Here Be Dragons
Some of the editing here is a little silly, but I thought this was a pretty great introduction to skepticism. Here’s hoping this show gets of the ground, I’d absolutely love to see it.

go science chair go!
sour cream on a microwave burrito is a modern day dragon? dammit i eat those!
Yeah you know I didn’t really quite get that one either. Also, yoga? I mean, I guess yoga can get all spiritual and crap, but for the most part I thought doing yoga was a fitness activity, like gymnastics.
Anyways, all in all I still like this video.
yeah from what chance said yoga can be pretty spiritual and stuff and it makes his wife angry.
Hahaha that’s awesome. I know his wife is an atheist, I guess Chance is agnostic? I’ve actually been curious about that.
I know this comment is rather late, but if you watch Penn and Teller’s “Bullshit,” they actually go into debunking a lot of what yoga claims to do. Not just the spiritual stuff, either. They speak to a couple experts who say that holding the particular position after a certain amount of time no longer has any use to the body as far as fitness goes.
I didn’t really understand the sour cream thing, though…?
Yeah some of Penn and Teller’s Bullshit is really good. I think they reach sometimes, or kind of call bullshit on an entire topic when it’s only a small part of it that’s bullshit, but overall I like the show and I really like what it’s trying to do.
