In Episode 273 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Scott Galloway. Scott is a professor of marketing at NYU's Stern School of Business, a serial entrepreneur, a prolific media personality, and the author of four books. His most recent book, titled "Adrift," attempts to tell the story of America—from the end of world war two to the present day—in order to understand how we arrived at this precarious moment in our nation's history, the challenges that lie before, and what it will take to navigate those challenges successfully. So that we can emerge from this period with our nationhood and humanity intact. As Demetri has said on this podcast many times, in a democratic society power ultimately rests with the people. It's a cliché, but it's true. When things don't feel like they are working out, we can either throw up our hands and blame somebody else or we can make the effort to engage constructively on the challenges that confront all of us. Today's episode is a roadmap to understanding what some of those challenges are, where they come from, how to address them, and why there are reasons to be hopeful about America and the future of this imperfect experiment that is democracy.
