philosophy at the University of New England. The crew take a deep 
dive with Professor Smith into his area of expertise - dehumanization. 
They talk about how he got started studying dehumanization, how it 
arises, how it leads to genocides and other atrocities, and how it relates 
to our ongoing epistemic crisis (or, as we like to call it, "our sense of 
collective reality crumbling"). This is an eye-opening interview about a 
topic that everyone has heard of, but not enough people study, and it 
gives some language for how to talk about things happening right now.

 AND the Patreon now has new tiers, which feature some actual 
merch! Stickers and shirts! Please subscribe and rate the show if
