Skeptical Thinker Podcast

By: James and Leah - Father and Daughter team of skepticists
  • Summary

  • Welcome to Skeptical Thinker. A podcast where we dispel misconceptions and respect your ability to think critically about the world and everything in it! Being a skeptical thinker is so much more important today with all of the misinformation in social media. If you can't use your mind and intelligence to dig deeper into issues, you run the risk of being misled. Skepticism is all about asking questions , and being unwilling to believe without conclusive evidence. A skeptical person regularly asks themselves, "could I be wrong?"

  • Are you Cultish?
    Sep 25 2024

    In this episode, Leah and I jump into the book "Cultish," by Amanda Montell. This is a book that delves into the idea of "in-groups," and "out-groups" that are found in every part of our culture today. A highly recommended read!

  • Connecting to Nature
    Aug 25 2024

    Welcome Back to Season 2 of Skeptical Thinker!

    I have asked my oldest daughter to join me on the Skeptical Thinker Podcast because we share so many incredibly interesting conversations! So a warm welcome to Leah!

    Today's Discussion is how connected we can be to the natural world. We are discussing parts of a book by Tristan Gooley called How To Read Water . Another book that comes up in our discussion is Self-Compassion by Kristen Neff. I (Jamie) have not read How to Read Water, but I did read Self Compassion and I have learned a lot from it to use in my daily life!

    Hope you enjoy our new format! I know there are audio issues with our discussion - we were using Discord for the recording, but I just got a new computer, and I think I forgot to change the microphone from computer to the mixing board, so I sound a little like I'm in a tin can!


    Best Regards!

    Jamie
