Biologist and bestselling author Dr. Jonathan Balcombe joins me to discuss fish sentience, the surprising intelligence of fishes, and what science reveals about how they think and feel. Jonathan holds a PhD in ethology, the study of animal behaviour, and has dedicated his career to understanding and communicating the inner lives of animals. He's the author of five popular science books and has published over 60 scientific papers and book chapters on animal behaviour and animal protection. In this conversation, we dive into fascinating research showing that fishes can experience stress relief, fall for optical illusions, and even build social relationships—evidence that challenges long-held assumptions about these often-overlooked animals. We also explore the ethics of fishing and insect farming, the evolving science of animal sentience, and how language shapes our empathy toward other species.
Episode OverviewWhat does it really mean to design a game — and what can that teach us about culture, creativity, and even our daily lives? In this episode, Greg is joined by Eric Zimmerman, legendary game designer, professor at NYU's Game Center, and author of The Rules We Break. Eric's career spans from pioneering web-based multiplayer with Sissy Fight 2000 to co-founding GameLab and shaping Diner Dash, one of the most influential time-management games ever made.We dig into the fundamentals of game design, the ethics of addictive mechanics, the surprising history of Monopoly, and why prototyping isn't just for developers — it's a mindset for anyone building systems or communities.Joining us for this conversation is Lewis Ward, long-time industry analyst, who helps unpack Eric's insights with both sharp questions and nostalgia for 90s game culture.What You'll Learn in This Episode Iteration as a Superpower – Why prototyping is the start of design, not the end. Feedback Everywhere – How observing body language and engagement rhythms tells you more than analytics. Sissy Fight 2000 & Early Multiplayer – The “flame wars” era and lessons for today's online communities. Diner Dash's Secret – How a “casual” game ended up brutally difficult — and why that mattered. Loops Within Loops – What makes Balatro so compelling, and how game design patterns keep players hooked. Ethics & Addiction – Dark design patterns, dopamine hits, and the responsibility of game creators. The Rules We Break – How Eric uses hands-on exercises to teach design as a 21st-century literacy. The Real Monopoly Story – Why one of the world's most iconic games is often misunderstood.Resources & Links Eric Zimmerman's book: The Rules We Break Classic text: Rules of Play (Zimmerman & Salen) NYU Game Center: gamecenter.nyu.edu Follow Player Driven for more conversations: playerdriven.ioEpisode Chapters00:00 – Intro & Eric's background03:30 – Teaching game design & iteration13:30 – Sissy Fight 2000 & the flame war era21:00 – Diner Dash and the rise of “casual” games26:30 – Feedback loops, dopamine, and ethics42:00 – The Rules We Break: learning design through play50:30 – Monopoly, culture, and closing reflectionsCall to ActionEnjoyed this episode?

Ted Gioia warned this would be a tough week—and he wasn't kidding. Week 33 of the Immersive Humanities Project had me wrestling with three giants of philosophy: Descartes, Kant, and Spinoza. I started with Descartes' Discourse on the Method, where his famous “I think, therefore I am” felt surprisingly direct and human. His four rules for reasoning—question, divide, simplify, and review—made him seem less like an abstract philosopher and more like a kind, curious friend.Kant's Groundwork for the Metaphysics of Morals was another story. Dense and demanding, it centers on the “Categorical Imperative”: act only according to principles you'd accept as universal law. It's a moral system built purely on duty, not emotion.Then came Spinoza's Ethics, written like a geometry proof. His radical idea—that God and Nature are one—left little room for the supernatural or free will.When reading failed, I turned to the 1987 Great Philosophers series with Brian Magee, which unlocked everything. These thinkers—Continental Rationalists all—believed reason alone could uncover truth, unlike the British Empiricists who demanded evidence. It was a mentally exhausting but fascinating stretch, and next week I'm relieved to return to fiction with Goethe's The Sorrows of Young Werther.LINKTed Gioia/The Honest Broker's 12-Month Immersive Humanities Course (paywalled!)My Amazon Book List (NOT an affiliate link)CONNECTThe complete list of Crack the Book Episodes: https://cheryldrury.substack.com/p/crack-the-book-start-here?r=u3t2rTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/ LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5GpySInw1e8IqNQvXow7Lv?si=9ebd5508daa245bdApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/crack-the-book/id1749793321 Captivate - https://crackthebook.captivate.fm
Astronomy Cast Ep. 770: The Ethics of Mars Exploration By Fraser Cain & Dr. Pamela Gay Streamed live on Nov 3, 2025. Hosted by: Fraser Cain and Dr. Pamela L. Gay. It is arguable that humanity now has the technological ability to live on Mars. It would be done at enormous expense and sacrifice, and there are some tricky problems that we haven't solved yet. Although we could live on Mars, should we? There is a famous quote from Jurassic Park: "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should." This concept is played out across the sciences, and in planetary exploration, it requires us to ask, all because we can launch humans toward Mars, should we?

Susie and Sarah are psyched about the Louvre heist especially because there was a woman involved, but Sarah's mom is not so pleased. We hear why one UFC fighter is being challenged about his use of a diabolical tactic of tickling, and we learn why it's seen as "unsportsmanlike." We debate the ethics of free diving and why some people think inhaling pure oxygen beforehand is "cheating." Susie watched the Aileen Wournos documentary, and despite being very familiar with the murderes, she still learned a lot that complicated her opinion of what happened. Finally, we debate a viral DoorDash delivery issue where a woman claimed to be "assaulted" by a customer, but believe it or not we're on his side...Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:For a limited time get 40% off your first box PLUS get a free item in every box for life.

In this episode, Paul Krauss, MA LPC, interviews author and philanthropist Nick Cooney about his new book, "What We Don't Do: Inaction in the Face of Suffering and the Drive to Do More." Together, they examine how Cooney challenges listeners to confront the hidden consequences of their inaction, arguing that today, failing to act in the face of suffering can have even greater repercussions than direct harm. The conversation delves into psychological barriers that keep people from responding to global and local crises, while highlighting practical, empowering steps to transform awareness into meaningful intervention. Through accessible dialogue and Cooney's research-driven insights, Krauss guides listeners to reflect on how cultivating an attitude toward considering what they don't do and what they do-- can translate everyday choices into powerful, positive change. Nick Cooney is the founder and Managing Partner of Lever VC, a venture capital fund focused on alternative protein startups with a global investment reach. He has spent nearly two decades advancing the alternative protein sector, including founding the Lever Foundation and Good Food Institute, and has written extensively on food innovation and philanthropy. Cooney is an influential industry leader, recognized for his investments, writings, and global speaking engagements on plant-based and clean meat industries.

For this 55th episode of the show, it seemed appropriate to bring on the man responsible for starting the Ahi Va Podcast. In February of 2021 Brandon Butler was in New Mexico hunting over-the-counter barbary sheep with NMWF's executive director Jesse Deubel. As the two men drove to and from hunting spots they intermittently listened to a variety of hunting/conservation podcasts. As the owner of Driftwood Outdoors, Brandon was no stranger to podcasting.In fact, following a successful hunt Brandon and Jesse actually recorded an episode of the Driftwood Outdoors Podcast.If you're interested in listening to that episode it's episode #78: The Man in the Arena: Jesse Deubel. After recording the show, Brandon suggested that the New Mexico Wildlife Federation should have its own podcast and Jesse should be the host. After some reluctance, Jesse agreed and the show was born.The New Mexico Wildlife Federation owes a huge debt of gratitude to the Driftwood Outdoors team, specifically Nathan "Shags" McLeod and Brandon Butler for professionally producing the show each month. We've featured some interesting topics and spoken with some incredible people. We're happy that Brandon Butler's name is now added to that list of special guests. In this conversation Jesse and Brandon discuss a variety of conservation issues from corner crossing to chronic wasting disease and PFAS-forever chemicals. It's a great show with lots of twists and turns, a few laughs and plenty of wisdom being shared.Enjoy the Listen!

Summary In this episode of the AI for Sales podcast, Chad Burmeister and Bryan Weinman engage with Mandar Karhade, a technical and growth strategist in healthcare. They explore the intersection of AI and customer experience, the challenges of AI adoption in healthcare, and the ethical considerations surrounding AI technology. Mandar shares insights on the importance of trust, the need for human-centered approaches in AI implementation, and the sluggish pace of change in the healthcare industry. The conversation emphasizes the necessity of focusing on human experiences rather than profit motives in AI development. Takeaways AI is not a problem, it's the process. People often know what to do. They don't do what they know. Trust has to be built over time. You need to feel comfortable to do anything. AI is a tricky knife in healthcare. Invest in learning to program to solve business solutions. Ethics is a problem with humans, not AI. You need to meet customers where they are. The industry is extremely sluggish and not changing much. Focus on the human experience, profit follows.

Today, we speak to Dr. Calum Miller, who is an ethicist and a philosopher who cares passionately about the issue of pre-born life. Join us as he teaches us how to enter into the debate with the winsome truth of biology and the compelling grace-filled way in which we can convey hope to a woman who struggles in this area. Today, we will learn to think critically and biblically.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

He also teaches screenwriting and is a screenwriter, as well as the author of several books including Primal Intelligence: You Are Smarter Than You Know, Storythinking: The New Science of Narrative Intelligence, and Wonderworks: The 25 Most Powerful Inventions in the History of Literature.Greg and Angus discuss the intersection of story science and philosophy, emphasizing the importance of mythos and narrative thinking as opposed to logos, the purely logical, data-driven approaches in areas like decision-making and leadership. Angus outlines how neurophysiology and the brain's natural restlessness contribute to human intelligence and explores the practical applications of narrative cognition in fields ranging from military operations to education and business. He highlights the role of literature in developing imagination, perspective, and emotional intelligence, arguing for its integration into educational systems and other training programs to cultivate better leaders, thinkers, and problem-solvers.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:Why fear and anger are the two most powerful emotions41:50: I worked a long time with operators on this, and we particularly worked on fear and anger because those are our two most powerful emotions. Those are our fight-or-flight responses. Fear is flight, and anger is fight. And you know what is going on there? Well, what is going on there is your brain has a bias to action. Your brain always wants to be doing something. The moment that your brain is sitting still, it feels extremely vulnerable, so it always wants to have a plan. And when your brain experiences a severe threat and it realizes this threat is so new, so different, that it does not have a plan that it has confidence in, it does not know what to do here—that is when your brain starts to feel scared. That is when you feel fear. So the question is, why is fear the emotion that your brain evolved? Why did it not evolve some other emotion, like curiosity or whatever? And the answer is just because fear makes you incredibly susceptible to outside influence. The more scared you are, the smarter other people's suggestions sound.Emotion is the smartest thing in your brain41:06: Emotion is the smartest thing in your brain. If you're not using your emotions, you're severely limiting your intelligence. And the reason that we know emotion is the smartest thing in the brain is it's the oldest form of intelligence in the brain, so it's been keeping you alive for hundreds of millions of years.Stories help us imagine alternatives13:11: When you tell someone a story effectively, it allows them to imagine themselves in that position. And then what they do in that position is they imagine, what could I do? And when that's done effectively, what it allows them to do is imagine alternatives—not just alternatives from what they themselves are doing in their own lives, but alternatives to what the individuals did in that situation.Why modern life produces so much anxiety46:21: Why is it that so many people are experiencing over-anxiety in our modern world? Well, the first thing is that too many people spend their time inside these artificially stable environments where they're just not used to anything being unstable. If you spend all your time in the suburbs, and bananas are always there, even in the middle of the winter when you go to the supermarket and the whatnot, you know, then you're not ever coping or having to engage with even a mild amount of instability or volatility. So the moment you encounter any of it, you immediately freak out and think that something must be wrong.Show Links:Recommended Resources:MythosLogosDaniel KahnemanDual Process TheoryI. A.

S3 E14 Why Do You Do It That Way Episode Bob Cutler celebrates ten years of Novio's by answering guest questions about the restaurant's rhythms—from closing Sundays to designing the prefix menu—and by explaining how wine dinners, whiskey allocations, and work-life balance all connect to a simple philosophy: serve with integrity, creativity, and heart. Key Topics Hospitality and Balance Bob's choices—like closing Sundays and summer Saturdays—reflect a belief that hospitality starts with caring for staff as much as guests. A rested, happy team delivers a better experience. Creativity from Constraint The prefix menu and wine dinners were born from challenge. By turning limitations into opportunity, Novio's has created signature experiences that now define its style. Ethics and Community in Business From refusing to overcharge for rare whiskey to teaching honesty in competition, Bob shows how integrity builds trust and keeps Maine's dining culture thriving. Episode Index (3:20–4:26) Why Novio's always closes Sundays—and even skipped Valentine's Day—to give staff guaranteed family time and preserve quality. (5:21–6:15) Summer Saturdays off: giving the team full weekends during Maine's best months while keeping Monday nights strong. (6:15–7:51) The origins of Novio's wine dinners with Chef Barton Seaver and Barboursville Vineyards, and how they became part of the restaurant's identity. (11:03–12:29) The prefix menu born from pandemic-era spacing rules—now a four-course format that enhances value and experience. (13:18–17:14) Inside the bourbon "allocation" debate: why fair pricing, open bottles, and bartender storytelling matter more than hype or resale.
The imagination has regularly been subordinated to so-called "rational" or "scientific" models of thought. This week, we're joined by Stephen T. Asma (Columbia College, Chicago), who argues that imagination has deep, perhaps pre-linguistic, roots that ought to be recovered. What if we re-centered the powers of imagination, rooted in imagistic thinking and bodily gestures (like dance), instead of dismissing them as mere "fancy"?Drawing on the esoteric tradition, Asma leads us through an interesting alt-history of human thought and, in doing so, gives us reason to pause and re-think our prejudice against imaginative thinking.Full episode notes available at this link:https://hotelbarpodcast.com/imagination-with-stephen-asma---------------------SUBSCRIBE to the podcast now to automatically download new episodes!SUPPORT Hotel Bar Podcast on Patreon here!

In this episode of the Parsha Review Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores Parshas Vayeira, the fourth portion in Genesis, focusing on Abraham's experiences and virtues. He highlights Abraham's revolutionary monotheism and his open-tent hospitality, exemplified by welcoming guests even while recovering from circumcision at age 99. God mercifully makes the day extremely hot to deter travelers, allowing Abraham rest, yet he eagerly runs to greet three angels disguised as men. These angels deliver missions: healing Abraham, announcing Sarah's impending pregnancy, and preparing to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah. Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes humility as essential for true kindness, drawing from the Ramban's letter advising to view others as greater, fostering respect and empathy.The discussion delves into the necessity of truth (Emes) for humility and self-improvement, quoting the Chida on avoiding arrogance by honestly assessing one's flaws and gifts from God. Rabbi Wolbe explains that truth demands no compromise, unlike modern courts or even halacha (except for mezuzah placement symbolizing household peace). He stresses accepting personal shortcomings—such as overindulgence or arrogance—as the first step to repair, noting that denial prevents growth. Abraham's plea for Sodom, despite its wickedness, reflects his humble recognition of potential in others and reliance on divine gifts like persuasion.Ultimately, Rabbi Wolbe teaches that success lies in effort, not results, as per the Mishnah in Ethics of Our Fathers: one must strive without expecting to complete the task. He shares personal anecdotes, like his father's focus on best effort over grades, and urges listeners to build individual closeness to God, like the patriarchs, through daily mitzvot and truth.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine's "Far Beyond the Stars" is an examination of racism in science fiction, then and now. When Captain Sisko experiences a vision of himself as Benny Russell, a Black science fiction writer in 1950s New York whose story about a Black space station captain gets rejected and pulped, the episode becomes a meta-commentary on the genre itself. Matthew and Riki unpack how this episode critiques not just 1950s racism, but the sci-fi publishing world of the 1960s and 1990s and even Star Trek's own blind spots, while exploring what it means when we fail to imagine beyond our own experiences.Questions We Discussed:How does "Far Beyond the Stars" critique both 1950s racism and the science fiction publishing world of the 1990s?Why did the episode focus exclusively on Benny Russell's pain rather than showing how his white colleagues reacted to being called out?Is Avery Brooks' emotional performance as Benny overacting, or does our inability to imagine his pain reveal our own failure of imagination?What does the episode reveal about the difference between "wishing" things were better and actually taking action against injustice?How has this episode aged since 1998, and why do many viewers find it hits harder on a rewatch as adults?Articles Mentioned:Deep Space Nine's ‘Far Beyond the Stars' is about Star Trek Itself by Joshua M PattonFar Beyond Those Distant Stars: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and an Afrofuturistic Approach to Religion by Roger A Sneed**************************************************************************This episode is a production of Superhero Ethics, a The Ethical Panda Podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

On technology, transhumanism, and progress. James Hughes (Exec Director, Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies) and Eli Sennesh (postdoc, Vanderbilt) present a futurist approach to Alex and contributing editor Leigh Phillips. What is wrong with the acronym TESCREAL? Why is it wrong to worry about future transhumanism when we need to grapple with the technologies of now? What are the limits of bourgeois futurism? What is an alternative futurism? Has AI changed everything? Will it? Are we actually living in an age of rapid technological advance?

This conversation explores the intersection of mathematics and human experience, focusing on historical figures, philosophical debates, and the ethical implications of scientific progress. Jason Socrates Bardi discusses his book 'The Great Math War', which delves into the personal stories of mathematicians, the challenges of teaching math, and the relevance of these themes in today's world, particularly in the context of AI and misinformation.Takeaways The personal experiences of mathematicians shape their work. Philosophical clashes in mathematics reflect broader societal issues. Hilbert's optimism about problem-solving parallels today's AI discussions. Historical context is crucial in understanding mathematical developments. Ethics in science must be prioritized to avoid past mistakes. There are limits to human knowledge that we must acknowledge. Mathematics is a fundamental human skill, not just for the gifted. The future of mathematics will be influenced by AI and technology. Understanding historical fallacies can inform current practices. Kovalevsky's story is an inspiring example of overcoming barriers.Chapters 00:00 The Personal Journey Behind The Great Math War 03:08 The Philosophical Clash in Mathematics 05:13 The Great Math War: Key Players and Their Missions 07:38 The Foundations of Mathematics: Paradoxes and Theories 08:55 The Role of Historical Context in Mathematics 10:00 The Human Side of Mathematics: Stories of Resilience 12:36 Ethics in Science and the Modern Age 14:56 The Future of Mathematics and Technology 25:32 The Spectrum of Idealism and Realism 26:13 Understanding Ignoramus et Ignoramnibus 29:04 Neuroscience and the Evolution of Mathematics 33:12 The Future of AI and Consciousness 35:31 Fallacies and Paradoxes in Mathematics 38:31 The Legacy of Sofia Kovalesky 43:10 The Great Math War: A Reflection on Logic and HumanityFollow Jason on LinkedIn, Twitter, and find his new book here.Subscribe to Breaking Math wherever you get your podcasts.Follow Breaking Math on Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Website, YouTube, TikTokFollow Autumn on Twitter, BlueSky, and InstagramBecome a guest hereemail: breakingmathpodcast@gmail.com
Today we go deep on throuples—what makes a three-person relationship (triad) work in real life. Our guest is Dr. Rachael Meir, a Stanford-trained psychologist, sex & relationship coach, author of 50 Questions to Ask Before Opening Your Relationship, and host of retreats designed specifically for throuples.In this episode (throuple-forward): • Shapes of throuples: V vs. closed triad, the “everyone dates everyone” myth, and why symmetry isn't the only path to stability. • Avoiding triangles (the bad kind): How to reduce coalitions, secret alliances, and “two against one” dynamics with simple, predictable check-ins. • Jealousy in 3s: Why jealousy feels different in a triad, Dr. Meir's “dashboard warning light” frame, and how to respond without spiraling. • Differentiation = less codependence: Staying three whole people (not one fused blob) actually strengthens the connection between all of you. • Logistics that keep love humane: Calendars, re-entry rituals, and short “state-of-us” huddles so no one becomes the project manager (or the parent). • Ethics & invitations: Power imbalances, “unicorn hunting,” and creating consent that's real for all three partners—not just the original pair. • Retreat lessons: What Dr. Meir sees thriving throuples do differently (language, expectations, and how they handle NRE without breaking the triangle).Plus, we pull 5 key prompts from Dr. Meir's book to ground any non-monogamy journey: • What desires/needs do I believe non-monogamy could fulfill (for me, not just my partner)? • Do I have enough self-esteem to stay out of comparison traps? • Are we differentiated—two/three whole people with overlap—rather than merged? • Are we opening to fill a void/fix a problem (and what would repair look like first)? • What small agreements would make us feel safer without turning into surveillance?Big takeaways you can use tonight • Trade control for clarity: one short weekly check-in beats constant play-by-play. • Re-entry rituals after solo or third-partner time keep connection warm and resentment low. • In triads, fairness ≠ sameness—aim for dignity for all three, not equal minutes.Find Dr. Meir: https://www.drrachaelmeir.com/Naughty Gym: https://www.naughtygym.com/

The impact of AI into every facet of our lives under the name of innovation is raise for concern. We see innovation as the end all be all and justify the means along the way. My passion for AI regulation is deeply rooted in the pursuit of a more ethical future for human kind.

The Modern Therapist's Survival Guide with Curt Widhalm and Katie Vernoy
How Therapists Retire: Planning, Ethics, and Letting Go of the Work You Love – An Interview with Lynn Grodzki, LCSW and Margaret Wehrenberg, PsyD Curt and Katie talk with Lynn Grodzki and Margaret Wehrenberg about how therapists can plan for retirement with intention and integrity. They explore the emotional, ethical, and practical considerations of closing a practice, navigating readiness, and redefining identity after a lifetime of therapeutic work. About Our Guests Lynn Grodzki, LCSW-C, MCC is a pioneer in private practice development and the author of six influential books on therapy and coaching.Margaret Wehrenberg, Psy.D. is an internationally recognized expert on anxiety and depression and the author of 13 books, including The 10 Best-Ever Anxiety Management Techniques. Together, they offer a rare blend of clinical experience, practical strategies, and heartfelt compassion. Key Takeaways for Therapists Retirement is one of the most consequential transitions in a therapist's professional life. Lynn and Margaret's Readiness for Retirement Model helps therapists plan across four stages: pre-contemplation, contemplation, preparation, and action. Planning early supports ethical closure and a smoother emotional process for both therapist and client. Common barriers include guilt, grief, and identity shifts—as well as lack of business or financial planning. Creating a professional will and protecting intellectual property are essential parts of ending well. Therapists can honor their legacy by recognizing the lasting impact of their work and embracing new opportunities in retirement.
