Descripción

On this episode, we talk about how to navigate information overload and the "social media whiplash" effect caused by contradictory claims in your feed. We break down the difference between healthy skepticism—demanding evidence before belief—and pure cynicism. Finally, we analyze the cognitive biases that compromise critical thinking, specifically confirmation bias and the availability heuristic, and outline a functional system to verify facts without needing a science degree.
