TIME STAMPS & CALL NOTES

00:00 - Intro
05:13 - Mysticism vs Skepticism? - David (they/he) - NC
19:34 - Christian Charity: What Is It Good For? - Javier (he/him) - FL
37:39 - When You Can’t Trust The Media… - Rae (they/them) - UK
01:03:38 - Non-denominational Atheism? - Chaos (she/they) - UK
01:16:53 - Summer of the Psychics - Thomas (he/him) - TN

05:13
We get off to a rocky start as David calls in to talk about their background in mysticism and skepticism, and how those two interact. We’re going to be honest, it may have been the lack of caffeine, but we didn’t really get it. Vi ends up hanging up on this caller after they start demanding air time.

19:34
Repeat theist caller Javier calls in to ask the hosts’ opinions on religious-based charitable organizations. Is it worthwhile to hold a sandwich hostage in order to save a soul?

37:39
Where should you go to hear the truth? Are all media organizations corrupt? Why are science journalists so bad at reporting science accurately? This caller wants to know how to guard against misinformation, and Vi puts their journalism degree to use.

1:03:38
This caller is having trouble interacting with atheists online, who don’t seem to know what to do with someone who calls herself a skeptic and a polytheist. How do we communicate better? Vi’s answer pretty soundly disses the atheist community, so feel free to go off in the comments.

1:16:53
This caller is wondering how a psychic knew his toilet was going to explode. A fun way to wrap up the episode, the hosts share their own plumbing horror stories and discuss the sharpshooter fallacy.
