Description

An increasingly complex world is one that is increasingly filled with scams, tricks, and grifts. deGRIFTify is a discussion podcast intended to cut through some of that haze. Hosts Thomas and Joel summarize contemporary issues by identifying hidden interests, highlighting contradicting narratives, and drawing comparisons between familiar and unfamiliar subjects. ”The cold war of the 21st century isn’t fought with weapons, and it isn’t waged between countries; it’s with information, between people. Whether you know it or not, you’re already a belligerent! Learn how to cut to the core of the issues, sift through the nonsense, and see what each side’s true goals are. And if you think we’re wrong, tell us why. We’ll tell you why we aren’t (unless we are).” - T & J
