Stormy Decisis

For each of you: what song do you have on your phone/mp3 player/etc. that would most surprise the people who know you well?

Alastair Lichten

What do you think the biggest misconceptions Brits/Americans have from trying to map British & American politics onto each other?

Scotticus Maximus

If you didn't take COVID-19 seriously at first, what event led you to realize the severity of the disease?

Nephthys

Not a question for the AMA, but can you clarify the times? The UK is on British Summer Time (BST), so 2 PM EST = 7 PM in the UK. Is it at 6 PM or 7 PM? Thanks! :)

Alastair Lichten

How do you think schools could better foster skepticism at all ages?

Mike B

What person "on your team" (eg skepticism, atheism, etc) do you wish would shut the fuck up? In other words, is there a person you generally agree with on the big stuff, but they say it badly or have problematic positions, so they need to shut up?

The Scathing Atheist

2PM Eastern in the US = 7PM in the UK is correct. I listed GMT because it can be a reference point for others around the world. I hope this helps.

Jlynn

If given crazy billionaire money what would you do with it? What projects, if any, would you want to do?

fanghur

What do you all think is one of the best uses an individual can use their stimulus check for in this situation? (I'm guessing modest needs is near the top of the list, but I'm curious what else you guys might come up with)

Taru Tikkanen

Mostly for Andy, and Marsh: which is the oddest sweet you've been given at QED?

Sam Schwartz

I'd love to hear from both the 'Murican hosts, as well as the Red Coats.... Short version: Do you guys think the virus is going to create a lasting anti-Chinese sentiment in the "West"? And have you witnessed any particularly egregious examples of it? I've been seeing a huge number of grossly xenophobic comments on Reddit blaming China exclusively for the coronavirus, and most of them seem to end with "You can't trust the Chinese". There seems to be an ongoing circle-jerk around the idea that China's wet markets are exclusively responsible for all the major viruses that we've dealt with in the past decades (with no nuance addressing the conditions that perpetuate them). Not saying there's no blame to be had there, but you get the point... As I read through this crap it's hard to not see the Chinese ending up painted similarly to the Muslim's post 9/11, once life goes back to normal.

Taru Tikkanen

Thanks for asking and answering, I wondered about the starting time, too.

Cassidy Sokolis

What does Heath think of the knife guy (Kiwami Japan) on YouTube? Does that count as ASMR? I don't have a response to those, so I can't tell, but they're cool videos, if he's never seen them.

Don DeNatale

Hey there! What are Noah’s, Lucinda’s, and Heath’s real names?

Melanie Gordon

Noah gave his real name on episode 107 of Scathing Atheist.

The Scathing Atheist

Noah revealed his real name on episode 107 of Scathing Atheist: Aaron Davies. Lucinda and Heath have chosen to keep their secret identities secret. :)

Spinoza's Godzilla

If you could force everyone in the world to read one book, what book would it be?

Paul Freelend

Question for Marsh, though anyone else who wants to jump in is welcome. How does he feel about Mike Ashley possibly selling Newcastle to Saudi investors? How should fans respond when their club is owned and/or operated by terrible people (the Ricketts family owning the Chicago Cubs, the Oystons at Blackpool, Silvio Berlusconi, etc.)?

A turn knees general

When is heath getting a dog? And what punny name will it have?

Liz Rosenberg

Have any of you taken up a new hobby, activity, interest or compulsion (washing hands and disinfecting doesn't count)?

Simo Hyttinen

Pro tip: check the stream on the YouTube channel, it id already up and it will show you the scheduled time in you time zone and you can set a reminder (I get a push notification reminder from the YT app on my phone).

Liz Rosenberg

Eli (and Anna) -- bringing a baby into this new world order, what do you worry about and hope for most?

Liz Rosenberg

What's the best piece of advice anyone ever gave y'all?

Paul Freelend

If you ended up on the receiving end of one of the most tired TV tropes around and had to live inside a video game -- not permanently, just until all this COVID-19 business blows over -- which game would you choose and why is it Animal Crossing: New Horizons? And in case Andy and Marsh were wondering, no, Better Than Life from Red Dwarf does not count.

Stormy Decisis

Heath's real name is Kyong Martinez.

Jon Pierson

On a point of information, is it REALLY Eastern - US/GMT or is it, in fact, EDT and BST? Perhaps if we could have the time in UTC the whole world can calculate the correct time in their own time zone.

Hypatia

How do you think a country that has an official national religion ended up being far less fundamentalist-crazy-religious than the USA (which supposedly does not have a national religion)? Or: Why does so much early atheist thinking seem to come from England? Or: So when does this Brexit thing actually happen? Will all of Ireland/Scotland still be part of the U.K.?

Jen Balogh

Question for Marsh: you’ve been on quite a few GAM episodes the last few months. We love hearing you on the show, but are you ok?? Do they have some sort of blackmail on you? Seriously though, why watch so many bad movies??

Edana

And what breed will he get?

Pinesnake

With all the horrendous BS being spouted by the wonderously unselfaware person that is tRump, how did you guys stop Noah from going on a killing spree in DC? Is it; A- unbreakable chains forged from the tears on republicans that can’t stop your podcasts, B- Noah has fried and broken his programming because there’s so much BS, C- Noah feels it’s adequate punishment for those around him that enable him to be so stupid or D- all of the above plus actually funny ones you all can think of. P.S. I always wanted to do one of these for citation needed! On a lighter note, would Brexit be more palatable if there was a concerted effort to strengthen ties with the commonwealth in much the same way the EU is meant to be run? Ie, a schengen zone style migration system, zero import tax etc.

Niamh Coghlan

To Marsh and Andy -- The NHS is often looked as a bellwether to other European healthcare systems, including Ireland's own HSE, despite their differences. Given current events and especially BoJo's recent stay as an honoured guest in ICU, do you think there will be any major changes in the Tories' traditional hostility toward the NHS?

Niamh Coghlan

I think the "all of Ireland" part was pretty thoroughly sorted starting around Easter of 1916......

Ryan Phelps

If you could get a message to yourself back in time when the lockdowns were started (about a month ago), what would you say?

The Good Crabs

To be fair the Cubs should have seen it coming when they were bought by a family named for a disease that causes bow-legging in children.

The Good Crabs

What is the weirdest kink any of you are actually into? 😁 You know, besides that weird masochistic thing some of us do where we bash our heads against a wall when trying to impart reason on the religious.

Jo

On this note, When everyone is just hanging out together what names do they use? And how often do they get mixed up?

Jo

Not a question, Just wanted to thank everyone for the extra work to put on the live stream every weekend. I really look forward to the break.

Fraa Paul

For Marsh: What was the most infuriating discussion on Be Reasonable, and why? What was the best discussion on the show?

Literal E

Due to a mixup of similarity of names, you are summoned to the White House to appear in the daily shiz show press briefing. If you are vaguely supportive of the president, you are virtually guaranteed to be given direct access to “the microphone” for a few minutes. Would you take the opportunity and play along just to be able to blurt out a few choice sentences in this presser before you are tackled and shipped off to deepest Georgia?

The Good Crabs

Can we get a detailed description of accelerationism and its effects? I think I've heard Heath bring it up twice now and I'd really like to get his thoughts on it in particular.

The Good Crabs

How do you guys feel about Bill Maher overall, as well as his effects on the atheist movement. Full disclosure, him and Penn Jillette were some of my early introductions to atheism. Actually while I'm here how do you feel about Penn Jillette too?

Ann Pollard

Noah, what song do you envision as the soundtrack when you finally murder someone? Because I'm picturing something by Django Reinhart.

Alastair Lichten

What do you think of Steiner schools? I know there's been a lot of crazy/harmful woo around them and the racist views of their founder. But I find the idea of more play and nature based education for younger pupils appealing.

Alastair Lichten

Crazy millionaire money: in your massive mansion would you rather have a fully kitted out Lego room or trampoline room?

Christopher Hansen

Hey Guys! I was wondering what music you guys have been listening to lately? I remember Heath saying at one point a while back that he enjoyed the band Snarky Puppy. Has he heard of Vulpeck? If not, I think he might enjoy it. Thanks to all of you for helping me get through what has honestly been a pretty damn challenging time for me. This has not been the first time you all have helped me, and I am truly grateful.

Alexander Thomas

Andy: What is your favourite InKredulous moment, and why is it Jonathan Jarry's Sam Harris impression? Marsh: Has there ever been a story for Skeptics with a K you've abandoned midway through researching? Eli: Will we ever got another Shakespeare blog post?

My last name managed to offend even Tom!

For Andy and Marsh: Is the coronavirus situation making Brexit even more complicated? Or is everyone focused on the virus and leaving the political bullshit behind for now?

Wibls

If there were social media, exclusively for Atheists, what would it be called and what would be the main thing people would do on it?

Mark Jones

For Andy. How has the lockdown affected the Incredulous recording schedule and will you ever manage to get back on track?

The Good Crabs

Empty-SpaceBook: When after life there's nothing, people are everything.

The Good Crabs

Is it weird that I'm picturing it to both "Don't You (Forget About Me)" and "Damn it Feels Good to be a Gangsta"?
