1 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:05,800 Speaker 1: Imagine there's a place in our world where the known 2 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:13,480 Speaker 1: things go, the stuff everybody knows common knowledge.

For the past 7 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 1: two seasons, I've been down here trying to figure out 8 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 1: what happened to truth and why it seems so hard 9 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 1: lately to know anything at all. I've been tracing stories 10 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:40,159 Speaker 1: about frauds and liars, but this season I wanted to 11 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,960 Speaker 1: meet the good guys. What does a fact start there 12 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 1: amongst your table? And how do you know when something 13 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: is true? Discuss like high school teachers and their students, 14 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: Encyclopedia salesman, and of course public librarians.

That's a 19 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 1: strange topic to spend the evening talking about with the 20 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 1: woman that you're gonna ask to marry you. On a 21 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: week and a half, we'll go back to school talk 22 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: to some brilliant young people who truly care about cleaning up.
