Fix Your News Diet NOW (Before It Breaks Your Brain) | John Avlon (PT. 1)

How do you stay informed without losing your mind? In this episode, Ryan sits down with journalist and historian John Avlon to discuss how to fix your “news diet,” why local journalism matters more than ever, and what studying Lincoln can teach us about leadership, empathy, and navigating chaos. They talk about Lincoln’s surprising use of humor, the ways history repeats itself, and what it really takes to stay sane in today’s overwhelming media world.

John Avlon is an American journalist and political commentator. He was a senior political analyst and anchor at CNN, and was the editor-in-chief and managing director of The Daily Beast from 2013 to 2018.
