Hello everyone,
I thought you guys might like to know what's been going on and when the next releases can be expected.
First, Yudkowsky's decoding is recorded AND the Gurometer episode. We are currently in editing mode as the episode is 3hrs+ presently. We will release the rough cut here early as soon as we have it ready and it will be out for everyone by Friday. Gurometer can go up now but it seems more sensible to post it after the Decoding is out.
Second, Bret and Eric go into UFO world topped the polls. I know people want us to get to Chomsky before he leaves this mortal coil and McConaughey's weird self-help thing definitely needs decoding but first, it is time for a quick jaunt back to Weinstein world.
Also, some interviews we have coming up:
- Mick West (UFO investigator/debunker) on UFOs, UAPs, dealing with UFO advocates, debunking, etc.
- Jonathan Howard (science-based medicine contributor and doctor) on the Covid Contrarian doctors, vaccine side-effects, etc.
- Julia Ebner on researching extremist communities and psychological motivations for violence.
We will also have a live hangout next week for Galaxy Brain Gurus, with plenty of notice this time...
Oh, and we might have a mini-decoding episode on Shermer's appearance on Triggernometry because it was just too annoying.
That's all for now!

2023-06-07 03:42:21 +0000 UTCThis is great, I am always interested in the intersection between IDW and the skeptics. If you get to speak to Jonathan Howard could you ask him about Harriet Hall, she was a member of SBM, and left due to different views on the trans issue, it seems like even organizations like SBM are not immune to the culture wars.

2023-06-06 20:42:55 +0000 UTCLooking forward to these interviews—big fan of the whole SBM crew & Mick West. And I admit to voting for Weinstein ufos (Hobson’s choice, really), but the McConaughey con is a bizarre sideshow too. https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2023/apr/25/look-the-monster-in-the-eye-11-things-i-learned-from-matthew-mcconaughey-last-night
