on the edge and 62 00:04:07,730 --> 00:04:05,370 with a little bit of pair of psychology 63 00:04:10,090 --> 00:04:07,740 just to keep it interesting I think this 64 00:04:12,740 --> 00:04:10,100 evening that I want to start with 65 00:04:16,789 --> 00:04:12,750 something I guess it's a little bit 66 00:04:19,539 --> 00:04:16,799 humorous I told people in the chat room 67 00:04:23,570 --> 00:04:19,549 about this before this for the show 68 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:23,580 phrases that make me crazy I don't know 69 00:04:28,010 --> 00:04:25,890 I I this comes up once in a while on 70 00:04:31,220 --> 00:04:28,020 other shows but there are some phrases 71 00:04:34,610 --> 00:04:31,230 that make me absolutely nuts so I'm I 72 00:04:37,070 --> 00:04:34,620 have a short list and then you can jump 73 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:37,080 into the chat room or Twitter and throw 74 00:04:43,070 --> 00:04:38,970 in some of yours if you don't hear it on 75 00:04:45,170 --> 00:04:43,080 this list but number one it is what it 76 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:45,180 is I mean that really does make me nuts 77 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:47,010 what does that mean it's like a 78 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:50,250 tautology in phosphate it is what it is 79 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:53,250 that's like saying one equals one you 80 00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:55,770 know I think it's what people say what 81 00:04:59,210 --> 00:04:57,690 they want you to shut up or when they're 82 00:05:01,730 --> 00:04:59,220 losing an argument they go well it is 83 00:05:04,670 --> 00:05:01,740 what it is and say okay I think I 84 00:05:07,850 --> 00:05:04,680 already knew that getting tired of the 85 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:07,860 phrase reaching out we used to say I'm 86 00:05:14,840 --> 00:05:10,770 going to you know give a call or talk to 87 00:05:18,050 --> 00:05:14,850 or get a hold of that now we reach out 88 00:05:20,780 --> 00:05:18,060 to people we and you know we don't reach 89 00:05:22,490 --> 00:05:20,790 out to our customers anymore you reach 90 00:05:25,610 --> 00:05:22,500 out to our partners everyone's our 91 00:05:27,620 --> 00:05:25,620 partner and they've also pressed partner 92 00:05:28,730 --> 00:05:27,630 at the service as a verb we're going to 93 00:05:32,089 --> 00:05:28,740 partner with so 94 00:05:34,730 --> 00:05:32,099 so so that's so partnering makes me nuts 95 00:05:37,129 --> 00:05:34,740 at the end of the day I'm not sure what 96 00:05:38,719 --> 00:05:37,139 that means at the end of the day did 97 00:05:41,900 --> 00:05:38,729 that used to mean something else did 98 00:05:44,330 --> 00:05:41,910 that mean when if we could jump ahead to 99 00:05:47,150 --> 00:05:44,340 I think at the end of the day is 100 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:47,160 supposed to mean when all is said and 101 00:05:53,270 --> 00:05:50,610 done why do we do these phrases anyway 102 00:05:58,100 --> 00:05:53,280 and drive me nuts at the end of the day 103 00:06:01,129 --> 00:05:58,110 I don't know what else do we have here 104 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:01,139 oh yes to tell you the truth when people 105 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:02,970 tell me that I honestly do sometimes say 106 00:06:06,260 --> 00:06:04,650 does that mean that in the future unless 107 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:06,270 you tell me you're telling the truth I 108 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:08,849 should worry that you're you're not 109 00:06:12,740 --> 00:06:10,289 telling me the truth why are you telling 110 00:06:14,899 --> 00:06:12,750 me the truth now why don't you just tell 111 00:06:16,700 --> 00:06:14,909 me the truth all the time what does have 112 00:06:18,710 --> 00:06:16,710 that agreement between you and I you'll 113 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:18,720 always tell me true and then you don't 114 00:06:23,300 --> 00:06:20,610 have to preface your comment or with all 115 00:06:25,909 --> 00:06:23,310 due respect when someone starts out with 116 00:06:27,140 --> 00:06:25,919 with all due respect I have the feeling 117 00:06:30,100 --> 00:06:27,150 I'm about to get slapped in the face 118 00:06:34,100 --> 00:06:30,110 otherwise why would they say that a 119 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:34,110 net-net I think that means the bottom 120 00:06:38,270 --> 00:06:36,330 line I'm not sure I one doesn't bother 121 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:38,280 me too much I don't know a lot of these 122 00:06:44,209 --> 00:06:41,130 come from the world of business let's 123 00:06:48,469 --> 00:06:44,219 see oh how about 50 is the new 30 50 is 124 00:06:50,659 --> 00:06:48,479 not the new 30 I'm 57 I don't feel 37 I 125 00:06:54,709 --> 00:06:50,669 feel 57 I know what I felt like when I 126 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:54,719 was 30 and i think you know I'm 65 190 127 00:06:58,999 --> 00:06:57,330 pounds i'm in good health I i think i'm 128 00:07:02,149 --> 00:06:59,009 doing well for a 50 year old but I'm not 129 00:07:06,020 --> 00:07:02,159 30 I mean it does that mean is like this 130 00:07:08,180 --> 00:07:06,030 is 100 the news 70 why do people say 131 00:07:10,279 --> 00:07:08,190 things like that I think I has to do 132 00:07:12,469 --> 00:07:10,289 with our culture of youth we're terribly 133 00:07:14,930 --> 00:07:12,479 afraid of growing old and terribly 134 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:14,940 afraid of dying so we say things like 50 135 00:07:19,189 --> 00:07:17,250 is the new 30 when you're 30 you know 136 00:07:22,279 --> 00:07:19,199 that you have not lived half your life 137 00:07:23,990 --> 00:07:22,289 and when you're 50 you know that you 138 00:07:26,870 --> 00:07:24,000 know you can hear the clock ticking not 139 00:07:29,149 --> 00:07:26,880 loudly but it's clicking okay what's 140 00:07:33,559 --> 00:07:29,159 next failure is not an option but you 141 00:07:36,379 --> 00:07:33,569 know what it is 250 may not be the new 142 00:07:37,730 --> 00:07:36,389 30 but it's long enough to be alive to 143 00:07:40,700 --> 00:07:37,740 know that you will fail with things 144 00:07:42,740 --> 00:07:40,710 that's how we learn we fail and we try 145 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:42,750 something else you know most scientific 146 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:45,090 experiments and then failure but they 147 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:47,010 point you in the direction to do you 148 00:07:50,510 --> 00:07:48,690 know to do it right I understand what 149 00:07:53,570 --> 00:07:50,520 they mean I you know I guess what they 150 00:07:55,970 --> 00:07:53,580 mean is try really hard but when you 151 00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:55,980 tell someone failure is not an option I 152 00:07:59,480 --> 00:07:57,930 wonder if the amount of pressure you put 153 00:08:02,090 --> 00:07:59,490 on them isn't going to hurt their 154 00:08:04,820 --> 00:08:02,100 performance how about everything happens 155 00:08:07,250 --> 00:08:04,830 for a reason I think we said that to 156 00:08:11,450 --> 00:08:07,260 make ourselves feel better I think some 157 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:11,460 things are just you know random does 158 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:13,050 everything have to have if everything 159 00:08:18,260 --> 00:08:16,050 happened for a reason I guess that would 160 00:08:21,770 --> 00:08:18,270 mean you believe in predestination that 161 00:08:24,740 --> 00:08:21,780 means you have no choice everything that 162 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:24,750 ever happens to you was preordained at 163 00:08:30,110 --> 00:08:26,610 your birth or before your birth I don't 164 00:08:32,270 --> 00:08:30,120 know everything happens I mean there is 165 00:08:34,510 --> 00:08:32,280 a reason you know if you fall down it's 166 00:08:36,589 --> 00:08:34,520 because you tripped over something but I 167 00:08:38,810 --> 00:08:36,599 don't know I think people say that when 168 00:08:42,020 --> 00:08:38,820 they wish they had had a different 169 00:08:43,670 --> 00:08:42,030 outcome oh here's another one the way 170 00:08:46,070 --> 00:08:43,680 people use the word literally I 171 00:08:47,270 --> 00:08:46,080 literally died laughing no you didn't 172 00:08:50,270 --> 00:08:47,280 because you're telling me that you 173 00:08:53,570 --> 00:08:50,280 laughed so you didn't die one time out 174 00:08:55,490 --> 00:08:53,580 of football forecast so that was in a 175 00:08:59,030 --> 00:08:55,500 forecast my gosh with a football show 176 00:09:01,190 --> 00:08:59,040 and the one of the announcer said that 177 00:09:02,660 --> 00:09:01,200 he literally ripped his head off when I 178 00:09:04,100 --> 00:09:02,670 would expect a player's head to be 179 00:09:06,110 --> 00:09:04,110 rolling around on the field literally 180 00:09:07,670 --> 00:09:06,120 means it actually happened so you can't 181 00:09:10,700 --> 00:09:07,680 literally die laughing you can build 182 00:09:12,850 --> 00:09:10,710 that you can laugh very very hard I'm 183 00:09:15,610 --> 00:09:12,860 being really anal aren't I I understand 184 00:09:18,350 --> 00:09:15,620 bear with me I'm allowed to be anal 185 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:18,360 because I'm a psychologist tip them and 186 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:20,010 we are a bit odd if you haven't if 187 00:09:23,420 --> 00:09:21,450 you've known as psychologists you know 188 00:09:26,300 --> 00:09:23,430 we're odd maybe that's why we go into 189 00:09:27,890 --> 00:09:26,310 psychology then the last one on my list 190 00:09:30,650 --> 00:09:27,900 is whatever doesn't kill you makes you 191 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:30,660 stronger you really you ever seen 192 00:09:35,900 --> 00:09:32,970 anybody have a stroke or how about a 193 00:09:38,090 --> 00:09:35,910 persistent vegetative state I think 194 00:09:39,829 --> 00:09:38,100 there's a lot of things that don't kill 195 00:09:42,500 --> 00:09:39,839 you that don't make you stronger I 196 00:09:45,110 --> 00:09:42,510 understand the notion behind it and 197 00:09:49,220 --> 00:09:45,120 check out the chat room here let's see 198 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:49,230 road warrior

some articles I 210 00:10:25,150 --> 00:10:21,120 want to go through I'm going to talk a 211 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:25,160 little bit about why paranormal and 212 00:10:32,420 --> 00:10:28,170 psychology bangs heads why I think it 213 00:10:34,790 --> 00:10:32,430 shouldn't and let's see oh and then our 214 00:10:38,510 --> 00:10:34,800 topic today our real-life psychology 215 00:10:40,910 --> 00:10:38,520 topic will be depression because it is 216 00:10:45,290 --> 00:10:40,920 the most common disorder on the planet 217 00:10:48,100 --> 00:10:45,300 no matter where you go on the planet the 218 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:48,110 most common emotional disorder will be 219 00:10:54,110 --> 00:10:51,170 there will be there will be depression 220 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:54,120 so let's see here let's jump into what's 221 00:11:00,230 --> 00:10:56,610 a new found some really cool stuff this 222 00:11:02,030 --> 00:11:00,240 week oh by the way remember last week we 223 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:02,040 were talking about the Charlie Charlie 224 00:11:07,490 --> 00:11:05,490 game I talked about I don't know that I 225 00:11:10,310 --> 00:11:07,500 started that but it popped up on a few 226 00:11:12,860 --> 00:11:10,320 other paranormal talk radio shows I'd 227 00:11:16,190 --> 00:11:12,870 like to think I started it because we'd 228 00:11:18,380 --> 00:11:16,200 make my ego even bigger but anyway I 229 00:11:20,210 --> 00:11:18,390 heard or maybe I'm just more sensitive 230 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:20,220 to it since I you know since I read 231 00:11:28,070 --> 00:11:25,490 about it let's start with let's see 232 00:11:31,070 --> 00:11:28,080 young men okay here's an article young 233 00:11:34,490 --> 00:11:31,080 men are facing a crisis of masculinity 234 00:11:37,730 --> 00:11:34,500 and that's a pretty common thing these 235 00:11:39,680 --> 00:11:37,740 days the masculine of men but a leading 236 00:11:41,870 --> 00:11:39,690 psychologist has warned the young men 237 00:11:43,910 --> 00:11:41,880 are facing a crisis of masculinity due 238 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:43,920 to excessive use of video games and 239 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:48,170 pornography now online porn is a problem 240 00:11:52,490 --> 00:11:50,970 there's a therapist will tell you it's a 241 00:11:54,980 --> 00:11:52,500 problem it's a problem for men because 242 00:11:56,900 --> 00:11:54,990 they become addicted to it and then they 243 00:11:58,340 --> 00:11:56,910 find that and if you've got little kids 244 00:12:02,090 --> 00:11:58,350 in the family put your hands over their 245 00:12:04,670 --> 00:12:02,100 ears i guess i don't know it's it is 246 00:12:07,130 --> 00:12:04,680 hard for your female partner to compete 247 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:07,140 with you know with what you're seeing on 248 00:12:09,929 --> 00:12:08,850 the screen okay anyway back to the 249 00:12:12,839 --> 00:12:09,939 article 250 00:12:15,719 --> 00:12:12,849 psychologist and professor emeritus at 251 00:12:17,579 --> 00:12:15,729 Stanford University Philip Zimbardo now 252 00:12:20,369 --> 00:12:17,589 he's like one of the top handful of 253 00:12:22,079 --> 00:12:20,379 names in psychology he's uh he's written 254 00:12:23,939 --> 00:12:22,089 like six million books and he's made 255 00:12:26,069 --> 00:12:23,949 several million videos and he's just you 256 00:12:27,929 --> 00:12:26,079 know if you've if you've had even one 257 00:12:30,179 --> 00:12:27,939 psychology class you've heard that ain't 258 00:12:34,229 --> 00:12:30,189 Philip Zimbardo you've actually got that 259 00:12:36,839 --> 00:12:34,239 little beard little chin kind of beard 260 00:12:41,369 --> 00:12:36,849 and black hair he looks evil but he's a 261 00:12:43,949 --> 00:12:41,379 really nice guy Oh anyway anyway he's 262 00:12:48,359 --> 00:12:43,959 been around a long time and this is part 263 00:12:50,899 --> 00:12:48,369 of his latest book man disconnected so 264 00:12:57,269 --> 00:12:50,909 anyway he spoke about the results of his 265 00:12:58,979 --> 00:12:57,279 study on on BBC and he said our focus is 266 00:13:01,379 --> 00:12:58,989 on young men who play video games to 267 00:13:04,979 --> 00:13:01,389 excess and do it in social isolation 268 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:04,989 they are alone in their room now with 269 00:13:08,579 --> 00:13:06,970 freely available pornography which is 270 00:13:10,619 --> 00:13:08,589 unique in history because it used to 271 00:13:12,599 --> 00:13:10,629 have to pay for it they're combining 272 00:13:14,460 --> 00:13:12,609 playing video games and as a break 273 00:13:16,769 --> 00:13:14,470 watching on average two hours of 274 00:13:17,999 --> 00:13:16,779 pornography a week just a wild guess 275 00:13:21,569 --> 00:13:18,009 here but I'm thinking that's a 276 00:13:23,969 --> 00:13:21,579 conservative figure so Zimbardo says 277 00:13:25,619 --> 00:13:23,979 there was a crisis among young men hire 278 00:13:27,929 --> 00:13:25,629 a number of whom were experiencing a new 279 00:13:30,869 --> 00:13:27,939 form of addiction to excessive use of 280 00:13:34,109 --> 00:13:30,879 pornography and video games and he also 281 00:13:36,089 --> 00:13:34,119 talked about this as a TED talk and he 282 00:13:38,369 --> 00:13:36,099 cited the example of a mother he met 283 00:13:40,739 --> 00:13:38,379 while conducting the study whose son 284 00:13:43,649 --> 00:13:40,749 does not see the problem in playing 285 00:13:48,179 --> 00:13:43,659 video games for up teen up to 15 hours a 286 00:13:50,159 --> 00:13:48,189 day that sounds pretty excessive so he 287 00:13:53,569 --> 00:13:50,169 said this is affecting the minds of 288 00:13:55,829 --> 00:13:53,579 young men and it actually functionally 289 00:13:58,409 --> 00:13:55,839 changes their their brain that changes 290 00:14:01,349 --> 00:13:58,419 the reward center of their brain which 291 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:01,359 is where dopamine primarily is at work 292 00:14:06,359 --> 00:14:03,970 and their brain comes to need and want 293 00:14:09,239 --> 00:14:06,369 the video games and the porn in order to 294 00:14:12,059 --> 00:14:09,249 feel you know reasonably good so their 295 00:14:13,939 --> 00:14:12,069 brains are being digitally rewired and 296 00:14:16,710 --> 00:14:13,949 you can see how that could be a problem 297 00:14:19,609 --> 00:14:16,720 now this is complicated research because 298 00:14:23,610 --> 00:14:19,619 it also overlaps with a social 299 00:14:25,590 --> 00:14:23,620 psychology for example we don't really 300 00:14:28,530 --> 00:14:25,600 leave that watching violent video games 301 00:14:32,190 --> 00:14:28,540 makes children violent now that's a 302 00:14:35,670 --> 00:14:32,200 correlation a correlation is when two 303 00:14:37,890 --> 00:14:35,680 variables move predictably together so 304 00:14:41,340 --> 00:14:37,900 we know for example that has hours of 305 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:41,350 violent TV for example a violent video 306 00:14:48,450 --> 00:14:44,890 games go up the number of violent acts 307 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:48,460 go up but correlation just means that 308 00:14:54,570 --> 00:14:51,370 two things are related you can't make a 309 00:14:56,790 --> 00:14:54,580 causal statement because when we study 310 00:14:58,950 --> 00:14:56,800 it more deeply we find it's just simply 311 00:15:00,600 --> 00:14:58,960 more likely that violent kids play more 312 00:15:03,450 --> 00:15:00,610 violent games and they watch more 313 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:03,460 violent TV so you have to be careful 314 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:05,050 when you hear things like this because 315 00:15:10,380 --> 00:15:06,730 you have to ask yourself are they saying 316 00:15:14,220 --> 00:15:10,390 that a causes B your a is simply related 317 00:15:16,620 --> 00:15:14,230 to be but this damask you'll d 318 00:15:19,500 --> 00:15:16,630 masculinization boy try saying that when 319 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:19,510 you got allergies is it's quite a topic 320 00:15:25,710 --> 00:15:22,210 we hear about it a lot men feel like 321 00:15:27,900 --> 00:15:25,720 they're put in the position of women 322 00:15:30,269 --> 00:15:27,910 still would like their males to be 323 00:15:32,490 --> 00:15:30,279 reasonably masculine but at the same 324 00:15:34,230 --> 00:15:32,500 time very sensitive and cry at movies 325 00:15:37,769 --> 00:15:34,240 and all that and it's a little hard to 326 00:15:40,410 --> 00:15:37,779 do both and we're not exactly hard wired 327 00:15:44,130 --> 00:15:40,420 that way you know men produce androgens 328 00:15:50,030 --> 00:15:44,140 primarily testosterone and women prove 329 00:15:53,579 --> 00:15:50,040 it produce estrogens primarily estrogen 330 00:15:58,740 --> 00:15:53,589 so it goes a little bit against our 331 00:16:00,120 --> 00:15:58,750 wiring I think it's not a bad thing for 332 00:16:03,449 --> 00:16:00,130 the two sexes to learn how to 333 00:16:05,220 --> 00:16:03,459 communicate better but there are there 334 00:16:06,870 --> 00:16:05,230 is a lot of research out there and a lot 335 00:16:09,690 --> 00:16:06,880 of men are complaining a little bit you 336 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:09,700 know I can't I can't be both but I think 337 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:11,890 women can relate to because that they 338 00:16:16,710 --> 00:16:14,290 feel like they have to fill so many 339 00:16:18,780 --> 00:16:16,720 roles during the day let's say analog 340 00:16:21,050 --> 00:16:18,790 hole a scan this also relate to the 341 00:16:23,670 --> 00:16:21,060 hours upon hours of TV that people watch 342 00:16:27,780 --> 00:16:23,680 or even reading books yeah but in a 343 00:16:30,090 --> 00:16:27,790 different way excuse me watching TV is a 344 00:16:32,490 --> 00:16:30,100 very passive activity doesn't do much 345 00:16:35,550 --> 00:16:32,500 for your brain and your brain really is 346 00:16:37,380 --> 00:16:35,560 a use it or lose a proposition I saw a 347 00:16:40,170 --> 00:16:37,390 piece of research is said if you play 348 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:40,180 two games a scrabble a week or two gay 349 00:16:44,310 --> 00:16:42,250 or two sessions of games with friends 350 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:44,320 you would greatly reduce the chance of 351 00:16:48,030 --> 00:16:46,690 ever developing Alzheimer's and that's 352 00:16:50,610 --> 00:16:48,040 because when you play games like that 353 00:16:53,910 --> 00:16:50,620 you make your brain do something novel 354 00:16:56,010 --> 00:16:53,920 but when you watch TV you simply watch 355 00:16:58,230 --> 00:16:56,020 it's not a whole lot going on in your 356 00:16:59,760 --> 00:16:58,240 brain I'm not sure that would count if 357 00:17:02,190 --> 00:16:59,770 you're watching stuff like the history 358 00:17:04,319 --> 00:17:02,200 channel on the other hand it's my 359 00:17:07,350 --> 00:17:04,329 opinion I don't have any research about 360 00:17:09,449 --> 00:17:07,360 this but it's my opinion that's surfing 361 00:17:12,060 --> 00:17:09,459 the net is good for your brain because 362 00:17:13,710 --> 00:17:12,070 you keep if you're truly surfing you're 363 00:17:15,360 --> 00:17:13,720 hopping around and you can't you keep 364 00:17:17,010 --> 00:17:15,370 ending up the places you weren't at 365 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:17,020 before and you know you start out 366 00:17:22,439 --> 00:17:20,530 looking up you know how many gallons of 367 00:17:24,900 --> 00:17:22,449 gas your car holds and an hour later 368 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:24,910 your wheat you're reading about the 369 00:17:29,010 --> 00:17:27,010 migration patterns of whales you know 370 00:17:32,820 --> 00:17:29,020 that's that's new stuff that's good for 371 00:17:34,860 --> 00:17:32,830 you playing games is good for you there 372 00:17:38,100 --> 00:17:34,870 was a really famous study called the nun 373 00:17:40,770 --> 00:17:38,110 study you know like nuns the other women 374 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:40,780 with the hats on I went to Catholic 375 00:17:46,710 --> 00:17:44,050 school so I had nuns anyway I you know 376 00:17:50,670 --> 00:17:46,720 group of psychologists and psychologists 377 00:17:53,130 --> 00:17:50,680 sort of noticed that nuns tended not to 378 00:17:56,130 --> 00:17:53,140 develop dementia the most common form of 379 00:17:58,020 --> 00:17:56,140 dementia of courses Alzheimer's so they 380 00:17:59,400 --> 00:17:58,030 asked a group of nuns if at the end of 381 00:18:01,470 --> 00:17:59,410 their lives they would donate their 382 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:01,480 brains to science I didn't even know you 383 00:18:06,510 --> 00:18:03,730 could do that I only recently found out 384 00:18:09,030 --> 00:18:06,520 that as Catholics can do that and we can 385 00:18:10,590 --> 00:18:09,040 be cremated and you know here I thought 386 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:10,600 I was a good Catholic and you all the 387 00:18:15,900 --> 00:18:12,250 rules but let's get back to our nuns 388 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:15,910 anyway so as they died and that they 389 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:17,650 also tended to live you know quite a 390 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:20,530 long life into their 80s what they found 391 00:18:25,830 --> 00:18:22,690 were these really healthy looking brains 392 00:18:27,510 --> 00:18:25,840 and you know the best connection they 393 00:18:29,970 --> 00:18:27,520 could make were that these nuns they 394 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:29,980 were school sisters of Mildred um you 395 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:31,570 know they taught their whole life they 396 00:18:35,790 --> 00:18:34,210 are always used in their brain and using 397 00:18:38,220 --> 00:18:35,800 their brain to help prevent the 398 00:18:41,100 --> 00:18:38,230 development of these I'm simplifying a 399 00:18:43,980 --> 00:18:41,110 little bit here but is amyloid protein 400 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:43,990 plaques that sort of kill brain tissue 401 00:18:48,990 --> 00:18:46,930 so yeah if you use your brief you use 402 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:49,000 your brain you're probably not going to 403 00:18:58,159 --> 00:18:55,159 dementia is it's rare for a person with 404 00:19:02,690 --> 00:18:58,169 a graduate degree to get dementia unless 405 00:19:04,580 --> 00:19:02,700 they are biologically predisposed oh you 406 00:19:06,950 --> 00:19:04,590 know predispose some people simply are 407 00:19:08,630 --> 00:19:06,960 going to get just like people who never 408 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:08,640 smoked are going to get cancer I mean 409 00:19:13,399 --> 00:19:11,010 there are some things that that you know 410 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:13,409 we have a genetic marker for and you 411 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:14,850 know what are you going to do right 412 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:18,330 otherwise you know I'll surfing the net 413 00:19:23,990 --> 00:19:21,210 playing games reading books on new 414 00:19:26,289 --> 00:19:24,000 things those things oh you know they all 415 00:19:31,669 --> 00:19:26,299 work your brain and I think they're good 416 00:19:34,250 --> 00:19:31,679 I think fiction is good because when you 417 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:34,260 watch when you read fiction I think 418 00:19:38,210 --> 00:19:35,610 you're trying to make pictures in your 419 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:38,220 brain and your and you're creating the 420 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:40,530 characters to go along again I don't 421 00:19:46,810 --> 00:19:43,850 have any research to back that up but 422 00:19:48,980 --> 00:19:46,820 rachel says she watches mostly 423 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:48,990 documentaries I think that would be good 424 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:51,570 for your brain watching documentaries 425 00:19:56,870 --> 00:19:55,530 would be like surfing the net but I 426 00:19:59,000 --> 00:19:56,880 think a lot of people are kind of 427 00:20:00,799 --> 00:19:59,010 surprised to hear that surfing and that 428 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:00,809 would be good for you but it is good for 429 00:20:04,730 --> 00:20:02,610 you and playing certain kinds of games 430 00:20:06,260 --> 00:20:04,740 are good for you especially you know 431 00:20:10,730 --> 00:20:06,270 games like Scrabble where you really 432 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:10,740 have to work a bit now before we move on 433 00:20:17,930 --> 00:20:15,690 to our next topic tomorrow is the second 434 00:20:21,890 --> 00:20:17,940 five weeks of the summer session so at 435 00:20:24,890 --> 00:20:21,900 9am I got a brand new class of students 436 00:20:27,409 --> 00:20:24,900 ready to rock and roll we have we meet 437 00:20:29,810 --> 00:20:27,419 twice a week for hours each time it's 438 00:20:33,649 --> 00:20:29,820 brutal for them it's a little hard for 439 00:20:34,940 --> 00:20:33,659 me too it's a long time to talk but you 440 00:20:38,870 --> 00:20:34,950 know one of the very first things we 441 00:20:42,049 --> 00:20:38,880 cover and in psychology is who are these 442 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:42,059 people because people are a little 443 00:20:47,419 --> 00:20:45,210 confused about you know what is a 444 00:20:52,460 --> 00:20:47,429 counselor what is a psychologist what is 445 00:20:54,350 --> 00:20:52,470 a psychiatrist and the the biggest 446 00:20:57,529 --> 00:20:54,360 distinction if you only took one thing 447 00:21:00,950 --> 00:20:57,539 away from this is that a psychiatrist is 448 00:21:03,580 --> 00:21:00,960 a medical doctor they get a medical 449 00:21:06,859 --> 00:21:03,590 degree and then they do 450 00:21:09,649 --> 00:21:06,869 study in psychology partly by doing it 451 00:21:11,409 --> 00:21:09,659 working in psychiatric wards there is a 452 00:21:13,729 --> 00:21:11,419 level of psychiatrist called a 453 00:21:16,549 --> 00:21:13,739 psychoanalyst and they go to a special 454 00:21:18,830 --> 00:21:16,559 school for two more years and then lots 455 00:21:21,139 --> 00:21:18,840 of more training by they're there 456 00:21:23,450 --> 00:21:21,149 they're pushing 40 by the time they're 457 00:21:25,129 --> 00:21:23,460 in private practice but now these are 458 00:21:26,659 --> 00:21:25,139 the folks that charge four or five 459 00:21:29,419 --> 00:21:26,669 hundred dollars a session and want to 460 00:21:31,299 --> 00:21:29,429 see you several times a week so I don't 461 00:21:34,489 --> 00:21:31,309 know how many of us can afford to see a 462 00:21:35,989 --> 00:21:34,499 psychoanalyst alright so psychiatrists 463 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:35,999 are medical doctors and they are the 464 00:21:40,970 --> 00:21:38,330 only people that can prescribe 465 00:21:43,190 --> 00:21:40,980 medication okay there's a couple 466 00:21:46,070 --> 00:21:43,200 exceptions they're hardly worth going 467 00:21:48,619 --> 00:21:46,080 into but some psychologists and the army 468 00:21:50,509 --> 00:21:48,629 I believe can do it and there is one or 469 00:21:53,450 --> 00:21:50,519 two states that with additional training 470 00:21:56,299 --> 00:21:53,460 or allowing psychologists to prescribe a 471 00:21:58,669 --> 00:21:56,309 limited number of it but a psychiatrist 472 00:22:01,729 --> 00:21:58,679 is a medical doctor everybody else isn't 473 00:22:03,499 --> 00:22:01,739 okay the psychologist generally is a 474 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:03,509 person who has a graduate degree in 475 00:22:08,269 --> 00:22:05,730 psychology and then we have all these 476 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:08,279 other flavors we have social workers we 477 00:22:14,090 --> 00:22:11,129 have certified clinical social workers 478 00:22:16,789 --> 00:22:14,100 we have mental health counselors we have 479 00:22:18,919 --> 00:22:16,799 something that's relatively new 20 to 25 480 00:22:22,039 --> 00:22:18,929 years being relatively new called an LPC 481 00:22:25,430 --> 00:22:22,049 that's a licensed professional counselor 482 00:22:27,799 --> 00:22:25,440 get a masters degree in counseling as 483 00:22:29,830 --> 00:22:27,809 one of my degrees is and then you go sit 484 00:22:31,879 --> 00:22:29,840 and you get a license anybody and 485 00:22:34,789 --> 00:22:31,889 primarily that is so you can get 486 00:22:37,669 --> 00:22:34,799 reimbursed by you know by insurance 487 00:22:40,970 --> 00:22:37,679 companies and I tried that very briefly 488 00:22:45,109 --> 00:22:40,980 and some insurance companies in the late 489 00:22:47,019 --> 00:22:45,119 90s we're reimbursing at I guess ten 490 00:22:49,879 --> 00:22:47,029 dollars an hour and you believe that I 491 00:22:55,129 --> 00:22:49,889 think if you've worked hard enough you 492 00:22:56,149 --> 00:22:55,139 could make that McDonald's anyway so try 493 00:22:57,879 --> 00:22:56,159 to keep that part straight a 494 00:23:01,099 --> 00:22:57,889 psychiatrist is a medical doctor 495 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:01,109 everybody else isn't when people are you 496 00:23:05,419 --> 00:23:03,450 know our ailing psychologically I tell 497 00:23:08,330 --> 00:23:05,429 them if it's at all possible you know go 498 00:23:10,580 --> 00:23:08,340 see a psychiatrist first because that 499 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:10,590 they this is what they do and they're 500 00:23:15,910 --> 00:23:12,690 comfortable prescribing the medications 501 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:15,920 your GPA is a little less comfortable 502 00:23:22,180 --> 00:23:19,250 you know the EA is always watching how 503 00:23:24,310 --> 00:23:22,190 many controlled substances and they're 504 00:23:26,650 --> 00:23:24,320 not quite as happy writing out 505 00:23:29,350 --> 00:23:26,660 prescriptions for xanax or valium or 506 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:29,360 whatever and they'll pretty much you 507 00:23:33,340 --> 00:23:31,970 know give you an antidepressant you know 508 00:23:36,090 --> 00:23:33,350 even if you are complaining about 509 00:23:38,650 --> 00:23:36,100 anxiety and you know these days 510 00:23:41,410 --> 00:23:38,660 insurance companies don't require you to 511 00:23:43,890 --> 00:23:41,420 get a pre-authorization psychiatrists 512 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:43,900 are I don't think that they're not 513 00:23:49,330 --> 00:23:46,010 they're not that much more expensive 514 00:23:51,010 --> 00:23:49,340 than doctors and I imagine from what 515 00:23:53,050 --> 00:23:51,020 I've heard the deductibles are about the 516 00:23:54,790 --> 00:23:53,060 same but this is what they do all day 517 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:54,800 long now what you're not going to get 518 00:23:59,340 --> 00:23:56,570 these days from a psychiatrist is 519 00:24:02,380 --> 00:23:59,350 therapy they're going to manage your 520 00:24:04,360 --> 00:24:02,390 medications so typically a person might 521 00:24:06,790 --> 00:24:04,370 see a therapist once a week and see a 522 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:06,800 psychiatrist every maybe once every 523 00:24:12,910 --> 00:24:09,050 month or three months you know to treat 524 00:24:14,620 --> 00:24:12,920 their meds but if you can especially if 525 00:24:16,900 --> 00:24:14,630 you feel like your problem is severe I 526 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:16,910 would try to see a psychiatrist first 527 00:24:21,850 --> 00:24:19,250 and believe me I'm not knocking your GP 528 00:24:24,190 --> 00:24:21,860 it's just this is you know that this is 529 00:24:25,750 --> 00:24:24,200 not what they do and they don't get a 530 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:25,760 terrible amount of training in 531 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:28,610 psychology they get some and some GPS 532 00:24:38,380 --> 00:24:30,530 are very good at this I don't want to 533 00:24:39,910 --> 00:24:38,390 upset GPS okay so let's see analog hole 534 00:24:41,500 --> 00:24:39,920 says I was reading a study that showed 535 00:24:43,570 --> 00:24:41,510 that meditation helps with things like 536 00:24:46,330 --> 00:24:43,580 dementia and helps increase your mental 537 00:24:50,620 --> 00:24:46,340 activity it supposedly creates more gray 538 00:24:52,510 --> 00:24:50,630 matter it does it does actually now you 539 00:24:55,630 --> 00:24:52,520 have gray matter and white matter and 540 00:24:57,730 --> 00:24:55,640 your brain gray matter are essentially 541 00:25:00,580 --> 00:24:57,740 and again I'm simplifying the neurons 542 00:25:03,970 --> 00:25:00,590 and white matter is the fatty coating 543 00:25:08,170 --> 00:25:03,980 called myelin it covers the transmitting 544 00:25:11,730 --> 00:25:08,180 part the axon of the neuron and I know 545 00:25:14,380 --> 00:25:11,740 and I just read a study about this and 546 00:25:17,770 --> 00:25:14,390 part of the part of the reason it seems 547 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:17,780 to do this is that meditation tends to 548 00:25:23,590 --> 00:25:20,210 shut down a lot of your emotions and it 549 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:23,600 just lets your brain rest but in a 550 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:26,210 really good study where they did MRIs 551 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:28,730 they found that even people that started 552 00:25:32,820 --> 00:25:29,770 late in life in bed 553 00:25:34,410 --> 00:25:32,830 tation an MRI showed more in grey matter 554 00:25:39,420 --> 00:25:34,420 so yeah you're right you're absolutely 555 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:39,430 right alrighty so I was a good point I'm 556 00:25:44,430 --> 00:25:41,890 glad you brought that up analog Oh an 557 00:25:46,650 --> 00:25:44,440 American and roll road warrior it's very 558 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:46,660 seldom I've gotten the feeling a doctor 559 00:25:52,590 --> 00:25:48,850 or psychiatrist really cares why I am 560 00:25:55,260 --> 00:25:52,600 sorry to hear that I've known a lot of 561 00:25:56,220 --> 00:25:55,270 psychiatrists in my time and there there 562 00:25:57,960 --> 00:25:56,230 there were there were one or two 563 00:26:00,150 --> 00:25:57,970 stinkers in there but I thought they 564 00:26:02,310 --> 00:26:00,160 cared your general practitioner is too 565 00:26:04,230 --> 00:26:02,320 busy there you know and and they are 566 00:26:06,900 --> 00:26:04,240 this is going to sound odd but they're 567 00:26:10,170 --> 00:26:06,910 not paid well they need the cram in as 568 00:26:12,780 --> 00:26:10,180 many patients a day as they can so you 569 00:26:14,850 --> 00:26:12,790 know they're not they don't have an hour 570 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:14,860 to talk to you about your feelings of 571 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:17,050 depression or to figure out if you have 572 00:26:22,410 --> 00:26:19,810 something else but you know said you 573 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:22,420 going to see a psychiatrist they do have 574 00:26:29,430 --> 00:26:24,930 you no time to talk to you about that 575 00:26:33,980 --> 00:26:29,440 okay let's move on to our our next topic 576 00:26:38,580 --> 00:26:33,990 here this is uh this is another study 577 00:26:42,390 --> 00:26:38,590 ten things happy people don't know I 578 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:42,400 don't care for okay ten things happy 579 00:26:47,070 --> 00:26:45,490 people don't care for age doesn't mean 580 00:26:49,860 --> 00:26:47,080 they don't care about aging it means 581 00:26:52,770 --> 00:26:49,870 that to a happy person age is just a 582 00:26:56,130 --> 00:26:52,780 number okay they're they're not obsessed 583 00:26:59,130 --> 00:26:56,140 with it they're not spending their you 584 00:27:01,650 --> 00:26:59,140 know time worrying about aging happy 585 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:01,660 people are not overly concerned about 586 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:03,730 what other people's think people think 587 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:05,290 or say and then that tells me that 588 00:27:12,210 --> 00:27:09,010 person has good self-esteem and good 589 00:27:13,890 --> 00:27:12,220 self concept because when we do get too 590 00:27:16,110 --> 00:27:13,900 wrapped up and what other people think 591 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:16,120 of us we're giving them an awful lot of 592 00:27:20,250 --> 00:27:18,490 power over us and then you know this 593 00:27:22,590 --> 00:27:20,260 could be your parents it could be your 594 00:27:24,690 --> 00:27:22,600 partner could be anybody I mean these 595 00:27:26,340 --> 00:27:24,700 are people you love and care about but 596 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:26,350 they don't get to be in charge of your 597 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:28,450 brain and don't put them in charge your 598 00:27:33,150 --> 00:27:30,970 brain when you get good feedback that 599 00:27:36,120 --> 00:27:33,160 make sense that yes of course use that 600 00:27:37,710 --> 00:27:36,130 but if you like something somebody else 601 00:27:39,300 --> 00:27:37,720 doesn't like something but I'm the hell 602 00:27:41,310 --> 00:27:39,310 with them I mean you like it that's good 603 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:41,320 enough it's kind of like you know when 604 00:27:45,389 --> 00:27:43,690 someone comes up to you and says here 605 00:27:46,950 --> 00:27:45,399 try this like my girlfriend likes 606 00:27:50,039 --> 00:27:46,960 chicken livers now she hasn't done this 607 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:50,049 to me and it's using example I I cannot 608 00:27:53,369 --> 00:27:51,970 eat chicken livers but other people 609 00:27:55,529 --> 00:27:53,379 think because they like them you will 610 00:27:57,869 --> 00:27:55,539 like them too it's the same kind of 611 00:27:59,909 --> 00:27:57,879 thing we're not all wired the same her 612 00:28:02,759 --> 00:27:59,919 tongue is wired to like fried chicken 613 00:28:05,310 --> 00:28:02,769 livers my tongue is wired to gag if a 614 00:28:06,990 --> 00:28:05,320 chicken liver touches it anyway I think 615 00:28:08,899 --> 00:28:07,000 I think that's a really important one 616 00:28:11,820 --> 00:28:08,909 and I think we really have to learn to 617 00:28:14,639 --> 00:28:11,830 you know to give ourselves credit to 618 00:28:16,619 --> 00:28:14,649 take care of ourselves number three jobs 619 00:28:19,529 --> 00:28:16,629 that's not to say happy people are 620 00:28:21,149 --> 00:28:19,539 unemployed the key to our the key idea 621 00:28:23,820 --> 00:28:21,159 and again this is a really good one is 622 00:28:25,980 --> 00:28:23,830 that you're not your job your job is 623 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:25,990 part of your life and it's an important 624 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:28,450 part of your life it puts a roof over 625 00:28:34,740 --> 00:28:30,730 your head it provides some socialization 626 00:28:37,230 --> 00:28:34,750 but so much more of you is not your job 627 00:28:40,289 --> 00:28:37,240 your your relationships your hobbies so 628 00:28:45,029 --> 00:28:40,299 maybe you are very active in a church or 629 00:28:47,190 --> 00:28:45,039 an organization we know this is a 630 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:47,200 problem especially for males and we'll 631 00:28:52,049 --> 00:28:48,970 talk about this on a different show but 632 00:28:56,039 --> 00:28:52,059 when males lose their jobs they take a 633 00:28:58,139 --> 00:28:56,049 big self-esteem hit and to the point 634 00:28:59,580 --> 00:28:58,149 that sometimes they won't even tell 635 00:29:03,539 --> 00:28:59,590 people for a while that they've lost 636 00:29:05,940 --> 00:29:03,549 their jobs fear that's an interesting 637 00:29:08,070 --> 00:29:05,950 one fear is not real well I don't know 638 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:08,080 if I agree with that but too much fear 639 00:29:11,909 --> 00:29:09,730 is not real and happy people will know 640 00:29:13,889 --> 00:29:11,919 that they know that nervousness and 641 00:29:16,499 --> 00:29:13,899 anxiety to supposedly comes with fear 642 00:29:19,499 --> 00:29:16,509 are not real they block it out they get 643 00:29:21,090 --> 00:29:19,509 out of their comfort zone feel a little 644 00:29:22,769 --> 00:29:21,100 crazy and just deal what they want 645 00:29:24,779 --> 00:29:22,779 anyway I think what they're saying there 646 00:29:27,990 --> 00:29:24,789 is that happy people do not allow 647 00:29:31,019 --> 00:29:28,000 themselves to be controlled by fear you 648 00:29:34,169 --> 00:29:31,029 know it what fear becomes a disorder 649 00:29:35,850 --> 00:29:34,179 when a person has an inordinate amount 650 00:29:38,220 --> 00:29:35,860 of it one of these shows will cover 651 00:29:42,029 --> 00:29:38,230 generalized anxiety disorder and in that 652 00:29:46,919 --> 00:29:42,039 that disorder a person has an unusual 653 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:46,929 amount of fear the negative state of the 654 00:29:50,580 --> 00:29:49,210 world that's a lot of disturbing their 655 00:29:53,220 --> 00:29:50,590 know there's a lot of disturbing stuff 656 00:29:54,869 --> 00:29:53,230 going out on the world happy people 657 00:29:56,609 --> 00:29:54,879 don't deny any of these

00:34:30,110 toxic people so happy people don't like 742 00:34:38,950 --> 00:34:35,270 toxic people and what that really means 743 00:34:44,500 --> 00:34:38,960 is that they don't put up with it for 744 00:34:46,750 --> 00:34:44,510 very long toxic people can really bring 745 00:34:49,180 --> 00:34:46,760 your own boot down and they can damage 746 00:34:51,070 --> 00:34:49,190 you now that doesn't mean you should 747 00:34:52,780 --> 00:34:51,080 dump your friend if your friends being a 748 00:34:54,730 --> 00:34:52,790 little bit annoying that's not a toxic 749 00:34:56,590 --> 00:34:54,740 person but you know that there's people 750 00:34:58,210 --> 00:34:56,600 that you hate to ask them how they're 751 00:35:02,560 --> 00:34:58,220 doing because they're never doing well 752 00:35:05,410 --> 00:35:02,570 and I'm sure I've done that myself toxic 753 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:05,420 people seem to feel better when they've 754 00:35:09,100 --> 00:35:07,610 got something to complain about and they 755 00:35:12,220 --> 00:35:09,110 kind of want to drag you back into the 756 00:35:14,140 --> 00:35:12,230 pot with them number seven the past or 757 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:14,150 the future the past does not exist 758 00:35:18,100 --> 00:35:16,130 neither does the future this is the 759 00:35:20,230 --> 00:35:18,110 foundation of a lot of psychology that 760 00:35:22,240 --> 00:35:20,240 you have to live in the here and now the 761 00:35:25,330 --> 00:35:22,250 past is over the future hasn't happened 762 00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:25,340 yet living in the past isn't going to 763 00:35:28,660 --> 00:35:27,410 get you anywhere and living in the 764 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:28,670 future is going to prevent you from 765 00:35:31,990 --> 00:35:30,410 building that future because you can 766 00:35:32,860 --> 00:35:32,000 only build a future from what you're 767 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:32,870 doing now 768 00:35:37,660 --> 00:35:35,210 number eight expecting anything in 769 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:37,670 return start doing things for the sake 770 00:35:41,770 --> 00:35:39,650 of doing things I guess here we're 771 00:35:43,350 --> 00:35:41,780 talking about altruism helping others 772 00:35:46,150 --> 00:35:43,360 for the sake of being compassionate 773 00:35:48,690 --> 00:35:46,160 happy people like to do things for other 774 00:35:50,860 --> 00:35:48,700 people and not expect anything in return 775 00:35:54,670 --> 00:35:50,870 whereas there are other people that very 776 00:35:57,010 --> 00:35:54,680 to keep you know a very close count on 777 00:35:59,440 --> 00:35:57,020 social psychology we call those mutual 778 00:36:02,680 --> 00:35:59,450 exchange or equal exchange relationships 779 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:02,690 that each person relationship keeps 780 00:36:08,110 --> 00:36:05,090 pretty close track that they're getting 781 00:36:11,650 --> 00:36:08,120 and giving at a somewhat equal rate but 782 00:36:14,530 --> 00:36:11,660 happy people apparently particularly 783 00:36:19,270 --> 00:36:14,540 enjoy helping and not expecting anything 784 00:36:22,270 --> 00:36:19,280 in return complaining complaining as 785 00:36:24,850 --> 00:36:22,280 useless happy people know that nothing 786 00:36:27,070 --> 00:36:24,860 to add to that conforming to society 787 00:36:28,150 --> 00:36:27,080 standards well to a certain extent you 788 00:36:31,540 --> 00:36:28,160 have to because you don't want to land 789 00:36:33,490 --> 00:36:31,550 in jail but sometimes society gets a 790 00:36:35,470 --> 00:36:33,500 little out of whack and asks people to 791 00:36:37,990 --> 00:36:35,480 dress a certain way or behave a certain 792 00:36:39,490 --> 00:36:38,000 way or be politically correct and you 793 00:36:41,740 --> 00:36:39,500 know it's up to you you don't have to do 794 00:36:43,210 --> 00:36:41,750 that you can you know you can be who you 795 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:43,220 are that's why we have the word 796 00:36:48,610 --> 00:36:46,610 individual and and you know what you 797 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:48,620 find is that people that are that are 798 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:51,050 upbeat that are happy that don't 799 00:36:56,730 --> 00:36:53,570 complain these are attractive people and 800 00:36:59,800 --> 00:36:56,740 other people want to be around them 801 00:37:04,330 --> 00:36:59,810 whereas people told some people at a 802 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:04,340 young age developed a notion that people 803 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:06,170 are only going to pay attention to you 804 00:37:09,940 --> 00:37:08,330 if you're having a problem and you could 805 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:09,950 see how that could happen I mean let's 806 00:37:14,410 --> 00:37:11,810 say that you grew up in a big family you 807 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:14,420 know seven eight nine ten kids and the 808 00:37:17,530 --> 00:37:16,010 only time your parents pay attention to 809 00:37:19,630 --> 00:37:17,540 you is when something bad has happened 810 00:37:22,540 --> 00:37:19,640 because they're busy they got ten kids 811 00:37:25,030 --> 00:37:22,550 so you know some kids learn that they 812 00:37:28,240 --> 00:37:25,040 learn okay I get attention when things 813 00:37:31,870 --> 00:37:28,250 are going badly and it's you know it 814 00:37:34,300 --> 00:37:31,880 becomes a habit and when they lose sight 815 00:37:36,820 --> 00:37:34,310 of that and they automatically fall into 816 00:37:38,740 --> 00:37:36,830 complaining because that's what worked 817 00:37:40,660 --> 00:37:38,750 you know that's I would come from 818 00:37:42,670 --> 00:37:40,670 operant conditioning in psychology 819 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:42,680 that's what worked when I was little 820 00:37:47,230 --> 00:37:46,010 complaining up me attention and I forgot 821 00:37:49,630 --> 00:37:47,240 that I'm not little wedding 822 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:49,640 or I'm big I still complain because 823 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:51,650 that's what I mean they have a real fear 824 00:37:55,330 --> 00:37:53,210 that if someone says how you're doing 825 00:37:56,740 --> 00:37:55,340 and they said oh I'm doing great person 826 00:37:58,720 --> 00:37:56,750 would say okay and then they would walk 827 00:38:01,240 --> 00:37:58,730 away but actually we like to be around 828 00:38:03,070 --> 00:38:01,250 people you know that are doing great for 829 00:38:05,470 --> 00:38:03,080 one thing they're not toxic you know 830 00:38:09,430 --> 00:38:05,480 going back to the going back to the 831 00:38:14,050 --> 00:38:09,440 other one some let's dip our toes into 832 00:38:18,180 --> 00:38:14,060 the paranormal here for a moment this is 833 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:18,190 a you know this show is somewhat unique 834 00:38:22,630 --> 00:38:20,930 that somewhat unique doesn't make any 835 00:38:25,690 --> 00:38:22,640 sense at all I'm almost sorry I said 836 00:38:28,330 --> 00:38:25,700 that this show varies a bit from I think 837 00:38:32,410 --> 00:38:28,340 we have 29 shows on inception radio 838 00:38:36,700 --> 00:38:32,420 network but the the focus of the show is 839 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:36,710 not paranormal but we still dip into it 840 00:38:40,330 --> 00:38:38,570 a little bit each week partly because 841 00:38:42,250 --> 00:38:40,340 that's what the network's about and 842 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:42,260 partly because I am interested in it I'm 843 00:38:50,109 --> 00:38:47,330 just very skeptical but I call myself a 844 00:38:51,609 --> 00:38:50,119 hopeful skeptic and I do think that 845 00:38:56,500 --> 00:38:51,619 we'll figure out some of these things 846 00:38:59,170 --> 00:38:56,510 and I certainly believe in life outside 847 00:39:02,140 --> 00:38:59,180 of the earth you know I cannot believe 848 00:39:05,260 --> 00:39:02,150 that that the universe just has this one 849 00:39:07,090 --> 00:39:05,270 little speck on a speck on a speck of a 850 00:39:09,010 --> 00:39:07,100 grain of sand and that's the only place 851 00:39:11,590 --> 00:39:09,020 you're going to find life I'm not sure 852 00:39:13,359 --> 00:39:11,600 that we've got you know a thousand UFOs 853 00:39:15,820 --> 00:39:13,369 add a landing in the Midwest and 854 00:39:18,609 --> 00:39:15,830 abducting people that's that's harder 855 00:39:20,620 --> 00:39:18,619 for me I have no evidence that they 856 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:20,630 aren't but I don't have any evidence 857 00:39:27,820 --> 00:39:23,690 that they are and you know that brings 858 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:27,830 me to why I think psychologists in 859 00:39:32,590 --> 00:39:30,650 particular and people interested in the 860 00:39:35,650 --> 00:39:32,600 paranormal why there's there's 861 00:39:37,180 --> 00:39:35,660 discomfort there Lori and Fenton I 862 00:39:39,910 --> 00:39:37,190 listened to her earlier and she was 863 00:39:41,740 --> 00:39:39,920 talking to her guests had a degree in 864 00:39:44,410 --> 00:39:41,750 psychology and she was talking about you 865 00:39:46,630 --> 00:39:44,420 know but psychologists don't seem to 866 00:39:49,060 --> 00:39:46,640 want to talk about the paranormal stuff 867 00:39:50,530 --> 00:39:49,070 and part of it is it's hard to get 868 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:50,540 through an undergrad and a graduate 869 00:39:56,410 --> 00:39:53,930 education in psychology or any science 870 00:40:00,200 --> 00:39:56,420 without you know buying really hard into 871 00:40:03,380 --> 00:40:00,210 the the scientific method model you know 872 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:03,390 says that we want to know exactly why 873 00:40:09,290 --> 00:40:06,050 something happens and we want to be able 874 00:40:11,390 --> 00:40:09,300 to prove it then we want to be able to 875 00:40:13,780 --> 00:40:11,400 replicate it okay so let me give you an 876 00:40:16,460 --> 00:40:13,790 example a portation you know just 877 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:16,470 something kind of moving on its own so 878 00:40:21,230 --> 00:40:19,050 let's say I have a subject who says I 879 00:40:23,870 --> 00:40:21,240 can move things with my mind I'd say 880 00:40:26,660 --> 00:40:23,880 that's cool let's let's let's set you up 881 00:40:28,849 --> 00:40:26,670 in a lab let's make sure that nothing 882 00:40:31,099 --> 00:40:28,859 else in the room could cause it you know 883 00:40:33,140 --> 00:40:31,109 that there's no air moving around and 884 00:40:35,510 --> 00:40:33,150 you know that's called controlling for 885 00:40:37,430 --> 00:40:35,520 extraneous variables so the only thing 886 00:40:39,579 --> 00:40:37,440 left would be your mind and let and 887 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:39,589 let's say for the sake of argument that 888 00:40:45,349 --> 00:40:42,930 i put a little you know one inch cube of 889 00:40:47,500 --> 00:40:45,359 wood on a desk and I say okay just make 890 00:40:50,329 --> 00:40:47,510 it move even a few inches you know oh 891 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:50,339 you know just to be safe I'll duct tape 892 00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:54,690 them to their chair oh and then you know 893 00:41:01,460 --> 00:40:57,810 that the block moves but I got a real 894 00:41:03,099 --> 00:41:01,470 problem here I'd be excited but you know 895 00:41:06,230 --> 00:41:03,109 I just broke one of the rules of physics 896 00:41:08,450 --> 00:41:06,240 yeah and an object at rest will stay at 897 00:41:10,609 --> 00:41:08,460 rest unless a force acts upon it we 898 00:41:13,550 --> 00:41:10,619 don't want Newton rolling over in his 899 00:41:15,950 --> 00:41:13,560 grave do we maybe we do I don't know 900 00:41:20,210 --> 00:41:15,960 about we wouldn't know and it wouldn't 901 00:41:23,089 --> 00:41:20,220 do any harm he's dead so you know what 902 00:41:25,370 --> 00:41:23,099 made it move we would have to figure 903 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:25,380 that out and I think a lot of scientists 904 00:41:30,470 --> 00:41:27,930 simply say look it's hard enough to read 905 00:41:34,190 --> 00:41:30,480 to read brain waves as it is you know 906 00:41:36,380 --> 00:41:34,200 you have to put electrodes right on the 907 00:41:39,050 --> 00:41:36,390 skull and you've got to use you know you 908 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:39,060 got to use this goopy stuff to help make 909 00:41:44,150 --> 00:41:42,330 sure that the transducers work and you 910 00:41:45,980 --> 00:41:44,160 know if it's that hard to even read 911 00:41:48,050 --> 00:41:45,990 those brain waves how are you going to 912 00:41:50,359 --> 00:41:48,060 move a block of wood you know two feet 913 00:41:52,970 --> 00:41:50,369 away and I think that's where the 914 00:41:56,270 --> 00:41:52,980 incredulity comes out is that you know 915 00:42:00,349 --> 00:41:56,280 if people can do these things that you 916 00:42:02,420 --> 00:42:00,359 know do we rewrite physics or do we come 917 00:42:05,180 --> 00:42:02,430 back and say boy we sure have a whole 918 00:42:08,240 --> 00:42:05,190 lot of new things to figure out and I 919 00:42:10,190 --> 00:42:08,250 think that's what I think I I think that 920 00:42:12,650 --> 00:42:10,200 we would have a whole lot of new things 921 00:42:13,790 --> 00:42:12,660 to figure out I did I think we are I was 922 00:42:15,590 --> 00:42:13,800 talking to a colleague 923 00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:15,600 the other day and I don't talk about 924 00:42:19,700 --> 00:42:18,330 this stuff much at the college it does 925 00:42:22,340 --> 00:42:19,710 tend to make people roll their eyes 926 00:42:25,150 --> 00:42:22,350 which is a shame but she's a little more 927 00:42:29,570 --> 00:42:25,160 open-minded and we were talking about 928 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:29,580 thought transfer or ESP and it should 929 00:42:32,780 --> 00:42:30,930 agrees that we ought to be able to do 930 00:42:34,670 --> 00:42:32,790 that and that at some point we will 931 00:42:36,620 --> 00:42:34,680 figure it out our brains will figure it 932 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:36,630 out because we have you know a hundred 933 00:42:40,790 --> 00:42:38,370 you know the generally accepted numbers 934 00:42:43,850 --> 00:42:40,800 a hundred billion neurons I know and we 935 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:43,860 don't use an awful lot of them part of 936 00:42:49,010 --> 00:42:45,570 it is that we need a lot of backup 937 00:42:52,460 --> 00:42:49,020 because we don't keep making new ones or 938 00:42:55,370 --> 00:42:52,470 not very many but the thought transfer 939 00:42:59,390 --> 00:42:55,380 to me just seems so probable and so 940 00:43:01,880 --> 00:42:59,400 plausible but maybe that's just a matter 941 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:01,890 of evolution it will take time but 942 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:05,490 moving a block of wood with your brain 943 00:43:09,500 --> 00:43:07,050 that's going to be really hard to 944 00:43:13,100 --> 00:43:09,510 explain so a lot of scientists are going 945 00:43:15,170 --> 00:43:13,110 to say you know so I can't even start to 946 00:43:17,450 --> 00:43:15,180 do this because then I'm going to have a 947 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:17,460 fight with physics but I think we should 948 00:43:22,610 --> 00:43:20,010 still do it I think the fact that 949 00:43:25,130 --> 00:43:22,620 paranormal psychology doesn't seem to 950 00:43:27,530 --> 00:43:25,140 lend itself to the lab doesn't mean we 951 00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:27,540 shouldn't do it it means that we should 952 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:29,850 do it differently or come at it from a 953 00:43:35,990 --> 00:43:32,370 different point of view even though as 954 00:43:38,570 --> 00:43:36,000 far as I know nothing paranormal has 955 00:43:41,300 --> 00:43:38,580 ever happened in the lab does it mean we 956 00:43:44,270 --> 00:43:41,310 should stop trying we should keep trying 957 00:43:46,370 --> 00:43:44,280 and i'm trying i'm dying i'm working on 958 00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:46,380 an ESP project and this will give me a 959 00:43:54,830 --> 00:43:51,570 chance to talk about that and give a 960 00:43:57,650 --> 00:43:54,840 shot out to another show inception radio 961 00:43:59,630 --> 00:43:57,660 network also hosts truth funders calm 962 00:44:02,900 --> 00:43:59,640 and they're a front there they are a 963 00:44:05,380 --> 00:44:02,910 fundraising platform for people who are 964 00:44:09,770 --> 00:44:05,390 doing things in the paranormal world and 965 00:44:12,530 --> 00:44:09,780 i am trying to do a study on ESP using 966 00:44:14,900 --> 00:44:12,540 Zener cards and those are the five cards 967 00:44:17,150 --> 00:44:14,910 that have like a circle or a square or a 968 00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:17,160 little squiggly line it looks like bacon 969 00:44:22,250 --> 00:44:20,130 and I'm trying to raise money doing that 970 00:44:23,690 --> 00:44:22,260 and I've raised a little bit and you are 971 00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:23,700 more than welcome to go there and make a 972 00:44:27,050 --> 00:44:25,770 donation to my project or any of the 973 00:44:29,510 --> 00:44:27,060 other projects 974 00:44:32,150 --> 00:44:29,520 are really good projects there but you 975 00:44:35,110 --> 00:44:32,160 know this is Mark shorts and it's just 976 00:44:38,210 --> 00:44:35,120 it's really cool MJ just put a link up 977 00:44:40,490 --> 00:44:38,220 you know if conventional science and 978 00:44:42,620 --> 00:44:40,500 that the conventional funding mechanisms 979 00:44:44,030 --> 00:44:42,630 aren't going to work then the mark 980 00:44:46,130 --> 00:44:44,040 Schwartz's of the world are going to 981 00:44:49,310 --> 00:44:46,140 figure out a way to make it work so I 982 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:49,320 love truth funders I've raised a hundred 983 00:44:57,650 --> 00:44:53,370 and ninety dollars and i bought some of 984 00:45:02,540 --> 00:44:57,660 the stuff i need part of the part of the 985 00:45:05,210 --> 00:45:02,550 stuff is my project is on ESPN i want to 986 00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:05,220 buy a rather expensive high-speed camera 987 00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:07,050 because one of the variables i want to 988 00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:16,550 Doug I'm sorry I'm looking to tell you I 989 00:45:19,970 --> 00:45:18,090 just got caught up looking at the chat 990 00:45:22,100 --> 00:45:19,980 room I can't run a show and read it to 991 00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:22,110 constantly but there's so much cool 992 00:45:29,060 --> 00:45:24,810 stuff in there I get Rachel I agree if 993 00:45:31,940 --> 00:45:29,070 you have your own issues going on and 994 00:45:33,980 --> 00:45:31,950 then you are around people who are 995 00:45:38,690 --> 00:45:33,990 negative that's going to do nothing but 996 00:45:40,790 --> 00:45:38,700 bad for you and I you know I I don't 997 00:45:42,530 --> 00:45:40,800 think it's mean to tell you the cut ties 998 00:45:45,530 --> 00:45:42,540 with people like that I would surround 999 00:45:49,630 --> 00:45:45,540 myself with happier people I would watch 1000 00:45:52,820 --> 00:45:49,640 comedies on TV I would read upbeat stuff 1001 00:45:55,670 --> 00:45:52,830 I'd go for long walks and I would try to 1002 00:45:57,500 --> 00:45:55,680 live outside of my head and we try to 1003 00:45:59,960 --> 00:45:57,510 let negative thoughts and anxious 1004 00:46:02,030 --> 00:45:59,970 thoughts be like a movie you know don't 1005 00:46:04,220 --> 00:46:02,040 interact with them just let them pass by 1006 00:46:06,260 --> 00:46:04,230 because thought suppression doesn't work 1007 00:46:07,700 --> 00:46:06,270 if you tell yourself don't think about a 1008 00:46:11,210 --> 00:46:07,710 white elephant and all you can think 1009 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:11,220 about is the white elephant analog hole 1010 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:13,050 asks what about the whole remote viewing 1011 00:46:18,470 --> 00:46:15,810 program done by the US and Russia the 1012 00:46:20,990 --> 00:46:18,480 u.s. supposedly has something like an 1013 00:46:24,470 --> 00:46:21,000 eight percent success rate well I'm 1014 00:46:27,110 --> 00:46:24,480 surprised it was that high it I don't I 1015 00:46:29,420 --> 00:46:27,120 couldn't begin to put together an 1016 00:46:33,890 --> 00:46:29,430 experiment for remote viewing there are 1017 00:46:36,590 --> 00:46:33,900 so many variables remote viewing would 1018 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:36,600 mean that I could sit here in walkers on 1019 00:46:40,740 --> 00:46:39,450 Marilyn and then I could tell you what's 1020 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:40,750 going on in 1021 00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:43,930 I don't know in Washington State or I 1022 00:46:49,530 --> 00:46:45,850 could tell you where a criminal is again 1023 00:46:52,860 --> 00:46:49,540 I'm skeptical skeptical of it but I 1024 00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:52,870 don't say it's impossible I think they 1025 00:47:01,290 --> 00:46:56,410 should keep studying it but the way I've 1026 00:47:03,660 --> 00:47:01,300 seen it studied oh my impression is that 1027 00:47:07,260 --> 00:47:03,670 the studies are very very poorly done 1028 00:47:10,770 --> 00:47:07,270 the methodologies are awful you know do 1029 00:47:12,990 --> 00:47:10,780 it on a tiny tiny scale and control for 1030 00:47:16,470 --> 00:47:13,000 everything you can so that when you get 1031 00:47:18,660 --> 00:47:16,480 a hit you know you can say that it's 1032 00:47:20,790 --> 00:47:18,670 meaningful you know when i'm doing the 1033 00:47:23,700 --> 00:47:20,800 Zener cards with my students there's 1034 00:47:26,340 --> 00:47:23,710 five Zener cards so i would randomly 1035 00:47:30,780 --> 00:47:26,350 expect a twenty percent success rate 1036 00:47:33,740 --> 00:47:30,790 okay if I reliably got a thirty percent 1037 00:47:36,390 --> 00:47:33,750 success rate that would be significant 1038 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:36,400 that would mean that that same subject 1039 00:47:41,300 --> 00:47:39,370 and another subject could reliably beat 1040 00:47:43,890 --> 00:47:41,310 the odds over and over and over again 1041 00:47:46,650 --> 00:47:43,900 that stuff doesn't tend to happen in a 1042 00:47:51,030 --> 00:47:46,660 lab but all it means is that we need to 1043 00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:51,040 keep trying so anyway analog hole I 1044 00:47:57,570 --> 00:47:52,810 wasn't even aware that they had an eight 1045 00:48:00,570 --> 00:47:57,580 percent success rate and I don't you 1046 00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:00,580 know I don't that stuff's not published 1047 00:48:05,490 --> 00:48:03,330 in academia that CIA certainly doesn't 1048 00:48:07,310 --> 00:48:05,500 publish I tell you what I will do this 1049 00:48:10,770 --> 00:48:07,320 week i will i will do a literature 1050 00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:10,780 search on remote viewing and see if 1051 00:48:15,720 --> 00:48:13,450 there's anything at all out there but i 1052 00:48:17,730 --> 00:48:15,730 doubt it is going to be anything and you 1053 00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:17,740 know in academic journals but if I find 1054 00:48:24,690 --> 00:48:21,370 it I will bring it up bring it up next 1055 00:48:26,790 --> 00:48:24,700 week but by the way you can go on Amazon 1056 00:48:29,130 --> 00:48:26,800 and you can buy Zener cards very 1057 00:48:31,110 --> 00:48:29,140 inexpensively I mean five ten bucks for 1058 00:48:35,190 --> 00:48:31,120 a pack of them and you know try it 1059 00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:35,200 because we mean remember if it works 1060 00:48:40,410 --> 00:48:38,170 your first problem is going to be is it 1061 00:48:43,350 --> 00:48:40,420 because I have a good transmitter or is 1062 00:48:45,300 --> 00:48:43,360 it because I have a good receiver so if 1063 00:48:47,070 --> 00:48:45,310 you got two people want to work well 1064 00:48:48,750 --> 00:48:47,080 then you would want to bring you in 1065 00:48:52,380 --> 00:48:48,760 another person and see if it still works 1066 00:48:53,910 --> 00:48:52,390 you know is it the trend is that the 1067 00:48:54,420 --> 00:48:53,920 transmitter that's actually good at 1068 00:48:56,069 --> 00:48:54,430 sending 1069 00:48:58,440 --> 00:48:56,079 and anybody can be a receiver for that 1070 00:49:00,000 --> 00:48:58,450 person or is it the receiver that's good 1071 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:00,010 at receiving anyone could be a good 1072 00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:03,490 transmitter but we need to always as 1073 00:49:09,900 --> 00:49:05,890 American Road royer just pointed out we 1074 00:49:13,730 --> 00:49:09,910 we need to always exceed coincidence you 1075 00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:13,740 know and what we more or less use five 1076 00:49:19,290 --> 00:49:17,410 percent you know we want the chance that 1077 00:49:22,020 --> 00:49:19,300 something happened by coincidence to be 1078 00:49:26,809 --> 00:49:22,030 less than five percent but in really 1079 00:49:30,540 --> 00:49:26,819 rigorous scientific studies we use P 1080 00:49:33,089 --> 00:49:30,550 point zero one we want the chance of 1081 00:49:34,890 --> 00:49:33,099 coincidence to be one percent or less 1082 00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:34,900 and that would mean that there's a 1083 00:49:39,870 --> 00:49:37,210 ninety-nine percent chance that are our 1084 00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:39,880 independent variable is responsible for 1085 00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:43,170 the results that we're getting and 1086 00:49:47,970 --> 00:49:46,450 analog hole I will check MIT the nice 1087 00:49:50,549 --> 00:49:47,980 thing about being a professor is I have 1088 00:49:53,430 --> 00:49:50,559 access to just about every journal on 1089 00:49:58,230 --> 00:49:53,440 the planet they're very expensive by the 1090 00:50:00,539 --> 00:49:58,240 way the college's spend I don't know one 1091 00:50:05,069 --> 00:50:00,549 college one of my grad school spent two 1092 00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:05,079 million dollars a year for online 1093 00:50:11,430 --> 00:50:09,010 databases of just journals so anyway 1094 00:50:13,770 --> 00:50:11,440 what we need to do is we need to keep 1095 00:50:16,109 --> 00:50:13,780 trying and we need to keep going after 1096 00:50:19,319 --> 00:50:16,119 this in truth funders is an alternative 1097 00:50:20,819 --> 00:50:19,329 way to raise funds and I think if we can 1098 00:50:23,099 --> 00:50:20,829 start getting some results through 1099 00:50:25,349 --> 00:50:23,109 places like truth funders which mark 1100 00:50:27,420 --> 00:50:25,359 shorts is just put whole heart and soul 1101 00:50:30,510 --> 00:50:27,430 in then maybe we'll start to get the 1102 00:50:33,599 --> 00:50:30,520 attention of you know of some some 1103 00:50:38,940 --> 00:50:33,609 academia and and get more of this back 1104 00:50:42,270 --> 00:50:38,950 into colleges the truth about cats and 1105 00:50:45,059 --> 00:50:42,280 dogs pets are good for mental health of 1106 00:50:47,730 --> 00:50:45,069 everyday people that's probably falls on 1107 00:50:49,559 --> 00:50:47,740 their common sense doesn't it but as I 1108 00:50:52,319 --> 00:50:49,569 tell my students everything has to be 1109 00:50:54,450 --> 00:50:52,329 proven you know you if you want to say 1110 00:50:55,890 --> 00:50:54,460 it's a fact you got to prove it and in 1111 00:50:59,400 --> 00:50:55,900 the journal of personality and social 1112 00:51:01,410 --> 00:50:59,410 psychology they did three experiments to 1113 00:51:03,900 --> 00:51:01,420 examine the potential benefits of pet 1114 00:51:07,289 --> 00:51:03,910 ownership of what they called everyday 1115 00:51:08,039 --> 00:51:07,299 people and we observed evidence that pet 1116 00:51:10,650 --> 00:51:08,049 owners 1117 00:51:13,199 --> 00:51:10,660 fared better both in terms of well-being 1118 00:51:15,589 --> 00:51:13,209 outcomes and individual differences than 1119 00:51:18,179 --> 00:51:15,599 non-owners on several dimensions 1120 00:51:21,269 --> 00:51:18,189 specifically pet owners had greater self 1121 00:51:23,429 --> 00:51:21,279 esteem we're more physically fit tended 1122 00:51:25,829 --> 00:51:23,439 to be less lonely we're more 1123 00:51:27,870 --> 00:51:25,839 conscientious were more extroverted 1124 00:51:31,319 --> 00:51:27,880 tended to be less fearful intended to be 1125 00:51:32,849 --> 00:51:31,329 less preoccupied than non-owners alright 1126 00:51:35,519 --> 00:51:32,859 so raise your hand if you got a pet I 1127 00:51:38,839 --> 00:51:35,529 think everybody raise our hand well you 1128 00:51:41,819 --> 00:51:38,849 know they were studying cats and dogs I 1129 00:51:45,419 --> 00:51:41,829 think it depends on pets some people 1130 00:51:47,910 --> 00:51:45,429 like odd pets like I have a rat I love 1131 00:51:50,579 --> 00:51:47,920 my rat but she's very social she 1132 00:51:53,429 --> 00:51:50,589 interacts with me other people like you 1133 00:51:55,019 --> 00:51:53,439 know spiders or snakes I don't know that 1134 00:51:57,870 --> 00:51:55,029 when you come home from work you know I 1135 00:52:00,630 --> 00:51:57,880 don't know does this snake jump all over 1136 00:52:03,299 --> 00:52:00,640 the cage and scream and wave and wag its 1137 00:52:05,489 --> 00:52:03,309 tail or I mean you know I think that's 1138 00:52:09,150 --> 00:52:05,499 probably why they stuck with cats and 1139 00:52:14,189 --> 00:52:09,160 dogs because they clearly bond with 1140 00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:14,199 their owners so and I don't know if 1141 00:52:18,179 --> 00:52:15,729 you're in the chat room and you think 1142 00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:18,189 that pets are good out there we go 1143 00:52:27,689 --> 00:52:24,130 rachel says i love my kitties and cats 1144 00:52:31,169 --> 00:52:27,699 her wonderful pets and then you know mhm 1145 00:52:33,269 --> 00:52:31,179 was five cats good for you boy that's a 1146 00:52:35,609 --> 00:52:33,279 lot of those that's a lot of scooping of 1147 00:52:38,370 --> 00:52:35,619 cat boxes we just have one and we just 1148 00:52:39,839 --> 00:52:38,380 got her my son wanted one so we got one 1149 00:52:42,179 --> 00:52:39,849 for my family was moving to a house 1150 00:52:45,329 --> 00:52:42,189 where they're not allowed to have cats 1151 00:52:47,789 --> 00:52:45,339 so we adopted Molly who's 15 months old 1152 00:52:51,929 --> 00:52:47,799 and is doing very well though our dog 1153 00:52:53,939 --> 00:52:51,939 Jules is extremely jealous but a cat's 1154 00:52:57,059 --> 00:52:53,949 you know you talk about paranormal cats 1155 00:52:59,309 --> 00:52:57,069 seem to be able to read your mind if I 1156 00:53:01,620 --> 00:52:59,319 don't know if it's just you know wishful 1157 00:53:04,169 --> 00:53:01,630 thinking but I grew up with cats well 1158 00:53:06,569 --> 00:53:04,179 that we had five cats growing up and it 1159 00:53:09,449 --> 00:53:06,579 seemed like if you were feeling sad or 1160 00:53:11,370 --> 00:53:09,459 down or ill your cat would come up and 1161 00:53:13,529 --> 00:53:11,380 curl up against you and try to comfort 1162 00:53:16,469 --> 00:53:13,539 you I think dogs kind of do the same 1163 00:53:19,199 --> 00:53:16,479 thing and that's that's another area of 1164 00:53:20,939 --> 00:53:19,209 you know when they're doing studies like 1165 00:53:21,300 --> 00:53:20,949 this I wonder if they realize that in a 1166 00:53:23,010 --> 00:53:21,310 way 1167 00:53:25,500 --> 00:53:23,020 they're studying stuff that's kind of 1168 00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:25,510 paranormal because we're talking about 1169 00:53:30,870 --> 00:53:29,290 communication between two species and we 1170 00:53:33,870 --> 00:53:30,880 don't know how to account for that 1171 00:53:36,530 --> 00:53:33,880 clearly we communicate with our pets but 1172 00:53:39,210 --> 00:53:36,540 I don't think that we know how or why 1173 00:53:43,650 --> 00:53:39,220 and and their brains are different than 1174 00:53:45,900 --> 00:53:43,660 ours Rachel used to volunteer at the 1175 00:53:48,090 --> 00:53:45,910 shelter okay that's how you ended up 1176 00:53:50,790 --> 00:53:48,100 with five well it's a good thing you 1177 00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:50,800 quit otherwise you'd grow up to be that 1178 00:53:57,780 --> 00:53:52,930 crazy cat lady that lives on down on the 1179 00:53:59,580 --> 00:53:57,790 corner but cats are good for you dogs 1180 00:54:02,250 --> 00:53:59,590 are just bigger and take up or a room 1181 00:54:04,530 --> 00:54:02,260 and some people are cat people and some 1182 00:54:08,280 --> 00:54:04,540 people are dog people our family well we 1183 00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:08,290 have two rats Jameson has a rat lily I 1184 00:54:16,350 --> 00:54:12,930 have a rat Annabelle we have a hamster 1185 00:54:18,510 --> 00:54:16,360 sandy a dog jewels in the cat Molly and 1186 00:54:22,470 --> 00:54:18,520 I'm sure you were just dying to know all 1187 00:54:24,270 --> 00:54:22,480 that anyway I thought that was you know 1188 00:54:26,190 --> 00:54:24,280 in a way that was yet another one of 1189 00:54:29,310 --> 00:54:26,200 those studies that points out the 1190 00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:29,320 obvious but it's not obvious until you 1191 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:31,690 prove it you know and we have to prove 1192 00:54:40,790 --> 00:54:34,570 it by the way I wanted to point out 1193 00:54:44,220 --> 00:54:40,800 again that at nine o'clock live MJ and 1194 00:54:47,670 --> 00:54:44,230 will be on with pang radio and they'll 1195 00:54:50,220 --> 00:54:47,680 be talking to oh my gosh i lost my note 1196 00:54:52,980 --> 00:54:50,230 oh well it'll be about the Roswell 1197 00:54:55,380 --> 00:54:52,990 slides and our Eve are those on line 1198 00:54:58,820 --> 00:54:55,390 somewhere I keep hearing about the 1199 00:55:01,410 --> 00:54:58,830 Roswell slides but I've not seen them 1200 00:55:04,740 --> 00:55:01,420 microbe that friend Beth tells me that 1201 00:55:07,380 --> 00:55:04,750 they're online somewhere analog hole 1202 00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:07,390 says I think telepathy is real I've sort 1203 00:55:11,310 --> 00:55:09,010 of had a run-in with the other person in 1204 00:55:13,110 --> 00:55:11,320 that regards she pretty much said to me 1205 00:55:15,810 --> 00:55:13,120 what I was thinking a couple times it's 1206 00:55:18,510 --> 00:55:15,820 possible environmental yeah it does and 1207 00:55:21,180 --> 00:55:18,520 as we get closer to someone you know we 1208 00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:21,190 do get to where we can predict their 1209 00:55:24,900 --> 00:55:23,170 behavior so some of that could be 1210 00:55:29,870 --> 00:55:24,910 paranormal and some of that is that your 1211 00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:29,880 brain is an incredible statistical odds 1212 00:55:34,740 --> 00:55:33,010 probability generating machine so it's 1213 00:55:36,630 --> 00:55:34,750 you know it's not surprising 1214 00:55:38,070 --> 00:55:36,640 sometimes when your phone rings before 1215 00:55:40,220 --> 00:55:38,080 you look at it you know who it is 1216 00:55:45,870 --> 00:55:40,230 because your brain knows it's a 1217 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:45,880 likelihood but oh you know that would be 1218 00:55:50,490 --> 00:55:48,010 an interesting way to come out studying 1219 00:55:53,190 --> 00:55:50,500 in telepathy and it's what i'm going to 1220 00:55:57,690 --> 00:55:53,200 do i'm right now what I'm doing is that 1221 00:55:59,940 --> 00:55:57,700 I am I'm assessing personality and I'm 1222 00:56:02,910 --> 00:55:59,950 putting people in groups of two that 1223 00:56:05,100 --> 00:56:02,920 have very very similar personalities i'm 1224 00:56:09,030 --> 00:56:05,110 using the myers-briggs test because i 1225 00:56:12,390 --> 00:56:09,040 think the more I the more similar 1226 00:56:15,120 --> 00:56:12,400 someone is to another person I believe 1227 00:56:17,490 --> 00:56:15,130 the more likely they are to be able to 1228 00:56:19,380 --> 00:56:17,500 do a thought transfer so that's what my 1229 00:56:21,300 --> 00:56:19,390 experiment is and it's up there on truth 1230 00:56:23,850 --> 00:56:21,310 funders and by the way truth finders is 1231 00:56:25,770 --> 00:56:23,860 on Wednesday nights if you're in the 1232 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:25,780 chat room if you scroll down you'll see 1233 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:29,410 the live shows okay so you'll see that 1234 00:56:37,190 --> 00:56:32,290 on Wednesday truth funders is on at nine 1235 00:56:39,750 --> 00:56:37,200 o'clock live nine o'clock eastern time 1236 00:56:42,420 --> 00:56:39,760 supernatural girls is on at seven-thirty 1237 00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:42,430 i haven't heard that one yet UFO 1238 00:56:49,050 --> 00:56:46,410 headline news and then let's see through 1239 00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:49,060 thursday friday so if you want to know 1240 00:56:53,910 --> 00:56:51,610 if you're listening to a show live or 1241 00:56:57,870 --> 00:56:53,920 not just go to the shower room to the 1242 00:57:01,920 --> 00:56:57,880 chat room and scroll down so for example 1243 00:57:03,630 --> 00:57:01,930 today is Sunday and you see psychology 1244 00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:03,640 outer limits and then you see paying 1245 00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:06,970 radio and they're on for an hour and a 1246 00:57:13,460 --> 00:57:09,010 half whether and that's a fast hour and 1247 00:57:16,380 --> 00:57:13,470 a half MJ show is really good I've 1248 00:57:18,540 --> 00:57:16,390 always enjoyed it I didn't know that NJ 1249 00:57:21,300 --> 00:57:18,550 was a producer in one of the principles 1250 00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:21,310 of the network those guys work really 1251 00:57:29,370 --> 00:57:27,490 really hard Rachel question why do you 1252 00:57:32,010 --> 00:57:29,380 think we only use two percent of our 1253 00:57:35,310 --> 00:57:32,020 brains you know we really don't know how 1254 00:57:38,370 --> 00:57:35,320 much of our brains will use we we I've 1255 00:57:40,110 --> 00:57:38,380 heard numbers from you know typically 1256 00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:40,120 hear numbers like eight nine or ten 1257 00:57:47,490 --> 00:57:44,050 percent first of all we do need some 1258 00:57:48,520 --> 00:57:47,500 backup because we don't make new brain 1259 00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:48,530 cells the same way 1260 00:57:54,010 --> 00:57:51,650 we make new skin cells but we don't we 1261 00:57:59,410 --> 00:57:54,020 understand very little about our brain 1262 00:58:00,820 --> 00:57:59,420 compared to what we do know if we have 1263 00:58:03,340 --> 00:58:00,830 brain damage something called 1264 00:58:05,980 --> 00:58:03,350 neuroplasticity kicks in in other parts 1265 00:58:10,270 --> 00:58:05,990 of our brain tries to help out you know 1266 00:58:13,750 --> 00:58:10,280 where we've lost brain matter but Rachel 1267 00:58:16,260 --> 00:58:13,760 let me let me do some research this week 1268 00:58:19,570 --> 00:58:16,270 and see if there are any actual good 1269 00:58:22,840 --> 00:58:19,580 answers to what percent will use because 1270 00:58:25,270 --> 00:58:22,850 my guess is that at any given time a you 1271 00:58:27,370 --> 00:58:25,280 know or over any given time we probably 1272 00:58:30,070 --> 00:58:27,380 use all of our brain cells I mean 1273 00:58:31,780 --> 00:58:30,080 they're all alive but they may not but 1274 00:58:33,970 --> 00:58:31,790 they may not all be fired that's a 1275 00:58:35,590 --> 00:58:33,980 really good question so I will do a 1276 00:58:38,230 --> 00:58:35,600 little digging into that but generally 1277 00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:38,240 the accepted number is between eight and 1278 00:58:45,580 --> 00:58:43,370 ten percent are used actively but my 1279 00:58:47,770 --> 00:58:45,590 belief is that at some point in our 1280 00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:47,780 lives will use them all as my son just 1281 00:58:54,580 --> 00:58:51,290 pointed out our computer brain is a 1282 00:58:56,470 --> 00:58:54,590 massively parallel computer you know 1283 00:58:59,680 --> 00:58:56,480 instead of having one or two processors 1284 00:59:01,120 --> 00:58:59,690 you have a hundred billion and and they 1285 00:59:03,400 --> 00:59:01,130 work like a computer and you're on 1286 00:59:06,420 --> 00:59:03,410 either fires or a doesn't it's on or 1287 00:59:09,300 --> 00:59:06,430 it's off it's just like a a bit on a 1288 00:59:12,640 --> 00:59:09,310 transistor it's either on or it's off 1289 00:59:15,070 --> 00:59:12,650 but it but it does absolutely amazing 1290 00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:15,080 things and we're nowhere close to close 1291 00:59:23,110 --> 00:59:20,170 to replicating it with a with a computer 1292 00:59:25,180 --> 00:59:23,120 let's see supposedly we actually use 1293 00:59:28,570 --> 00:59:25,190 quite a bit yeah I think so analog hole 1294 00:59:30,700 --> 00:59:28,580 and i will do a little bit of a little 1295 00:59:35,410 --> 00:59:30,710 bit of research here and we're getting 1296 00:59:40,390 --> 00:59:35,420 close to the end of the show i want to 1297 00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:40,400 remind people that you can grab the the 1298 00:59:48,970 --> 00:59:44,690 free apps we have an iOS app we have an 1299 00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:48,980 android app inception radio network is 1300 00:59:56,860 --> 00:59:54,890 on skype you can call in my gosh so many 1301 00:59:58,540 --> 00:59:56,870 ways to get a hole in the chat room i 1302 01:00:00,580 --> 00:59:58,550 think that's my favorite because we get 1303 01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:00,590 we get really smart funny people the 1304 01:00:06,370 --> 01:00:02,570 chat room and it helps produce 1305 01:00:10,570 --> 01:00:06,380 saw it helps produce material for the 1306 01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:10,580 show as as we go along so next sunday i 1307 01:00:15,220 --> 01:00:12,410 will have answers for those two 1308 01:00:16,990 --> 01:00:15,230 questions where i will try and will look 1309 01:00:19,210 --> 01:00:17,000 at some other interesting things in the 1310 01:00:22,690 --> 01:00:19,220 world of psychology and we will dip our 1311 01:00:24,490 --> 01:00:22,700 toes into the paranormal once again but 1312 01:00:25,870 --> 01:00:24,500 i hope you have a great week I hope you 1313 01:00:28,330 --> 01:00:25,880 remember some of the things I said about 1314 01:00:31,420 --> 01:00:28,340 happy people and I hope that means you 1315 01:00:33,700 --> 01:00:31,430 have a happier week so this is Professor
