Vulnerabilities in the Human Condition.  The host for this show is Stephanie Dalton.  The guests are Jay Fidell and Tim Apicella.  

Our panel discusses the social psychology of propaganda and social media, and the human frailties and vulnerabilities that make us susceptible to propaganda and demagoguery, how Putin has learned to use it to affect public opinion and enhance his power in Russia, even to justify genocide, how Trump has learned to use it to affect public opinion and enhance his power in the U.S. even to justify insurrection, how these influences are likely to continue, and what can be done to reverse them.
