Is There A WAR On Science? Lawrence Krauss

Please join my mailing list here 👉 https://briankeating.com/list to win a meteorite 💥 In a sweeping conversation sparked by his new book The War on Science, Lawrence Krauss charts how well-intentioned campus DEI bureaucracies, politicized funding mandates, and “language-as-violence” taboos are eroding the core scientific virtues of open inquiry and empirical scepticism, while drawing historical parallels from Lysenkoism to today’s hiring rubrics and challenging listeners to defend freedom of thought with the same passion they reserve for social justice. He then pivots from diagnosis to remedy, outlining a five-point rescue plan—slashing ideological litmus tests, restoring merit-based evaluation, insulating grant agencies from mission creep, teaching students to steel-man opposing views, and benchmarking success against China’s unencumbered research surge—arguing that only by re-centering evidence over ideology can science remain humanity’s most reliable truth-seeking enterprise. — 🎯 Key Takeaways: 00:00 Intro 01:04 The most dangerous idea threatening science today 02:35 The role of universities and academic freedom 10:26 Tenure and indirect costs in academia 14:58 Sanctions against free speech 17:39 The problem with tuition 18:42 Decolonializing STEM 23:57 What Trump is doing to address these issues 28:03 Free market education? 36:46 Judging a book by its cover 38:44 The distortion of science during COVID 44:12 Inequality in science 48:43 If Lawrence were president of the US 52:33 Audience questions 55:28 Outro — Additional resources: 📚 The War On Science by Lawrence Krauss: https://a.co/d/6ntEbll ➡️ Follow me on your fav platforms: ✖️ Twitter:   / drbriankeating   🔔 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/DrBrianKeatin... 📝 Join my mailing list: https://briankeating.com/list ✍️ Check out my blog: https://briankeating.com/cosmic-musings/ 🎙️ Follow my podcast: https://briankeating.com/podcast — Into the Impossible with Brian Keating is a podcast dedicated to all those who want to explore the universe within and beyond the known.
