Thanks for listening today! This week we're back again with another guest, the host of the Realist Idealist podcast.
This is a wide-ranging, unscripted conversation about critical thinking. We cover discomfort with emotions, sitting in or with negative emotions, dam-building, how solving a problem can create new problems, and how to connect with your own feelings, emotions and intuition. 
I mention a fantastic professor who encouraged critical thinking in courses I took during my master's degree program.
We talk briefly about an issue with biodiesel I heard about on the Life Stylist podcast with Luke Storey.  
And, because he's one of my favorite writers, here's a great quote by the incomparable Edward Abbey, also mentioned during our discussion, that I think can be expanded out to encompass critical thinking. 
Transparent and intangible as sunlight, yet always and everywhere present, [the desert] lures a man on and on, from the red-walled canyons to the smoke-blue ranges beyond, in a futile but fascinating quest for the great, unimaginable treasure which the desert seems to promise. Once caught by this golden lure you become a prospector for life.
