The Comical Heathen S2 E2: Myq Kaplan

  Show notes: This episode of the Comical Heathen features my interview with Myq Kaplan.  We discuss his comedy beginnings, his thoughts on religion and hallucinogenics, and some of his ideas about satire.  What a mensch!  This episode includes my rant about Bill Maher's recent use of the made-up odds "50-50" while talking about the coronavirus!  With my guest cohost Jesse Pimpinella, we talk about how this is an example of the logical fallacy known as "argument from ignorance."  This episode includes a special PSA on the subject of cults.     Topics discussed include: Myq Kaplan's website:  https://myqkaplan.com/ Myq Kaplan's recent CD A.K.A.:  https://www.amazon.com/K-Myq-Kaplan/dp/B084RH6YWP/ref=sr_1_3?crid=375L5QQDCSVE7&dchild=1&keywords=myq+kaplan&qid=1616776969&sprefix=myq+kaplan%2Caps%2C183&sr=8-3 Jesse Pimpinella on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/ComedyJesseP Bill Maher spreading the conspiracy theory that the conornivirus might be man-made:  https://www.thedailybeast.com/bill-maher-pushes-bonkers-steve-bannon-wuhan-lab-covid-conspiracy  Additional resources: Find the Comical Heathen on Facebook:    https://www.facebook.com/comicalheathen Our website:  https://comicalheathen.podbean.com/ Email us with comments or questions for our upcoming April 11 live Q&A: [email protected] This is an ad-free and independently produced podcast.  Please consider donating via this link (to our other podcast):  https://www.goldstarclassroom.com/ A "Comical Heathen" coffee mug can be purchased via Jerry's comedy merch shop on ETSY:  https://www.etsy.com/shop/JerryJaffeComedyShop?ref=seller-platform-mcnav
