Let's be honest, every episode of Bullshit was full of shock value and hyperbole. The point wasn't to clinically debunk the science behind whatever issue, it was to show how ridiculous it is that people unthinkingly believe stuff that is fed to them.

Every topic they discussed has at its core people making money off other people's credulity, and in that sense, stuff like global warming, recycling, etc, is no different. I mean, it actually physically hurts my brain to think that a guy who called for censorship of rock music is now a liberal icon because of his ravings about global warming.

Expressing skepticism of causes flogged by politicians, on a show whose purpose seems to be of a skeptical nature, is ironic?

Nice. Yeah the whole time my wife was saying, "This is like how lions work; the female does all of the work and the male saves his energy in case he has to fight something. Now if some hyenas showed up, he'd totally kick their butts."

You've got to let him go, sir.

Hey I watched your Naked and Afraid episode last night. Was Jonathan really as helpless as he looked in the episode? I know they can edit these things to create any reality they want, but it sure seemed like you were pretty much the only one pulling any weight for most of it. You also seemed to handle the emotional aspect of it a lot better. Either way it was great fun to watch.
