Welcome to Skeptical Sunday.

I'm your host, Jordan Harbinger.

Today I'm here with Skeptical Sunday co-host, writer and researcher Nick Pell.

On the Jordan Harbinger show, we decode the stories, secrets, and skills of the world's most fascinating people and turn their wisdom into practical advice that you can use to impact your own life and those around you. Our mission is to help you become a better informed, more critical thinker. During the week, we have long-form conversations with a variety of amazing folks, spies, CEOs, athletes, authors, thinkers, and performers. On Sundays, though, it's Skeptical Sunday, a rotating guest co-host and I will break down a topic you may have never thought about and debunk common misconceptions about that topic. Topics such as the death industry, homeopathy, hypnosis, ban foods, internet porn, and more, and if you're new to the show, or you want, it's funny, because whenever I read one, I'm like, that was Nick, that was Nick, that was Nick, like all the weird, all those super weird ones, it's like, oh, okay, and I have to update that list because now we have all kinds of just icky stuff in there that's not listed. But then again, I want people to continue listening to this podcast, so I don't know, maybe we'll keep the list as is. Anyway, if you're new to the show or you want to tell your friends about the show, I suggest our episode starter packs. These are collections of our favorite episodes on persuasion, negotiation, psychology, disinformation, junk science, crime and cults, and more that'll help new listeners get a taste of everything we do here on the show.

To add to that list, cutting your own balls off, depending on if that episode is out yet, because, yes, that's another Nick Pell, skeptical Sunday.

Anyway, just visit Jordan Harbinger.com slash start or search for us in your Spotify app to get started.

Today, decidedly less disgusting than the

aforementioned castration, breakfast cereal, whether you eat that or something else every morning,

well, it still has to do with dicks though, doesn't it? We'll get there. Whether you eat that

or something else every morning, chances are good that you don't give it a lot of thought. It just sits

there being corn flakes
