their chernobyl adventure ends here and do go on. but for the guided tour noble tour of the trip is far from over and this soviet radar facility is just a stopover. very definitely not. under the radar you might say. and it's not my view and i felt. they continue want to the city of prepared only 20 minutes away with a guided tour takes them to a cinema. a gymnasium. and a fairground that was originally planned to open just 4 days after the explosion. it was once the showcase city of the soviet union a prime example of soviet architecture since the disaster it's become a ghost town. so we enter in quite a big city and there's not a sound just the birds. the highlight of the tourist to get as close as possible to the scene of the accident reactor unit 4 at the nuclear power plant. since 1906 the power plant has been surrounded by a huge protective shell called the sarcophagus and in 2016 a 2nd protective layer was added a lot more than flying in. a souvenir photo in front of the old town sign. oh well. before leaving the site each vis

there is a bottleneck in chernobyl that leads to the disaster. because people don't know what is going on. and then we want to know what the world is like. and then chernobyl and world war ii and one of the ways the allied had an advantage with a much less free flow of information but the german commander of how the war was going so obviously that is a good thing in retrospect but these are authoritarian cases but i argue democracy is not a panacea so for example with respect to the bay of pigs and that started literature on groupthink that people who had doubts about the bay of pigs didn't really share those doubts. so asst a result we could not tell if it i was successful or not. so the only way we can remove the evidence but what kind of person would raise to the bay of pigs? so those are just some examples to think about this issue. hi>> so you are talking about something that is very high-stakes if you think of a long-run growth trajectory or the social problems so having this willingness to speak your mind is incredibly important. but you a

the cold war era missile tracking facility was abandoned after the chernobyl explosion. somebody'll reward for the 40 kilometers a month very special place. igor doesn't want to go any further. he suggests the extreme tourist should go on alone. she should look at a station where there are still 20 kilometers to go when it's too dangerous to go alone. and what you are not going to the village just you know it's too difficult or force with our resources we hardly have any water that we don't you manage half the distance with what we have and we go. the 2 friends decide to give up on their goal to make it to prepare for. their travel adventure ends here and do go on. but for the guided tour noble tour the trip is far from over and this soviet radar facility is just a stop over. very definitely not. under the radar you might say. and i thought i've given myself. they continue want to the city of prepared only 20 minutes away with a guided tour takes them to a cinema. a gymnasium. and a fairground that was originally planned to open just 4 days after the explosion. it was on

so chernobyl also another good example is world war ii. so the airline had the advantage over the axis of powers with much less free flow of information the german upper command had a less accurate picture how the war was going. that is obviously a good thing in retrospect. so these are authoritarian cases. but i argue democracy is not a panacea. so this happens in respect with the bay of pigs and that actually contributes to groupthink and one of the analysis is people with the bay of pigs they didn't share those statistics so as a result we were not able to tell if it was successful or not. the only way to remove the evidential bottlenecks is if we don't go straight to the character of the person. what kind of person would raise doubts on a nuclear powerpoint? or the bay of pigs? are you trying to be procommunist? those are just some examples which i think help to think about this issue. host: talking about the importance of the commons it is very high-stakes. if you think about the long-run growth trajectory, resolving deep-seated socia

so this comes back to just the kind of case of chernobyl or world war ii. if you're the leader of an organization, you want to know what's actually happening on the ground, right. so that you can craft the best response. but in so far as people kind of suppress information along the line, what gets up to you might not really be representative of what's happening so that can lead to bad decisions and really any context. it may not just be politicized. if people are afraid to reveal information or say what they think, that's certainly going to be a problem. so, yeah, i mean, so for an organization to work well in achieving its objective, seems like there should be an ethos of speaking your mind. which i think is true for many organizations, again, that aren't -- that don't touch on politicized issues, but, you know, like an engineering firm or something, seems that people are much more -- is this turbine failing or not. >> don't want to hide that information. >> right, right. wewe don't know if the turbine s a problem and then if you're the ceo you say okay,

and the words you used were, it was easier to get three guys to go into chernobyl than it was to get somebody to run against trump. what about in 2024? does it get even harder? >> well, not if you have somebody who is ready to do it on principle. yes, look, for everybody else, for the nikki haleys or marco rubios. if donald trump runs, he's going to freeze them all out. none of them will run against them because the party has been lost itself to cowardice. what is so exciting about what liz cheney is doing for somebody like me who has been so desperate for somebody to lead is that she is stepping up on principle. it's not a political calculation. it's coming from somewhere deeply rooted in wanting to save the republican party, save the country. restore the rule of law, protect the constitution and, frankly, just tell the truth. if you are a republican, like me, you have just been gaslighted for the last four and a half years. so to have somebody say, hey, the sky is blue, this is what is true, is so refreshing. and courage is contagious. i believe that if she gets out there and start
