We live in a modern Dark Age. Faith in pseudoscience is rampant, and belief in the supernatural permeates society at every level. Critical thinking is the key to understanding what is truly useful, and what merely distracts from progress and development. Brian Dunning created the top-rated science podcast Skeptoid: Critical Analysis of Pop Phenomena to take the underdog side of science and rationality amid the overwhelming majority of noise in the media promoting pseudoscience, alternative anything, and unconditional acceptance of the paranormal. Past speaking topics include: - Introduction to Critical Analysis of Pop Phenomena
- Debating with a Creationist
- Homeopathy
- What do Creationists Really Believe?
- Various paranormal, supernatural, and pseudoscientific phenomena
