Have you ever listened to a debate or maybe participated in one and thought, that doesn't sound right? Perhaps your point was lost down a rabbit hole of confusing counter-argument? Then this episode is for you. This week Peter and Russell debate their way through logical fallacies, how to spot one and how to brush it off and win that debate.
This week Peter and Russell look some more famous "facts" that people frequently quote that sadly just aren't true. Do you believe you shouldn't go swimming after eating? Do your hair and nails continue to grow after you die? Do you really have nightmares if you eat cheese before bed? Would an Ostrich really stick it's head in the sand when scared? Join us as we explore the basis of these beliefs and if they're actually true.
