Online: Penn &amp; Teller (Penn Fraser Jillette and Teller) are Las Vegas headliners whose act is an amalgam of illusion and comedy. Penn &amp; Teller: Bullshit! aims to debunk what the hosts see as pseudoscientific ideas, supernatural beliefs, popular fads and misconceptions, and often from a libertarian point of view, the political philosophy espoused by both Penn and Teller. The show criticizes proponents of what they perceive as nonsense and dishonesty—bullshit—often citing ulterior political or financial motives. The stated aim of the show is to apply critical thinking to misconceptions, and as is indicated by the show's title, the program adheres to Penn &amp; Teller's characteristically blunt, aggressive presentation.Supernatural subjects of episodes include alien abduction, alternative medicine, and ESP; other episodes cover social issues such as the War on Drugs, animal rights, gun control, and environmentalism. Penn &amp; Teller approach the topics in the manner of Harry Houdini and James Randi (who has appeared more than once on the show), who are known for debunking claims of supernatural powers.</description><language>en</language><docs>http://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification</docs><webMaster>webmaster@blinkx.com (blinkx webmaster)</webMaster><pubDate>Tue, 24 Nov 2009 14:36:00 +0000</pubDate><lastBuildDate>Tue, 24 Nov 2009 14:36:00 +0000</lastBuildDate><image><url>http://tv.blinkx.comhttp://cdn.blinkx.com/store/images/video/b/08/TVShows/bc6dee9420655bca98bc7b0e9f10b36a.jpg</url><title>Watch Full Episodes of Penn</title><link>http://tv.blinkx.com/show/penn-teller-bullshit/1oiIoX6UexfSGd0pDAkpcWFm2X9_BnwRXXE1_g</link></image><item><title>The Vatican</title><link>http://tv.blinkx.com/show/penn-teller-bullshit/VEKBVW8ImeLcn142vb-SA6JnNYo#s7e10</link><description>Penn and Teller head to Rome to learn about the Vatican's inner workings.</description><pubDate>Thu, 27 Aug 2009 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Stress</title><link>http://tv.blinkx.com/show/penn-teller-bullshit/VEKBVW8ImeLcn142vb-SA6JnNYo#s7e9</link><description>Penn and Teller discuss why they believe why people getting worked up and scared by stressful situations is bullshit.

First a man who tries to relieve his stress by going to an aroma therapist to attempt to 'sniff is his stress away'. Second, a teacher who tries to relieve her stress by testing if she has adrenal fatigue the which could lead to her stress problem. And third, an overworked business woman goes to the day spa to reliever her stress problem. Faux medicine and treatments to combat stress is further investigated.

After all, it is supposed to improve life for the handicapped.
