7: Stopping Disinformation with Josh Gryniewicz from Odd Duck

How do you talk to someone who thinks that vaccinations cause autism or Covid doesn't exist? Spoiler alert: not by calling them stupid or beating them into submission with data. In this intriguing discussion with the Chief Narrative Officer of Odd Duck, I get a first-hand walkthrough of how we can combat mis- and disinformation by first recognizing the shared humanity of the people we're talking to. Being data-driven isn't just about the data. It's also about the stories we tell with that data.
