Podcast Description
As heard daily on WKZO AM 590, Stephen L. Gibson presents daily commentary about his search for unvarnished truth in all matters. Who could be against truth? Well it turns out we all are to some degree. Our emotions are our worst enemy, but that's just the starting point. Steve provocatively shares thoughts on current events, as well as anecdotes from his journey away from emotion-driven thinking, and toward Truth-Driven Thinking (hear the long-form program at iTunes). Steve claims no unique access to truth or knowledge, but openly challenges those who do--especially where there is evidence to the contrary. He's a skeptic with a heart, and argues psuedoscience, junk science, quackery, fallible human reasoning, and failures to follow reason, science, and evidence--cause very real harm to you, me, and the world. Tune in and find out more.

TDC#005: Truth Exist | Are there questions that have no answers? For all practical purposes, I'm going to argue no--but that the answers may be so complex and unknowable to us, that we'll never come even close to knowing truth. But that said, truth exists (contrary to many relativist arguments). So let's go look for it!!!

I like it
I can't wait to hear the full length version. Both sides of an issue? Skeptisizm of both? Who'D a thunk it? About time.
A Worthwhile Experiment
Gibson is a kinder, gentler skeptic who lacks the bombast of most talk radio hosts, televangelists or celebrity atheists. He hosts an excellent (and occasionally long winded) podcast called "Truth Driven Thinking," so it will be interesting to hear how he deals with this much briefer format.
