Bridgebuilding #4: "American Dreaming" with Jamie Paul and Alexander von Sternberg

I speak with Jamie Paul and Alexander von Sternberg, two of the writers behind the American Dreaming blog on Substack. They have been regular contributors of their content to our subreddit, which has often produced lively discussion.

We discuss what got them into writing, the differences between reporting and journalism, the incentives of working in mainstream journalism and independently on platforms like Substack, what events led to these developments, as well as the evolution of the IDW of a community and movement.
