Really enjoyed recording this episode with Dan. A lot of food for thought around what types of evidence we might be using in practice and what biases might exist…
I’ll ignore the confusion Star Wars and Star Trek @psychbites.bsky.social, but I will prepare some essential reading / watching for you!
