The Rock & Roll Shrink Radio Show Ep. 59 - Welcome to the Machine (Propaganda)

Tonight’s show is called, “Welcome to the Machine: the Psychology of Political Propaganda.” 

Many people know the term, “Propaganda,” but one of the reasons it is so effective is that a majority of people in our society are not taught what it really means, or how to not fall prey to it.

We will explain what it is, how it came to be part of our society, and how to recognize it being used on yourselves so that you can take control of your reactions to it and choose freely.

Tonight, we will discuss:

1. What Exactly Is Propaganda, and its History

2. The Basic Tools of Propaganda and How it Works

3. Expansion on How Propaganda Functions

4. Conclusions

We'll start off the evening with some topic-relevant Classic Rock played by Dr. Mathis, followed by Classic Rock trivia, in "The Rock & Roll Shrink Recalls," followed by our topic discussion.
