In the one hundred and thirty first episode we explore the Countless Counterfeit Fallacy, starting with proclaiming the huge number of dodgy affidavits he collected and the many terrible scientific studies which show hydroxychloroquine cures Covid. Then Dinesh D'Souza fails to prove election fraud but makes some lofty claims.
In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Boris Johnson talking about the many people who believed he didn't break the law, his sister Rachel lying about all the evidence of tactical voting, and Suella Braverman creating lots of new criminals so that she can complain about all the criminals there suddenly are.
In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from Peter Kreeft, Loose Ends, Expedition Unknown: The Hunt for Extra-terrestrials, and The Lost King.
Jim and Mark go head to head in Fake News, the game in which Mark has to guess which one of three Trump quotes Jim made up.
Then we talk about the GOP debate.
And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week.
