About this episode

David Weiss hosts a debate with Austin Whitsitt about Flat Earth, highlighting issues with Whitsitt's arguments and responses.

\[May 19, 2024\] \[The Lore Lodge\] We brought Austin Whitsitt if @Witsit on to have a good faith discussion and debate about Flat Earth. Typically, I wouldn’t frame anything in the description, but Austin and his team have been sharing edited clips and inaccurate summaries of what happened here all over X/Twitter. Because he’s broken that decorum, I’m inclined to inform the viewer that Austin was incapable of answering any questions and relied on his discord for most of the debate. Show more He often throws out terms he cannot define and claims to have sources but can’t cite them. He responds to questions he can’t answer by saying “I don’t know” or “it doesn’t matter”. After about an hour and forty-five minutes of that, combined with his smug facial expressions and obvious reliance on people not present in the room, I lost my temper. I’ll admit I should’ve been better controlled, but in the end, I don’t feel particularly bad about going off on this snake. Welcome back to The Lore Lodge...
