I am so glad you could join us. I'm your host Mo Gaudet. This podcast is nothing more than a conversation between two good friends sharing inspiring life stories and perhaps

some nuggets of wisdom along the way.

This is your invitation to slow down with us.

Welcome to slow more. Political correctness.

Political correctness, I believe is one of the biggest issues with our world today. We are told that we have freedom of speech and that debate leads

to better outcomes, but in reality we are only allowed freedom of speech when what we're saying will not offend anyone

or contradict commonly agreed views. We are only free as long as we are politically correct.

And that holds true at work with friends, even in close relationships.

And it just drives me crazy. It feels a little bit like the first

person that said the earth is not flat. There is evidence such as the curvature

of the horizon that the Earth is more likely to be a sphere,

but that person was silenced because that view contradicted what scientists of the time believed.

Now interestingly there is not a place where political correctness is more demanded than

within science.

If you question a commonly agreed theory in science, you'd better be super solid, which obviously

is not the state when you're starting to doubt or question something, or if you're not that

solid you'll be slammed, literally crushed by your peers and by the establishment.

And there is no more place within science that is more taboo if you want than contradicting

Darunism and neo-Darunism.

My guest today has chosen to be politically incorrect.

Dr Stephen Seymiere is openly contesting much of what is attributed to evolution and natural selection.

Stephen received his PhD in the philosophy of science from the University of Cambridge.
