EP 41 - Kyle Vitale (Heterodox Academy)

from The Examined Athlete Hosted by Clay Reichenbach

In this episode, Clay speaks with Kyle Vitale, PhD. Kyle is the Director of Programs at the Heterodox Academy (HxA). HxA is a nonpartisan nonprofit formed as a response to the rise of orthodoxy within scholarly culture. HxA works to improve the quality of research and education by promoting open inquiry, viewpoint diversity, and constructive disagreement in institutions of higher learning. The HxA community is made up of more than 5,000 professors, educators, administrators, and students who come from a range of institutions, represent nearly every discipline, and are distributed throughout 49 states and across the globe. Learn more about HxA on their website (https://heterodoxacademy.org/) and check out educational videos on Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/c/HeterodoxAcademy)! Kyle introduces listeners to the Heterodox Academy. Kyle and Clay explore HxA’s mission, the problem of orthodoxy, how to win skeptics, John Stewart Mill’s case for free speech and view point diversity, why ideas must be vigorously contested, responsible disagreement, how to frame ‘harm’ and develop trust.
