When are we going to get more Penn & Teller's BULLSHIT?

Teenage libertarian starter pack.

Into the trash this show went

>comfy

Fool Us is comfier

Loved the show so much until I learned there was good amount of bullshit they dished out as well.
I wonder if they did it just to prove that everyone should research things for themselves.

Honestly, probably. Now that I think about it this show was probably a large part of the reason I ended up libertarian-leaning. I watched this show before I was even aware of such political distinctions. But once I got back into it a couple years ago and realized the amount of bias they had I actually did look back on it less fondly, even though I still really enjoyed the episodes.

>>64702615
I spent a good several days watching over the episodes and playing video games in between so yea I look back on it as a comfy experience.

admit it, has one of your beliefs ever been trashed by the Trashman himself?

>>64702567
Bull

you could tell they were running out of bullshit when they started discussing lawns

>>64702698

They admit in episode one that they aren't always right, just calling out where others are wrong or lying.

So yes, the point was to make you question things is all.

>They admit in episode one that they aren't always right, just calling out where others are wrong or lying.

The show was willfully manipulative though.

>>64702930
Examples?

>>64703215
When they develop opposing points of view they always choose the worst possible proponent for the view they want to debunk.
Their 'experiments' are laughable, and they even admit that, but what's the point of doing them in the first place? It just shows that they want to be being-right-porn, and not actually portray facts.

Sure it's easy to do that when you're debunkung homeopathy or magnetic yoga matts, but it's also very dishonest.

A few episodes of this were complete crap. The fitness one for example would make /fit/ roll in their grave.
>Claiming someone died from cod liver oil.
>Claiming no supplements work at all.
>Claiming steroids make you huge with no effort.
>Claiming none of it matters anyway unless you're naturally born swole as fuck you can never be big.

Okay.

9/11 episode was pure shilling too.
>This firefighter saw the planes hit the towers! He rescued someone. That proves 9/11 was a terrorist attack and not the Jews.

And hypnotism:
>Hypnotism which is a proven medical procedure that has been used for centuries successfully by psychiatrists, psychologists and magicians is totally fabricated and a scam!

Were they ever wrong about anything?

>>64704551
They admitted to being wrong about second-hand smoking.

>>64702698
They wanted the finale episode to be "Bullshit is Bullshit" were they list all the factual inaccuracies they have made throughout the series.

Why did they attack Christianity in 13 different episodes but never once touched Islam or even Scientology?

>>64704807
because christianity is the majority that lives in this country

>>64704551
they wanted to do a show near the end that just called bullshit on their own shit but the network wouldnt let them. theyve admitted to being wrong about recycling as well

>>64704872
The majority population doesn't believe in fucking magnet therapy or feng shui and they bothered to lob some bombs at those.

>>64704919
It's not that the network didn't let them, it's that they didn't know it was their final season.

>>64702930
As is everyone. It's impossible to eliminate bias in human beings regardless of their ideology. That's the point. Bullshit is bullshit, so is everything and every person that has ever existed. General honesty is a lie.

>>64703215
They are talking about world peace and one of the guys they interviews identifies as a socialist, the screen freezes the needle scratches the record and they say

"You know Hitler called himself a socialist, and he wasn't a first class peace keeper"

It's just a lazy way to discredit someone without actually addressing the other person's opinion on the subject.

>>64702567

>comfy

Why do /v/ tourists use this word so much?

That's entirely NOT the point of the show.
