#1262: Fundamental Attribution Error

April 26, 2020

Adam and Dr. Drew open the show discussing the vast difference in chronicles of people’s lives from their parents’ generation to today from pictures and videos being prohibitively costly vs everyone having a professional still & video camera in their pocket. They then discuss some new numbers coming out of USC that suggest that the number of people in Los Angeles & Santa Clara counties that have been infected with Covid-19 are dramatically higher than previously thought and what that might mean in terms of a return to normal. Adam then tells Drew about a conversation he recently had with Megan Daum and the thoughts he came away from that conversation with.
