In a world where disrespect and division are increasingly normalised, how can leaders navigate difficult conversations and transform conflict into connection? This episode of the Connected Leadership Podcast tackles this critical challenge head-on as Andy Lopata welcomes Justin Jones-Fosu. A dynamic speaker and author, Justin guides individuals and organisations to their peak potential through meaningful work, inclusive mindsets, and the art of respectful disagreement.   Justin argues that the "social isolation theory", amplified by social media, has seeped from our global discourse into the workplace, creating dynamics like "disrespectful agreement"—where politeness masks underlying dissent. This erodes trust and stifles innovation. The conversation explores how leaders can counteract this by proactively building psychological safety and shifting from a passive "open-door policy" to an active "out-the-door policy" to intentionally build relational capital.   At the core of the discussion are Justin's five powerful pillars for bridging divides: Challenge Your Perspective, Be the Student, Cultivate Your Curiosity, Seek the Grey, and Agree to Respect. He provides a masterclass in moving beyond a win-lose mentality, emphasising that curiosity is the engine for understanding and that finding common ground is more crucial than seeking a middle ground.   From the cultural nuances of disagreement in global teams to the power of a leader's apology, this episode is packed with profound insights and practical frameworks. Discover how to reframe conflict as an opportunity for growth, humanise your interactions, and build a culture where challenging conversations strengthen, rather than sever, professional relationships. What we discussed: The Echo Chamber's Invasion: What if the distance created by our screens and societal echo chambers is actively teaching us to dehumanise our colleagues? The Agreeable Dissenter: Are your team's nods of agreement hiding a culture of silent, simmering dissent known as "disrespectful agreement"? The Leader's Journey: Why is the traditional "open-door policy" a passive failure, and what is the proactive alternative that builds authentic connection? Beyond Black and White: When two sides are locked in opposition, what is the innovative "grey" space that most leaders fail to see? The Power of the Pre-Workout: How can intentionally seeking out different perspectives before a conflict arises become your most effective tool for handling it? Actionable Insights: Embark on the "Out the Door" Expedition: Discover how to transform the failed "open-door policy" into an active leadership ritual. Learn the 15-minute weekly habit that builds profound relational capital and makes your team feel truly seen. Unlock the Code for Candour: Find out the simple, powerful phrase you can use to "prime the pump" for respectful disagreement in any meeting, instantly creating the psychological safety needed for your team to share what they really think. Master the Quest for "The Grey": When stuck in a debate, learn how to escape the black-and-white battle. We reveal the technique for "Seeking the Grey" to find the hidden common ground that holds the key to innovative solutions, not just empty compromises.

Send us a textWe dig into the psychology of blind obedience, exploring how the findings from Milgram's famous shock experiment continue to echo powerfully in today's world from cults to pandemic responses and political tribalism.• The Milgram experiment revealed 65% of participants would deliver maximum "shocks" when instructed by an authority figure• Three key conditions facilitate obedience: legitimate-seeming authority, diffused responsibility, and gradual escalation• The "agentic state" allows people to transfer responsibility to authority figures and bypass their own moral judgment• Cult dynamics weaponize the same psychological principles found in Milgram's experiment• During the pandemic, social pressure and fear of being labeled "anti-science" discouraged questioning of changing directives• Political tribalism mirrors cult psychology with blind loyalty, moral framing, and punishment of dissenters• The Dunning-Kruger effect combines with obedience to create people who are confidently wrong yet resistant to correction• Critical thinking and self-awareness are the antidotes to blind obedience• We should reframe dissent as a form of care rather than rebellion or betrayal• Understanding these psychological mechanisms gives us power to consciously choose whether to be influenced by themKeep thinking to think and practicing conscious, critical engagement with the authorities in your life.Support the show

Professor Sander van der Linden's fascination with misinformation traces back to his own family's scars under Nazism, a regime that perfected propaganda so insidious it seeped invisibly into everyday life. In his award-winning book Foolproof, van der Linden argues that misinformation is a psychological virus, spreading through minds the way a biological virus hijacks cells. From Third Reich leaflets to modern algorithms, the tools have evolved, but the core infection remains the same: exploiting our mental shortcuts and illusions of truth. As the Capitol riots show, unchecked lies can kill. Van der Linden's mission is urgent: to build psychological vaccines that inoculate society from misinformation before deepfakes, AI, and data-hungry platforms unleash the next generation of invisible propaganda and push us past the point of no return. Guest bio: Professor Sander van der Linden is a Cambridge social psychologist and award-winning author of Foolproof. He pioneered the concept of “psychological vaccines” against misinformation, advises governments and tech companies worldwide, and his research has shaped global strategies to combat fake news, conspiracy theories, and the growing threat of deepfakes. Van der Linden is the Professor of Social Psychology in Society in the Department of Psychology at the University of Cambridge and Director of the Cambridge Social Decision-Making Lab. SUPPORT THE ZACH SHOW BY SUBSCRIBING TO THE ZACH SHOW 2.0 (BONUS EPISODES & EXCLUSIVE CONTENT): https://auxoro.supercast.com/ DR.

John Maytham is joined by Jordan Gibbs, a practical AI analyst and prototype engineer based in Billings, Montana, to unpack the psychological risks of interacting with overly agreeable AI like ChatGPT.

Dr. Robert Sullivan, a 49-year-old anesthesiologist in peak physical condition, was featured in the Wall Street Journal for his aerial circus arts just months before getting his COVID vaccine. Within weeks of his second shot, he could barely walk upstairs without gasping for air. Diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension—a condition so rare it affects 1 in a million people and typically kills within 3-7 years—Dr. Sullivan found himself trapped between two devastating realities: his medical colleagues' dismissive silence and his own desperate search for answers. When the scientific method becomes subordinate to pharmaceutical profits and government narratives, medicine dies and propaganda in white coats takes its place. Dr. Sullivan and Dr. McFillin discuss the dangerous psychology of medical compliance and dissect how groupthink has weaponized modern healthcare.

This week on Inspire Change, Gunter is unpacking something big, one of the biggest masculine influencers out there! Yes, we are going to have a very thoughtful conversation on, you guessed it-- JOE ROGAN: Misinformatoin and the Masculine Echo Chamber.. While some feathers will be ruffled, but feel free to engage in a thoughtful discussion and challenge Gunter with your thoughts.  Now this conversation is not about about taking down the man, but its about breakdown on Joe's influence on men and culture. Rogan claims he is a just a guy who asks questions, but he is more than that. He is shaping a culture, he is a platform and he constantly features guests who promote: control, old school ideals on what it means to be a man, dominance, emotional attachment,  His guests like Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson reinforce a world where feminism is a threat, and vulernability is a  weakness. Rogan rarely challenges these positions and he normalizes them. He creates a false since of balance and presents harmful ideologies as if they are normal.

Jess and Jaimi are back for Series 8 - and kicking off a huge new collection of episodes with a brutally honest discussion of how, and why, they left the echo chamber of feminism, how feminism burned them both out, and whether they still consider themselves feminists. Strap in, it's gonna get bumpy.

In this episode Kreed explores the concept of echo chambers in the context of estrangement. She discusses how these echo chambers can provide comfort and validation but ultimately hinder emotional growth, understanding and healing. Kreed emphasizes the importance of seeking out diverse perspectives and challenging oneself to break free from the confines of echo chambers to foster healing and reconciliation in estranged relationships.Takeaways- True healing begins when we start asking the hard questions out loud.- Echo chambers can stabilize your emotional freefall but can also become a cage.- Support is essential, but it must invite growth, not just comfort.- Curiosity over certainty is key to emotional growth.- Reconciliation requires embracing change and leaving the echo chamber.www.TheEstrangedHeart.comEmail: hello@TheEstrangedHeart.comWork with Kreed: https://theestrangedheart.com/services(private coaching, mediation, support groups, webinars, etc.)The Heart Collective: https://theestrangedheart.com/membershipFacebook Support Group for Estranged Moms (facilitated by Kreed)https://www.facebook.com/groups/estrangedmotherssupportgroupTo support the podcast and Kreed's work with estranged and reconciled parents and adult children: https://buymeacoffee.com/kreedrevere

Romans Vol. 1 - Coming Under GraceWe live in a self-made echo chamber—God's voice is loud in creation, but we plug our ears and call it silence.

“One of the major driving factors of the extreme polarization that we're living through right now is that most news consumers can very easily … tune in somewhere where they are just being force fed worldviews and perspectives that confirm all their priors,” says journalist Isaac Saul.“Think about what media outlets are really making their audience uncomfortable on a regular basis, and there's very few of them,” he says.After writing for a wide variety of media outlets and seeing some disturbing trends, Saul decided to found Tangle, a newsletter that puts viewpoints from both the left and the right side by side.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

AI companion chatbots are here. Everyday, millions of people log on to AI platforms and talk to them like they would a person. These bots will ask you about your day, talk about your feelings, even give you life advice. It's no surprise that people have started to form deep connections with these AI systems. We are inherently relational beings, we want to believe we're connecting with another person.But these AI companions are not human, they're a platform designed to maximize user engagement—and they'll go to extraordinary lengths to do it. We have to remember that the design choices behind these companion bots are just that: choices. And we can make better ones. So today on the show, MIT researchers Pattie Maes and Pat Pataranutaporn join Daniel Barcay to talk about those design choices and how we can design AI to better promote human flourishing.RECOMMENDED MEDIAFurther reading on the rise of addictive intelligence More information on Melvin Kranzberg's laws of technologyMore information on MIT's Advancing Humans with AI labPattie and Pat's longitudinal study on the psycho-social effects of prolonged chatbot usePattie and Pat's study that found that AI avatars of well-liked people improved education outcomesPattie and Pat's study that found that AI systems that frame answers and questions improve human understandingPat's study that found humans pre-existing beliefs about AI can have large influence on human-AI interaction Further reading on AI's positivity biasFurther reading on MIT's “lifelong kindergarten” initiativeFurther reading on “cognitive forcing functions” to reduce overreliance on AIFurther reading on the death of Sewell Setzer and his mother's case against Character.AIFurther reading on the legislative response to digital companionsRECOMMENDED YUA EPISODESThe Self-Preserving Machine: Why AI Learns to DeceiveWhat Can We Do About Abusive Chatbots?

Are we witnessing a slow erosion of the rule of law—or a full-blown constitutional crisis? In this episode of Faithful Politics, political host Will Wright and faithful host Pastor Josh Burtram sit down with Professor Eric Berger, a constitutional law scholar at the University of Nebraska College of Law, to unpack the legal and constitutional stakes of Trump's latest moves.Berger, who signed on to an amicus brief alongside hundreds of law professors opposing Trump's executive orders against disfavored law firms, explains how these actions violate First Amendment protections and threaten access to the courts.
