Haydn on Fake Noûs

I didn't find this compelling, because I think what counts as a "philosophical" topic is related to the fact that radical skepticism is/seems to be a live option. I.e., that the main thing ethics and epistemology have in common is that they are concerned with questions that have generated extreme, persistent disagreement among apparently rational people for millennia. In which case, skepticism's popularity doesn't seem like evidence that philosophers are either especially biased or especially virtuous. And if they're not especially biased, I don't see why it matters if philosophers are more skeptical than other experts.
