Co-Host Jack Schafer (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/truth) Couldn't we use just a little truth nowadays? It's simultaneously frustrating and yet one of my favorite subjects. So who better than my returning guest Jack Schafer to talk about how to get to the bottom of things in this day and age? After all, not only did Jack work as an FBI interrogator for years, he has literally written the book on how to detect truth. So to get started, I ask Jack if we're less truthful overall as a culture nowadays, or is it simply that the proliferation of media and social media makes it seem that way? What is up with people who back down from the truth even in the face of a lie? And what is 'Insta-win', as Jack calls it? How does the press use the concept of 'primacy' to influence how people perceive truth? What is going on with our education system that's directly influencing a 'truth avoidant' culture? And how are universities actually making it worse...even when they're supposed to be teaching young people how to think? Could it be true that it's actually easier to find real truth in developing countries rather in the so-called 'First World'? And of course, there's no more important place for truth than in our relationships with women. Why is it so hard to get to the truth when dating and relating? What can we objectively do to be part of the solution instead of the problem? How can we get more truth in the workplace...with our co-workers and even our bosses? Why are people in general often more comfortable with the lie than the truth these days? Get all the truth you can handle when you visit https://mountaintoppodcast.com
