Customer Reviews
Amazing, with a handful of notable gaffs
You use the fallacious misquote of Darwin regarding the eye to chastise anti-creationists. Darwin actually states: "To suppose that the eye... could have been formed by natural selection [seems] absurd in the highest degree" but further in the paragraph places that statement in the context of describing how awesome it is that it did indeed evolve.
"[Pavlov's] writings record the use of a wide variety of stimuli, including electric shocks, whistles, metronomes, tuning forks, and a range of visual stimuli, in addition to ringing a bell" -wikipedia [Thomas, Roger K. (1994)]
You said one other thing that grated on me, but I've forgotten what by now.
Because aside from these gaffs, your podcast is amazing, crisp, insightful, with very clever non-typical explanations of a variety of psychological phenomenon. Truly a treat!
Great!
Very good analogies, informative, and all-around interesting to listen to!
Wow!
I've gotten such great insight from these podcasts. Actually more information than from class!
