This is the classic argument clinic sketch from Monty Python. It's beautiful, it's an electoral, and it's absurd in a way that reveals a truth about human nature. And it pops into my head whenever I see real sort of arguments like this. In the Freddie Mac, we did it. All right, that's well. But you still went out in July and said everything was great and off that a lot of people bought stock and lost everything they had. Don't give me any of that. We just heard the words 'What are you? What are you? That you didn't say that?' No, no. Not at all. Thank you.
On this episode we discuss the psychology of arguing and interview both Jeremy Shermer and Hugo Mercier. Afterward, I eat an orange chocolate chip cookie and read a news story about reading your partner's mood in old age.
