Happy Ghost Library Month, Brian! Are ghosts anarchists? Are chimps? Are human toddlers? Today is part two of our three part series exploring anarchism and its plausibility as a political model. Lindsey talks about her huge crush on developmental and comparative psychologist Michael Tomasello's research on the interdependence hypothesis.

Is a cigar just a cigar? Is the shoe a sign that we should be thinking not of the things of the body, but of the face and head? In this episode, we continue our four-part discussion of conspiracy thinking, focusing today on the psychology of conspiracy thinking, with a special focus on QAnon and apophenia.

Why was Brian involved in radical leftist political circles? Why? By whom? Was Brian’s election rigged? Did good people prevent the rigging? This is part one of our four-parter on conspiracy thinking, and we kick things off by finding out a little more about Brian’s personal history with conspiracy theories and spiritualism.

Do you remember when Bill Gates made a fake winter storm in Texas (or something like that)? Is a change in climate of 0.6 degrees really that big of a deal? What's a complex system, and why? In this episode, Brian gives us the break down of weather and climate as complex systems, and tackles some common climate change denial talking points.

Were spatial reasoning abilities shaped by Pleistocene sexual division of labor? Are women immutably terrible at math and physics? Are we starting a multi-cult commune? This is part 2 of our discussion about the history of "classical liberalism." This time, we dig into the science of cognitive sex differences.

Lots of Sam Harris's friends are "classical liberals," but what does this really mean? Does classic rock hold the key? This is part 1 of our discussion about the history of "classical liberalism," and how it gave rise to the "we're not ideological" ideology of the Intellectual Dark Web et al., especially regarding their views on women. Next time, we dig into the science of cognitive sex differences.

Which insurgency will YOU join: the plutocrats or the criminal underclass? In this episode, we discuss Dr. Nils Gilman's fascinating paper "The Twin Insurgency" (https://www.the-american-interest.com/2014/06/15/the-twin-insurgency/). Brian takes the lead on the political and historical context of the rise of neoliberalism in the United States, and Lindsey connects the literature on evolved cheater detection mechanisms to political rhetoric. Here's a link to Tomasello's paper The Ultra-Social Animal, which comes up in the second half of the show: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1002/ejsp.2015.

What a FUPing mess. Did a biologist get canceled for claiming that there are "only two biological sexes?" Was a scientific conference unfairly maligned for heresy? In this episode, we discuss the evidence for whether academia and the sciences are hostile to political conservatives and that the scientific consensus in several disciplines are being guided by political dogma. For more information about the claims we discuss, check out Lee Jussim's blogpost here: https://psychrabble.medium.com/the-threat-to-academic-freedom-from-academics-4685b1705794

FUP you, Brian. Because of you, the makers of this terrible movie got a few dollars richer. Do we create our days? Have we infected the quantum? In this episode, we discuss quantum weirdness, sophomoric pseudo-psychology, and the grift of New Thought underlying What The Bleep Do We Know?
