Professor Dave Farina - Countering The Counter Narratives

"Professor Dave" Farina of @ProfessorDaveExplains is one of the internet’s largest science education and debunking channels. In this episode, I sit down with Dave Farina (Professor Dave Explains) to talk about conspiracy theories, anti-science thinking, Joe Rogan, flat earth, the psychology of belief, and why intelligent people can still fall for ideas that don’t hold up under scrutiny. We also discuss: * Why misinformation spreads so effectively online * Whether major influencers actually believe what they say * The role podcasts now play in shaping public opinion * Why distrust in institutions has exploded * Whether science literacy is getting better or worse * And how identity gets tied to belief systems If I’m Really Honest: https://IfImReallyHonest.com https://JaminColler.com/iirh_Superfans #IfImReallyHonest #TeamPossiblyWrong
