Fallacious Trump

Argument from Ignorance - FT#18


Listen Later

In the eighteenth episode we are really excited to be joined by Michael Marshall from the podcasts Skeptics With A K and Be Reasonable and the Good Thinking Society.


In this episode we explore the Argument from Ignorance Fallacy, with examples from Trump talking about voter fraud and Ted Cruz's father.


In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Boris Johnson talking about Russian election interference and Theresa May claiming Corbyn doesn't have a clue.


In The Fallacy in the Wild, we check out examples from Super 8 and 12 Angry Men and Marsh tells us about some of the interviews he's done with conspiracy theorists.


Jim, Mark and Marsh go head to head (to head?) in a game of Fake News, the game where Mark and Marsh have to guess which of three Trump quotes Jim made up.


And finally we talk to Marsh about homeopathy, The Good Thinking Society, talking to people you disagree with, and reaching out to non-skeptics before we round up some of the crazy Trump stories from the past week.


Subscribe to Fallacious Trump to make sure you never miss a logical fallacy. Rather than just mindless anti-Trump rhetoric, we apply skepticism and critical thinking to our Donald Trump analysis by exploring his liberal use of logical fallacies and cognitive biases, along with a bit of humor and news about US politics. (But there is also some of that much needed anti-Trump rhetoric.)
