Summary

Link to preorder How Minds Change and get your preorder bonuses: https://www.davidmcraney.com/howmindschangehome Deliberation. Debate. Conversation. Though it can feel like that’s what we are doing online as we trade arguments back and forth, most of the places where we currently gather make it much easier to produce arguments in isolation rather than evaluate them together in groups. The latest research suggests we will need much more of the latter if we hope to create a new, modern, functioning marketplace of ideas. In this episode, psychologist Tom Stafford takes us through his research into how to do just that.Show notes at: http://www.youarenotsosmart.comPatreon: http://patreon.com/youarenotsosmart

0:00.0	pre-order bonuses. If you pre-order how minds change my new book, which comes out June 21st,
0:06.6	2022, you get bonuses. I take it to a live event, a two-hour video, and all sorts of other stuff.
0:13.2	I'll tell you all about it in a second. I just wanted to say that up front in case you skip ahead.
0:17.5	I totally understand. I often skip ahead these things at the beginning of podcasts.
0:21.6	And there's a link in the description of this episode to all of the things over at the website.
0:26.5	It's all at davidmacranie.com, D-A-V-I-D-N-C-R-A-N-E-Y. And if you go there, you can just right now
0:33.7	read the introduction in the first chapter. There are links to all this stuff right there on the
0:38.0	front page. But if you're still with me, well, that's kind of the point. If you're still with me,
0:43.0	I just want to say, you know, thank you. So many of you have been with me for many years.
0:50.0	People who are listening to this podcast. I've met many of you in person. I've spoken to you over

1:01.1	how much I appreciate all of your support. So thank you. Thank you very much for making it

1:12.8	the values of the show, this book is really the ultimate expression of all that. And I just can't
1:19.2	wait for you to read it. Honestly, I can't wait for you to read it and tell me what you think about it.
1:24.0	The reason you probably hear authors talk about pre-ordering all the time is that in that world,
1:29.2	the world of book publishing, pre-orders are huge. They're so, so important because it's the biggest
1:35.3	way to support an author because the first week's sales determine everything. They determine
1:40.4	what lists it goes on. They determine if bookstores decide where they're going to get it for one
1:45.8	thing. And also where they're going to put it in the store, airports, all of it. Those first week
1:49.9	sales are huge and pre-orders all get lumped into those first week sales. So pre-order bonuses
1:56.2	are something I thought I would like to offer if I was going to ask you to do this. If you've pre-ordered
