Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory | Podcast on Spotify
You're probably not seeing the world for what it really is. Your beliefs about truth, politics, and even chaos itself are all being challenged by the way information is being disseminated today. What if the chaos that surrounds us every day is actually a ladder, waiting for you to climb it? Sounds audacious, right? That's exactly what my guest today, Shane Smith, co-founder of Vice Media, is here to talk about. Shane is someone who's pushed boundaries in media and has witnessed first-hand the complexity of a world that’s increasingly becoming post-truth. He's a man who’s not afraid to ask the tough questions about politics, media, and the intricate latticework of truths and lies. Buckle up, because today's episode is going to take you on a deep dive into the gritty reality that shapes the narratives we believe in.
