On this episode, Ben sits down with Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Toronto, J.D. Haltigan, to discuss the rise of depression in young adults, weighing factors such as culture, social media, and partisan politics.

Later, Ben discusses a viral moment from Bill Maher’s TV show between Russell Brand and MSNBC Host John Heilemann to shed light on why left-of-center media has a major blindspot and why they have lost the trust of a vast portion of the American public.
