Well, there is a perfect example of the crazy bias in this podcast:

In the podcast with Tom Clark, about materialism, Alexis don't stop interrupting him (in this podcast, I think that Alexis speaks almost as much as Tom Clark, if not more!!!). But when Rusty Wright says that the young earth hypothesis is, according to him, supported by a lot of evidences, here he doesn't say anything!!!

Come on, Young Heart (!!!). You can be serious... Alexis should have interrupt him at that point and argue with him on that.

But no, because this foundamentalist christian is not a materialist (Alexis's belief), everything goes (Intelligent Design, young earth hypothesis, and so on). Even when Tom Clark says that there is strong evidences that Jesus rised from the dead, nothing is said against that...

It's really the world (and science) upside-down.
Perhaps you should just look at the podcast as a convenient resource for researching both sides of an argument. We all have our thoughts and biases on these issues. I think someone would have a very hard time justifying the young earth hypothesis, and I don't believe there is evidence for it (depending on how you define "young" of course). But I don't really care if someone wants to talk about it on the podcast. Just focus on what you find interesting...
