If Brett Kavanaugh, Alex Jones, and Mark Zuckerberg had a reckoning, what would they say? Reckonings presents Deep Reckonings — a project that uses deepfakes to take Reckonings in a *fictional* direction, and imagine public figures having a reckoning.

This is the last Reckonings episode for a while, and maybe...the last episode.

How do we cover the communications of a president who lies, especially when those lies can be fatal? The traditional rituals of journalism don't quite work with a president who doesn't tell the truth, so what can we do instead? Reckonings presents Infinite Lunchbox on the topic of how to tackle Trump's lies — aka *post-truth jujitsu*.

How do we change our hearts and minds? What moves us to shift our political worldviews, transcend extremism, and make other kinds of transformative change? That's the $64 million dollar question that gave birth to Reckonings. And that's the question I explore with lessons learned *from* Reckonings -- in this bonus episode with Inflection Point's Lauren Schiller.

Joe Biden stands accused of sexual assault. And the Democratic Party leadership, which had been loud in its support for #MeToo, is suddenly.....silent.

But, is it possible to support Biden's candidacy without abandoning #MeToo? Can we take Tara Reade's allegation seriously while deeming Biden a worthy candidate for president??

He built Facebook’s business model. Then he went on to become the President of Pinterest. And then he realized: he was addicted to his phone. And later: he was complicit in his own – and all of our – addictive relationships with technology.

How does an architect of Facebook’s business model grapple with the impact of what he built? And what is he doing to help us renegotiate our relationship with technology? This is the odyssey of Moment CEO Tim Kendall.

Reckonings brings you Inflection Point’s conversation with Eve Ensler about her recent *masterpiece* of a book, The Apology. In it, Ensler imagines the apology her father never gave her for the abuse he inflicted on her as a child.

Let's take a quick peek behind the curtain on a few things, including the question: where is Reckonings going?

She was sexually abused by her Catholic school teacher, a former nun.

As a young priest, he sexually abused boys in his parish.

Buckle your seat belts for an *uncommon conversation* about clergy sex abuse.

Enormous gratitude to the National Association of Community and Restorative Justice (https://nacrj.org), and to The Gilead Project (https://gileadproject.org) -- a 501(c)3 devoted to healing and preventing sexual abuse.

If the Pope had a reckoning, what would it sound like?
