As you know, we occasionally go back and take a second look at fallacies we&#39;ve explored before, but we&#39;re never going to get to them all, and we keep seeing examples out there, so we thought we&#39;d gather some together in some special episodes.

The Donald J. Trump Guide to Logical Fallacies

Jim and Mark use the insane ramblings of a tiny-handed narcissist to explain logical fallacies.  Each episode we focus on a single logical fallacy and, using examples from Trump, UK politics and pop culture, explore how and why it fools people, how to avoid committing it yourself, and how to counter it in an argument.
