The clips from episodes 492 and 482 discuss political bias and binary bias, respectively. In episode 492, Michael Shermer explains how people filter information to confirm their political beliefs, and how this is also true for religious beliefs. In episode 482, Adam Grant discusses how binary bias oversimplifies complex issues into two categories, which is a trap that leads to black-and-white thinking. Both clips provide insights into how political bias can affect our thinking and decision-making.
