Every media outlet has its strengths and weaknesses. WAADL views documentaries and headlines as interconnected narratives, with daily news often tracing its roots back to events lost in time. We’re here to remind you of those connections. By processing current events as timeless dramas and cross-referencing their origins, patterns emerge that help distinguish propaganda from fact, sharpening our ability to discern the quality of truth peddled by its possible manipulators.

Not every book is great, but every great book is worth your time. A short story can be as profound as a hefty trilogy. Practice the art of extraction: step away from cultural conventions now and then, and read creation beliefs as if they were mythology. An open mind must be filtered, not to restrict its intake, but to ensure it has room to expand — without space to grow, it becomes a passive receiver, not an active thinker.

We understand that information can be controversial and feel misleading. Sometimes, even the most benign factoid may be incorrect. All it takes is a hunch to second-guess yourself. Since we can all be a little biased, we encourage every WAADLer to fact-check not only what they read, but also their second-guesses, in hopes that they'll be able to grow a sixth sense for B.S..

WAADL is committed to citing everything under the sun. Trust in the information we share depends on the transparency of our sources. The only way to know you're wrong is when show your work.

The best way to expand your knowledge and creativity is to discuss without fear of ridicule, yet with the humility to admit ignorance. Rules of engagement require, at the very least, an agreement on the topic's definition and, at most, a tolerance for differing opinions.
