I once thought that creationism was the craziest unscientific idea that we would have to deal with. Now the fertile sheltered echo chambers provided by social media have produced worse things like anti-vax, flat-earthism, Apollo revisionists, and other crack-pot conspiracy theories that rational folk commonly encounter. This episode explores some of my history in countering creationist apologists and their favourite strawman arguments. If you find yourself in an encounter, this episode provides you with some pointers on how best to successfully engage and win a debate, while taking the high road.
