Jim and Mark use the insane ramblings of a tiny-handed narcissist to explain logical fallacies. Each episode we focus on a single logical fallacy and, using examples from Trump, UK politics and pop culture, explore how and why it fools people, how to avoid committing it yourself, and how to counter it in an argument.

episode 132: Argument from Too Much Evidence - FT#132
In the one hundred and thirty second episode we explore the Argument from Too Much Evidence, starting with Kandiss Taylor seeing globes everywhere and Dinesh D'Souza being suspicious of Covid.
In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Nigel Farage decrying Boris Johnson's many claims on when we would leave the EU, followed by the FT's Miranda Green being skeptical about the promises in Corbyn's manifesto.
In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from Blackbird, Murder Mystery, and Inspector Gadget 2.
Jim and Mark go head to head in Fake News, the game in which Mark has to guess which one of three Trump quotes Jim made up.
Then we talk about the new rules about school vouchers in Florida.
And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week.
