Episode 379: Kat Timpf: Breaking Binary Thinking and Cancel Culture + Promoting Nuanced Political Discourse


Listen Later

Is binary thinking dividing us more than we realize? In this Habits and Hustle episode, I talk with Kat Timpf, a political commentator, comedian, and author of the upcoming book "I Used to Like You Until: How Binary Thinking Divides Us." 

We discuss Kat’s unique perspective as an independent thinker working at Fox News, challenging the notion that we must rigidly align with one side or the other on every issue. We also dive into Kat's personal journey from a strict Catholic upbringing to her current role as a political analyst, her experiences with binary thinking both on the left and right and her thoughts on overcoming tribal instincts in our polarized world. 

Kat Timpf is a multifaceted media personality, serving as co-host of "Gutfeld!" on Fox News and a Fox News analyst. She's the author of the New York Times bestseller "You Can't Joke About That" and has written for various publications including National Review. Known for her libertarian perspective and use of comedy in political commentary, Kat has been recognized on Variety's New Power of New York list in 2023. She believes in the power of conversations to bridge political divides and connects with audiences nationwide through her sold-out comedy tour.
