072 | Circular Reasoning: Redux | Why We Do What We Do

Revisit this oldie but goodie. We have employed discussions about circular reasoning frequently, so listen in for a refresher on this logical fallacy. Abraham and RYANO jump into the world of logical fallacies. Particularly, circular reasoning. We all fall to its peril from time-to-time. Listen in for how to spot it, examples, and why it can cause a little trouble in reasoning and understanding why it is, that we do what we do! ;)
