Bad reasoning is everywhere


If it seems to you like the world has lost its mind, you're not alone.

Logical fallacies, cognitive biases and propaganda are hiding in plain sight all around us.

And if you're wondering what on earth those words mean, don't feel bad...just a few years ago, I didn't know what they meant either!

Don't worry, I got you. Let's start by defining our terms:

 


Logical Fallacy

A logical fallacy is simply an error in logic...it's when someone makes a mistake in their thinking.

Once you learn the names of these fallacies and what they are, you'll start to see them EVERYWHERE!

 


Cognitive Bias

When a person has a cognitive bias, they have a limitation in their ability to think logically.

We all have them, actually, because we view the world through the lens of our own personal experiences and we are often surprised when other people don't view the world the same way we do.


Propaganda

Propaganda are tactics that cause you to be mentally & emotionally manipulated.

Propaganda is often used by advertisers to try to get you to do or buy something, and it’s also often used by groups with a political, religious or monetary agenda to get you to join their ‘movement’.

"Thank you for creating this podcast. It's light and uplifting, yet so helpful in understanding how to think critically, and why no one seems to be able to anymore.

I'm highly enjoying this!!"

"I love this podcast for our family!

Every episode is enough information to start a conversation and challenge our way of thinking with our children...

I also love the review for reinforcement and to check how much we retained.

This podcast is a must and totally family-friendly!"

Podcast Review

"Thank you for teaching a skill that is in critical low supply in the culture today. My 12 year old even enjoyed listening with me.

You discuss reasoning skills in such a fun and interesting way, making them relevant to the things we see in the new or on social media. Bravo!"

Podcast Review

Meet your host:

"Hi, I'm Kathy and I'm so excited to be sharing this topic with you!

I first learned about critical thinking just a few years ago, when my daughter was reading a book about logical fallacies for school.

We had so much fun learning the fallacies & soon found ourselves spotting them everywhere.

But as I became more aware of them, I realized how few people know this information...and it's actually hurting them and their ability to recognize good & bad thinking.

I have a real burden for Gen Z & A to be equipped with the discernment they'll need to navigate a world where it's getting harder & harder to tell what's true and what's not.

So, I created the Filter It Through a Brain Cell podcast so YOU can learn this skill and never get fooled by foolishness again!

As a Christian, I believe there IS Truth and we can know it. Thinking well is foundational to being able to love God with our mind."
