What Ails the Left?

This week, Shadi and Sam sat down with Jonny Thakkar, an Assistant Professor in Political Science at Swarthmore College and one of the founding editors of the invaluable The Point magazine. In a recent essay in The Point, Jonny argues that the left's organizing framework — reducing injustice and pursuing equality — is inherently negative and distributional, and therefore fails to inspire the kind of longing that drives political movements.This is a topic that we've chewed over frequently here at Wisdom of Crowds. The conversation goes on to weigh whether liberalism can offer a genuine vision of the good life or whether it is structurally committed to a neutrality that empties politics of meaning. The group debates Rawlsian liberalism, Marx's notion of human capacities, the appeal of the tech right's futurism, as well as religion, autonomy, and whether the loss of a pre-modern sense of cosmic order is recoverable.The episode ends without a tidy resolution, but with a shared sense that any politically viable vision of human flourishing must grapple seriously with what a good life actually looks like — not just what a just distribution of resources resembles.Required Reading:* “Beyond Equality,” by Jonny Thakkar (The Point).* “Last Boys at the Beginning of History,” by Mana Afsari (The Point).* Abundance, by Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson (Amazon).* Ross Douthat's interview with Sen. Chris Murphy (NYT).* The Grasshopper: Games, Life and Utopia, by Bernard Suits (Amazon).* Laura Field interviewed by Sam and Christine (WoC). This is a public episode.

This week, Shadi and Damir hosted Cameron Kasky — a rising young activist in the Democratic Party and former congressional candidate for New York's 12th District — who gave us a glimpse into where American politics might be headed. Cameron started his career as a gun control advocate after surviving the Parkland shooting. For his efforts, he was named one of TIME's 100 Most Influential People in 2018. He has since become a passionate advocate for the Palestinian cause, especially so after Gaza. We recorded this episode a day after Marco Rubio caused a furor by suggesting America's decision to attack Iran was shaped by the fact that Israel might do it without us anyway, leaving our assets in the region dangerously exposed. With increasingly hostile young MAGA voices convinced that Israel holds undue sway over American foreign policy, we discussed how Democrats see a path forward.The conversation got heated at times — Damir goes incandescent over Epstein, Shadi frets about entrenched Democratic leaders not reflecting voters' preferences — but it's an important episode very much worth your time. American politics is changing before our eyes, and anyone thinking we're going back to the way things were after Trump has another thing coming. This is a public episode.

Damir, Shadi and Christine discuss the latest wave of worrying data about young adults' retreat from dating, sex, marriage and parenthood. Shadi lays out the big numbers — projections that a large minority of young Americans may never marry and a substantial share may never have children — and ties them to two worries: widespread loneliness (especially among young men) and long-run national capacity in an era of low fertility and reduced immigration. Christine agrees on the economic and political downstream effects but keeps returning to more normative questions: is a prosperous but degraded society worth saving? The conversation swerves (as it tends to) into the subcultures forming in the vacuum: the looksmaxxing/manosphere influencer “Clavicular,” who embodies male energy redirected inward — away from courtship and community and toward obsessive self-modification and performative detachment from women. Damir pushes an uncomfortable adaptation thesis: maybe this is simply what “winning” does to advanced societies, whether we like the aesthetics of it or not.Required Reading:* “The truth about population decline,” by Martin Wolf (Financial Times).* “Get Married Young,” by Brad Wilcox (Compact).* “1-in-3: A Record Share of Young Adults Will Never Marry,” by Lyman Stone (Institute for Family Studies).* The Human Flourishing Program's “Flourish” measure (Harvard IQSS).

Is Artificial Intelligence actually helping cancer patients, or is it just noise? In this episode of The Patient From Hell, Samira sits down with Dr. Shadi Nabhan to separate the Hype from the Reality in 2026.We discuss the massive evolution in oncology—from the "library days" of 1995 to the AI-driven diagnostics of today. Dr. Shadi shares his "Airport Analogy" for navigating a cancer diagnosis, offers a life-changing reframe on how we view advanced disease (it's not just "curable" vs. "terminal"—it can be "controllable"), and gives his #1 piece of advice for selecting a medical team that will actually show up for you when things get hard.Key Topics Discussed:AI in 2026: How doctors use AI to simplify complex terms like CAR T-cell therapy and why patients need to "trust but verify" AI-generated medical advice.The "Controllable" Reframe: Why treating metastatic cancer like diabetes or hypertension changes the patient experience.Navigating the "Airport": Why the healthcare system feels like being dropped in a foreign airport without a map.Advice for the Industry: What Healthcare Systems and Pharma companies need to change right now regarding clinical trials and drug pricing.About Today's Guest Dr. Chadi Nabhan:Dr. Chadi Nabhan is a board-certified hematologist, oncologist, and the Chief Medical Officer at Ryght, Inc., where he leads the integration of Generative AI into clinical research to accelerate the delivery of lifesaving therapies. With a career spanning leadership roles at Caris Life Sciences and the University of Chicago, Dr. Nabhan is a prolific researcher with over 300 publications and a prominent author whose work focuses on the intersection of medicine, justice, and technology.AI Visionary: Leading the charge in using AI to optimize clinical trials and patient outcomes.Expert Clinician: Trained at Northwestern and Harvard, with decades of experience in malignant hematology.Renowned Author: Published three books with Johns Hopkins University Press, including The Cancer Journey and the forthcoming AI and Cancer Care (2026).Podcast Host: Voice of the popular weekly series Healthcare Unfiltered.Quotes from the Episode:"We cure more patients than we have ever dreamt of...

American Exceptionalism on Trial

This episode features a full-length debate between Shadi Hamid and Trita Parsi —two thinkers who fundamentally disagree about the role of American power in the world. Released jointly with The Disagreement podcast and hosted by Alex Grodd, the conversation reflects a shared Wisdom of Crowds ethos — one that treats disagreement not as a failure of understanding, but as a tool for thinking more clearly about first principles. Rather than trading talking points, Hamid and Parsi engage each other's strongest arguments in a sustained, good-faith exchange.Shadi draws on themes from The Case for American Power to defend a position that has fallen out of favor across much of the political spectrum: that American power, when used with moral purpose, can still play a necessary role in reducing global suffering. His argument is aimed in part at a disillusioned left that has come to see U.S. power primarily as a source of harm rather than a potential instrument of humanitarian good. Against this, Trita — one of the most incisive critics of American interventionism — offers a sustained challenge, grounded in historical failures, unintended consequences, and the limits of even well-intentioned power.Does the world need the United States to act, and if so, when — and at what cost? How should past disasters constrain present ambitions? And if American power is curtailed, what realistic alternatives exist, and who bears responsibility when things go wrong? This debate doesn't resolve those questions — but it models what it looks like to take them seriously, in conversation with someone who sees the world very differently.Required Reading/ Listening: * The Disagreement podcast. * Shadi Hamid, The Case for American Power.

Today we're trying something new on the show –  it's a different kind of book review, where we have a healthy disagreement around the core arguments made in a recently released book. The book is The Case for American Power by Shadi Hamid, a columnist for the Washington Post and host of the Wisdom of Crowds podcast. It's a fascinating read – Shadi makes a case that you don't hear very often: that America should be using its power for moral and humanitarian ends. It's a broad-based appeal but also a specific appeal to those on the left who have become deeply skeptical and disillusioned with American power. So to offer a critique we have brought on someone who is deeply skeptical of American power. Trita Parsi is an Iranian-Swedish-American political scientist, author, and foreign policy expert and is currently the Executive Vice President of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. It's a thought-provoking conversation and serves as an excellent follow-up to Shadi's previous appearance on our show in April 2024, when he discussed American Power and the role that the United States should be playing on the global stage. The Questions: Does the world need America to use its power to decrease global strife? To what extent and in which circumstances? How do we reconcile past American foreign policy failures with a continued interventionist stance? What are the alternatives to American Power and what gives us reason to believe? The Guests Shadi Hamid is the host of the Wisdom of Crowds podcast, a columnist at The Washington Post, and a senior fellow at Georgetown University's Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding. Previously, he was a longtime senior fellow at the Brookings Institution and a contributing writer at The Atlantic. Hamid is the author of several books, including The Problem of Democracy and Islamic Exceptionalism: How the Struggle Over Islam is Reshaping the World. Trita Parsi is the co-founder and executive vice president of the Quincy Institute. He is an award-winning author and the 2010 recipient of the Grawemeyer Award for Ideas Improving World Order. He is an expert on US-Iranian relations, Iranian foreign policy, and the geopolitics of the Middle East. He has authored four books on US foreign policy in the Middle East, with a particular focus on Iran and Israel. He has been named by the Washingtonian Magazine as one of the 25 most influential voices on foreign policy in Washington DC for five years in a row since 2021.

Amidst the enforcement of speech codes, reactionary backlash, and an uptick in political violence, debates about the future of the First Amendment have taken center stage. Various ideological factions have emerged, emphasizing the need for speech to be free, ethical, or true. But what of the need for speech that is meaningful, that inspires profound thought and contributes concretely to the common good, and that is—in the least—genuinely interesting?As a platform dedicated to rising above the discord in today's divisive, self-serious discourse by prioritizing matters that transcend the merely ideological, Cracks in Postmodernity has highlighted Mana Afsari's writings about her encounters with the “sensitive young men” drawn to MAGA, which shed light on those who are fed up with groupthink and conformism, and who are in search of a space for intellectual vitality; and Shadi Hamid's frankness about his shifting attitude toward the American project, from his outright skepticism toward attempts to import the glories of American liberalism abroad, to his more recent embrace—albeit a measured one—of American dominance as “the world's best hope.”Shadi and Mana joined us on 12/11 for our first-ever event in Washington DC to discuss the future of American public discourse.

Philanthropy plays a uniquely critical role in climate action—it can fund the bold, early-stage, community-led, and systems-changing work that markets and governments too often overlook. And with the federal government cutting funding to a wide range of climate, energy and conservation efforts, philanthropy plays a more important role than ever before.That's why we're teaming up with the Skyline Foundation and their Climate Lead, Shereen D'Souza on a series of conversations on climate philanthropy.Over the coming episodes, we'll explore how philanthropy can accelerate climate solutions—not just by moving more money, but by moving it differently and to high impact topics and geographies. We'll talk to leaders who are rethinking power, reimagining partnerships, and reshaping the way resources flow.Today, we're starting with a conversation that sets the tone for the entire series: trust-based philanthropy. What does it look like to fund climate work in ways that are long-term, rooted in real relationships, and prioritize the expertise of grantee organizations? How can funders shift from control to collaboration, and what happens when they do?Shereen and I are joined by Shaady Salehi, Executive Director of the Trust-Based Philanthropy Project. Shaady has been at the forefront of this movement, helping foundations transform their practices and support grantees with more transparency, humility, and flexibility. We talk about Shaady and Shereen's backgrounds in philanthropy, what trust-based philanthropy is and how it can help non-profit partners be more effective, why it's relevant to Skyline Foundation's approach and ways other donors can learn more.

Shadi Hamid on the Case for America

Wisdom of Crowds

This week's episode is a live recording of Wisdom of Crowds, where we celebrated a very special occasion: the publication of Shadi Hamid's new book, The Case for American Power. The book is a soul-searching study about American power as a force for good in the world, and it combines memoir and foreign policy analysis. Shadi's thesis is that if we want to make the world “more just and more moral, more democratic and more respectful of human rights,” then backing the United States is both the “last best hope and the least-bad option.”Joining Shadi Hamid and Damir Marusic is special guest Matt Duss, former foreign policy advisor to Bernie Sanders, executive vice president of the Center for International Policy, and co-host of the Undiplomatic Podcast. “I am certainly not against the idea of American power,” says Matt. But his question is: “Which America?” Duss is less optimistic that US power can be put to good use because, he says, we are currently having a national debate about “what is the nature of the American project.” It's unclear how that debate will end.Nevertheless, Shadi argues, American democracy, however imperfect, is still superior to the regimes in the other global hegemons, Russia and China. We should not fear our own home — oikophobia is a real issue, Shadi says, using the term for “fear of one's home,” the opposite of xenophobia. Duss partially agrees, but says that being a democracy does not necessarily imbue American foreign policy with moral authority. “International law does that.” The topic of international law prompts Damir to steer the conversation towards the topic of Gaza. Does American collaboration with Israeli war crimes disprove Shadi's thesis? Or does it paradoxically strengthen the argument that the world needs morally-guided American power?
