Dr. Adrian J. Mack joins us in episode 143 of Relate to talk about a wide variety of important issues facing our world today. We discuss the social impact of different cultures and why we must "think beyond disciplines" in order to achieve a more worldly view. We discuss the important of technology on society and why we must educate ourselves in media literacy in a world of misinformation. We also talk about how to make big, academic ideas more approachable in an age where such ideas can often seem much too complex, veiled behind academic jargon.
