Why You Shouldn't Fear Bad Ideas - SOLO! Drs. A.V. Bendebury & M.S. DeLay, DemystifySci #367

Shilo and Nastia sit down for a wide-ranging conversation about
engaging with controversial thinkers, the role of skepticism in
uncovering truth, and the cultural resistance to uncomfortable
ideas. We cover the limits of philosophy and science, the
prevalence of propaganda on all corners of the internet, and the
sacred cow ideas that shape our understanding of reality.
