Host Reed Galen is joined by Author and Senior Book Editor at The Atlantic, Gal Beckerman. They discuss how radical ideas originate and the workings of the movements that form around them, how social media is not the catch all solution when it comes to messaging, and how in order for an idea to truly take hold…a crucial part of the process is rational dialog/strategy in a quiet, private (not public) place. For more on this be sure to pick up Gal Beckerman’s latest book, The Quiet Before: On the Unexpected Origins of Radical Ideas, wherever fine books are sold.
