Karin Tamerius, MD is a political psychiatrist who teaches voters how to converse more productively and persuasively about politics with people they disagree with.
In addition to offering lectures and webinars, she created the Angry Uncle Bot
[https://chatgpt.com/g/g-B4TzjoXQ9-angry-uncle-bot]
powered by OpenAI’s ChatGPT to provide individuals with an opportunity to practice their conversational skills with a virtual partner before venturing into real life dialogues.
As the founder of Smart Politics (joinsmart.org), Dr. Tamerius has developed a number of tools to help people converse more productively, including the Trust Pyramid, the Persuasion Conversation Cycle, and Troll Taming.
Her work has been covered in a wide range of media outlets, including Time, The New York Times, The Guardian, Business Insider, NPR, and Fox and Friends.
How we first met.
I first crossed paths with Dr. Tamerius while listening to her podcast.
She wrote a Medium article and mentioned our conversation on her show. This is the comment I left on that piece.
Karen wrote about me and our conversation on Callin. I responded to her article on Medium in the comment section. It is cut and pasted below.

I am a vaccine abolitionist.
As the caller to the show referenced in this piece, I called in a few times on the app curious about the new show knowing nothing about Dr. T except a brief bio on her Twitter that I read before jumping into the conversation.
She and Locke were kind, friendly, open, and very willing to let me talk during the first episode. I missed the live broadcast of the second episode, but upon hearing myself discussed on the replay, I decided to chime in a final time on the Joe Rogan Show episode of Smart Politics.
After sharing quite a bit of my lived experience with Karin and Locke and listening to the caller who was befuddled by the behavior of her husband (who was obviously a Trump voter), who called in after me, I determined that I was not interested in listening to progressives get schooled any more.
I hope Dr. T has great success teaching lefties how to be kind.
As a conservative content creator I usually spend my time heckling them with memes. But they get so darn angry. It is great she is willing to help shepherd them back into polite civilization.
If you are interested in my work, I had the worlds leading vaccine abolitionist on my Callin show two days ago, and you can find my blog and substack by googling my name.
Cheers!
