CONFERENCE ROOM, FIVE MINUTES! It's time for a staff meeting because this week we're interviewing comedian, writer and podcast host, Amanda Pereira, about the corporate cult classic that is THE OFFICE. We discuss the power of the mockumentary format, differing outlooks of the British Office versus the U.S versions, how Steve Carrell made the most infuriating man so loveable, and whether Jim might have been the villain all along. Plus, we wade into the discourse of what it means for a show to ‘‘age badly” and enjoy a special musical appearance from Steph's melodica.

Are comedy and Biblical tradition in opposition to each other? Is humor an obstacle or an aid to a serious life, or a life of faith? This week Rabbi Lamm spoke to Columbia University professor Jeremy Dauber about the history and future of comedy in American society. They talked about individualism and community in the comedy business; how comedy can help shed light on some of the most important stories in the Biblical tradition; the role of animation and weirdness more broadly in pop culture; and, of course, the British Office vs. the American Office! Good Faith Effort is a production of Bnai Zion and SoulShop.

What exactly is comedy? Why do we laugh? What is it that makes us feel bonded when we share a joke with another person? This week Professor Brett Mills of Freie Universität Berlin joins the podcast to try and answer these questions and more. Brett teaches a course I'm taking called "Comedy in Film," and it's a complete hit with the students, thanks in part to his wealth of knowledge concerning comedy history and theory, and ability to ask provocative questions. Some more topics we attempt to tackle: What are signifiers used in media to let us know something is intended to be funny? The difference between standup and improv as praxis Why the British Office is superior to the American version Is there an increased sensitivity to comedy with social media and cancel culture, or has it always existed and we just didn't know about it? It was a long and fascinating discussion (that I gladly would've had go on for many more hours), so have a think and a laugh and enjoy!

In this episode of the Decision Corner, Brooke speaks with Paul Dolan, Professor of Behavioural Science at the London School of Economics. Paul is globally recognised for his work on the measurement of happiness, its causes and consequences, and its implications for public policy. His experience includes working with the British Office for National Statistics and the government's Behavioural Insights Team – also known as the 'nudge' unit. He is the author of two bestselling books, and has published over 100 peer-reviewed articles. In his conversation with Brooke, Paul discusses some of his most influential work on the topic of well-being and public policy. He gives his view on what’s needed to address some of the burning policy issues facing governments all around the world today. Some of the topics discussed include: Measuring well-being through a WELLBY - what it is, and how it can be used to help craft good policy. Why the idea of a universal ‘perfect life’ is a myth, and how we need to find our individual balance of purpose and pleasure, based on our own experiences. The difference between equity and equality. How inequality can be fair in some instances, but too much inequality is unjust, and the need for a general consensus around that point. An appeal for diversity in policymaking - how policy makers are generally from a specific age group or demographic, and why having a broader range of input into policies and decisions could help inspire greater public confidence. The different lenses through which people of different cultures and demographics see the world, and the need to accept and include diverse perspectives. The impossibility of certainty when it comes to policy making, taking the pandemic response as a real-time example. Why we should be wary of individuals who display blind certainty, and fail to accept uncertainty in decision-making.

NOTES: “Gee, You Eulogy?” - A podcast where we teach people to eulogy. Or maybe we fake Phil Hartman’s death. “We Pod A Zoo” - We flooded it. We flooded the zoo to punish the animals. “Ballstack” - AJ invents the new great american pastime. “Female Reboot of Marc Maron” - It’s just a sex change operation “Colin POW!” - stories about Colin Powell’s greatest fights “Pain” - it’s just a reminder of pain “Wait Wait Wait… Don’t Want Your Dog?” - half gameshow, half intervention “House” - we gather some people here to continue the oral tradition of handing down the adventures of Doctor House “Murder my Brooklyn Monsterio” - turns out we know the same monsterio “Why Secrets?” - like conspiracies but little “Not This We Draft” - Like the British Office, but it’s a Constitution for beer “Stay The Baseball of Threed’s and the Bad Murdere’s Hard’s Universe” - sounds like journalism “The Advice Podcast” - we can’t believe nobody’s claimed this one yet
