"These women are not stupid. They weren't given the right critical thinking skills or the science background, and they're being preyed upon. These are industries that are capitalizing on their vulnerabilities and capitalizing on their pain." Listen here: buff.ly/3zowkEq
Journalist and author @rrrins sits down with our own @PaulFidalgo of @FreeInquiry to discuss how, for many people, wellness has become akin to a religious faith, complete with its prophets and heretics. Self-care much? This episode's for you: buff.ly/3zowkEq

What does it take to make a TV news show? How are ideas conceptualized and executed? And what's being done to inject more science and skeptical thinking into the entire process? We explore with an anonymous source. Listen here: buff.ly/3AU8lN3
Steve has worked on @Unsolved and #ScariestPlacesOnEarth, and now exposing the inner workings of paranormal reality. We go into how he made things "real" for the participants, and how he used misdirection and mentalism. Listen here: pointofinquiry.org/2022/08/skepti…
