In the era of fake news and misinformation it can be increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction. We are buried in a deluge of information every day, so how do we identify the bullshit claims among them? Luckily, there are a few easy ways in which you can protect yourselves and others from falling for bullshit. The authors of “Calling Bullshit” teach a course of the same name at the University of Washington, so get ready to learn how to call bullshit from the master-bullshit-callers themselves!

"The Art of Skepticism in a Data-Driven World"

Today's guest is Professor Carl Bergstrom from the University of Washington. Carl has been touring Australia over the last few weeks and we were delighted when he agreed to join us while he was in Melbourne. Carl works across evolutionary biology, informatics and science studies and has become particularly well-known for his work concerning the spread of misinformation and what we can do about it. Together with his colleague Jevin West, Carl developed a university course named ‘Calling Bullshit: Data Reasoning in a Digital World', which they have since developed into a best selling book. In this episode Carl discusses a range of topics including the role institutional norms and incentive structures play in shaping science, the challenges of studying misinformation and why he believes we must urgently turn our collective attention to the study of collective human behaviour if we hope to address our current information crisis.Transcript of the episode available here: https://www.hpsunimelb.org/post/carl-bergstrom-transcript-s2-ep9 Resources related to the episode:Carl's Website: https://ctbergstrom.com/'Calling Bullshit' Website: https://callingbullshit.org/Guardian Article: https://www.theguardian.com/science/2020/aug/01/carl-bergstrom-people-are-using-data-to-bullshitThanks for listening to The HPS Podcast with your current hosts, Samara Greenwood and Carmelina Contarino.You can find more about us on our blog, website, bluesky, twitter, instagram and facebook feeds.

We're coming around the bend and heading into summer, but, before that, we've got too many episodes to count without using all of your fingers. Special guests Dr. Claudia Dozier and Dr. Sarah Lechago will be joining us to talk about applications of synchronous reinforcement and research on diversity, equity, and inclusion coming out of the BADIE Lab. In between those discussions we look at a variety of angles on mand training and explore some behavior assessments we didn't know existed. Finally, we get very skeptical about the world in our latest book club reviewing Calling Bullshit.

Bergstrom and Jevin D. West. This is a book that aims to equip us with the tools to critically evaluate data-driven claims and arguments that we encounter in various aspects of our lives.

Every generation reaches a point where they claim that discourse has gone to hell. But that doesn't mean we're going to miss out on our chance to complain about it as well.Carl Bergstrom is a professor in the Department of Biology at the University of Washington. Though trained in evolutionary biology and mathematical population genetics, Carl is perhaps best known for working across disciplines and integrating ideas across natural and social sciences. Recently, Carl teamed up with Jevin West to launch the Calling Bullshit project, developing a website and course materials for teaching quantitative reasoning and information literacy. That project then grew into Carl's latest book, “Calling Bullshit: The Art of Skepticism in a Data-Driven World.”Carl and Greg sit down and talk about critical thinking, identifying misinformation in a world where it flows so freely, the psychology of debunking and teaching bullshit detection.Episode Quotes:What does the future of calling bullshit look likeWe do need to catch up to the realities of the environment that we live in and we need to adapt the way that our education system works to the way that our culture is changing. And I think absolutely we need to teach some media literacy that involves thinking about social media. We need to be deliberate in teaching critical thinking. We need to teach concepts like lateral reading so that people know how to look into that. Data driven bullshitSo much of the bullshit is data-driven today because the world is so intensely quantified both through the prevalence of all kinds of sensing in the world that we live in, ambient sensors and everything else being recorded and monitored, but also because of this intensely online nature of our lives. That generates a tremendous amount of data about what we're interested in, what we want to buy, where we want to go, who we want to date.Who can we trust for news now?Even if you know, I pick up my iPhone and hit the news app in the morning and I have a couple of intelligent analyses from various places. But, you know, as we talk about, somebody got a lip job, and then there's nine cats that look like Disney princesses, and they're all head to head. And as good of a person as I try to be, you got to see those cats. This kind of is a race to the bottom if you will.Show Links:Guest Profile:Faculty Profile at University of WashingtonCarl Bergstrom's WebsiteCarl Bergstrom on LinkedInCarl Bergstrom on TwitterCarl Bergstrom on InstagramHis Work:Carl Bergstrom on Google ScholarDetecting Bullshit Article on Science.orgCalling Bullshit: The Art of Skepticism in a Data-Driven WorldEvolution

On today's episode of the RecruitingDaily Podcast, William Tincup speaks to Caitlin MacGregor from Plum about calling bullshit on the talent shortage.Plum is a SaaS platform that leverages industrial, organizational psychology, to assess people's innate talents and understand what drives them, gives them a sense of self worth, what drains them and leads to burnout.  The platform can quantify people's innate talents,  their ability to innovate, communicate, work well with others. Their platform is available for mid-size to enterprise companies, to help them in everything from hiring through onboarding, as well as employee development, internal mobility, workforce planning, succession planning, leadership potential, and taking this data across the employee lifecycle.Why is Caitlin "calling bullshit" on the talent shortage?Competition for candidates is at an all time high, so we're calling it a talent shortage. But is that really an excuse to say the status quo has been broken? The way we've been sourcing, treating, and even thinking about hiring talent is broken. So how do we get to the root cause and deal with that? Tune in to find out.What's next for many of us is changing. Your company's ability to hire great talent is as important as ever – so you'll be ready for whatever's ahead. Whether you need to scale your team quickly or improve your hiring process, Greenhouse gives you the right technology, know-how and support to take on what's next.

Misinformation, disinformation, and fake news abound and it's increasingly difficult to know what's true. Our media environment has become hyperpartisan. Science is conducted by press release. Jevin West is an Associate Professor at the University of Washington. He directs the Center for an Informed Public, whose mission is to resist strategic misinformation, promote an informed society, and strengthen democratic discourse. He is co-author with Carl Bergstrom of “Calling Bullshit,” a book on how to spot and refute misinformation.

Are you an imposter? A fraud? Is that feeling self-imposed? Is anything in the workplace really self-imposed? Is the term "Karen" just a mechanism to manipulate? Wow, that got weird and deep fast, right? Imposter syndrome is loosely defined as doubting your abilities and feeling like a fraud. It disproportionately affects high-achieving people, who find it difficult to accept their accomplishments. Many times, women in the corporate world are impacted the most. All reasons to bring on Jess Von Bank to discuss this important issue and how we might be able to remedy this systemic problem that's unequally plagued the workplace for decades.

In Don't @ Me (3:34), Tom discusses a few highlights from the book, "Calling Bullshit" and how they remind him of some important principles in education. Then, Tom is joined by Ken O'Connor (16:00) to discuss his journey from Melbourne to Toronto, to talk assessment & grading (of course), and to learn about his illustrious Field Hockey umpiring career!. Finally, in Assessment Corner (1:11:21), Tom focuses on the idea of teaching to the test and what we can do to try to mitigate the fact that sometimes people’s behavior changes when they know they are being tested.   Ken O'Connor on Twitter: @kenoc7 SBL&G Facebook Page: SBL&G   Achieve Virtual Institute (August 16-18, 2021)   Email the Podcast: tomschimmerpod@gmail.com Podcast on Twitter: @TomSchimmerPod Tom on Twitter: @TomSchimmer Instagram: tomschimmerpodcast Facebook: Schimmer Education Website: www.tomschimmer.com

In this episode, theoretical and evolutionary biologist and professor at the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington, Carl Bergstrom talks with students from the UC Riverside School of Public Policy about the era of "fake news" and how to combat disinformation. About Carl Bergstrom: Bergstrom uses mathematical models and computer simulations to study a wide range of problems in population biology, animal behavior, and evolutionary theory. He is interested in how current norms and institutions shape scientific knowledge. While researchers may be driven by intrinsic curiosity, they are constrained by the realities of the scientific ecosystem in which they operate and motivated by the other incentives — monetary and otherwise — with which they are confronted. He is also the author of the book, "Calling Bullshit". Learn more about Carl Bergstrom via https://www.biology.washington.edu/people/profile/carl-bergstrom Podcast Highlights: “Over the last few years we have seen increasing weaponization of disinformation. Social networks are very vulnerable to the exponential spread of misinformation, but also to injection of disinformation by parties who want to disinform.” - Carl Bergstrom on the topic of why "fake news" seems to be at an all-time high today. “Something like QAnon can not only contradict, but directly challenge the authority of not only media, but also state government agencies.” - Carl Bergstrom on the topic of the deterioration of trust in established institutions. “Anti-vax sentiment can ultimately undermine our ability to fight the pandemic...” - Carl Bergstrom on the topic of disinformation during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Yael really knows her stuff. Which is not surprising, since she pretty much created the framework for digital communications in the public sector from scratch. Follow her @yaelbt. After the Jewish cabal of Yael and Ileana invite Garrett to "lean in" and join the conversation, the trio discuss finding community, contextualize the use and usefulness of social media, and reassure Bubbies everywhere that the Fifth Column community is not a cult. Oy vey.

Jevin West, Associate Professor at the University of Washington and coauthor of the recent book: Calling Bullshit – the Art of Skepticism in a Data-Driven World, joins Bob and Julia to discuss the nature of BS, how it has changed with the emergence of the internet and social media, and when and how to challenge it. Other topics include: how to reestablish trust in information and the danger of “predatory publishing.”

James Finney and I have a most enjoyable chat full of candor about life, childhood, NHS, suicide, spirituality, the way out of the matrix and the un-expressed joy and drudgery of existence. James' intelligence, wit and honesty is a real treat and it was a pleasure to connect with him in such an organic way. Dig in as I'm sure all will be entertained and enthused and maybe even laugh a little.

Statistics don't have to be scary, in fact you don't even have to do any math to understand the basics! This Episode is a great follow up to Episode 1, where we took a look at misinformation and how to keep false news from spreading. This time, we let two books lead us through how to tell lies from the truth - Calling Bullshit, The Art of Skepticism in a Data-Driven World by Carl T. Bergstrom and Jevin D. West, as well as the book A Field Guide to Lies by Daniel J. Levitin. Join us as we learn how to spot the Bullshit and think for ourselves. Warning: Episode contains adult language.

I'm calling bullshit on the stories we are led to believe. I think part of the reason that we shy away from fully owning and stepping into our full spiritual natures is that we don't want to be seen as 'one of them'. Why is it that we must speak in a certain slow tone to be spiritual? Well, I call bullshit, you can be spiritual and kickass, you can be spiritual and call a spade a spade, you can spiritual and [inser whatever the hell you want]. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/michelle-clarke/message

In this episode we chat to Carl Bergstrom and Jevin West authors of Calling Bullshit: The Art of Scepticism in Data-Driven World. Carl Bergstrom is a theoretical and evolutionary biologist and Professor of Biology at the University of Washington. Jevin West is an Associate Professor in the Information School at the University of Washington, he also co-founded the DataLab and directs the Center for an Informed Public. Show notes: @CT_Bergstrom @jevinwest / jevinwest.org Calling Bullshit (Allen Lane - 2020) Calling Bullshit Course @lawrenceyolland / @gemmamilne / @radicalscipod

It's increasingly difficult to know what's true. Misinformation, disinformation, and fake news abound. Our media environment has become hyperpartisan. Science is conducted by press release. Startup culture elevates bullshit to high art. We are fairly well equipped to spot the sort of old-school bullshit that is based in fancy rhetoric and weasel words, but most of us don't feel qualified to challenge the avalanche of new-school bullshit presented in the language of math, science, or statistics. In Calling Bullshit, Professors Carl Bergstrom and Jevin West give us a set of powerful tools to cut through the most intimidating data. You don't need a lot of technical expertise to call out problems with data. Are the numbers or results too good or too dramatic to be true? Is the claim comparing like with like? Is it confirming your personal bias? Drawing on a deep well of expertise in statistics and computational biology, Bergstrom and West exuberantly unpack examples of selection bias and muddled data visualization, distinguish between correlation and causation, and examine the susceptibility of science to modern bullshit. We have always needed people who call bullshit when necessary, whether within a circle of friends, a community of scholars, or the citizenry of a nation. Now that bullshit has evolved, we need to relearn the art of skepticism. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/pbliving/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pbliving/support

Misinformation, disinformation, and fake news abound, and it's increasingly difficult to know what's true and who to believe. What we could all use is a field guide and, thankfully, my next guest has provided us with one. He is Jevin West, Director of the Center for an Informed Public at the University of Washington, and Co-author of Calling Bullshit: The Art of Skepticism in a Data-Driven World.

Now, maybe more than ever before, it is time to learn the art of skepticism.  Amidst compounded complex crises, humankind must also navigate a swelling tidal wave of outright lies, clever misdirections, and well-meant but dangerous mistaken claims….in other words, bullshit. Why is the 21st Century such a hotbed of fake news? How can we structure our networks and their incentives to mitigate disinformation and encourage speaking truth to power? And whose responsibility is it to inform the public and other experts about scientific research, when those insights require training to understand?Welcome to COMPLEXITY, the official podcast of the Santa Fe Institute. I’m your host, Michael Garfield, and in each episode we’ll bring you with us for far-ranging conversations with our worldwide network of rigorous researchers developing new frameworks to explain the deepest mysteries of the universe.This week, we talk to Former SFI External Professor Carl Bergstrom and Jevin West, both at the University of Washington, who recently translated their landmark undergraduate course on Calling Bullshit into an eminently readable and illuminating book from Penguin Random House. In this episode, we discuss their backgrounds and ongoing work in the evolutionary dynamics and information theory of communication, how to stage a strong defense against disinformation, and the role of scientists and laypeople alike to help restore the reasoned discourse we all so desperately need.If you value our research and communication efforts, please consider making a recurring monthly donation at santafe.edu/give, or joining our Applied Complexity Network at santafe.edu/action.

In today's show! We celebrate the life of Nipsey Hussle, musically he was paving a way to be one of the greats but away from the studio he was impacting his community through entrepreneurship and a high business acumen.

Prior to Nipsey's death he was working on a documentary on controversial therapist Dr Sebi, who claimed to cure cancer aids amongst other things. Is there a link?

Did you know? For personal care products, the European Union have banned 1,400 chemicals, Canada 600, and the US just 11. Do you think the FDA is safety testing your personal care products? They don’t. If someone asked Dr. Walsh, “what is the most important thing to for your health other than being positive and happy,” it would be that you absolutely have to get toxic chemicals out of your life. There is a growing body of evidence that chemicals in our environment are contributing to to cancer, autoimmune disease, allergies and asthma, obesity, hormone issues, and more. She firmly believes this is one of the largest contributing factors to the plague of diseases we are facing today. Women, in particular, seem to be extremely vulnerable because of all of the personal care and cleaning products they come in contact with on a daily basis. Listen to this podcast and Dr. Walsh will show you how easy it is to get the chemicals out of your life while still feeling, looking, (and smelling) fantastic. Julie Walsh is a Naturopathic Doctor & Mom of four adorable blue eyed kids. She knows a few things about health. Part of this is due to a formal medical education, but most can be attributed to her personal 20 year quest (or obsession) for "perfect health". It wasn't until she learned that perfection is the antithesis of health that I was actually able to help herself and other women achieve true well-being.
