Pat was feeling dubious so Ben delivers a crash course in the Pyrrhonian Skepticism of Ancient Greek philosopher/dilettante Sextus Empiricus. This is one of the few episodes where Pat picked the topic. Can you guess why? Anyway, Sextus Empiricus AKA The Sex Man lived and wrote sometime in the 2nd or 3rd centuries AD. His main contribution is his commitment to a notably strict form of skepticism that holds you can't hold ANY beliefs about anything so long as there are any points for and against that position. Very Zen. Also, fittingly, no one knows anything about the guy.
