StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

How about the richest nation in the world, in the history of the world, just gives, you know, a percentage more to science.

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

It would change everything.

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

Absolutely.

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

Yeah, I think you guys are saying the same thing, though.

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

Totally.

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

But I think that goes back to when you talked about the random selection illustration that you gave.

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

What it really does is put a blindfold on bias.

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

And I think for Semmelweis and for Katia, you're looking at unspoken biases that are at play here.

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

Let's just be honest.

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

That's really what it comes down to.

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

And yeah, I think systemically, if you're able to remove that in any way, science benefits as a whole.

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

Yeah, of course.

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

Don't we call that stubbornness?

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

Stubborn, yeah.

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

And that's the problem.

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

I think what also has to happen is the public has to understand that, oh, God, I'm going to get in trouble.

StarTalk Radio
Told You So! with Matt Kaplan

Most of the people look at science like religion.
