Welcome to Skeptical Sunday. I'm your host, Jordan Harbinger. Today I'm here with Skeptical Sunday co-host comedian and skeptic Michael Rogelio. On the Jordan Harbinger show, we decode the stories, secrets, and skills of the world's most fascinating people and turn their wisdom into practical advice that you can use to impact your own life and those around you. Our mission is to help you become a better informed, more critical thinker.
During the week, we have long formed conversations with a variety of amazing folks. From spies to CEOs, athletes to authors, thinkers, performers, on Sundays, though, it's Skeptical Sunday, a rotating guest co-host and I break down a topic you may have never thought about and debunk common misconceptions about that topic, such as tipping, acupuncture, astrology, diet pills, self-help cults, bottled water, and more. If you're new to the show or you want to tell your friends about the show, I suggest our episode starter packs. These are collections of some of our favorite episodes on persuasion and negotiation, psychology, disinformation, junk science, crime and cults, and more that'll help new listeners get a taste of everything we do here on the show.
Just visit jordanharbinger.com slash start or search for us in your Spotify app to get started. Now tell me if this sounds familiar. You walk up to a counter, you order some food, the person taps the order into an iPad and then turns around and says, it's gonna just ask you a quick question, and you think, oh, it's gonna ask me a question. This inanimate iPad suddenly developed curiosity. What could it possibly want to know that you, the human being standing right here who just took my order, can't explain?
