Leslie spoke about CFIC for a few minutes at the 2026 WeCanReason conference in early May. The brief talk wasn’t recorded but seemed to resonate with many attendees, so today’s bonus episode is Leslie recreating the speech for Podcast for Inquiry subscribers.
As with all Diatribes, the opinions expressed are Leslie’s alone and do not represent CFIC or any other organization.
