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: Sour Grapes - FT#134
In the one hundred and thirty fourth episode we explore the Sour Grapes Fallacy, starting with Trump claiming Salma Hayek is too short for him, and NFL games are boring, and various right wingers claim Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are talentless and ugly.
In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Jonathan Wallace and Nigel Farage being bitter about losing elections.
In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from I Love Lucy, Father Ted, and Flight of the Conchords.
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 search for a new Speaker.
And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week.
