The Late Great Show
Welcome to The Late Great Show with Rob Behrens. It’s a Commentary, News and Topics Podcast Relating to the Late Great Western World. This podcast will celebrate the greatness of the Western World, and speak broadly about its history, its contributions to mankind as well as the problems it's currently facing. I try to keep it fun by telling stories, discussing news and politics, as well as using a few sound effects for a little comic relief. The "The Late Great Show" title alludes to the challenges and outright attacks that the Western World currently faces. Are we living in "The Late Great Western World"? I sincerely hope not.

Chaos in the News | Social Manias and the Quest for Unbiased Truth
Welcome back to the Late Great Show. This Podcast episode will cover some important News items. I will also discuss the concept of truth and the problem of bias. I will especially point out how bias can lead to destructive fads, social contagion and mass panic. There are many people today running in circles and shouting "Climate Crisis!". It may be interesting to learn that all scientists possess some level of bias, especially politically active scientists. We all possess biases and seek to confirm our own world views. This is why it is so important the promote free and open speech. Unfortunately, Washington D.C. has been actively coordinating with social media companies to censor certain "forbidden" speech. This needs to stop. I hope you enjoy this episode.
