Podcasts about dumber

The boys drink and review Mad Elf, a strong holiday ale, then discuss the idea that college kids are getting dumber. Is that true? We've gone from a time when high schools taught Greek and Latin to a time when colleges teach remedial math. Comedians love to poke fun at the stupidity of our college students with "man on the street" interviews, where college kids can't identify the country to the north. What's happened? For one thing, reading has decline precipitously. For another, many colleges have abandoned entrance requirements. But there's a lot more. * Is it a good thing, as a matter of policy, to have a more educated population? * Is college the right place for everybody? * What's the federal role? There's no question there are uneducated, unprepared, stupid kids in college. But does that mean they're all dumber?

In this episode Barry and Mike discuss Rachel Bitecofer's substack article, “The Whole World is Getting Dumber (And the Smartphone Did It.)” We question whether her solution of banning smart phones from the classroom will make much of a difference or if we just have to go “scorched earth” on technology to regain our attention and focus.

Merry Christmas! Here is an old episode I did with Cayley for her channel where we covered Dumb and Dumber To. We did this for the movies 10 year anniversary.

This week we have...Yep, it's a "normal" week with Mike and Bill. At least it's our version of "normal."Mike started out with his reading and it was about Practicing These Principals In All Our Affairs. Honesty and integrity. Other people being able to count on us and being able to count on ourselves. A great topic and a great conversation.We jumped into how people look at good years and bad years, Danny Trejo, thinking about drinking and slips, a surgery wrap up, Joe Rogan and Jeremy Renner, spreading the message and our sense of humor. When did we get it back after we got sober.We even talked about the weather and how the folks in The Lake of The Ozarks can't handle snow. Last thing. The insult of the week; "Dumber than a bag of hair."Enjoy the episode.

The monetization of every aspect of college football has caused the sport to lose some of its charm. Remember when it was exciting to go to a bowl game? Now, it's just a seemingly endless stream of discussion and complaints of teams missing out on the playoffs. And then you've got situations like Lane Kiffin leaving for a conference rival after leading his former team to its best regular season record ever. Wild stuff.We're also going down on a rabbit hole of classic sports video game features. Thanks for listening!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/sports-r-dumb/donations

When a team member fed me pure ChatGPT fluff instead of their actual expertise, it was time to draw a line. As an early adopter and power user of AI, this episode reveals the exact guidelines now required for using AI in the business—from protecting proprietary knowledge on closed systems to owning every output you submit, even if AI generated it. Learn when AI is brilliant (research, refining messages, automating tasks) versus when it's a road to mediocrity (outsourcing your thinking). The uncomfortable truth: AI has all the information but doesn't really know anything, and lazy AI habits are causing thought atrophy in otherwise smart people. These framework guidelines will help you leverage AI's strengths while protecting what actually makes you valuable.//Welcome to Repeatable Revenue, hosted by strategic growth advisor , Ray J.

Why are adult IQs falling? The whole world is getting dumber, and scientists aren’t quite sure why that is, but it may have something to do with the Flynn Effect. The only area in which intelligence has increased is spatial awareness, which is utilized for playing video games. Many people blame tech, modern communication, fear baiting from online dummies, and environmental factors such as microplastics. So, a lot of our dumbing down is down to information overload. And no, it’s not a Liberal vs. Conservative issue. Is your kid stressed out and also getting dumber? Diagnoses of ADHD, autism, anxiety and depression are skyrocketing. What garbage sides are we wanting to ban from the Thanksgiving table this year? According to surveys, it’s green bean casserole, cranberry sauce and sweet potatoes. Merrill believes it’s not a sauce if you can slice it and eat it with a fork.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week we sat down with Brittney Whorton. Brittney is a bright light in the world whose story should motivate everyone. She is a powerful, smart and funny woman who has met challenges head on and chosen to see the world in the most beautiful way. Brittney writes; "So when you see me push myself physically, know that I won the mental battle years ago, my body is just trying to catch up and soak in every single moment! Pushing myself to greater heights. Dumber things. BIGGER THINGS! Pushing myself to be something that defies every dang odd that was laid out for me by some pretty brilliant medical professionals. Because my amazing team of docs were always terrified of what riding a bike could do to me as my back and hip had been properly destroyed!!! But, I knew I didn't have a choice but to ride.Turns out, they saved my insides and were able to stop the growth of a pretty nasty chronic disease. But riding a bike saved my life!!! And I'm going to live every moment incredibly grateful for the achievements mom and I made with my health; but if you see fear, it is fear that I stop short of my goals and don't find my true physical limit. There is no mental limit, that battle was fought and won years ago. A physical limit looms out there, maybe, I don't really know, but I want to do everything I can to try and find where the physical wins over this mind. This podcast is powered by ZenCast.fm

Norm is just wondering whether Cowboys fans should actually be excited after that Monday Night Football beatdown — or if we should all calm down because, well… it was the Raiders. Dak looks sensational, the offense is rolling, the defense finally remembered football exists, and suddenly the playoff window isn't totally boarded shut.

Is artificial intelligence making life easier—or making our minds weaker? In this episode of The Healthier Tech Podcast, we dive into how over-reliance on artificial intelligence may be reshaping the way we think, learn, and create. Our host unpacks the fascinating concept of cognitive offloading, where we hand off mental work to machines that do it faster, smarter, and with fewer mistakes. But what happens when we stop using those cognitive muscles ourselves? Are we trading convenience for long-term clarity? You'll hear about: How constant use of artificial intelligence might dull memory, creativity, and decision-making. The neuroscience behind why our brains "shut off" when tech takes over thinking. Why relying on artificial intelligence to write, plan, and decide could be changing how we trust ourselves. Practical ways to keep your brain active while still benefiting from smart tools. How to make artificial intelligence your thinking partner, not your mental replacement. This episode blends psychology, philosophy, and digital wellness in a way that's deeply relatable. From writing emails to finding directions, you'll recognize just how much thinking you've quietly outsourced—and how to reclaim it. If you're passionate about living consciously with technology, this is the wake-up call you'll want to hear.
