In the forty-fifth episode we explore the Appeal to Flattery Fallacy, starting with Trump tweeting compliments about the Prime Minister of Sweden and then lying to his supporters about how smart they are.
In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Boris Johnson flattering the people who voted for him and then his father Stanley Johnson covering for him with some environmental protesters.
In the Fallacy in the Wild, we check out examples from a L'Oreal advert, South Park, and H.G.Wells.
Jim and Mark go head to head in Fake News, the game in which Mark has to guess which of three Trump quotes Jim made up.
Then Jim interviews Simon Chadwick, the author of For the People: A Citizen's Manifesto for Shaping our Nation's Future.
And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week.
