Very Bad Wizards

Episode 153: Progress in Psychology: A Reply to BootyBootyFartFart


Listen Later

David dies for science’s sins and addresses the failed replication of one of his studies (conducted with three former VBW guests) by the Many Labs Project. But first, the guys try to gauge their intuitions about the phenomenal experience of their molecule-for-molecule mirror reflection duplicate in a universe with a non-orientable topology. Could this spell doom for e-categoricalism? Plus, the annual Thanksgiving tradition: IDW star and Factual Feminist Christina Hoff Sommers and Tamler argue over drinks about standpoint epistemology, political correctness, and lingerie.

This episode is brought to you by Audible, Givewell, and the generosity of our supporters.

Special Guest: Christina Hoff Sommers.
