NPR Series Explores Family Dynamics Amid Conspiracy Theories

In a new NPR podcast series titled 'Embedded,' reporter Zach Mack explores the growing divide between him and his father, who each believe the other has fallen victim to conspiracy theories. The series begins with their decision to confront these differing worldviews through a bet over predictions about political events, aiming to change each other's perspectives. As they navigate their debates, they question whether it's possible for a family to coexist with such contrasting beliefs. The series, which consists of three episodes, reflects broader societal challenges regarding misinformation and shared realities. Listeners can access the podcast on various platforms. The first episode is available now, with more to come.
