Is it possible to agree on anything anymore (well, besides getting rid of Daylight Savings)? What are the underlying causes for the symptoms outlined in Part 1, and what do institutions have to do with any (or rather all) of that? It turns out we're in the midst of a perfect storm, a confluence of highly disruptive transitions that compound each other and amplify... well, everything. Join Brad and John as they walk through 3 Macro Disruptions contributing to our present liminality (Social Media, Generational Turnover, and Economic Disillusionment) and explain how they are directly contributing to a rise of Viral Ideologies and Anxious Systems.

We also learned that if you want to see Brad lose it, just ask him if the invention of social media is anything like that of the printing press.
