WEBVTT - Introducing Revisionist History Season Three

0:00:15.356 --> 0:00:15.796
<v Speaker 1>Pushkin.

0:00:19.716 --> 0:00:24.476
<v Speaker 2>People's intuitions are that that can't be right and so

0:00:25.116 --> 0:00:27.756
<v Speaker 2>or that it can't be taken seriously. So, Malcolm, you've

0:00:27.796 --> 0:00:29.276
<v Speaker 2>got to get people who take it seriously.

0:00:29.356 --> 0:00:32.596
<v Speaker 3>I take it seriously. I don't think this is wacky

0:00:32.636 --> 0:00:33.156
<v Speaker 3>as at all.

0:00:33.196 --> 0:00:35.916
<v Speaker 1>I read this and I'm thinking this is dead serious.

0:00:37.836 --> 0:00:40.916
<v Speaker 1>I'm Malcolm Gladwell here to tell you about season three

0:00:40.956 --> 0:00:45.876
<v Speaker 1>of Revisionist History from Panople, where I get dead serious.

0:00:47.996 --> 0:00:53.356
<v Speaker 4>School children being poisoned by one of the biggest symbols

0:00:53.916 --> 0:00:57.156
<v Speaker 4>of our modern food. And so that was really the

0:00:57.196 --> 0:01:00.956
<v Speaker 4>sort of the cherry on that rotten cake.

0:01:04.996 --> 0:01:08.196
<v Speaker 1>This season, I want to talk about mass delusion because

0:01:08.236 --> 0:01:11.356
<v Speaker 1>when you're deluded, you don't know you're deluded. You can't

0:01:11.396 --> 0:01:14.596
<v Speaker 1>be reminded or educated. You're oblivious.

0:01:15.156 --> 0:01:18.556
<v Speaker 5>And then the ranking minority member gets up and basically says,

0:01:18.596 --> 0:01:20.836
<v Speaker 5>take your lie in data and go home, because we

0:01:20.876 --> 0:01:22.676
<v Speaker 5>know what the truth is. We're being invaded and we've

0:01:22.676 --> 0:01:23.356
<v Speaker 5>got to stop this.

0:01:24.356 --> 0:01:27.316
<v Speaker 1>We'll meet the victims of mass hysteria and a hero

0:01:27.756 --> 0:01:28.836
<v Speaker 1>who says things right.

0:01:29.316 --> 0:01:33.436
<v Speaker 6>She is a mix of Joan of Arc, Madame Curie,

0:01:33.876 --> 0:01:35.316
<v Speaker 6>and Florence Nightingale.

0:01:36.596 --> 0:01:38.796
<v Speaker 1>But if you've listened to the first two seasons of

0:01:38.796 --> 0:01:42.676
<v Speaker 1>Revisionist History, you'll know that I can't stay serious for long.

0:01:43.276 --> 0:01:45.476
<v Speaker 3>One of the many weird things with that story is

0:01:45.516 --> 0:01:48.276
<v Speaker 3>the notion that you are an OSS officer in Munich

0:01:48.716 --> 0:01:52.116
<v Speaker 3>and you bring along a famous harmonica player.

0:01:53.956 --> 0:01:54.956
<v Speaker 5>What's strange about that?

0:01:55.556 --> 0:01:57.796
<v Speaker 6>It's kind of like a ride along, you know, like

0:01:58.036 --> 0:01:59.076
<v Speaker 6>Kevin Hart and ice Q.

0:02:03.556 --> 0:02:07.876
<v Speaker 1>Revisionist History Season three, join me for the ride along.

0:02:08.196 --> 0:02:09.876
<v Speaker 6>And you're like, You're like, don't you know this is

0:02:09.916 --> 0:02:11.996
<v Speaker 6>the safest time to get on an air community.

0:02:11.996 --> 0:02:14.636
<v Speaker 1>I can be really quite condescending. It turns out.

0:02:16.796 --> 0:02:18.156
<v Speaker 6>It's my favorite thing about you.

0:02:21.756 --> 0:02:25.916
<v Speaker 1>Revision is History, because sometimes the past deserves a second chance.

0:02:26.716 --> 0:02:32.716
<v Speaker 1>Season three launches May seventeenth on Panoply, Subscribe on Apple Podcasts,

0:02:32.836 --> 0:02:34.436
