In a time when trust in institutions, media, and even basic facts feels increasingly fragile, we thought it was the right time to bring back this conversation with Poppy McDonald. As misinformation spreads more easily, AI-generated content blurs the line between fact and fiction, and political divisions continue to deepen, understanding where reliable information comes from has never been more important.
Poppy shares how USAFacts works to make government data accessible, understandable, and free from political spin. She and Guy explore the challenges of misinformation, declining trust in media, the role of data in a healthy democracy, and why facts still matter—even in an era when people often disagree on what’s true.
If you’ve ever wondered where to find information you can trust, how to cut through the noise, or whether facts can still bring people together, the need for this conversation has only grown since it first aired.
Mahalo,
Guy
