We make a departure from our originally stated episode two idea in order to talk faux expertise, the myth of scientific accuracy, the new secular religion that happens to be exactly like the old non-secular one, the origin of our logo art, and both why and how you aren't allowed to think for yourself.
As a bonus, you get to hear Tyler roll a cough drop around in his mouth for the first five minutes.
