How To Spot a Logical Fallacy Part 1




Wrong Term Memory show

Summary: 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 lay the groundwork in this first episode - starting with formal fallacies, including an Appeal to Probability.
