How we can get better at thinking critically and objectively is the far-reaching topic of this discussion. Author Julia Galef discusses the findings of her new book, The Scout Mindset: Why Some People See Things Clearly and Others Don’t, including why many of us cling to our beliefs without the benefit of good reasoning. Host Matt Miller helps bring the importance of adopting the “scout mindset” front and center to the world of investing.

Julia Galef hosts the podcast Rationally Speaking and is the co-founder of the Center for Applied Rationality.
