠٢٣

    Critical Consumption

    How do we become critical consumers of media? How does media hijack or amplify critical thinking? What do heuristics and confirmation bias have to do with this? In this episode, I explore the conditions for great or bad critical thinking and how media users can be more analytical about the information we consume. I talk about how political divisiveness in the U.S. is engineered by media masterminds and how digital literacy skills can help. KEEP UP WITH DR.
