Professor Steven Pinker has spent his life thinking about thinking. Now he wants us to join him. For this series Professor Pinker has created a critical thinking toolkit which he hopes will help all of us make better decisions about – well, everything. Steven will be joined by some big thinkers, and people who have to deal with the consequences of irrationality, as he sets out to steer us away from common fallacies and logical traps set by our own animal brains.

Think with Pinker is produced in partnership with The Open University.

Take chances, make mistakes and get messy! Random Theory is here to blow your mind and challenge the way we talk about science. A theory is: a plausible or scientifically acceptable general principal or body of principals offered to explain a phenomena. I’m Grace Dirig, your host and around here at TKOR we like to think the Random Theory best explains how we come up with ideas! Miss Frizzle was the first person to challenge the way I saw the world! Yeah, you know the super cool girl from the magic school bus? She taught me to take chances, make mistakes and get messy! Here at The King Of Random (TKOR) we take that statement far… sometimes a little too far. We may have “silly projects” but in reality there is REAL science that goes into every project! Science is a critical element to everything here on earth AND BEYOND! When you begin to let your imagination wonder, like we do here at TKOR, every single day involves curiosity, discovery, or learning something new! So if you’re ready, hop on the magic Random Theory bus and get curious as we explore every theory we can find!Have an advertising opportunity or just want to say hi? Email: randomtheorypod@gmail.com
