Summary:

Mark Crispin Miller taught a course on propaganda for over 20 years at New York University, until merely suggesting his students look into the research regarding the effectiveness of masks in mitigating the spread of respiratory viruses. This led to a backlash that eventually resulted in the course being canceled. How convenient for the propagandists. He joins Tom to discuss the propaganda machine on overdrive regarding both Covid and the Ukraine War.
