David Brooks: “I've Got One More 10-Year Chapter in My Career, Probably”

Season 2026 Episode 8108 | 17m 56s

After 22 years, columnist David Brooks is leaving The New York Times. His final column, "Time to Say Goodbye," is a reflection on change in America over those two decades. Citing Americans' diminishing trust in institutions, technology, and even in one another, Brooks breaks down what he describes as a collective loss of faith. He joins Hari Sreenivasan to discuss how the nation could heal.
