Host: Cory Short
Join us as we take a deep dive into the undercurrents of the media landscape with radio personality, Matt Mittan. Matt brings a fresh perspective on the media's shift from proactive to reactionary, resulting in an evolution of the public from engaged citizens to mere media consumers. We take on global threats like Putin and North Korea, emphasizing the need for a unified front of opposition. Matt urges us to focus on nurturing our communities as a countermeasure against those with sinister intentions.
We turn our focus to our beloved city, Asheville, to discuss the impact of extreme tribalism and the omnipresence of media. Matt sheds light on how these factors shape public opinion and impede open dialogue. We also touch upon the opioid crisis that looms over our community and the urgent need for sustainable solutions. In this context, we explore the role of Chief David Zeck in the larger narrative of police reform and its potential implications.
As we expand the scope of our discussion, we delve into the legalities of cannabis, the threats posed by AI, and the complexities of border security. Matt argues against imprisoning people for marijuana usage and expresses his concerns about AI developing self-awareness and judging humanity for its deeds. He advocates for stewardship of the earth and a respect for our planet. As we wrap up, we underline the importance of open conversations on pressing issues like homelessness, mental health, drugs, and economics. We invite you to lend us your ears for this thought-provoking discussion with Matt Mittan.
