On today's "Best-of" show, some recent favorites: As part of a year-long series on ways of improving U.S. democracy, Danielle Allen, Washington Post contributing columnist, a political theorist at Harvard University, where she is James Bryant Conant University Professor and director of the Edmond and Lily Safra Center for Ethics and the author of Justice by Means of Democracy (University of Chicago Press, 2023), proposes expanding the number of members of the House of Representatives, currently capped at 435. Peter Grinspoon, MD, instructor in Medicine at Harvard Medical School and author of Seeing Through the Smoke: A Cannabis Expert Untangles the Truth About Marijuana (Prometheus, 2023), discusses how to use cannabis responsibly and the positive and negative effects the drug can have on someone's health. Matthew Desmond, sociology professor at Princeton University, 2015 MacArthur fellow, author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning book Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City (Crown, 2016) and his latest, Poverty, by America (Crown, 2023), draws on research and reporting to make the case that poverty persists in the U.S. (at higher levels than in other advanced economies) because affluent Americans benefit from it. Neil deGrasse Tyson, astrophysicist and director of the Hayden Planetarium at the American Museum of Natural History, a host of the StarTalk Radio podcasts, discusses his book Starry Messenger: Cosmic Perspectives on Civilization (Henry Holt, 2022), a meditation on political and cultural polarization informed by a view "from above."

Neil deGrasse Tyson (@neiltyson) is the Frederick P. Rose Director of the Hayden Planetarium, host of StarTalk Radio, and author. He is kind enough to rejoin us and discuss his latest book, Starry Messenger: Cosmic Perspectives on Civilization. What We Discuss with Neil deGrasse Tyson: The problems society faces when average citizens lose their ability to distinguish between facts and opinions — and how this can be remedied. What some of our dearest opinions look like under the scrutiny of scientific literacy — and why we should feel relief at being proven categorically wrong about some of them. As an educator, what Neil's first urge is when he hears people spreading patently false "information" that can be easily dispelled by basic scientific awareness. (Surprisingly enough, it's not to bop them on the head!) What the history of mathematics might hint about the average human brain's tendency to avoid thinking statistically and probabilistically. Things pondered: Are you a GMO? Eating how many pints of ice cream will kill you? For the benefit of all humanity, who would Neil send into space first? If technology common to us in the 2020s would be unrecognizable to someone from 1990, what will the world look like in 2050? And much more...

A new company recently purchased eighteen Spanish-language stations that will serve ten of the largest Latinx-populated cities in the country. Graciela Mochkofsky, dean of the Craig Newmark School of Journalism, contributing writer for The New Yorker, and the author of The Prophet of the Andes: An Unlikely Journey to the Promised Land (Knopf, 2022), talks about what this means for the Spanish speaking community, plus her thoughts on the state of journalism as she enters her new role as dean of the Craig Newmark School of Journalism.
