When Johns Hopkins Economics Professor Steve Hanke released a
metastudy indicating that COVID lockdowns had only saved a small
number of lives compared to the astronomical figure that had been
reported by an Imperial College study, the backlash was quick and
fevered. The Imperial College researchers, along with "fact
checkers" like Snopes sought to refute the claims Hanke and his
co-authors made. Jimmy interviews Professor Hanke about the failure
of lockdowns and the backlash his study received.
Plus a segment on Krystal Ball's dismantling of Bill Maher over
widespread misinformation about the causes of runaway
inflation.
Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae! And
