Holmesian Fallacy - FT#153

In the one hundred and fifty-third episode we explore the Holmesian Fallacy, starting with Trump not understanding battle tactics and Dinesh D'Souza not understanding much of anything.In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Rishi Sunak's claim that Labour don't have a plan, Marco Longhi's inability to think of alternatives to the Rwanda plan, and Nadine Dorries lack of linguistic imagination in describing abortion.In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from Star Trek, road signs on the A12, and The Science of Weird Shit.Jim and Mark go head to head in Fake News, the game in which Mark has to guess which one of three Trump quotes Jim made up.Then we talk about the Trump/Biden debate and the Supreme Court's immunity decision.And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week.The full show notes for this episode can be found at https://fallacioustrump.com/ft153 You can contact the guys at pod@fallacioustrump.com, on Twitter @FallaciousTrump, or facebook at facebook.com/groups/fallacioustrumpSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/fallacious-trump/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Om Podcasten

Jim and Mark use the insane ramblings of a tiny-handed narcissist to explain logical fallacies. Each episode we focus on a single logical fallacy and, using examples from Trump, UK politics and pop culture, explore how and why it fools people, how to avoid committing it yourself, and how to counter it in an argument.
