I view James James Lindsay is like a train And he's on a troll is on a track and then he comes to you You guys divert him and instead of plunging into one journal he plunges into seven. I actually have a view that some of it is some of it isn't but in any case you could say that that if it turns out This stuff is intellectually corrosive and really bad. It's a good thing to try to Call attention to it and reveal its flaws and make people do better work this is the best spin I could think of the hoaxers They're like people trying to rid the Academy of creationists or white supremacists to say look at how bad this stuff is
What better way to celebrate our 150th episode than to bring back our favorite guest – Paul Bloom! We riff on a series of topics: the new “grievance studies” hoax, sex robot brothels, perverse desires, and perverse beliefs. Then we get a little navel gazey (OK maybe more than a little) and talk about podcasting as a form of media and discussion, good teaching, and what we’ve learned about our listeners and ourselves. (Note: the audio may sound a little echoey towards the end because of how far we’ve crawled up our own asses.) This was a fun one, enjoy!
Special Guest: Paul Bloom.
