Send us a textIn this episode, we talk to Prof. Roy Baumeister about the psychology of alcohol use and addiction. We cover topics such as why people drink, the effects of alcohol, the role of emotions such as guilt, and how self-control works. Prof Baumeister is one of the most eminent living psychologists with over 40 books and 700 scientific publications. His book "Willpower: Rediscovering the Greatest Human Strength" (with John Tierney) was a New York Times bestseller.Show notesShould alcohol research say more about the pleasure of alcohol use? A recent article published in the journal of Addiction prompted a range of responses and further comment. In discussing whether harmful effects of alcohol use are over-estimated, I mention studies using Mendelian Randomization. One of the studies in East Asian populations where genetic 'flushing' effects have been used to test whether risks of alcohol consumption providing evidence for there being no protective effects of moderate drinking.A recent meta-analysis looked at how different quality studies appear to account for different findings around low level alcohol consumption, thus explaining the supposed 'health benefits' of low consumption.

En el centro de cada logro humano, de cada historia de éxito personal o profesional, hay una fuerza que, aunque invisible, define quiénes somos y hasta dónde podemos llegar: la fuerza de voluntad. Esa capacidad de resistir la tentación, de elegir el camino difícil pero correcto, de perseverar cuando todo parece en contra. … y sin embargo, vivimos en una época en la que esta habilidad parece más frágil que nunca. Distracciones constantes, impulsos incontrolados y hábitos poco saludables minan nuestra capacidad de mantenernos firmes y alcanzar nuestras metas. En este episodio analizo el libro Fuerza de Voluntad (Willpower: Rediscovering the Greatest Human Strength, 2011), de Roy Baumeister y John Tierney, que explora la ciencia detrás de la fuerza de voluntad, desmitifica cómo funciona y nos ofrece herramientas prácticas para cultivarla y utilizarla como motor de nuestras vidas.

From the 24-hour news cycle to constant doom-scrolling on social media, the world is awash in negative thinking and the mentality that the next crisis is right around the corner. Matt Kibbe is joined by John Tierney, senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, to discuss how this kind of thinking leaves us vulnerable to surrendering our civil liberties to authoritarians eager to take advantage of emergencies, real or imagined. Tierney preaches skepticism on everything from the government narrative on COVID to the pervasive idea that 21st-century America is an oppressive, misogynistic patriarchy and urges viewers not to just accept what they are told by so-called experts.
Richard Dewey joins John Tierney to discuss his documentary Radical Wolfe, which examines the life and work of journalist Tom Wolfe.
Why do we have a negativity bias that predisposes us to focus on bad things in the world? How can we channel that natural tendency to learn and improve, rather that be afraid and depressed by it? What are the implications of negativity bias for the functioning of our society ongoing? In this episode we've got the important topic of the inherent Negativity Bias in human psychology to assess. This is the tendency for bad events, experiences and emotions to have more impact than good ones. We see this in relationships, social patterns, traumatic events, the media and learning processes. Research shows that bad impressions and stereotypes form quicker than good ones, that the self is more motivated to avoid bad self-definitions than to pursue good ones, and even that bad impressions are more thoroughly processed than good ones. This all plays out in out in the media, in the consumer markets and in politics and thus defines our culture ongoing. Is this natural? Is there anything we can do to mitigate it or use it for good? And do we even want to? Fortunately for us our guest today is a specialist in these matters, one of the most prolific and cited psychologists in the world, with over 650 publications, Professor Roy Baumeister. His 40 books include the New York Times bestseller Willpower. His research covers self and identity, self-regulation, interpersonal rejection and the need to belong, sexuality and gender, aggression, self-esteem, meaning, consciousness, free will, and self-presentation, some of which we cover today in connection with negativity bias. In 2013 he received the William James award for lifetime achievement in psychological science (the Association for Psychological Science's highest honor). In 2001 He co-wrote a seminal paper on the very topic of today's episode in, called ‘Bad is Stronger than Good'; and one of his latest books, co-authored with John Tierney, is called “The Power of Bad: How the Negativity Effect Rules Us and How We Can Rule It”.

Why do we do what we don't want to do? And why can't we make ourselves do what we want? Humans have puzzled over this one for ages. But science is starting to clear a window into the motives and biology behind self-control. Science journalist John Tierney teamed up with psychologist and researcher Roy F. Baumeister in 2011 to write about it in their book “Willpower.” For this week's archive broadcast, you'll hear a conversation between Tierney and MPR News host Kerri Miller from early 2012 where they talk about how to understand this coveted human virtue. It hints at the discussion coming this Friday on Big Books and Bold Ideas — a chat with cognitive behaviorist and former professional poker player Annie Duke about the science of quitting. Guest: John Tierney is a science journalist and one-half of the duo behind the book, “Willpower,” published in 2011. To listen to the full conversation you can use the audio player above.

Shit Grows Flowers - Our Road of Trials “When people put you down enough you start to believe it. The bad stuff is always easier to believe, you ever notice that?” Line from Pretty Woman Theresa & Sherry talk a good deal about finding balance, not negating one experience or energy for another, rather finding ways for synthesis, cooperation and resolution. This is true even when things feel shitty. The practices they offer are intended to be used as tools to meet adversity, not avoid it (this is a toxic-positivity-free zone). While the practices are not prescriptive, (if you use them, you will heal XYZ), with consistency, they may help develop new neural pathways, allowing for a sense of calm to replace agitation. This is not typically an immediate gratification proposition, changes may be subtle and crescendo over time. Theresa refers to a study using reward & punishment and how those who began with abundance & were faced with things being taken away, learned better than the group who had to earn each item from the start.

Sherry points out that we can be more than one thing at any given time. People do reflect our nature back to us (for better, worse and everything in between), revealing possible landmarks for inspiration, healing & growth. Takeaways: Negativity Bias - Why is it easier to believe the bad stuff? Gifts of trials – timing of recognition and action (what & when to say and do) – importance of practices to help us move through trials as they arise, without avoiding them.

You probably hate when people don't respond to your emails, right? Well, you may be part of the problem. Listen as I explain how this one little mistake in the subject line makes it easy for others to dismiss your emails and how to fix it. http://www.mediapost.com/publications/article/291896/subject-line-typos-decrease-email-engagementrates.html Why is it that bad things feel bad more than good things feel better? Someone can say 9 wonderful things about you and one negative thing – and you dwell on the one negative thing? It seems that it's just the way we are wired says John Tierney who has researched and written a book about this called The Power of Bad: How The Negativity Effect Rules Us and How We Can Rule It (https://amzn.to/30Gn3EQ). The result of this is that we will do more to avoid a bad thing than to seek a good thing and this has all sorts of implications in your life. Listen as John explains how the negativity effect plays such an important role in many parts of your life Think of all the liquids in your life. You drink several, one is running through your veins, your car runs on them – liquids are everywhere and they are vital to our survival. But what makes a liquid a liquid? Scientist Mark Miodownik, author of the book Liquid Rules: The Delightful and Dangerous Substances that Flow Through Our Lives (https://amzn.to/2RMwSyL) joins me to discuss the fascinating world of liquids. For one thing, liquids are hard to define yet one liquid (water) covers 70% of the earth's surface. And as necessary as they are for us, there is actually very little liquid in the universe.
