Critical thinking is the process of examining and analyzing an issue
based on all available analysis. The emphasis is on evidence.
The descriptions of these podcasts are taken from the websites.
Logically Critical
The Logically Critical podcast is intended to encourage critical
thinking in everyday situations without the hassle of checking facts at
the library. Rather than quote historical research or bore you with
statistics about how many dentists suggest what cigarette to their
patients, this will use information that we can all reasonably agree
on, and will show by example how to more-fully explore any given issue
be it traffic, religion, or how to lure a weasel into a cardboard box.
Point of Inquiry
Point of Inquiry is the premiere podcast of the Center for
Inquiry, drawing on CFI’s relationship with the leading minds of the
day including Nobel Prize-winning scientists, public intellectuals,
social critics and thinkers, and renowned entertainers. Each episode
combines incisive interviews, features and commentary focusing on CFI’s
issues: religion, human values and the borderlands of science. Point of
Inquiry explores CFI’s three research areas:
-
Pseudoscience and the paranormal (Bigfoot, UFOs, psychics, communication with the dead, cryptozoology, etc.)
- Alternative medicine (faith healing, homeopathy, “healing touch,” the efficacy of prayer, etc.)
- Religion and secularism (church-state separation, the effects and
proper role of religion in society, the future of secularism and
nonbelief, etc.)
Quick Hitts
Quick Hitts are brief, pithy, and the only podcasts that get you
Smartenized®. Enjoy a semi-humorous look at news, culture, science,
politics, and the world around us from a somewhat disgusted, slightly
amused point of view, and end up just a bit smarter than you were before.
Skepticality
People will believe anything. Why is that?
Our podcast is here to bring you relevant, under reported current
events, as well as in-depth discussions from a scientific, critical,
skeptical, and humorous point of view.
In our travels we will tackle the beasts of pseudo science; the
paranormal, supernatural, ufo / alien encounters, misunderstood
history, astronomy, space, and overwrought legends - urban or otherwise.
