"We get the least amount of time and have to exercise the most patience of anyone on the show" - From calling out psychics to debunking flat-earthers, James often appears as a guest on TV programs as a skeptic, often leaving him feeling like the wet blanket.
"It's basically the same set of things that you value for humanity." - James breaks down what atheists, humanists and secular humanists are.
"The scientific world's PR people have not been the best over the years." - How skeptics get a bad rap and why they are so important, especially in these times.
