This podcast (#136) which is an obvious Part 2 follow up podcast to #135, as the intro explains, comes at the tail end of a series of thought debates between Shawn and Ivo with some folks who have a different view point. While the debate is unsettled because there is not sufficient research to support one side, we feel the research leans towards our side of things. However, as the debates went on, it became clear to use that both parties were approaching the debate from a different metric to gauge the beliefs outcomes. We outline this in the introduction to podcast #135 and then move further forward into our dialogue. We hope you find this a productive thought experiment.
