143. Peter Boghossian | The Prof Clashing with Students

Peter Boghossian is an American philosopher who taught at Portland State University and has long focussed on atheism, critical thinking and scientific scepticism. He was part of the grievance studies project that made up fake academic papers with ridiculous topics to expose the way that peer review publications accepted anything providing it was woke or trendy.

What makes you a heretic? Journalist Andrew Gold believes that, in an age of group-think and tribes, we need heretics - those who use unconventional wisdom to speak out against their own groups, from cancelled comedians and radical feminists to cult defectors and vigilantes hunting deviants. Learn from my guests how to rebel, think differently and resist social contagion. From Triggernometry's Francis Foster and the world's most cancelled man Graham Linehan to Robbie Williams and gender critical atheist Richard Dawkins. These are the people living with the weight of their own community's disappointment on their shoulders.
