“Hi there! I love listening to your show, the information quality is high and the range of content is wonderful.
I’m just catching up on a couple weeks of shows at the moment, I drive a lot for work, so not listening for a while and saving up an hour or a couple hours of episodes is how I like to listen.
I’m just listening to you episode ‘fallacious reasoning’ and I just wanted to make a point about the comment made about infomercials portraying people struggling with tasks that ‘most people don’t really have’.
I hope I’m not about to make my own fallacious argument right here, but many of the products that infomercials feature (and have able bodied actors advertising) are extremely useful for and targeted towards people who have disabilities (who most likely would be at home during the day while these commercials are playing, or maybe up late at night due to chronic pain).
It is rather bizarre and sometimes hilarious to watch these actors struggle with what most people consider ‘simple’ tasks, and can leave some people thinking ‘this looks so stupid, who on earth would struggle with something as easy as watering a house plant or chopping onions’, but the fact is non-disabled people often don’t have to put themselves into the shoes of people who are have chronic pain, low mobility, or a range of other conditions whose lives might be made easier by some of these products.
I honestly think infomercials should feature more actors with a range of disabilities to highlight this. I grew up with a disabled mother who struggled with mobility and chronic pain my whole life after she suffered a work injury, and who lived alone after I went to university. So my view on some of these products when I see them, is ‘hey, that would be great for mum!’
Great show, just needed to insert that information titbit, keep it up! I’ve recommended your podcast to many friends, and tend to share episodes with them when you talk about something someone I know is interested in. Take care and all the best.”

“Those old enough to remember Paul Harvey’s, “The Rest of the Story” will find this show familiar, as it has much the same approach as that classic show. Highly recommended.”

“The first and only podcast I’ve ever downloaded all the episodes. I usually listened to 5 or 6 a day and enjoyed all but one. Gary has gotten better and better with every episode and I learn so many intriguing facts I never knew. I honestly don’t know how he keeps it fresh daily. The only...”Read full review »
