“I have long listened to the FLI podcast with great admiration for their critical, timely discussions. Recently, however, since the change of hosts, the podcast has been platforming fear mongering LessWrong nerds that stack conjecture upon conjecture and jargon upon jargon to make for untasteful, overly speculative arguments ((fe fi fo) fum? fume?).
