Post Description

Penn & Teller: Bullshit! is een sinds 2003 lopende Amerikaanse televisieserie die wordt gepresenteerd door het illusionisten-duo Penn & Teller. De show is erop gericht pseudowetenschap, geloof in bovennatuurlijke zaken, esoterische  hypes en veelvoorkomende misverstanden te ontkrachten aan de hand van feitelijke argumenten en deskundige bronnen.

Dit op dezelfde toon van uitgesproken meningen en commentaar voorzien door Penn & Teller als de eigen shows. Vaak worden alternatieve motieven aangewezen waarom voormannen van onderwerpen in het programma hun ideeën aan anderen willen opdringen.
