Ep 4: Greg Glassman - The Tenets of Broken Science
Listen now
Description
Science, once a beacon of objectivity, has become marred by corruption and misuse. At BSI, we are on a mission to unravel the tyranny of broken science and those who exploit it. In this week’s episode, we hear from Greg Glassman as he dives deep into the issues of broken science and addresses the consequences of research that will not replicate. This talk was recorded over a year ago in Santa Cruz, California. Glassman, utilizing the chalkboards at the old CrossFit HQ, outlines the objectives of The Broken Science Initiative. He writes on the chalkboard five critical facets of modern science and discusses how they resonate with common sense. We’ve worked hard to create show notes, which include a transcript of the episode with links out to all mentioned references allowing listeners to continue learning about Broken Science. A link to this week’s show notes can be found on BrokenScience.org/podcasts
