About this episode
The episode explores the biases of smart individuals and the challenges of communication in relationships.
“Cam, you’re smart enough to always be ‘right’, and I can’t be bothered anymore.” Oof. In our twenties, Col stopped talking to me for a few years. Fair enough. Smart people aren’t less biased. They’re just better at explaining why they’re “right”. That was me, and I was insufferable. There’s a poster of fallacies and biases in Col’s toilet, and it prompted some terrible jokes and useful reflection: If you’re always right, you’re definitely not.
