"Don't try this at home! …This trick just might kill you! … Fool your friends, amaze your family and scam your way to free drinks!"

This week Derek & Swoopy talk with Brian about his work. Digging into the biggest scam of all, they reveal that Brian Brushwood is the epitome of the modern skeptic. Beneath the bar room bravado lurks the mind of well-studied, articulate critical thinker.
