Dr. Gad Saad: The Power of Influence and How Minds Get Manipulated
About this episode
Behavioral scientist and best-selling author Dr. Gad Saad joins Joe Pags for a deep, eye-opening conversation about how propaganda, ideology, and manipulation have taken over modern society.
They explore:
-
How advertising and media subtly control what we think and believe
-
Why false ideas spread like parasites in the human mind
-
How NYC elected Zohran Mamdani — and what that reveals about today’s voter psychology
-
The rise of radical thought and how it threatens Western values
-
Whether reason and free speech can still survive in an age of emotional tribalism
Dr. Saad breaks down the psychology behind influence, identity, and power — and Joe challenges him on how Americans can reclaim independent thought.
🔥 A must-listen for anyone who refuses to be programmed by the culture.
