Chanel connects, the arts and culture podcast is back for its third season. Each episode brings together global thought leaders, artists and creators. We rejoin Stephen Pinker and David Runciman to talk about why skepticism can be a tricky proposition. Listen now on your preferred streaming platform or on Chanel.com.
For the second part of our conversation between cognitive psychologist and bestselling author Steven Pinker and academic and podcaster David Runciman, who teaches politics and history at Cambridge University, we rejoin the discussion with the two looking at the roots of skepticism. This interview first appeared on Intelligence Squared in early 2019 at the time of the publication of Pinker's book, Enlightenment Now: The Case for Reason, Science, Humanism, and Progress.
