This podcast episode explores Street Epistemology (SE), a conversational technique for examining the reliability of beliefs. It outlines the principles, preparation, execution, and evaluation of SE dialogues. SE uses Socratic methods to encourage individuals to reflect on the reasons behind their convictions, without aiming to change specific beliefs. The guide covers fostering a respectful environment, asking effective questions, and addressing common justifications like faith and relativism. It stresses the importance of promoting sound reasoning rather than pushing personal views. The resource offers practical advice for conducting these conversations in various settings and emphasizes continuous self-improvement through reflection and community engagement. Essentially, it's a guide to having productive discussions that encourage critical thinking about how we know what we know.
