Episode 4: Of Impostors, Wizards, and Hangmen

from The Phantasmagorical Think Tank · host Scott & Matt

Can a computer convince Matt and Scott that it’s a human? What should a fantasy author know before writing his or her tale? Can you be 100% certain about something and still be wrong? Matt and Scott investigate these cognitively salubrious quandaries in the fourth installment of their quirkily euphonious podcast.
