Ep47 -- The Finger Butt Fallacy

Ep47 -- The Finger Butt Fallacy

This week I discover how a NSFW photo trick -- that makes it appear as if a naked butt is above your head -- helps explain what's wrong with everything from our understanding of high egg prices to the Chicago School's "rational markets" argument.

MENTIONED THIS WEEK:

YouTube: Paul Rudd explains the finger-butt technique

YouTube: The Kids in the Hall "Crush Your Head" sketch

The BIG Newsletter: "Hatching a Conspiracy"

Pluraslistic.net: Yanis Varoufakis's "Technofeudalism: What Killed Capitalism?"

Counterpunch: "Can Freedom and Capitalism Co-exist?"
