How do we put a number on hypocrisy? In this episode, we'll Frankenstein a formula for hypocrisy, to help us dissect what factors make hypocrisy (or as I call them, the spinning gears and pulled levers in the Willy Wonka hypocrisy machine).

Listen to find out how to rate a hypocrite.

Here is the formula:

Hypocrisy (H) is the observed difference between someone’s claimed beliefs (CB) minus their perceived behavior (PB), with an intent (I) to gain something from that claim, as perceived by a given audience (A) divided by their gained success (G) times 9

H = ((CB - PB) × I × A) / (G × 9)

(The “x 9” is added as a scaling factor to yield 1-100 results)
