Bonus Ep. 148 Tim and Scott Debate Definitions...

The Freethinking Podcasts ·

2021/05/06

While recording our podcasts discussing Tim's response to Guillaume Bignon, I realized I'd disagreed with something I'd written down on our notes. Rather than cut off recording to discuss it, I decided to keep the cameras rolling so-to-speak, and both Tim and I liked the free flowing discussion that ensued. So I figured, why not make it into a bonus episode? Since this wasn't necessarily meant to be released, keep in mind that not everything we say is our official positions on the topics at hand
