As this is a show dedicated to the correction of misinformation and popular culture, sharing

the tools for telling what's real from what's not, it's important that we get things right.

But we don't always.

And so today we've got another episode for you dedicated to the correction of errors

in past episodes.

And some of them are surprising.

That's up next on Skeptoid.

You're listening to Skeptoid.

I'm Brian Dunning from Skeptoid.com.

A collection of corrections.

Welcome to another corrections episode of the Skeptoid podcast.

Yes, I do occasionally get things wrong so far.

It's never been anything big that impacted the overall conclusion.

But almost every week there's some little detail that made it past my non-existent facts

checking staff.

And whenever it happens, it's important to set the record straight.

Doubling down on errors does nobody any good.

But admitting them and fixing them sets an example we all want to follow.

As always, I want to advise new listeners that this is not a regular episode.

But the corrections we're going to discuss reference a lot of good ones.

And maybe you'll hear one that you want to check out next.

And hear the original error in all its glory.
