Listen "Episode 43 - On Being Believed"
Episode Synopsis
This week we start with Celestia's tale of having a "tongue analysis" while on a cruise, which amounted to an alt-med version of cold reading. Then we examine a critical but controversial topic: are accusers routinely disbelieved in sexual misconduct cases? Ben brings some statistics on the public's view of high-profile accusations, and Celestia tackles data on police handling of rape reports. How true is this notion, and, more importantly, what harm does inflating such a notion cause?
In God we trust
