Yuval Noah Harari

With the election rapidly approaching, Jordan Klepper catches up on the latest stories in the presidential race, including recent polling, JD Vance swimming in a t-shirt, and Dick Cheney's surprising endorsement of Kamala Harris. Plus, as Harris and Trump prepare for their first debate with starkly different approaches, Grace Kuhlenschmidt joins to break down the Republican candidate's "weaving" tactics. Historian and best-selling author Yuval Noah Harari sits down with Jordan Klepper to discuss his new book, "Nexus: A Brief History of Information Networks from the Stone Age to AI." They talk about how people deal with an overflow of information, whether or not AI is an existential threat, the importance of human understanding in bureaucracy, and why there's still hope.
