He’s Not Wrong

Artificial Intelligence Is Making Us Dumber with Dr. Benjamin Arnberg

This week on He’s Not Wrong, I sit down with my former college mentor and now close friend, Dr. Benjamin Arnberg—a seasoned expert in research, education, and public service. With a PhD in Higher Education Administration from Auburn University and years of experience both in and out of the classroom, Ben brings is candid in our conversation about the state of higher education today.
We dig into the real challenges facing colleges and universities—from the political pressures shaping campus policies to the rise of artificial intelligence and how it’s complicating academic integrity. Ben shares the worst excuse he’s ever heard from a student, reflects on how higher ed has changed, and dishes out a list of hot takes (and what he’s definitely not wrong about).

From Broadway to the Vatican: Megan Hilty, Trump's Tariffs, and Pope Leo XIV

In this solo episode of He’s Not Wrong, I take you on a ride through pop culture, politics, and personal truths. We kick things off in NYC—well, emotionally, anyway—as I dive into how SMASH and Broad City make me feel like I’m back in the city I love. I break down why Megan Hilty deserved more on SMASH, and how my love has grown for her.
Then we get a bit serious: I unpack the real-world impact of Trump-era tariffs and the shocking prices they’ve caused, and shift into the global spotlight to talk about the excitement—and political weight—of the new Pope Leo XIV. Why should we care? Because the next few years may see him standing toe-to-toe with Trump and Christian nationalism.
To wrap things up, I take your calls. From advocating for your own health to breaking the cycle of Starbucks performative pay it forward chains, you’re not wrong—and we’re talking about it.

Regional Airports Are Holding America Together

In this episode, I’m not happy—and I’ve got reasons. From dealing with disruptive neighbors to hearing people trash-talk my hometown airport (which, for the record, only I get to do), there’s a lot to get off my chest. But we’re not stopping there. We also unpack why social media buzz doesn’t always translate to real-world election results—and why that's a reality we need to accept. Plus, we feature a user-submitted “I’m Not Wrong” take that you won’t want to miss. It’s a short episode, but we cover a lot. Let’s get into it.

Bonus Episode: Tornado Flashbacks and Going Global

Did I plan to drop two episodes today? Absolutely not. But here we are.
In this episode, I dive into my childhood tornado trauma (because, yes, I’m still not over it) and why today’s bad weather has me reaching for a glass of wine. I also share some of the insane things my boyfriend has said to me lately—because his brain is truly a fascinating place.
Plus, we’ve officially gone international! Shoutout to my first listener from across the globe. And finally, the humbling (read: soul-crushing) experience of editing my own voice and image—because nothing makes you question your life choices quite like hearing yourself say “um” 47 times in a row.
Enjoy this Sunday double drop!
