Penn & Teller’s Bullshit!

Filed under: Culture — Tim @ 4:53 am

A month ago my arch-nemesis, David Veksler, made a post regarding a new television show on Showtime called Bullshit! In addition to receiving the highly sought after Tim Swanson Stamp of Damntasticness Approval, it’s brought to you by a pair of unlikely entertainers (at least to me), infamous magicians and charmers Penn & Teller.

The shows format is thus: a 30-minute mockumentary ridiculing current events, fads and superstitions. The actual topics that they jeer, jive and debullshitize include:

- Feng Shui & Bottled Water
- Environmental Hysteria
- Talking to the Dead
- Smoking and Babies
- Plastic Surgery
- And much much more

And yea I am biased, P & T are admitted evil libertarian atheists — a double whammy.
