In this conversation, we discussed Dustin’s upcoming CSICon talk and his efforts on behalf of skepticism and rationality on TikTok. Dustin also revealed the person perhaps most responsible for his learning of CSI in the first place, and eventually being invited to speak at its conference, none other than Kenny Biddle, who had Dustin as a guest on his live-streamed Skeptical Help Bar.
We also talked about his one-of-a-kind performance on Penn & Teller: Fool Us, and discussed his own $10,000 paranormal & psychic challenge. (Out of the blue I attempted to win the $10K from Dustin, and it doesn’t take psychic powers to predict what happened.)
We also discussed the significance of Project Alpha, his opinion of the New York Times attempt to rehabilitate Uri Geller in its July 8th article: ‘The End of the Magic World’s 50-Year Grudge’, and Dustin revealed which other CSICon speaker he is most looking forward to meeting at this—his first skeptical conference of any kind. Spoiler: it's Bill Nye who I had the pleasure of interviewing just a few days ago—see here.
