    Dr. Christopher Kavanagh is an Associate Professor in the College of Contemporary Psychology at Rikkyo University and a researcher in cognitive anthropology at the Institute of Cognitive & Evolutionary Anthropology (ICEA) at the University of Oxford. His research interests include East Asian religions, ritual behavior, and the bonding effects of shared dysphoria.
    Dr. Matthew Browne is Professor of Psychology at Central Queensland University. He is a research professor working primarily on psychological and health aspects of gambling. His main expertise is in research methods and statistics, and so he often acts as a consulting statistician assisting other researchers and students.
    They are the hosts of the Decoding the Gurus podcast.
     
    In this episode, we talk about Decoding the urus. We discuss issues with the skeptical and the rationalist communities. We explore the “gurometer”, and what makes someone a guru. We talk about people who have personal grievances with academia. We discuss how certain gurus promote alternative healthcare, diets, and supplements. We talk about the heterodox movement and what it gets wrong. Finally, we discuss the delusions of people like Gary Stevenson and Cristiano Ronaldo.

    8 and 1/2 Years of The Dissenter: I Need Your Support, Please

    08/08/2026 | 1 mins.
    The channel/podcast is now 8 and a half years old!
    This has been a wonderful journey, and I am extremely grateful to every single guest of the show, and to everyone who has helped me over the years with financial support, suggestions, and words of encouragement.
    I plan on doing this for the rest of my life, and keep on bringing you interviews with leading scholars, academics, and rising stars in the sciences and the humanities.
    In order to make the channel financially sustainable, I need to get back to around $900 of monthly support on Patreon.
    Just $1, $3, or $5 a month from you would make a huge difference. If you have ever considered supporting the show financially, I ask you to please do it.
    I have noticed that I have around 150 free members on my Patreon page. If just a few of you could become paid members, it would be awesome.
    I am leaving the links to my Patreon page and to PayPal, if you can so kindly support me there. You also get all sorts of perks on Patreon.

    Dr. Matthew Lindauer is an Associate Professor of Philosophy at Brooklyn College and the CUNY Graduate Center, and an Associate Professor of Psychology at the CUNY Graduate Center. He is co-director of the PsyPhi Lab. He works in moral and political philosophy and moral psychology, often at the intersections of these fields. He is the author of The Fruitfulness of Normative Concepts.
     
    In this episode, we focus on The Fruitfulness of Normative Concepts. We talk about the relationship between philosophy and science, the relationship between moral philosophy and moral psychology, and the relevance of science to ethics. We go through five dimensions of fruitfulness for normative concepts. We discuss whether the theory can be extended to non-normative concepts. We address objections and challenges to the theory. We discuss implications for the nature of moral motivation, implications for the duties to the global poor, and implications for the nature of justice in diverse multicultural societies. Finally, we talk about whether this theory can be brought together with traditional approaches in moral and political philosophy.

    Dr. Wataru Toyokawa is Unit Leader at the Computational Group Dynamics (COGNAC) Collaboration Unit at RIKEN CBS, Tokyo, and Visiting Scientist at Center for Advanced Study of Collective Behaviour at the University of Constance. His research focuses on the computational underpinnings and eco-evolutionary implications of human social learning and their relationships with group decision-making and collective behavior. Using computational modelling and Bayesian statistical methods, coupled with online real-time behavioral experimentation, he is quantitatively approaching human social behavior and group dynamics. He also uses mathematical models to study population dynamics and evolutionary games.
     
    In this episode, we start by talking about social learning: what it is, and how it is studied. We discuss why we learn from others, when we copy others, and how we learn from others despite our individual differences. We then talk about collective decision-making, and discuss the madness and wisdom of crowds, and the social learning strategies that regulate the wisdom and madness of interactive crowds.

    Dr. Omer Bartov is Dean’s Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Brown University. Dr. Bartov's early research concerned the Nazi indoctrination of the Wehrmacht and the crimes it committed in World War II, analyzed in his books, The Eastern Front, 1941-1945, and Hitler's Army. He then turned to the links between total war and genocide, discussed in his books Murder in Our Midst, Mirrors of Destruction, and Germany's War and the Holocaust. His latest book is Israel: What Went Wrong?
     
    In this episode, we focus on Israel: What Went Wrong? We talk about what Zionism was originally, how it became intertwined with the displacement of Palestinian people, and how it became a state ideology and a settler colonialist ideology. We discuss the “anti-Zionist” label. We talk about what it is like to grow up in Israel. We discuss whether Hamas and Hezbollah are resistance movements. We discuss what could be the aftermath of the genocide in Gaza, and why Israel is in a state of forever war with its neighbors. Finally, we talk about how there could be stability in the Middle East.
