032 - (Emma & Richard) - Believing Is Seeing

<p>A slightly different approach this week as Emma is interviewed by one of her previous guests (Richard Cox, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/4txVC4m0B8bUQ0fGrbcxYb?si=45bd421a3ce348a0" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">episode 21</a>)</p><p>After revealing her uncertainty about the shape of the world in her own episode (<a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/7vdzttousESfkUMJ7Eeo0C?si=1fc3a55bd83347bf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">episode 25</a>), Richard reached out to have this conversation</p><p>Predictably, this conversation has elicited some reaction, not least from David Chandler who has very strong opinions on the subject. He wrote an essay on the subject which you can read <a href="https://davidchandler-61838.medium.com/the-flat-earth-psy-op-16d443084493" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">here</a></p><p>I (Emma) don&#39;t claim to KNOW KNOW very much in this world. There appears to be a lot of nuance and uncertainty and definitely more than meets the eye. I encourage everyone to do their own research and draw their own conclusions</p><p>I encourage you to watch <a href="https://youtu.be/uJLHgMMImow?si=BB_2-YCMy1vZ-bLE" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Allegedly Dave&#39;s Biggest Lie of All</a> and specifically navigate to <a href="https://youtu.be/uJLHgMMImow?si=9jxOcSfhQg9PNo3C&t=170" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">2:50</a> where the living room scene occurs</p><p>A few days before this episode aired, I had a long (over three hours) debate with two friends who have different opinions to mine. This conversation got me thinking and I accept that there are some flaws in the flat earth hypothesis, just as there are flaws in the heliocentric model</p><p>Further discussion with another friend, led her to send me the image I have used for this episode - maybe this is the truth of our realm...</p><p>Wishing you all well with your musings in 2026</p>
