Dara O’Briain on Medical Quackery
Being Friday night, I thought that I would provide you with some of the great skeptical comedy of Dara O’Briain. The wonderful thing about comedy is that it often allows people to approach controversial subjects with less potential criticism than would be subjected to an opinion piece. With good delivery, people who agree with you will laugh at the joke (laughing with you) and those that oppose your point of view will likely do the same (laughing at you). Consequently, comedy can be a powerful medium by which to challenge people and get an unpopular message out to the masses, as exemplified by the clip below.
Dara O’Briain tells it like it is (or should be) about various delusions pretending to be medicine.
