In this special episode, we talk to Melanie Trecek-King, one of this year’s conference speakers who will be joining us all the way from the United States. As well as working as an associate professor, Melanie runs Thinking is Power, an organisation whose mission is to teach critical thinking skills to both students and everyone else. Her resources are a great primer for skepticism, tradching people about how to spot pseudoscience, common logical fallacies, what science is, and more. It was really good to talk with Melanie ahead of November’s conference in Dunedin, and we’re looking forward to meeting her in person.
