Remember the books Lauren pulls out in Episode 38, in Kieran's apartment? Well, we discuss those books in the Episode 38 chapter, but I took it upon myself to read over 600 pages of Victor Hugo's "The Man Who Laughs," so I could see how it was related to the Purple Hyacinth. The story is long and complex, but I think it is relevant, so buckle up and enjoy this 20 minute story and theory time. To learn more about the other books mentioned in the episode, listen to the Ep 38 podcast! I'd put this presentation together originally for the Fandom Scythe Discord Presentation Night, which is awesome btw.

Like many other mental illnesses, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is often misunderstood and clumped into a stereotypical category. Many people believe that the disorder is just physical behaviors, such as persistent organization, washing one's hands all the time, or checking the lock on the door constantly. But what people don't realize is that OCD is a lot more than just these behavioral actions. David Adam, who has OCD and has extensively studied the disorder, joins us this week to help dispel any myths and pre-conceived perceptions.

Most of us agree that science aims to tell us what is true about the world. But how do we get at the truth by using theories and models that deliberately, pervasively, and ineliminably distort what they are about? How does a model that makes wholly unrealistic, even impossible, assumptions about reality help explain it and provide us with understanding? In Leveraging Distortions: Explanation, Idealization, and Universality in Science (MIT Press, 2021), Collin Rice tackles this puzzle by examining how idealization figures in the development of models and how such distortions help provide otherwise inaccessible explanations. Rice, an associate professor of philosophy at Bryn Mawr College, takes issue with the dominant view of scientific explanation as primarily a matter of providing causal information, and argues that providing information about what is irrelevant is what often does the explanatory work. The book presents a well-structured challenge to many of the views of scientific explanation that have dominated philosophy of science for decades.

Hershall, the episode went off flawlessly (muchly without flaws) in some regards... My speech was not with enticing words, because I was having trouble speaking and the Deacon & Songleader called me out! We ended today by talking about the how we as a world are once again consuming everything we can from the tree of knowledge. We know how that worked out for the first humans yet we think we can somehow escape their fate.  The goal is to know and try to understand God.

Doug breaks down some of the best pre-game and in-game traditions in college football. When Tony Romo says he thinks Jets quarterback Zach Wilson will be a "top 3 to 5 quarterback in the next couple of years", Doug thinks the comment is exaggerated but also thinks that Romo is probably coming from a place of having seen a lot of Zach Wilson this pre-season. When Aaron Rodgers said he asked the Packers to be in on major decisions made by the team, he forced GM Brian Gutekunst to answer questions about consulting him at every turn. In our "I Got A Guy" segment Doug previews the Ohio State game with Cleveland Dot Com writer Nathan Baird, and previews the Thursday night Pac12 games with lead Pac12 game analyst Yogi Roth.
