  • Critical Thinking Tools Podcast S2E2 | Correlation Does Not Mean Cause
    Jan 8 2024

    In this episode we discuss perhaps the most crucial critical thinking tools of all: knowing that correlation does not necessarily mean cause.

    We illustrate this with the correlation between ice cream sales and murders. Then we get into some controversial proposed correlations, such as police and crime, trauma and dissociation, trauma therapy and decompensation, and negative attitudes to paedophilia and paedophilia.


    In the process, we discuss the things that are needed to establish cause: 1. Correlation, 2. Cause comes before effect, and 3. Spurious correlations rules out, and 4. Changing one variable in a controlled way effects the other variable.

  • Critical Thinking Tools Podcast S2E1 | Humanities
    Jan 1 2024

    In this episode I explain how to get the most out of the beautiful subjects in the humanities.

    By using what UC Berkeley English Professor Frederick Crews called the "empirical approach" to the humanities I help students distinguish between good and bad art, history, literary criticism, sociology, philosophy, and so on.
