You're listening to The Michael Shermer Show. Hey everybody, it's Michael Sirmer. Time for another episode of the Michael Shermer Show. As always brought to you by you know your favorite magazine, Skeptic magazine. There it is in print.

I always bring this up because, you know, there's a lot of online magazines now, which are all cool. I subscribe to a bunch of them myself. And we're online. You can go to skeptic.com slash magazine and get your digital subscription. But wouldn't it be cool to actually hold a magazine in your hands?

Old school. I still get physical newspapers. Oh my God, that's how crazy we are. And we keep them all in print almost all over. Back issues going back to volume one, number one, with Isaac Asimov on the cover, 1992.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is $1.49.

We already have this episode, so unlocking it is cheap and permanent: the full transcript (83 minutes, 16,397 words), segment and word-level timestamps, and .txt, .srt, .vtt and word-level JSON downloads, as many times as you like, forever.
