It's A Curious World

032 - (Emma & Richard) - Believing Is Seeing


Listen Later

A slightly different approach this week as Emma is interviewed by one of her previous guests (Richard Cox, episode 21)

After revealing her uncertainty about the shape of the world in her own episode (episode 25), Richard reached out to have this conversation

Predictably, this conversation has elicited some reaction, not least from David Chandler who has very strong opinions on the subject. He wrote an essay on the subject which you can read here

I (Emma) don't claim to KNOW KNOW very much in this world. There appears to be a lot of nuance and uncertainty and definitely more than meets the eye. I encourage everyone to do their own research and draw their own conclusions

I encourage you to watch Allegedly Dave's Biggest Lie of All and specifically navigate to 2:50 where the living room scene occurs

A few days before this episode aired, I had a long (over three hours) debate with two friends who have different opinions to mine. This conversation got me thinking and I accept that there are some flaws in the flat earth hypothesis, just as there are flaws in the heliocentric model

Further discussion with another friend, led her to send me the image I have used for this episode - maybe this is the truth of our realm...

Wishing you all well with your musings in 2026
