In this special bonus episode, Jef Szi shares his recent essay about this unapologetic trend on full display not just in the terrible shootings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, but in the Trump administrations response to those events. Jef show us how empathy and social care are essential tools as we aim to stay human in inhumane times. An important reminder that our feelings are not just difficult, but part of the solution. Finally, Jef shares his most recent poem. It imagines Adam apologizing to Eve in The Garden of Eden.","meta_description":"Episode Summary: Recent events in America from Minneapolis to Washington D.C., show us that unapologetic postures and political strategies are attractive…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1047,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/how-humans-work-podcast-1330381/episodes/bonus-episode-10-the-unapologetic-american-with-jef-szi/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/how-humans-work-podcast-1330381/bonus-episode-10-the-unapologetic-american-with-jef-szi.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
