Sen. Ted Cruz Erupts on Reporter's Democratic Talking Points at Border
"I'll share with you the frustration of senator Ted Cruz. He got real fired up. He's at the border, and he got into a one on one with somebody who was challenging him on the Republicans and the and the border. Listen to this. Let me ask you something. Let me ask you something. What rate of alien immigration do we have in 2020? But you have the thing. I asked your question in office. Do you know anything? How long have you been in? I've been in office 11 years now.

You can do it over there. You want to hold a press conference, you can do it over there. How are you? So hold on. I'm going to answer his question. The talking point of the Democrats, which this media reporter happily parrots is gosh, the problem can't be fixed. There's one little problem with that it is an utter and complete lie. In 2020, the last year of the Trump presidency, we had the lowest rate of illegal immigration in 45 years. You ask what have I done? I've championed the men and women of border patrol. A champion securing the border, a champion remain in Mexico, and we turn this problem around and solved it and we went from Joe Biden inherited the lowest rate of illegal immigration in 45 years and the first day in office. He made political decisions to cause this problem. And you should be ashamed of yourself because you're a reporter and you're not reporting facts. You're telling lies.

Rep. George Santos charged in web of fraud, including stealing from campaign to buy designer clothes
"Republican congressman George Santos has been charged in a web of fraud, including stealing from his campaign to buy designer clothes. Santos faces charges of wire fraud money laundering, theft of public funds and making false statements to Congress and indictment states he stole from his campaign and took undeserved unemployment benefits. The Republican household ready took away his committee assignments, majority leader Steve scalise. There is a legal process that charges just came out. We just saw some of them this morning. And so in America, there's a presumption of innocence, but they're serious charges. He's going to have to go through the legal process. But democratic representative Ted lieu says the house can do more if the GOP wants to. The house is not a criminal court of law. The house has its own rules, the house can choose to expel a member. The Republican has already admitted to lying about things from his education to employment, Julie Walker, New York

How Democrats Changed the Game for Supreme Court Nominations
"Left has hated clarence Thomas since the moment George H. W. Bush to his credit, nominated him to go to the U.S. Supreme Court. Now, remember, Supreme Court hearings used to not be very contentious. Used to be 98 nothing and 72 ten kind of boring, you know, okay, great. Passerby. But then the Democrats decided across the Rubicon. The Democrats decided to derail one of president Ronald Reagan's nominees. The great Robert bork. Robert bork should have been on the U.S. Supreme Court. He was an unbelievable writer. He knew the constitution through and through, but they went after him, and they went after him very, very hard. They, not just condemned him, they mocked him. They made him seem like a radical, which he wasn't. He was a thoughtful, reasonable person. And the term borking, a nominee, was born. That you could derail a nomination. And they tried to do this Kavanaugh, by the way, and they were unsuccessful. And basically they were able to consolidate 58 Democrats to 42 Republicans to reject a Supreme Court nominee the first of which in over 50 years to be rejected by the U.S. Senate. Joe Biden was the instrumental person. He was the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee and derailed Robert bork's attempt to go on the U.S. Supreme Court. Play cut one 19. As a nationally known jurist and legal scholar, Robert bork was a mainstay of conservative jurisprudence for more than half a century. Those views fueled a Titanic struggle over his 1987 nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court, a fight that became a seminal moment in altering the process for all future nominees. Bork's Supreme Court confirmation hearings unfolded in September 1987, and heralded a historic struggle over the ideological composition of the federal courts. The judges responsibility is to discern how the framers values defined in the context of the world they knew. Apply in the world we know. Brilliant, Ted Kennedy, who was an evil person. How many times can you say chappaquiddick? Was involved. Joe Biden was involved. The same cabal. They never go away.

Cal Thomas: "Once in a While... I Learned Some Things From Liberals"
"I'm talking to my friend Cal Thomas, and you get to listen. It's kind of crazy. Cal, you have a new book out called a watchman in the night, what you've seen over 50 years reporting on America. We were just talking about Kitty Carlisle Hart. I don't believe she's featured in the book. That's why we're talking about her. Because people will buy the book. And they're not going to hear about kitty Carlos. So now is the time for us to talk about that. But you had the privilege of meeting her and getting to know her a little bit. And she really was kind of one of those iconic New York Grande dames, which neither of us is, let's be honest. Well, that's true. One of the lessons that I've learned over the years, Eric is if you want to get a hearing, you have to not just ingratiate yourself to people of a different political or social persuasion, but actually take an interest in them. It's why I counted people like Ted Kennedy, as my friend, I got endorsements for the book from Henry Lewis Gates at Harvard, a friend of Obama and pat sajak, the host of wheel of fortune. So that pretty much runs the political gamut from left to right. But we spend so much time these days attacking each other and throwing rhetorical bombs at each other. We don't persuade any one of the correctness of our point of view when we label other people and call them names. So I try to take the time to develop relationships with people on what we call the other side, although they're my fellow Americans. And that has opened up a whole new world of communication, listening by them and listening by me. And once in a while, not often, I actually learned some things from liberals.

Floyd Brown Fights Back Against the Evil January 6 Narrative
"Let's welcome back talking to Floyd Brown, the book is counter punch. And unlikely alliance of Americans fighting back for faith and freedom. So Floyd, you were just talking about the January 6th narrative. And I can't get it through my head. How a lot of people that we thought were on our side, some people who were friends of mine still believe the lie, the fake narrative of January 6th, they're not doing a darn thing to help people languishing in D.C. jails. This is as evil as it gets in the United States of America. This was pushed by many Republicans, even some really good Republicans like Ted Cruz, you know, kind of gave lip service to it like, oh yeah, it was terrible things happened. Show me the terrible things. What are you talking about? This nonsense, if this is, in case anybody has read my von off for book, this is the Reichstag fire. This is a government taking advantage of a chaotic situation to demonize their enemies in a way that had never been done in the history of the United States before. So please continue. No, you're absolutely right. And as I was saying, the morning after Tucker showed just a little bit of that January 6 footage. And so we have to realize there are facts and then there are fake facts. And for the last few years, since January 6th, we have gotten nothing but the fake facts. And so Tucker finally was going to show us some of the real facts and what happened. The next morning, you expect Chuck Schumer to go to the well of the Senate and denounce Tucker Carlson. And that lovely nasal voice he has denounced the evils of Rupert Murdoch, but right after him was Mitch McConnell, who did the same thing. And then they were followed by a group of Republican senators, all spouting the same thing, this completely false narrative. And it's as if they don't understand what was going on.

Oliver Darcy: Tucker Carlson Made Sean Hannity Look Like a Moderate
"Here's a clown at CNN He used to pretend to be a conservative Oliver Darcy He already gets it He's got it down He's already he thinks he's noticed the wink and the nod here Check this out Listen He is so extreme I mean the things that he was doing on this program make Sean Hannity look like a moderate I mean it started off more as he was a mainstream conservative figure but he has really been radicalized in recent years and he's also radicalized his audience I mean the things that were promoted on his show used to be what you would see on InfoWars which is that far right company hosted and founded by Alex Jones He was also facing over a $1 billion in legal problems but it was being mainstream to the Fox News audience which is obviously very dangerous And so it's potentially possible that Fox thinks it can get away with some more like Sean Hannity who promotes a lot of conspiracy theories himself but is a little bit more mainstream not as radical as talking Do you understand they had the exact opposite position Just a few years ago when John was backing Donald Trump and a lot of mainstream Republicans were backing Ted Cruz they had the exact opposite position Oh my gosh these other people on Fox are okay but how did he so crazy This is what they do They flipped the script based on who's got raiden

Acquitted Pro-Life Activist Mark Houck Reveals Details of His Trial
"Mark, you talked about this harrowing raid by the FBI, you go to trial. Now, as I understand it, the essential absurdity of the whole situation is that the face act is about protecting women who are accessing, reproductive services, but am I right that this guy was not at the time escorting anyone per se. So no reproductive services were being interfered with by you or your son, talk about how the trial went to just give us a summary and talk about what you felt as you were going through this and what the jury decided in the end. Sure. So you're exactly right. There was no women involved or men at the time of the altercation. The motive was that the government was trying to prove was that beyond a reasonable doubt was that I was trying to stop this man from doing reproductive healthcare work. Now, the face act says that a volunteer escort per Ted Kennedy and when they institute this bill, is that it does not apply to escorts and even people on the sidewalk. It applies to people in the building. So they had to prove in the court to the jury of my peers that this was what my intention was in pushing him. Which was not, of course, because I was a father just protecting my son. So I looked at the trial and advanced the trial as a journey of the stations of the cross. And so when we got to the trial, we were at station ten and it was a strip Jesus was being stripped of his garments. And so I experienced the passion of Jesus very quickly in about four days at the trial. And it was very interesting. Jury selection, almost all the jury members were supportive of a Planned Parenthood when we were doing our pre screening of them. They all seem to support that. So it didn't really seem to be reflective of my peer group. But nonetheless, they were very objective. And they were honest. And they saw it for what it was, that this was just a shove. It happens every day, pretty much on the street of Philadelphia. And the trial was very interesting. We saw that Planned Parenthood destroyed evidence. We saw that the FBI's investigation was very tainted and skewed. And really biased. And so there was a lot of discrimination against me to put me in this situation.

Why are there so many good TV shows to watch right now?
"Why are there too many TV shows to choose from right now? For years, network TV had its classic season ending cliffhangers, streamers and premium cables are rolling out their big guns with shows like Succession. Everything I've done in my life, I've done for my children. And Ted Lasso. Rachel. Oh. Rock can't just say great job. Network TV is going for the ratings. Joyce ng, senior editor of the Hollywood award centric website gold Derby, says streamers and premium cable are looking at the May 31st deadline for Emmy consideration. Obviously, there's TV year round, a lot of great TV year round. But it's very back loaded in the last three months of the eligibility period, like the spring. Some shows like Squid Game premiered in the fall and had to wait about a year to win an Emmy for best series. I'm Ed Donahue

Victor Davis Hanson: Changing the Process, Not the Result
"I think on my show, when I take calls from all over the country, people seem to be as frustrated with the relative silence, the lack of a response from Republican leaders like Mitch McConnell over what we're witnessing, what we're experiencing. You see the usual fighters, the sharp elbowed Ted Cruz's and Jim Jordan's, but one of the Giants of the U.S. Senate, Mitch McConnell, has been practically mom on all of this. Are you as shocked by that as I am? I think their attitude is a concentrating on the personalities rather than the principles. And their way of thinking, the Democrats have relieved them of women of an obstacle, a challenge, maybe even they think an embarrassment, and they're not necessarily upset. And they fail to realize that it transcends, even their loathing of Donald Trump, because if they get away with this and I think they're going to get away with it, then there's all sorts of ramifications that no president will be safe upon retirement. No president will be safe at anything he's done. And each party will try to warp or manipulate the primary selection process of their opponents. We saw with Russian collusion, but this is on steroids. So everything is fair game now. I think Mitch McConnell doesn't quite realize that they're changing the process, not the result, they want the change the result, but they're changing the process. He should speak out. Oh, I know that he thinks they're taking Trump off his hands, so to speak, but they're not doing that. They're destroying the viability of the constitutional system.

A Warning to Democrats for Opening the Flood Gates
"There is no turning back. Am I exaggerating when I say that? I want you to hear one of the serious people behind this prosecution of Donald Trump, who right now, as we speak, is still in his New York residence, Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue in New York City. I was there last night. I talked to a number of people outside. Trump Tower, I talked to a number of NYPD officers, all the cops are with him. I mean, it was remarkable to see all these police officers express support for president Trump. There were a number of people I was actually shocked at all the people in the crowd who are sympathetic and supportive of president Trump. Wasn't a whole lot of Trump hatred outside Trump Tower now. I was there a little bit later in the evening, but I think America is witnessing this, and even if you don't like Trump, you can't like where this is headed. And incidentally, I say this not without any sense of vindication or trying to be mean spirited. He Democrats, you're next. You're next. Because you've broken the seal now. You want to go down this road? Then Republicans are going to have to play this game as well. And if you think people like Jim Jordan and Ted Cruz aren't capable of getting into this kind of fight, think again. You don't think there's conservative judges in America? Don't worry, your time is coming. Because if you're going to play this game, then we're going to have to dance.

The arguments for transitioning away from fossil fuels at speed have never been more compelling. I think the responsibilities of governments to accelerate that transition have never been so acute. It has to be quite radical. It could have been done slowly, but now we are running against time and climate impacts are now not for tomorrow. It's up for today. The role of fossil fuels very now and 2050 is that of a necessary evil. So we have a very complicated relationship with fossil fuels at the moment. It's like your ex partner you want to get rid of them, but they stick around in Africa, for instance, where I live. It's a bit more complicated. I don't think it's fair to poor countries to say you have to be renewable only when the rich countries are doubling down on oil coal and gas. We need to debate when we need that exchange.

There's a lot of rumblings that things are taking a very bad turn for the DA and nobody really knows what's going on. What do you make of all this? Well, it's interesting. So Alvin Bragg, out of the blue, suddenly the indictment is on ice. Can you imagine the faces of the managers at the mainstream media in the newsroom when they learned this was in the last couple of hours that, oh, nothing's happening today. It's on ice again. We told all the grandeurs to sit down at home and not to come in. I mean, the faces on the managers of the libs that run the country's newsrooms. I could just literally see their faces because all they want to do is get Trump, get Trump, get Trump, you know, it almost reminds me Todd of like, remember back in the day like the hostage crisis, day one, day two, you know, Ted Koppel and nightline, day three is Trump going to be arrested in handcuffs. And it's interesting to me because I think Todd, you know, just off the top of my mind is I say to you all the time and to your audience, they don't understand Trump. This guy is in his late 70s.

"To imagine a future so that you can then figure out what the pathways are that you can go and follow to create that future. And the book just is really inspiring in that way throughout. I did want to take us back to a slightly more negative side of things just to bring us full circle. Since we started with your uncanny forecasting of what would become the COVID pandemic ten years ago, I think it's just my obligation to ask you what are you worried about for 2030 or 2032, what is the scenario that keeps you up at night or that you're running simulations about now? That's such a good question. So I would say there is a future scenario that keeps me up at night, but also puts up fire my pants to jump out of bed in the morning. And it's a topic of the social simulation that we just started running this fall and we're running again this year. It's climate migration. And we know every expert looking down the horizon says in the next ten years, 20 years, 30 years, people are going to be on the move more than at any other point in human history. But this doesn't have to be something that is so alarming. I mean, humans have always been a migratory species. We have an opportunity to maybe rethink, reinvent, reimagine. What forms of movement do we want to make safe and legal in the coming decades? How can we be welcoming to people who need to leave whether due to climate change or other emergencies and threats and there are definitely going to be challenges leaving because you have to is never something that we want to happen. But if we can use this as an opportunity to maybe change some things that need to change and to maybe create freedom of movement more as a human right, you know, instead of being so so harshly restricted and to think about what kinds of new productivity and art and cultures and community might make if people are a little bit more on the move. Yeah, well, how important and boy, you know, just thinking about migration in the Ukrainian situation. Just millions of people moving in such a short amount of time. We no doubt have more of that in our future. So I'm glad you're thinking about it. We have a new tradition on the Ted interview. Which is a kind of a bonus question for all of our guests. You may be uniquely suited to answer this question because you think about things like this all the time. But what is the problem or kind of mystery in your field that you are most excited about, but that has not yet been solved? Well, okay, I want to give you two answers. One is really obvious, but it's amazing. It has not been solved yet, which is, you know, what is the long-term impact of futures thinking, right? When people imagine the world ten years out, does it really change how they experience the next decade, the actions they take? There is not a lot of good longitudinal research on this, and it's really hard to get funding to study how to thinking about the future, change people's lives and experiences, you need a, you need an endowment or something. You can need to follow people for at least a decade. And imaginable, I'm sharing anecdotes.

"The play is like, well, how let's invent that we've got a ball on a stick and like that wall over there and maybe the game is you try and throw the ball so that it bounces off here and that is like building the rules as you're playing is it just an amazing cognitive exercise I think and it's just really a rich type of play that schools steadily squeezes out of you. You shouldn't be doing. No, I love that. I mean, it's why I say whenever so we have a new scenario club with the institute for the future where you can come and play with the different scenario every month and one of the things I always say to people is if you don't like the scenario, then change it, right? We try to bring a game designer's mentality if I'm describing a future in which universal basic income works this way or the new Central Bank digital currency works this way and you don't like it because it sounds unfair or you just don't find it realistic. Change it so it feels more like a future you'd want to wake up in or future you believe we could wake up in. And in that way, it goes from games to scenarios to society, right, to life. We can decide to live another way, isn't that the biggest lesson from the COVID-19 pandemic? If we want to, we can change a lot. Real fast. Which opens up the possibility that we can make changes in behavior for other reasons. We're not necessarily locked in a way. And I think that was one of the things about COVID that was interesting and the other thing I was going to say about games recently in my home life I've been I've been playing this game called anno 1800, which is this video game that simulates kind of a trading empire in a circa 1800, incredibly complicated game.

You know, I'm not calling up Nike and saying start manufacturing, sleeping shoes, it's going to be the biggest hit. What we're trying to do is create these really visceral feelings of the world we might wake up and, you know, sometimes we imagine futures that sound alarming and worrisome, and we can start to play with them and think, you know, is there anything I can do today? To try to make the best of it or change it. It does push you into this really interesting kind of storytelling mode where you're like, how do I, how do I create a narrative in which it makes sense that we are wearing shoes in our beds, or whatever the fact that is flipped. And really, it's just, you know, even if none of the features you imagine ever even become remotely real, what we're really doing that's most important is developing that mental flexibility to accept that things could change. And we don't want to get stuck in old ways of thinking. I wanted to come back here because this is, again, one place where you and I have just a lifelong kind of shared interest in this. To me, it is so interesting how much of the history of people inventing the future in various forms. Have revolved around games and play in terms of trying to think more creatively is specifically described under the umbrella of gameplay. And I guess I just wanted to ask a kind of a macro question about that, which is, you know, I'm sure many people listening to this podcast are thinking, well, games are frivolous. Games are silly. If you're trying to do rigorous thinking about the world, that's the exact opposite of games. Games are escapism. Why would you want to use games in this kind of context?

"Part of what we did wrong globally about this pandemic in 2019 and 2020 was a slowness to accept the potential scale and widespread ramifications. Like we just wanted to deny how bad it was going to get. And I think having pre imagined it, if the willingness to imagine, you know, literally what other people were saying, well, this is unthinkable. The idea that we would shuck schools down or that borders would close. All the borders are around the world closing at the same time, literally unimaginable, except if you have previously imagined it, then you're not going to be caught off guard or blindsided, and you're going to notice the changes faster so that you, you personally have more time to adjust and adapt and prepare to help others. It's such an important skill. I mean, imagining things that aren't apparent to us right now, but that might be possible in the future is an enormously important skill and one of the things that you and I over the years we've talked about this in the past is one of our kind of shared intellectual interests. Is this idea goes by a bunch of different names. Sometimes it's called cognitive time travel. I think in the book you call it episodic future thinking as another kind of term for it. But it's this ability that we think humans may have kind of uniquely, which is to project forwards and backwards in time, almost effortlessly. We do it all the time when we daydream, and we plan. To me, it's always been an interesting thing because we don't really measure this ability, but in imaginable, you talk about some kind of specific ways to actually improve this skill. Exercises that individuals can do on their own. It doesn't have to be a giant simulation with thousands of people. So tell us a little bit about those.

"Own your own unconscious posed an existential threat to fiction. And so there's a sense here in imagining this technology that it would be the one thing that could do what the novel has historically done incredibly well. This would take it to a new level when you actually are entering the mind and the experience of being another sentient human being in the world. Talk about that. Yeah, well, I think that when I imagine this machine, what it seems that it would make it so appealing. Like, I would love to review some of my memories. But it's this drive toward authenticity that I think all of us feel if we, as modern people, living in a largely mediated world. And the wish for authenticity is as old as the screen. And I've been thinking about it ever since I read a book by Daniel borsten called the image. All he's talking about is television because there was no mess. That was this big phrase pseudo events, right? These kind of like fake fake events yet. Exactly. And what he talks about is that the events that appear on television are fake. They are made for television, although they feel real, and he talks about things like press conferences, let's say. But the viewer can sense that fakery or that artificiality. And so it leads to a hunger for authenticity and a kind of the beginning of a kind of a little bit of an obsession with authenticity. But then the media tries to satisfy that craving. Through ever greater feats of mediation that feel authentic. But in fact, are not, which leaves the viewer still hungry, and it's a cycle that I think can explain pretty much every media development I've seen up to the present moment. Right up to last night, when I was on the subway with my son and he suddenly took a picture of the two of us, and I said, why are you doing that? And he said, it's this app, and I'm so sorry I forgotten the name. And the idea is that suddenly everyone who's on this app is told, snap a picture of yourself right now. And they don't know when that will come. And they do, and the idea is, it's totally authentic. There's no way to prepare, there's no way to mediate or create the situation you just boom. Tell us where you are. And I thought, oh my God. Daniel borsten. Here we are. So I am interested in exploring this in all kinds of ways and I do in the novel. Some of them really crazy. I mean, there's a guy who's so obsessed with authenticity that he takes to screaming in public to elicit authentic reactions. And there are all kinds of other moments where that idea comes up. But it's really part and parcel of our media diet. One of the things that I think has been a consistent theme of the response to candy house that I share is that the book has an openness to the potential positive side of this technology. Does it surprise you to hear that from readers and critics? Is that how you thought of it as you were writing it or was that kind of an unintended consequence? I think the unintended consequence is whenever I hear anyone describe it as dystopian because for me as a writer, dystopia is not interesting. I'm not excited by it. There's no invitation for me to write fiction that is dystopian. So I'm driven by curiosity and honestly delight. In exploring the lives that I explore. And I would never have written about technology if all I could bring to it was judgment and fear. Because again, it's not that that's not legitimate. And as a parent and a citizen, I do feel worry, a lot of worry about technology, but as a writer, what I bring to it is curiosity. How does it interact with people's lives and what can I do with that that will be fun? That is the bottom line question that I'm always asking, what can I do with that that will be fun? When I see streaming or when my son tells me about an app, when I finally learned what a blockchain was, I thought, what can I do with that that will be fun? Can I use blockchain to write fiction? I'm still asking myself that question. That's my sensibility. And I hope there's a feeling of openness and joy and humor because I just feel like that is what I want to do as a fiction writer. And I'm a journalist too, so I can, if I want to get out there and engage very directly with the culture around me and even offer up opinions, I have another realm to do that. For me, fiction is about confronting the mystery and really honoring the mystery and the complexity of human life. And to do it in a way that is fun. I want to just zoom out one layer here as we get to the end of this amazing conversation. And that is something that we've kind of danced around a little bit, which is really the role of the novel in helping people make sense of technological change. And here, again, I kind of think back to the 19th century tradition as well. I mean, that was a big part of what Dickens was trying to do is make sense of the new reality of industrial lives so much of what the novel was doing at that point is to say, okay, we're going to make this really new experience kind of coherent to you and give you a way of turning it into an understandable kind of story. And I'm curious, is that an important role for the novelist in society still? Well, to me, any work of art is an artifact of the dream life, if you will, of the cultural moment that creates it. And in the end, art is really all we have left. With which to recreate his human history, art is what lasts. And fiction, which is relatively new, certainly newer than, say, the visual arts or sculpture is a particularly narrative artifact of the collective dream life of the moment that makes it. And the reason I say dream life is that it in fiction, there's so much information compressed, but also there's a kind of, it's a symbolic text. And I think the metaphor really holds because all of us dream at night and we create these rich symbolic texts out of the everyday stuff of our lives. And sometimes they're very obvious like I'm late and I can't get there or whatever. But sometimes they're really hard to interpret and make us question what exactly we are thinking about. And to me, that is what fiction does for the cultural moment. And my writing process is all about just trying to let as much of the world around me into the work as I can because to me, that's where the relevance and the value really comes from. And in terms of what role fiction performs, I think it can perform the role of being an artifact that is provoking and well, hopefully entertaining and transporting, but also provoking in the way that a powerful dream can be. And inviting us to ask questions about the moment that we occupy, and I think that we are more and more aware as we become more and more data obsessed as a culture of the need for storytelling. I'm kind of fascinated by the degree to which everyone wants to create a story around everything. But I think that impulse is really reasonable because data on its own is nothing. It's just facts. It's the interpretation of that data that is the crucial element. And that is the storytelling. We are drowning in data, but what part of it are we supposed to be looking at and what are we supposed to be making of it? And that paradox between the inundation of data and the interpretive need to actually make something of it was one of the things I was really thinking about actively as I worked on this book. And the way in which data can describe human behavior in large numbers, but human beings ourselves remain extremely mysterious to ourselves and to each other. And I feel like the job of the novel is to enter that mystery and give us human life in all of its hilarity and complexity and mystery. Mystery is a great place to end on, I think. We have a question on the show that we ask all of our guests, which is, what is the mystery that's still out there, the kind of the unsolved problem in your field or just in society around you. That you're most intrigued to find the answer to. I think that the problem I would like to see solved is the problem of the Internet prompting a cultural psychosis in which people can not distinguish between reality and illusion. You know, my brother was schizophrenic, and we were extremely close. He took his life in 2016 because a lifetime of living with psychosis was so exhausting and so difficult for him that he gave up. He ran out of energy. I find it terrifying and deeply concerning to see a psychosis that is overwhelming the inner lives of lots and lots of people who believe things that appear to be substantiated by fact. That's the nature of psychosis. My brother heard voices in his head, telling him that the things he believed were true. But things that actually are not true, culturally. So the big lie, QAnon, all of that is really, I feel very sympathetic to the people who believe these things. They are receiving information that tells them that these things are true. And yet they are not. That's the definition of psychosis and I don't know how we solve that. Well, this has been a fascinating conversation. So many aspects of your work are just really resonate with this moment and all of the issues that we're all wrestling with. And the work is also just incredibly entertaining and delightful and full of fun at the same time, which is a rare combination. So Jennifer Egan, thank you so much for joining us today.

"Welcome to the Ted interview. I'm Steven Johnson. If you've been following the news from the technology world, you might have noticed that the headlines have gotten a little. Well, strange lately. I mean, one big tech company is convinced that in the next few years, we'll all be moving to someplace called the metaverse, and just down the road from that tech company, another tech company is debating whether they've just created an AI that thinks and feels. And also, people are making and losing fast fortunes by buying and selling digital images of board apes. Now, these are exactly the kind of turbulent developments that we like to examine and understand here at the Ted interview. Usually by talking to scientists or futurists or tech critics who can guide us through these new worlds. But there's another kind of guide that has always been an important resource for societies trying to make sense of sudden change. The storyteller. And today we have our guest, one of the great storytellers of our time. Pulitzer Prize winning novelist, Jennifer Egan. Egan is the author of 6 novels, including a visit from the goon squad, which won both the Pulitzer Prize and the national book Critics' Circle award. Her latest book, a sequel of sorts to goon squad, is the candy house. It's a dazzling alternate history of our present moment. Weaving together threads about virtual reality, human memory, drug escapism, archetypal narrative structures, games, and much more. We wanted to talk to Egan about the continued relevance of the novel, in a world teeming with technological novelty, and how she manages to write books that flirt with sci-fi futurism without falling into the usual dystopian tropes. Jennifer Egan, welcome to the Ted interview. Thank you. So much to talk about. First off, congratulations on the new book, the candy house. There is a lot going on in this book. To me, it's very hard to capture the full range of it, but you're in the middle of a book tour. You must have some kind of standard explanation of what this book is. At least share that with our listeners? Sure, so I think I'll just start by setting up the opening of it, which in a way is where it started for me, which is that a tech, a very successful tech icon who is extremely famous is having a midlife crisis because he has no idea what he is going to do next. What his new idea is. The idea that he's had is I'm positing, basically, social media. He's invented it. And he, but he feels like he's a failure because he can't find the next step. So because he's surrounded by people who just want to please him, as I think famous people often are, he goes in disguise, disguised as a graduate student to a Columbia University discussion group of academics. And he's really just hoping for some sort of new idea to spark him. And he actually finds such an idea. And the idea is that of externalizing consciousness as a way of re accessing one's own memories for a start and revisiting one's own past in a more complete way from a present day perspective. And part of what inspires him to invent this, it's not just what he hears in the academic discussion group in disguise. But a wish of his own to remember the details around a really important event for him and another character in the book, which is that after a night of partying in 1993, they stood next to the east river, all of them at NYU, students, and they talked about the future and then two of them went walk down the river together when swimming and one of them drowned. So Bix was the last person to see these two before that happened. And he wants to remember that morning, better than he does, because, of course, our memories are very scant. If you look at them closely. I mean, if you say, I'm going to remember a day. How much do you remember about that day? A few little moments that you go over again and again. So he wants all of it. And that is really the impetus for the invention, which I then explore from many, many angles as it impacts all kinds of people's lives, often just in the sense of watching people use this machine to view their own consciousnesses or each others, which is another important facet of the machine. And that is, in a way, becomes both the more revolutionary aspect of the machine and also the more controversial aspect. There's an interesting kind of doubling here, which is that the memory he is tracking down this tragic event in the east river is if the reader is actually read your earlier work, this is a scene that actually takes place in goon squad. And so Bix is searching for this memory. And if you're a regular Jennifer Egan reader, you give yourself a remembering this thing that you read, you know, ten years ago in a novel, what was the point at which you decided to build off of the world that was so wonderfully captured in goon squad? You know, in a way, I think that I never really stopped thinking about it. The chapter in which the drowning occurs and you're exactly right, we the readers of that book have actually witnessed this event. We certainly don't need to have done that or remember it to experience the candy house, but that was one of the later chapters I wrote for goon squad. I think it was the second to last one. And it's such a huge event that it felt a little like just having this happen and then walking away from it didn't feel like quite enough, you know, we lose the protagonist of that chapter in the course of the chapter. And so that was one of many things in goon squad that felt not exactly unresolved, but it felt a little cavalier to just leave it as is. I mean, the nature of these books is that we're inside a different consciousness in every chapter. And of course, each person is the center of our own cosmos, really. We are the product of our pasts, our geography, our circumstances, our ethnicity, and so it's inevitable that each one introduces a whole host of experiences and characters that could conceivably be explored. And the drowning was one of those cases. So the two people involved other than the person who drowns, namely Bix and another man named drew, whom we learn a lot more about in the course of the candy house, they are very touched by this event. And I just felt right to take ownership of that and get in there and look at what the aftermath would be like. You were such a formally inventive writer, gun squad famously has this extended PowerPoint sequence in the second half of it. There are a number of amazing, almost magic tricks that you pull off in the candy house. I guess one of my questions to use, at what point in the process do you think

"But giving it up can be really tricky. That's because for many of us, there's a chemical interaction at play. According to neuroscientist Daniel levitin, the moment we switch between tasks, a small amount of dopamine is released. And we experience a tiny thrill, a kind of woohoo moment. So we want to do it again. And again, this neurochemical process feels so good, we can become addicted to it and not even realize it. As levitin puts it, multitasking creates a dopamine addiction feedback loop. Effectively rewarding the brain for losing focus. And for constantly searching for external simulation. And it's that feedback loop that can make it hard for many of us to stop. Multitasking seems to be a bad idea for most of us. It may be linked to depression, anxiety, and chronic stress. And besides, it just doesn't work. When we rapidly switch from one task to another, again and again, we're actually less productive and tend to make more mistakes. But of course, there's exceptions to every rule. Researchers at the university of Utah found that 2.5% of the population may, in fact, be really good at multitasking. And they've dubbed these people super taskers. But if you're not a super Tasker and I most definitely am not. How do you break the multitasking habit? Well, here's a few things that just might help. Number one, make a plan. Prioritize the most challenging tasks on your to do list. You might consider using doctor long's triage approach to identify your green, yellow, red and black tasks. Two, block your time. Stay focused on one task at a time by blocking time for each one on your calendar. Three, eliminate distractions. Distractions are a gateway into multitasking. Get rid of as many of them as you can. Turn off your phone, disable desktop notifications, and find a quiet space where you won't be interrupted. Four. Practice mental discipline. Commit to focusing for at least 30 minutes on each task without switching. This kind of mental discipline can help you break the habit of multitasking. I like to set an alarm on my phone for 30 minutes, where I only focus on doing one thing at a time. So these are the things that I'll be using to perform my multitasking ways. How about you? Do you have a good strategy for breaking the habit? Let me know on Twitter at shoshu MD or on Instagram at.

How will they know if their idea is good for the ted stage if they should even take the steps to submit a great question so i mean i think one thing that we tell people is to think about the difference between a topic and idea so a topic example might be something like we need to fix the opioid crisis. Like of course that's fascinating and most people would agree that. What's the idea within that. So an idea might take that step further like a specific angle that stems from the topic. with a unique message solution or insight so talk idea that actually became a talk from from that topic might be in the opioid crisis.
