- Today we welcome David McRaney. He is a science journalist fascinated with brains, minds, and culture. In 2012, he created the podcast You Are Not So Smart based on his 2009 internationally bestselling book of the same name and its follow-up, You Are Now Less Dumb. David is also an editor, photographer, voiceover artist, television host, journalism teacher, lecturer, and tornado survivor. His most recent book is called How Minds Change.
In this episode, I talk to David McRaney about the science of belief and persuasion. In this day and age of online tribes and echo chambers, changing people’s opinions seems like an impossible task. Instead of arguing over facts, David encourages us to use empathy to understand why we disagree. He explains Piaget's framework behind knowledge building and shares the use of technique rebuttal for sincere conversations.

Love both of your podcasts so much!
Great guest.
David Mcraney has #genius.
No offence but this episode felt like a lot of air. There was a lot of talking without really saying anything. Guest needs to be more to the point and provide clearer insights.
McRaney's podcast is actually really well produced, on point. Don't miss it, even though you found this interview lacking. You won't regret it.
