14th-century English philosopher and theologian William of Ockham’s famous philosophical razor advocates that when presented with competing hypotheses about the same prediction and both theories have equal explanatory power one should prefer the hypothesis that requires the fewest assumptions. But what hypothesis would Big Bad Bill have about why Kevin is so crap at our Ultimate Catalogue Clash side games? Hypotheses a) Kev’s throwing the game because he likes being the underdog, unlikely, he’s a competitive little toad and we’d have to assume he actually knows the answers, b) Corey is cheating, also unlikely as Corey is far too principled and decent a man to do that, and Kev can see him on the other side of the screen… c) Corey just has a better mind for working these things out. As we can see from these three scenarios, Occam’s razor definitely guides us to the logical conclusion that Corey is cheating.
Will Corey find more variety and something to love on the second acoustic side and will Kevin close the gap in The Best Of You after trouncing Corey last week?
The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and high dive into your brain.
