Scientific method, for the win!
I assume he's referring to the discussion he had with Sam Harris here: https://samharris.org/podcasts/what-is-true/

I haven't listened to it yet.

That being said, it seems self defeating to say that; if truth is defined by evolution, why think that evolution is true?

Further, it seems only a few degrees separated from the postmodern epistemologies he opposes.

Nevertheless, when he starts talking about his core competencies, I find the man very interesting to listen too.
