Politics are more polarized than ever, and most Americans are desperate for something different. Spencer Cox, the Republican Governor of Utah, thinks the key to depolarization isn’t changing minds—it’s learning how to disagree with grace. In this episode, Adam and Spencer take a closer look at the deeper issues that underlie America’s political division, and Spencer shares his evidence-based approach to policymaking that puts people before parties. They also offer advice for breaking out of echo chambers, emphasize the value of collaborating with people whose beliefs are different than your own, and break down Spencer’s pro-human AI strategy.
