Podcasts about humans

In this episode, I'm joined by James Kimmel Jr. JD, a lecturer in psychiatry at the Yale School of Medicine and author of The Science of Revenge, to explore what the latest neuroscience tells us about revenge, grievance, and retaliation. We discuss how the brain's reward system becomes activated in response to perceived harm—often fueling cycles of conflict that begin in childhood. Together, we examine how understanding these mechanisms can help us teach our children to reframe grievances, regulate emotional responses, and move toward forgiveness, both in everyday sibling conflicts and larger social dynamics.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

Is alcohol finally losing its cool? In this episode of That Sober Guy Podcast, we dive into a question more and more people are starting to ask: Is booze becoming the new cigarette? Once glamorized, now scrutinized, alcohol might be heading for a cultural downgrade.We break down the data showing the massive shift in drinking trends, including the rise of non-alcoholic drinks, declining alcohol sales, and how more high-performing men are ditching the booze to level up in business, relationships, and mental clarity. From concerts to ball games to boardrooms, being the sober guy is no longer lame. In fact, it's becoming a superpower.You'll hear real talk, a few laughs, and maybe even a flashback to that old baseball coach who smelled like a distillery and told you to “walk it off.” Spoiler alert: He's not the vibe anymore.Actionable Takeaways:Rethink the “normal” social script—being sober doesn't mean being boring.Start tracking how alcohol actually impacts your energy, mood, and performance.Try swapping booze for a quality NA beer or sparkling hop water next time you're out.

Much of the scientific process involves searching. But rather than continue to rely on the luck of discovery, Google DeepMind has engineered a more efficient AI agent that mines complex spaces to facilitate scientific breakthroughs. Sarah Guo speaks with Pushmeet Kohli, VP of Science and Strategic Initiatives, and research scientist Matej Balog at Google DeepMind about AlphaEvolve, an autonomous coding agent they developed that finds new algorithms through evolutionary search. Pushmeet and Matej talk about how AlphaEvolve tackles the problem of matrix multiplication efficiency, scaling and iteration in problem solving, and whether or not this means we are at self-improving AI. Together, they also explore the implications AlphaEvolve has to other sciences beyond mathematics and computer science. Sign up for new podcasts every week.

BT & Sal discuss the awful scene in Chicago Tuesday night.

Overview: We explore the complexities of trust, cultural values, and intergenerational dynamics within the Filipino community, especially in accessing mental health and healthcare services. We discuss how deep-rooted traditions like family obligation, community support, and the stigma surrounding mental health influence care-seeking behaviors across generations. Through community-driven initiatives like Little Manila Rising, we highlight how culturally rooted, trauma-informed approaches—such as engaging churches, honoring ancestral spaces, and providing culturally competent care—foster healing, advocacy, and stronger relationships between healthcare providers and the community. Three Takeaways: Leveraging Churches and Food as Cultural ConnectorsBoth Hannah and Raj highlight practical strategies for bridging generational divides: churches are vital hubs for reaching elders (who may trust faith leaders more than therapists), while food acts as a unifier across age groups, providing a non-threatening entry point for community dialogue and engagement. Healing Hinges on Intergenerational Dialogue and Community-Led SpacesSpaces intentionally created for both young and old to share—such as wellness panels and focus groups—are potent for mutual understanding. There's a recurring theme that healing happens when the community is not just “served” but is leading and hosting the work, drawing on ancestral memory and lived experience Culturally Responsive Healthcare Goes Beyond ‘Cultural Competency'Tessa and Hannah stress that healthcare providers must go beyond textbook cultural competency. This includes offering trauma-informed care, involving families in treatment, actively engaging with community organizations (like Little Manila Rising), and educating themselves rather than outsourcing the labor of education to the community. Providers who do this, even if not sharing ethnic identity with patients, can vastly improve trust and outcomes.

I am honored to connect with Eamon Dolan today. Eamon is a book editor and is currently the Vice President and Executive Editor at Simon and Schuster. In our conversation, we discuss Eamon's book, The Power of Parting, where he explores the often-overlooked realities of abuse, shedding light on the lack of education and understanding of various types of abuse, including physical, sexual, psychological, and neglect. We explore the effects of shame, the silent conspiracy that surrounds abuse, and ways in which neuroplasticity and intentional parenting can help break generational cycles. We examine the effects of complex PTSD, adverse childhood experiences, and the connection between early trauma and physical ailments like autoimmune disorders, reproductive challenges, and digestive issues. We also reflect on our roles in childhood, how abuse shapes the developing brain, the dangers of gaslighting, and the traits of narcissistic personality disorder. In this candid and personal conversation, I share my childhood and what I witnessed while growing up with Eamon, hoping to offer clarity, comfort, and a sense of connection to anyone facing similar challenges. The Power of Parting is an essential read, particularly for those of us navigating the lasting effects of childhood abuse. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: The culture of silence surrounding abuse has led to many cases going unheard and unreported  Neurological and psychological effects of abuse Humans are wired to form family bonds with strangers. How abusive and chaotic environments often become normalized for those living within them Why survivors of abuse need to reframe their family relationships Statistics on abuse survivors and the likelihood of breaking abuse cycles Traumatic stress disorder vs.PTSD? Gaslighting is not benign. How abused children tend to rationalize mistreatment, believing it comes from love Holding family members to the same standards as friends Breaking free from toxic relationships Bio: Eamon Dolan has worked as an editor at HarperCollins, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, and Penguin Press.

Climate change, global warming – we've all heard the steady drumbeat of doom. But a recent five-year forecast, by the World Meteorological Organization and the U.K. Meteorological Office, puts it starkly: The world will likely soon break another annual temperature record and, according to the Associated Press, the heat will be deadly. What would happen if we embraced the idea that the future still rests firmly in our hands? Is it in our nature to learn, adapt and change? And, equally important, is there still time? Author and climate scientist Kate Marvel dives into those questions in her new book “Human Nature,” on bookshelves now. She joins USA TODAY's The Excerpt to share her perspective.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In his new book, The Science of Revenge, James Kimmel Jr. argues that there is a human desire to get even – and it might even be an addiction. Kimmel Jr., a professor at the Yale School of Medicine, realized his own taste for retaliation as a teenager and later felt that he would benefit from a kind of "revenge rehab." In today's episode, the author tells NPR's Michel Martin that revenge lights up the same area of the brain activated by drug addiction. They also discuss the role of revenge in U.S. politics and the biological benefits of forgiveness.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

On today's show we are looking at our human ability to forecast non linear effects and in particular how this relates to economic forecasts. We are accustomed to looking at the world in very linear ways. When we see a car approaching most people are pretty good at estimating whether they have enough time to cross the road as long as the car is travelling at constant speed. But if the car is accelerating, virtually all people have a very hard time assessing whether it is safe to cross the road.That's the difference between a linear and a non linear system. Non linear systems have some form of acceleration.We see these types of systems all over the place. Over the short term, if the acceleration is small, people have a tendency to make linear approximations which are accurate enough over the short term.The US government makes regular updates to the financial health of the social security system. It's no secret that the math which funds the social security system is breaking down. When social security was first conceived there were 16 people in the workforce for every one person collecting benefits. Demographics have changed and today there are less than 3 people contributing for every person collecting. Another non-linear effect.We know that for the economy to grow, the population needs to grow. Shrinking working population means shrinking economy. This is a non-linear effect. The industrial revolution replaced a lot of manual labour with machinery. It didn't eliminate manual labor for all tasks. For those repetitive tasks that can be easily programmed, machines have replaced humans. The theory was that machines could replace manual labor, but not thinking. Humans would continue to be the brains behind the work performed.  But we do know that some knowledge work has already been replaced by AI and that proportion is only going to increase. So what happens to the falling demand for employees that have been replaced by AI? What will become of our society? Can we truly forecast the economy that is being impacted by so many non-linear factors?----------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

The Chosen has become an international sensation. It's available in more than 50 different languages, in countries all around the world. And whether you know what it's about or not, doesn't the title alone pique your interest? I mean, don't we all want to be chosen?  Humans are wired for belonging. We're designed for community. We all want to be desired, known, and loved... to be chosen. We are about a quarter of the way through our summer study, Upside Down Kingdom: The Gospel According to Mark. This week, we find Jesus picking teammates to be part of His inner circle. Except, He doesn't exactly pick the cream of the crop. Instead, it seems more like He's scraping the bottom of the barrel! Jesus chooses the rejected, the outcast, the traitor, and the skeptic. He surrounds Himself with those who have been passed over or left out - the ones who didn't quite measure up. And He invites them to belong. In doing so, He establishes a new kind of family - one where the misfits and marginalized can find a home. And so can you. I invite you to join us this Sunday at 11 AM. You'll find us online by clicking the "Join Us Sunday" button on our website or connect with us via our YouTube channel. Or, better yet, come worship with us in person!  Enjoy coffee, cookies and conversation with friends, old or new, in the Lobby before the service. We would love to get to know you. We do know that 11 AM on Sunday doesn't work for everyone. If that's you, the service will be available on-demand, so you can watch at a time that works better for your schedule.

In this third story we're sharing in partnership with the Center for Humans and Nature, ecosystem ecologist Liam Heneghan turns to a council of philosophers and physicists to help reconcile the human experience of growth with the reality of decay as he keeps vigil by his father's bedside. He contemplates how closely life sits at the margins of death—one bleeding into the other—and wonders what can be learned from the everyday breakdown of leaves, milk, friendships, solar systems that might orient us to the nature of our own passage from life to death. As his father passes—elements dispersing into air and soil—Liam recognizes that all that flourishes must return to Earth; that in decay, something always endures.  Read the essay.

Are you holding back, waiting for the “right” decision? In this episode, Shannon Waller and Dan Sullivan reveal why taking action—even imperfect action—is the key to entrepreneurial momentum. Discover how making any decision unlocks feedback, reduces anxiety, and activates your best thinking, while indecision keeps you stuck. Plus, learn practical strategies to overcome perfectionism and move forward. Here's some of what you'll learn in this episode:The importance of making a decision that requires that you take action.How indecision leads to more indecision.What you sacrifice when you refuse to choose.How to get a clear picture of the situation you're in. Show Notes: Taking action, even with imperfect information, is better than staying stuck in indecision. The problem with making no decision is that you're not changing the situation that's paralyzing you. When you can't make a decision, the pressure builds on you exponentially, as does the feeling of isolation and disconnection from your team and your goals. As soon as you start taking action, you get an enormous amount of information about whether it was a right action or a wrong action.Perfectionism is the enemy of progress. Humans are best when they're in motion. People become unproductive when they're not making decisions. You don't have to make the right decision. You can make a decision, and then make it right. Clarity and confidence come after you commit, not before. Decisive entrepreneurs make mistakes, but they also learn and adapt much faster than indecisive ones. When you're indecisive, you lose access to your wisdom, experience, and problem-solving abilities. The act of deciding eliminates alternative options and allows your mind to focus on what matters most. Protecting your role and saying no to distractions is a by-product of being decisive about your commitments. The word “decide” literally means to “kill off” alternatives, freeing you from mental clutter and overwhelm. Resources: The 4 C's Formula by Dan Sullivan The Gap And The Gain by Dan Sullivan with Dr. Benjamin Hardy The Impact Filter™

Don't Put Faith in Humans

How can you stand out in a crowded marketplace? Think beyond the product or service you're selling, and make sure you provide customers and clients with an experience they'll remember. Dan Sullivan and Jeffrey Madoff share the benefits of creating unique memories in “the experience economy.” Show Notes:Every purchase is an investment in a future experience. It's rarely about the product or service itself.In many cases, what you're really buying is confirmation of status—a way to signal who you are (or who you aspire to be).In the experience economy, people talk about how they experience certain products or services. In essence, what's being sold isn't the product—it's the memory associated with it. How you feel about a transaction matters more than what you bought. Nostalgia plays a big role here. We like things that connect us to when we were younger. Humans are constantly integrating past, present, and future and creating meaning out of their experiences. Identity is deeply connected to memory. Resources:The Experience Economy by B.

The essence of Being Human is the practice of Biocultural Reproduction (BCR). BCR is defined as the set of marriage and kinship based rules for extra-maternal cooperation in the production, feeding, and care of offspring. Human evolution theory needs to explain how people successfully combined a vastly extended period of offspring dependency and delayed reproduction with helpless newborns — with large heads and much body fat (even with problems giving birth) -- a short duration of breast-feeding, an adolescent growth spurt, and vigorous post-menopause valuable grandmothers. Are these characteristics a package or a mosaic? Series: "CARTA - Center for Academic Research and Training in Anthropogeny" [Humanities] [Science] [Show ID: 40697]

Grab your bug spray and your bravery — this week, we're heading deep into the woods. In this Encounters episode, we're sharing spine-chilling stories of camping trips gone paranormally wrong from listeners just like you. What was that noise outside the tent? What was that bright flash of light? Who – and WHAT is lurking in the forest at night? Aliens? Humans? Bigfoot? Or something else entirely? All we know for certain is that we are not packing our bags and going camping anytime soon… but we know YOU are and it's best to stay alert.  Stories Include: Haunted Appalachia Trail tales A camper's dad sees a doppelgänger leading him into the woods — but she's standing right beside him. Haunted bathrooms on the Machu Picchu trail, complete with a lurking shadow outside the stall. A man in the forest claims he's been aboard the mothership — and offers a book about his alien travels. A woodland trail (or portal?) in Australia marked by creepy dolls, unreal sounding birds, and a cow-shaped spirit waiting in the trees. Whether it's Bigfoot energy, inter-dimensional tricksters, or humans being the scariest things in the forest, this episode will have you rethinking your next hike. Stay safe, stay spooky — and maybe don't venture off into the woods alone. Scooter LaForge tees (as seen on White Lotus and Sabrina). Instagram Watch the video version here.

From the earliest bipedal ancestors to the dawn of spiritual awareness, we delve into the archaeological, anthropological, and theological questions surrounding our shared past. Join us over two episodes as we uncover the blurred lines between ancient hominins and modern humans, and ponder the moments that shaped our anatomy, behavior, and spirit. Building on our journey through the Paleolithic, this second episode explores the profound spiritual developments that occurred as Homo sapiens became the sole surviving species in our genus. We seek to understand the emergence of uniquely human spiritual tendencies and our ongoing relationship with the Divine with some stops at ancient sites in Orkney, Scotland and the American Southwest, to examine the rise of symbolic thought, the earliest cave paintings, and the beginnings of agriculture in the Neolithic period. These sacred landscapes offer tangible glimpses into the spiritual lives of our ancient ancestors. Theme song and credits music by Breakmaster Cylinder.

There is war in the middle east again! Today we talk about the recent escalation of conflict between Israel and Iran, with speculation that the U.S. may be involved indirectly. Media narratives are particularly frustrating, with uncertainty and conflicting reports make it difficult to know what's truly happening. This definitely parallels the financial markets, particularly with how differing narratives shape reactions during times of volatility with many often making moves on perception rather than confirmed facts. The war could potentially impact on oil prices and inflation among other global economic repercussions despite the U.S. being more energy independent. We discuss... War has reignited in the Middle East, with Israel attacking Iran and missiles flying in both directions. There's confusion about U.S. involvement, with implications that support for Israel exists behind the scenes. The biggest economic concern is the potential for rising oil prices and inflation due to conflict. Oil futures spiked shortly after the attack, raising suspicions of insider trading among politicians. The discussion draws parallels between the chaos of war and financial markets—both are driven by incomplete, misleading, or rapidly evolving information. The role of algorithms and the lack of liquidity are blamed for severe price swings during market disruptions. Humans feel compelled to understand market movements even when there may be no clear explanation. Market price is the most honest signal, but its drivers are often unknowable or misleading. The U.S. is stepping back from global policing, reinforcing an “America First” geopolitical posture. China is rapidly overtaking Western industries like autos, robotics, and nuclear energy. Global money printing continues to fuel equity markets despite mixed economic signals. Investment strategy should focus on capital flows, not moral preferences or outdated macro narratives. ESG investing appeals to emotions, but maximizing returns and funding good later may be more effective. Google quietly changed its algorithm to penalize independent contractors on major media platforms. Search is undergoing a dramatic transformation due to AI, fundamentally changing how users and companies interact with information. Google's ad business is threatened as users shift from browsing search results to receiving direct AI-generated answers. New technologies upend existing industries, especially if introduced abruptly without time to adapt. The global AI race—especially against China—is accelerating progress beyond what's safe or manageable. AI will likely displace workers not all at once, but gradually as its capabilities expand and efficiencies are realized. AI thinks differently than humans—it doesn't require order or structure to understand inputs. Learning how to think and work with AI is becoming a crucial new skill set.

My guest is Michael Easter, a professor at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and best-selling author. We discuss how particular daily life choices undermine our level of joy, our sense of purpose, our physical and our mental health and the daily, weekly, monthly and yearly steps we can all take to vastly increase our level of motivation, gratitude and overall life satisfaction. We discuss how effortful foraging for information, undistracted reflection and physical exercise are ways to ‘invest' and therefore grow our levels of dopamine, energy and motivation, whereas low-friction activities are specifically designed to hijack or diminish them. We also discuss dopamine reward circuitry in the context of how to build and reset one's energy levels and create a deeper sense of purpose in work, creative pursuits and relationships.
