Great show

Huge fan. Essential to hear about past degressions, unfortunately we don’t learn from them. Just watched the Marlon Brando movie “the wild one”, I read it was banned in UK for from the public in 13 years, but not in US. I thought US was way more sensitive than Europe. Is there a story there? I not expect an answer. Keep up your brilliant work.

Great show but may not live up to its title

Really appreciate the show and the research they do on interesting topics. I even appreciate their viewpoints but there is a catch. On a show that aims to dispel bias they introduce quite a lot. They have quite strong liberal views and while many are valid some get carried away and they would benefit to stop sometimes and see things from another perspective. A devils advocate would help get that fifth star because like it or not sometimes that other view is just as valid

Should have made a new podcast

This podcast goes from a premis about researching ‘common knowledge’ that the vast majority of us have gotten wrong to a reconfigiration in the newest season where it becomes two people having opinions based on their own life and ‘you are wrong about not believeing in ghosts!’ - from research to talk radio.

Sad to see it go and imo this should have been a finished series and not suddenly turned into something new just to keep the patreon and listeners on a wonky premis.
