Data and Science with Glen Wright Colopy is a podcast covering critical scientific reasoning, particularly from a data science / machine learning / statistics perspective. Episodes typically focus on understanding of how to be better scientists and critical thinkers for the practical purpose of being a better data scientists. Previously called: ”Pod of Asclepius”

The third and final of our (planned) short tutorials on key modes of critical reasoning. Abduction is common called "inference to the best explanation"...so it's easy to see why this concept is important for data scientists.
Huub Brouwer (Utrecht University) walks us through a brief tutorial on how even a world-famous infer-er can get this wrong and how data scientists can avoid the same mistake.
