Jason Hartman talks with Erik Fogg, author of Wedged: How You Became a Tool of the Partisan Political Establishment & How to Start Thinking for Yourself Again, as well as Chief at ReConsider and co-host of the ReConsider podcast, about the discourse in our society that is causing all of us problems that are being perpetuated by people who deal in fear.

[11:51] The most dangerous thing for us individually is to start letting our emotional response drive our reaction
