About Filter It Through a Brain Cell
From the publisher's feed
Can you recognize bad thinking, manipulative advertising and tricky arguments when you see them?
How about your kids - how will they know whether the memes they're seeing on social media are really true?
Critical thinking is the most important skill you can have when you’re living in a world that seems to have lost its mind.
Everyone out there is trying to tell you WHAT to think, I want to teach you HOW to think!
In every episode, I’m exposing the logical fallacies & cognitive biases being used by advertisers, politicians, influencers, news outlets, social media memes, and maybe even your own best friend.
Warning: listening to this podcast will cause you to see bad thinking everywhere!
Welcome to the Filter It Through a Brain Cell Podcast!
I'm a homeschooling mama who realized we need to equip the next generation to be able to discern truth from lies and created this podcast with short, fun episodes that you can play in the car with your teens and have a fun discussion about what you've learned!
NOTE: While you're certainly welcome to listen to this podcast in any order, I recommend listening in sequential order starting with Episode 1. I think you'll get more out of it that way!
