Emily Unleashed Episode 2 with Dr. Drew

In Episode 2 Emily is joined by Dr. Drew Pinsky.
As a 4th year med student at the University of California in the 1980s, Dr. Drew became a regular guest on the radio show “Loveline,” which catapulted his career in media. The show grew to the point of being nationally syndicated, with Drew co-hosting for over 20 years.
In this interview Emily and Drew focus on critical thinking, especially among younger audiences. Dr. Drew elaborates on the current state of discourse in society, expressing his concern about what he calls a “pandemic of irrational certitude.” He emphasizes that this certitude is often irrational, as it resists the natural uncertainty that comes with rational thinking. He points out that true rationality requires an acceptance of uncertainty and a willingness to engage in open, critical discussions.
To this day Dr. Drew maintains a private practice in addition to hosting several ongoing podcasts.
In an effort to maintain the integrity of open discussion, we are asking all viewers to direct their thoughts and comments to the forums and posts on our website: brokenscience....

Dr Drew does commercials for V-shred. Does that make him less credible?
