What the UHC CEO shooting tells us about political violence in the U.S., How to learn from rejection and Festive Cocktails!


Listen Later

Today on AirTalk, on the heels of the murder of the United HealthCare CEO, we've seen a massive trend of glorification of his suspected shooter, Luigi Mangione. We have a professor of political science with us to discuss what this public reaction can tell us about the role of political violence in America today. A new study looks into the effect of social rejection on our brains and we're talking to one of the authors about how we can learn from those uncomfortable moments. For Food Friday, Austin is tasting some festive holiday drinks from Capri Club.
