News:Politics
In the seventy-first episode we explore the Anecdotal Fallacy, starting out with Trump telling stories of employees whose children were turned autistic with vaccines, and friends who were cured by hydroxychloroquine.
In Mark's British Politics Corner (yes, Mark is actually back!) we look at the Irish and Thai leaders explaining why they relied on anecdotal evidence when they stopped vaccinating people for a bit.
In the Fallacy in the Wild, we check out examples from Mad Men and Enemies of Reason.
Jim and Mark go head to head in Fake News, the game in which Mark has to guess which of three Trump quotes Jim made up.
Then we talk about the GOP's latest efforts at voter suppression.
And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week.
