Lee McIntyre - How to Talk to a Science Denier
from A Fresh Face in Hell with Jonathan Evison · host NYT Bestselling Author, Jonathan Evison
Today marks our 52nd episode! I couldn’t be happier to round out year one with our guest, Lee McIntyre. Lee is a philosopher by training, a research fellow at Boston University, and a lifetime member of Clare Hall, Cambridge. In this episode, we discuss how to reason with people who believe in theories that make zero sense—from flat earth and the hollow moon to faked moon landings, 5G towers, vaccine skepticism, and even “Jewish space lasers.” Lee explores the power and influence of groupthink and shows how to approach these conversations with patience and empathy. An inspiring point of view that truly encapsulates the spirit of A Fresh Face in Hell on our one-year birthday.https://leemcintyrebooks.comlinktr.ee: https://linktr.ee/freshfacepods.evison
