This was recorded ages ago - and Jack forgot all about it! A fallacy is reasoning that is logically incorrect, undermines the logical validity of an argument, or is recognised as unsound. Jack & Colin invited their friend, and expert in the field, Alex Staff, to help try and simplify the concepts and help you notice when a fallacious argument is put in front of you - they are everywhere, every day! The guys carry on with informal fallacies (dipping into some improper premises) in the fifth episode, including: Proof by assertion, Proving too much, Retrospective determinism. Begging the question, and Circular reasoning You can help the guys cover costs at wrongtermmemory.com or buymeacoffee.com/wrongtermmemory - anything donated is appreciated!
