John Lack has had a front row seat to the development of some household names in media during his four-decade-long career in media. He was Chief Operating Officer of Warner-Amex Satellite Entertainment from 1979 to 1984 where he was mandated to develop cable channels for specialized audiences.

"The Power of Personal Agency: Social Change in 2021 and Beyond"

For more than 15 years as President and CEO of Living Cities Ben Hecht worked to help leaders use proactive measures to combat growing racial disparity, without relying on slow-moving, entrenched policies or the whims of lawmakers in order to make changes in their own cities.

Encore: "The what, how, and the why of science denial." | WGCU PBS & NPR for Southwest Florida


Listen • 29:59
This episode originally aired on December 9, 2020.
Ever since the beginning of the modern concept of "science" there have been people who denied certain things despite evidence that they are true or factual. From evolution by natural selection to human-caused climate change, and more recently things like COVID-19 and mask effectiveness and vaccine safety, some people refuse to believe what scientists and researchers reach consensus on.
We’re exploring why this happens, especially in our modern world, with Dr. Adrian Bardon, Professor of Philosophy and Scott Family Faculty Fellow at Wake Forest University. His current research focuses on the philosophy, psychology, and politics of ideological science denial. His latest book is “The Truth About Denial: Bias and Self-Deception in Science, Politics, and Religion.”
