Episode 158: False Dichotomies and Oral Reciprocity




Very Bad Wizards show

Summary: <p>David and Tamler talk about the invasion of dual process theories in psychology. Why do we love theories that divide complex phenomena into just two categories? Is there any evidence to back up these theories? Are we distorting our understanding of the mind and morality? And what we can do to get out of this mess? Plus, Liam Neeson, moral pet peeves, and oral ethics.</p><p>Sponsored By:</p><ul><li> <a rel="nofollow" href="http://mackweldon.com">Mack Weldon</a> Promo Code: VERYBADWIZARDS</li></ul><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.patreon.com/verybadwizards">Support Very Bad Wizards</a></p><p>Links:</p><ul> <li><a title="Melnikoff, D.
