A conversation between Dr. Gleb Tsipursky and two hosts from "Fermenting Opinions" podcast, one from the right and another from the left, about the Pro-Truth Pledge. Fermenting Opinions is a podcast hosted by David Popiden and James McVeigh. David works in special education and leans left politically. James is an attorney who leans right and identifies as a Libertarian. It is the mission of Fermenting Opinions to promote civil discourse in political debate in an attempt to bridge the political divide that is currently plaguing the United States. To promote this mission, Fermenting Opinions utilizes a traditional interview format that presents questions to guests from both sides of the political aisle. In essence, as David tells us at the start of every podcast, Fermenting Opinions is the podcast in search of a more palatable political ferment.

Gleb is amazing.  His passion is unequalled and his knowledge is unsurpassed.  I just loved this interview so much, it hurt to have to chop it into parts.

Help fight lies in politics, and other life areas, by taking the Pro-Truth Pledge (PTP) https://www.protruthpledge.org/ and sharing about it with other folks you know. The PTP was created by a group of social scientists led by Dr. Gleb Tsipursky: http://glebtsipursky.com/about/ The purpose of the PTP is to change the incentive structure for public figures, establishing rewards for truth-oriented activities and penalties for sharing misinformation. It targets politicians and other public figures, with the intent of committing them to spreading accurate information as informed by behavioral science research. Another goal is to get ordinary citizens to take the pledge, and advocate for others and especially public figures to sign the pledge, as well as monitor them for violations.The pledge clearly defines misinformation, for example as going against reputable fact-checking sites or the scientific consensus. Public figures get substantial rewards for signing the pledge, in the form of positive media and public recognition. However, there are substantial penalties for public figures who share misinformation. If they are caught doing so by PTP advocates, and refuse to retract their statements, they get penalized with significant negative media and public pressure. You can read more about how this would work in the FAQ section of the PTP website: https://www.protruthpledge.org/So take the pledge, become an advocate, and spread the word!Please express your thoughts on the podcast through leaving comments, clicking Like if you like it, and if you do like it, Follow us!
