Successful solutions require a holistic approach considering local conditions, transportation, and community needs.Links relevant to the conversationKevin's Wikipedia entry:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_KennonEconomics Explored episode w/ Natalie Rayment, YIMBY QLD on the Missing Middle in housing:https://economics-explained.simplecast.com/episodes/missing-middle-housing-other-urban-planning-issuesLumo Coffee promotion10% of Lumo Coffee's Seriously Healthy Organic Coffee.Website: https://www.lumocoffee.com/10EXPLOREDPromo code: 10EXPLORED Full transcripts are available a few days after the episode is first published at www.economicsexplored.com.

They also discuss the value of psychological research and the relationship between philosophy and the sciences. The discussion covered: Panelists' general take on the book; The history of arguments for and against free will; How mental health may depend on a belief in one's agency; The book's distinction between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation; The book's vague conceptualization of the self; Why progress in psychology is messy.

In this episode:Skeletal muscles are made up of fast twitch and slow twitch fibers each of which has differing properties. The amount of each fiber in muscle varies from person to person and while it is possible to determine this makeup, it is not so easy. The architecture of muscle in each individual is important in determining how a person can perform in different types of sports and also, how each will respond to training. Should people try to determine what their muscle typology is and adapt their training to it? We discuss in the Medical Mailbag. Kennon Heard is an emergency physician and endurance athlete who collapsed in cardiac arrest after a family fun run in May. He discusses his experience and how he is moving forward as well as how the rest of us should think about this experience in context of our own endurance pursuits as we age.Segments:[10:30]- Medical Mailbag: Muscle typology and training[35:14]- Interview: Kennon HeardLinksLearn CPR

It's become fashionable to argue that free will is a fiction: that we humans are in the thrall of animal urges and unconscious biases and only think that we are choosing freely. In Freely Determined, research psychologist Kennon Sheldon argues that this perception is not only wrong but also dangerous. Shermer and Sheldon discuss: definitions of free will, determinism, compatibilism, libertarian free will • dualism • reductionism, materialism, predetermination, and epiphenomenalism • Christian List's three capacities for free will • AI, Star Trek's Data, sentience and consciousness, ChatGPT, GPT-4 • how what people believe about free will and determinism influences their behaviors • the case for hard determinism • brain injuries, tumors, addictions, and other “determiners” of behavior • emergence • symbolic self • System 1 vs. System 2 thinking •  Experiencing Self vs. Remembered Self •  subjective well-being and happiness. Kennon M. Sheldon is professor of psychology at the University of Missouri. He is one of the founding researchers of positive psychology, a fellow of the American Psychological Association, and a recipient of the Templeton Foundation Positive Psychology Prize. He lives in Columbia, Missouri. He is the author of numerous scientific papers and scholarly books, including Stability of Happiness: Theories and Evidence on Whether Happiness Can Change; Designing the Future of Positive Psychology: Taking Stock and Moving Forward; Current Directions in Psychological Science; and Self-Determination Theory in the Clinic. His new book integrates all this research into a popular trade book Freely Determined: What the New Psychology of the Self Teaches Us About How to Live.
