Who likes Penn & Teller's "Bullsh*t"?

(1/4) > >>

pharmmajor:
I'm a huge fan of the show. I think it's one of the best programs out there for shattering outdated and erroneous beliefs. Even the episodes where I disagree with their POV are entertaining and thought provoking. I was wondering if anyone else here likes the piece.

Also, for those of you who are interested, here's the tentative list for the topics they'll be exposing as bullshit in the upcoming season:

- orgasms
- astrology
- 2012 theories
- video game violence
- homeowner's associations
- organic farming
- lie detectors
- stress
- the Vatican
- taxes

imapiratearg:
I like the episode they did about the war on drugs.

Pro pot all the way.

Josefbugman:
Okay, some of those things can be disproved;
- astrology
- 2012 theories
- video game violence
- homeowner's associations
- organic farming
- lie detectors
- stress

Though I would like to see how they define organic farming though.

Some of those on the lists though? Now that is hilarious, disproving taxes? Disproving the vatican? Okay if we are taking the "jack chick" school of theory and the majority of the vatican created Islam and runs the world to stop protestants then yes, yes "the vatican" can be disproved, but if they are going to try and disprove the pope in general then that would be something to see.

Sorry, I just can't see some of these working, I may be getting this program mixed up with other ones.

Be My Head:
I think by bullshit, they are just exposing some aspect of it as really stupid. For instance, homeowners associations, they exist, they however can most certainly be bullshit.

Josefbugman:
ahhhhh, I checked it up on wikipedia and to my eternal embarresment I appear to have got this program mixed up with "mythbusters".

I do apoligise to everyone, but I am leaving the post up so that people can have a laugh at it.
