Hello, critical thinkers! Is your BS detector a little rusty? This show is for you! Brian and I walk you through Carl Sagan's tried and true "Baloney Detection Kit" and the critical thinking moves you can make to ensure you are being "bamboozled" (as Carl calls it) by your own thinking or by others!
We discuss The Reboot Foundation's Report on The State of Critical Thinking 2021 -- reboot-foundation.org/. We discuss their surprising findings about the use of social media habits and how they relate to critical thinking habits. “Critical Thinking for Everyone" airs on FORward Radio, 106.5fm and forwardradio.org, WFMP-LP Louisville, every Thursday at 5 pm EST and repeats Thursday at midnight and Friday at 11 am. Please listen live at www.forwardradio.org/. Find us on Facebook at "Critical Thinking for Everyone". Our music is by Bensound, and it is free and available to anyone to use--www.bensound.com/
