Episode 55: Flat Earth Theory

  • Summary

  • I have RETVRNED! Today we dive into flat earth theory... beginning with an appreciation for the value of the debate, which is often dismissed as annoying or irrelevant. Looking at one argument for flat earth and one argument against flat earth, we go over how such a debate might at least start. We also go over some of the history of the flat earth movement, which is less philosophical though still relevant in thinking about how to approach claims.
