Microchips in our vaccines, stolen elections, climate change denial--in the face of a bewildering range of misbeliefs that stem from mistrust of informational sources, exposure to misinformation and disinformation, and partisan polarization, it's easy to dismiss those who disagree with us as "delusional", "psychotic", or merely "ignorant". But what if none of these judgments are supported by how we really come to believe things, and the truth is that we are all prone to false beliefs? What can we do to protect ourselves in this post-truth world? In False: How Mistrust, Disinformation, and Motivated Reasoning Make Us Believe Things That Aren't True (Oxford UP, 2025), psychiatrist and clinical professor Joe Pierre invites readers to journey with him through the normal quirks of brain functioning--such as "heuristics", cognitive biases, motivated reasoning, cognitive dissonance, and bullshit receptivity--that create the cognitive vulnerabilities to false belief innate within us all. With a cross-disciplinary approach, False illuminates the psychology of false belief that lies at the root of contemporary media mistrust, science denialism, and political polarization, and highlights that contrary to popular opinion, deficits of intelligence and mental health are usually not to blame. With a refreshingly unbiased lens, Pierre suggests an antidote to false beliefs and makes the case for softening our convictions, viewing our ideological opponents with compassion, and mending the rifts in our relationships as individuals and societies alike.

Why does a lie travel around the world while the truth is still lacing up its boots? In all areas, not just politics, science, and medicine, outrageous or fascinating false information outpaces truth, which is often more nuanced. False narratives pose a real danger to democracy, to our health, and to society. This series will discuss the reasons for that destructive state of affairs and what we can do about it, as individuals and as a society. In this first part of our series, Dr. Joe Pierre, health sciences clinical professor at UCLA and specialist in delusional thinking and conspiracy theories, will discuss the age-old psychological reasons that conspiracy theories and other false narratives have been successful throughout human history. He will also look at how false narratives have been noticeably empowered and accelerated during the past few years by COVID isolation and modern technologies, among other factors. Also look for the next events in this series, which will use the insights from this event to discuss how we can reach out to a friend who has become ensnared in a conspiracy theory, and actions we can take as individuals and as a society.MLF ORGANIZER Eric Siegel Note: This program contains EXPLICIT language SPEAKERS Joe Pierre M.D., Health Sciences Clinical Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences, David Geffen School of Medicine, UCLA.

Lisa's Adventure Club: Carlsbad Caverns (0:00:00) It's time to pull out your spelunking gear, because we are taking you to Carlsbad Caverns National Park as part of our series on the National Parks. This natural treasure lies in the Chihuahan desert of New Mexico. And, it is truly a wonder for hikers and explorers alike. This is a place you might be interested in taking your family for a summer adventure. So here to guide us through the park and the activities available to visitors is Angelina Guerra. She is a park ranger at Carlsbad Caverns. Purging Your Kid's Closet (0:15:20) It's been a while since you looked inside your child's closet. So, you muster up all your courage and open the door. There are shirts and pants on the floor, hangers bent this way and that, and there might be something moving on the floor. It's time to purge your child's closet. Joining us today is Gina James, mother, educator, and my know-it-all little sister. She's here to share all the secrets to properly purging your child's closet and room. The Imaginary King that Changed Europe (0:33:14) It's pretty easy to feel ridiculous after realizing you were wrong about something so obviously made up, but at least you didn't believe in it for 400 years. Back in the middle ages royalty in Europe made many important political decisions based on the myth of an imaginary king. Here to tell us about the story is Matteo Salvadore. He's an associate professor of history at the American University of Sharjah and TED talk educator. Conspiracy Theories in a Crisis (0:52:44) Area 51, bigfoot, Tupac—we've all heard a few conspiracy theories in our lifetimes, gotten a good chuckle out of them, and then put them to bed. But this dismissal of conspiracy theories is not a universal reaction and there are many people who firmly stand by certain ones—especially right now during the pandemic. In fact, conspiracy theories have a tendency of popping up during crises. Remember 9/11 and all the conspiracy theories that followed that tragedy? To learn more about conspiracy theories and why they flourish during societal crises we invited Joe Pierre, a Health Sciences Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. Mini Book Club: Parent/Child Relationships (1:08:26) Rachel Wadham, of BYU Radio's Worlds Awaiting, talks with Lisa and Richie about the best books that feature parent/child relationships. SpaceX Launch (1:21:13) Brandi Dean, Public Affairs specialist at NASA, talks with Richie about the recent SpaceX launch to take American astronauts to the International Space Station. Finding Authentic Tacos (1:33:01) When you hear the word “magic,” what comes to mind? Fairy dust, unicorns, diet coke? Those might all make it on the list. But what actually comes to my mind first, and I imagine to the mind of many people, are tacos. Now I'm not talking about your fast food, 99 cent tacos; rather, your spicy, authentic tacos that you wash down with a crisp Coca-Cola. Today we have Raul Ortega, the owner of Mariscos Jalisco, L.A.'s repeatedly top-rated taco shop, here to tell us what makes a taco authentic and how to find the best taco shop wherever you live.
