Council of the Canceled

The scientific method—and the very notion of "expert consensus"—once thrived on fearless inquiry and open debate. In the US today, dissenting ideas are systematically silenced, stifling progress and threatening trust in our institutions.

Nicole Shanahan is joined by Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, Stanford professor and co-author of the Great Barrington Declaration; Eric Weinstein, mathematician and creator of “Geometric Unity”; and Mike Benz, a leading advocate for internet freedom.

They explore the fragile state of free speech, and the weaponization of “cancellation” to enforce conformity.
