Description

Nathan Crock, a philosopher, joins Danny Jones in an early episode of the podcast, recorded when it was still called KONCRETE, for a lesson in philosophical reasoning: how to argue. Crock explains the structure of good arguments, the fallacies that break them, and how to tell a real disagreement from a performance.

The episode is a toolbox disguised as a conversation. Jones supplies the examples and objections, and Crock rebuilds them properly. Listeners who have sat through this series' parades of extraordinary claims will find the standards here quietly devastating, or quietly useful, depending on their loyalties. Few entries in the collection teach a skill outright. This one does, and its skill is the one every other episode in the archive demands of its audience: reasoning well about claims that reason alone struggles to hold.
