Welcome to Holy Koolaid! I'm Thomas. For over a decade, I've been doing one thing on this channel: investigating how we know what we know. How do you distinguish the truth from a convincing lie? What does the evidence actually say, who benefits from us believing otherwise, and how does our own mind trip us up? That's my ballpark. Years of studying human psychology, cognitive biases, logical fallacies, the mechanics of deception, and the inner workings of high control religions and conspiracy movements have given me a toolkit for spotting misinformation. So that's what I do. I dig into BS, propaganda and dogma, religious extremism and conspiracy theories, pseudo-science and pseudo-history of all stripes. I talk to the leading experts in their fields, travel on-site to test claims where I can, and bring back what I find.
