Episode description

In the one hundred and fifty-fifth episode we take another look at the False Dilemma Fallacy, starting with Trump questioning Bill Barr's loyalty, being dramatic about the stakes of the election, and not understanding the nuance of opening the country during a pandemic.

In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Viscount Younger of Leckie talking about the financial drawbacks of climate concern, GB News on whether you should care about the NHS or pronouns.

In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Two and a Half Men, and Parks & Recreation.

Jim and Mark go head to head in Fake News, the game in which Mark has to guess which one of three Trump quotes Jim made up.

Then we talk about Tim Walz.

And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week.
