High Noon

David Marcus – On the Failure of Expertise and How to Revive the Arts


Listen Later

In this episode of High Noon, David Marcus joins the podcast. Marcus is the political reporter for the New York Post and the author of Charade: The COVID Lies That Crushed a Nation. Before becoming a political writer, he was an actor and the co-founder of a theater company.


David and Inez discuss the failure of expertise and institutional actors during the course of the coronavirus pandemic, and the erosion of public trust resulting from unclear instruction and political bias.


Additionally, David enlightens the audience on the institutional forces pushing the arts steadily to the left, and they discuss the disconnect between the audience and an increasingly avant-garde art scene that caters only to a handful of tastemakers, donors, and government grant offices, as well as how to reintroduce universal themes that make art meaningful for a broader swath of the public.
