Episode 77: Against Method?
Two Psychologists Four Beers - A podcast by Yoel Inbar, Michael Inzlicht, and Alexa Tullett
Categorie:
Alexa and Yoel tackle Paul Feyerabend, the wild man of philosophy of science. What can we learn from his "anything goes" argument for methodological anarchy? We go deep on the first five chapters of Feyerabend's most famous work, "Against Method," and discuss his (maybe not entirely serious) arguments for extreme theory proliferation, ignoring the data, and Chinese herbal medicine. Also, we discuss which Christmas album is superior: Sia or Dolly Parton.Links:Two Psychologists Four Beers on UntappdSia's Christmas AlbumDolly Parton's Christmas AlbumBaller Christmas TreeGreenwald's Paper on Theory Controversies
