Episode notes

Reflecting on past dismissive behavior, the speaker explores the value of fostering understanding through connection, cooperation, and love in critical thinking. They discuss the motivations and influences behind reasoning, encouraging intellectual humility and good-faith conversations.

In this episode Jesse Richardson tells us all about ConspiracyTest.org, a new project designed to be a weird, fun, and cleverly educational way to explore just how skeptical you are (and could be) about a variety of conspiracy theories. The whole thing is designed to be very sharable and very viral, and it's launching right before Thanksgiving 2023 so that you can share it with your conspiracy-theory-entertaining friends and family over the holidays, in person or over social media (but you should definitely try it out on yourself first).
