Episode description

Papers, please. Yes, we're broadly tackling the topic of national security this week, from two directions. First, we touch on the Biden vs Trump debate and what the best path forward might be based on the data. And second, we discuss Julian Assange's release and the necessity of state secrets. If that sounds a bit full on, don't worry, because this one is actually Rather Silly™, and includes plenty of miffs, popes, and dick jokes. This episode's mistakes include:

  • Some audio echoes due to leaky headphones, sorry.
  • Failing to remember that the 'quantity over quality' debate strategy is named the 'Gish gallop'.
  • Not naming the episode 'Quiz Is Not Jizz'.
  • Egregious factual inaccuracies.
