E131 Hummingbirds, Rushmore, and Mistaken Ideology: What a Week w/Andrew Petiprin
This week, we dive into Wes Anderson's masterpiece Rushmore before covering a misinformation segment that includes art vandalism, a malady called Alice in Wonderland Syndrome, and Heidi Klum's halloween costume. Then we do a close read of Kat Rosenfield's debut piece in National Review and uncover what it reveals about the state of American political polarization today.
