Podcast appearances and mentions of Robert Burton

An episode all about cognitive dissonance. Ever feel like there are two yous in the same head? The one that cares about the planet, and the one that doesn't act like it does? And that having two yous makes at least one of your yous freak out? You (and you) are not alone. Welcome to cognitive dissonance. As Walt Whitman wrote: you contain multitudes. It's a feature, not a bug, of being alive. Humans, it turns out, are very good at thinking conflicting things at the same time.  This helps us get through the day, but means we're as likely to run away from scary facts we don't like - eg, the state of planet Earth - as to take meaningful action. It's as bad for our politics as it is for getting our heads around climate change. What's to be done? In this episode, Dave chats all things cognitive dissonance and more with the brilliant Sarah Stein Lubrano. Sarah's an author, podcaster and academic whose work is at the intersection of psychology, politics, and cognitive science. Her new book, Don't Talk About Politics: How to change 21st century minds, is out in mid-May. Let me know your thoughts on the show - hello@yourbrainonclimate.com. Please rate, review and subscribe, and share the show on socials. Please consider chucking this humble indie podcaster a few quid at www.patreon.com/yourbrainonclimate. Owl noises = references: 23:52 - Joseph Henrich coined the term WEIRD & wrote a book about it. 32:30 - Excellent article on Kristin Laurin's work studying bans. 42:44 - Deep organising, via the legend that was Jane McAlevey. 49:29 - Google Deepmind founder Mustafa Suleyman's terrifying book, the Coming Wave. 52:35 - critical theory and social pathology.Clips in this episode are from the (er) 1984 film of 1984, starring Robert Burton and John Hurt. The show is hosted and produced by me, Dave Powell, who you can find @powellds on Bluesky and X/Twitter, although I don't use the latter any more.

These two exemplify "steadfastness" in more ways than I can say. Pastor Robert and Cristi are not strangers of overcoming obstacles. They've remained faithful in the midst of opposition, keeping their "Yes" fully intact to the Lord. Which has ultimately led to the birth of, "YES Lord" Church. They remind us that steadfastness and perseverance isn't just for us, it's for those around us - those watching and who will ultimately be impacted by our willingness to stick it out when it gets hard.

In this shortcast edition of the Podcast for Social Research, recorded live at BISR Central, BISR's Rebecca Ariel Porte, Paige Sweet, and special guest Sonia Werner take an in-depth look back at Jamie Babbit's 1999 queer cult classic But I'm a Cheerleader—a campy send-up of gay conversion therapy and compulsory heterosexuality. What are the “roots” of sexual desire? Rebecca, Paige, and Sonia parse the film's playful mockery of the very notion—spoiler alert!—that sexuality (of any stripe) has anything so neatly grounded about it. Topics touched on include: sexuality's intersubjective structure, plastic flowers and monochrome palettes, Robert Burton's Anatomy of Melancholy, comedy as coping mechanism, femme queerness, butch visibility, camp as a celebration of surfaces, Foucault, discipline, straight pedagogy, and more!  You can download the episode by right-clicking here and selecting “save as.” Or, look us up on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.

In this episode of High Theory, Laura Stokes talks about melancholy. One of the four humors in ancient humoral medicine, melancholy, or black bile, is a fluid substance and spiritual principle that was thought to move within the human body. A proper quantity of black bile allows one to be calm and contemplative, thoughtful and withdrawn. A superabundance produces sadness, indigestion, and a host of other evils. Research is a melancholy practice; scholars are prone to melancholic dispositions. Throughout the episode Laura refers to Robert Burton's Anatomy of Melancholy, an early modern text that describes the sources, symptoms, and treatments for a surplus of melancholy, in a rather meandering way, with an entire separate disquisition on love melancholy. It was published in multiple versions over Burton's lifetime – people usually cite the 1638 edition. Laura Stokes is an associate professor of history at Stanford University where they study Early Modern Europe. Their first book Demons of Urban Reform: Early European Witch Trials and Criminal Justice, 1430-1530 (Palgrave Macmillan, 2011) examines the origins of witchcraft prosecution in fifteenth-century Europe against the backdrop of a general rise in the prosecution of crime and other measures of social control. They are currently working on a microhistory of a murder conspiracy within the Basel butchers' guild at the turn of the sixteenth century, which is really about Early Modern economic cultures. And they run pretty amazing summer reading groups. Image: © 2022 Saronik Bosu Learn more about your ad choices.

Presenter Tom Service visits the Pit Theatre at the Barbican to learn more about a new theatrical meditation on the bittersweet consolations of sorrow. He speaks to countertenor Iestyn Davies about the melancholy of John Dowland's music and its power to process grief, while the director Netia Jones tells Tom how she's weaved together creative visuals with philosophical musings of Robert Burton's 17th-century treatise The Anatomy of Melancholy as well as those of Freud and other contemporary experts of the human condition. As the BBC celebrates its centenary, Music Matters is joined by composers Matthew Herbert and Anna Meredith, and Artistic Associate of the Southbank Gillian Moore, to discuss the corporation's role as a commissioner of contemporary repertoire during the past 100 years. Tom catches-up with composer Tom Floyd, singer Sophie Goldrick, and Professor Marion Thain during rehearsals of a new opera, Veritable Michael, which charts the creative life and love affair of two women who operated together under the pseudonym Michael Field – a 19th century fictional author whose work was celebrated by the likes of Oscar Wilde and Robert Browning. And Tom takes a trip to the Victoria and Albert Museum where he'd joined by Harriet Reed, the co-curator of Re:Imagining Musicals – a new display of glittering costumes and musical memorabilia – to explore the craftmanship, creative renewal, and evolutionary impetus behind some of the most iconic musicals of the past seven decades.

On today's show we discuss with George Eliason the latest in the Ukraine/Russia conflict, Zelensky's threats on Crimea and the death of Darya Dugin. We also chat with Pastor Paul Robert Burton about we are in a spiritual war “Australian federal and state condoned child trafficking and child abuse”. GUEST OVERVIEW: George Eliason is an American journalist who lives and works in Donbass, Ukraine. George is a host on TNT Radio. In 2014, George broke many of the stories there starting with Maidan and continuing to the build-up toward civil war. He wrote the first stories about the war to be published in the west, often scooping Russian publication.

Happy Wednesday! On today's show, Toby vents about the hectic drop-off he experienced when dropping off his daughter at the airport yesterday. Then we talk to Robert Burton from 7News about a video of him and his wife going viral. And then discuss a new work trend that is popping up everywhere...quiet quitting. All this and more on today's show.

Hey, Roar Nation! I'm happy to be back with you for another episode! We are focusing on the revelation of who we are in Christ and who we are called to be in this world. This concept will change your life! Are you living as an orphan in this world or as a true Son of the King? Join us for this encouraging conversation with today's guest. Robert Burton is the pastor of YES LORD Amarillo. He works with drug addicts and the homeless, people he calls “the least, the last, and the lost,” believing God has called him to this work to share the Gospel and the love of Jesus. He's been married to his high school sweetheart for almost 30 years, and they have two daughters. His wife joins him in kingdom work, passionately teaching people about their true identity in the Lord. Robert looks for opportunities every day to tell people about their identity in Christ and break their “orphan spirit” with the Good News.  Robert tells the story of his personal orphan spirit, wrecked home life, total rejection of Jesus, and early alcohol addiction. A radical encounter with Jesus in 1997 in his early twenties turned his life around, changed his habits, cleaned up his life, and plunged him into God's Word. Becoming a father to his first daughter gave him the truest picture of God's love as a Father and propelled him forward into youth ministry, working with a rough and rowdy group of boys who needed to know God's love. Every step in Robert's journey has confirmed his identity in Christ as a son and a vessel to bring His love to others, even though he has had ups and downs as a pastor. Like all of us, he has been through ministry missteps and failures that left him broken, angry, bitter, and wounded. He shares his lessons learned about trusting God when you are crushed and broken, along with what it means to have compassion and choose forgiveness.  At the core of Robert's message and ministry is the change that Jesus brings to broken and wasted lives. He pursues the unlovable with the message of God's love as a faithful, compassionate Father. Listen in to hear the story of God's amazing work in Robert's life and ministry!

To mark Mental Health Awareness Week, Not Just the Tudors casts a 21st century eye over "one of the most perplexing, elusive, attractive, and afflicting diseases of the Renaissance" - melancholy - and how it was addressed in "largest, strangest and most unwieldy self-help book ever written": Robert Burton's The Anatomy of Melancholy of 1621. So what did people in the 17th century think were the causes, symptoms and cures for melancholy? In this episode, Professor Suzannah Lipscomb talks to Dr Mary Ann Lund - author of A User's Guide to Melancholy, an accessible guide to Burton's work that reveals the Stuart era's approach to mental health.

In this episode, we sit down with neurologist Robert Burton, author of On Being Certain, a book that fundamentally changed the way I think about what a belief actually is. That's because the book posits conclusions are not conscious choices, and certainty is not even a thought process. Certainty and similar states of “knowing,” as he puts it, are "sensations that feel like thoughts, but arise out of involuntary brain mechanisms that function independently of reason."

Una perenne tensione conoscitiva sul mondo che tuttavia sempre si ostina a negarsi; se ne colgono dei brani, se ne sentono degli odori, ma mai se ne afferra il noumeno. Questa è la condizione umana, che un autore come Julian Schnabel sembra recepire e fare sua in assoluto. La sua è una ricerca di evidente stampo filosofico, e lo stesso oscillare tra pittura e cinema lo verifica.

In the spirit of Plato's Symposium, the Slightly Foxed team enter into lively dialogue with two distinguished magazine editors, Tom Hodgkinson of the Idler and Harry Mount of the Oldie, and learn lessons from notable loafers in literature. We begin with Doctor Johnson, an icon of indolence who wrote an essay called ‘The Idler' and liked time to ponder; this lazy lexicographer claimed his dictionary would take three years to write when in fact it would take nine . . . The wisdom-loving philosophers of Ancient Greece made a case for carving out leisure time, while the anchorite Julian of Norwich favoured a life of seclusion in which ‘all shall be well'. At the age of thirty-eight Michel de Montaigne retired to a grand book-filled chateau to test out ideas in essays, while George Orwell wrote book reviews in hungover misery. Izaak Walton found contemplation in The Compleat Angler and Jerome K. Jerome found humour in Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow, while the autodidactic Mitford sisters sought wild freedom. We enjoy a leisurely spell with loungers in fiction, visiting Lady Bertram and her pug in Mansfield Park, taking to Lady Diana Cooper's bed in A Handful of Dust, retreating to Aunt Ada Doom's room in Cold Comfort Farm, settling into the quiet comfort of Mycroft Holmes's Diogenes Club and meeting Thomas Love Peacock's Honourable Mr Listless along the way. And, to finish, there are the usual wide-ranging reading recommendations for when you have an idle moment.

Motivatore: Robert BurtonMotivazione: Cerca e trova il meglio per te

Melankoli är en form av djup depression, som länge förknippades med tänkande och kreativitet. Poeten Ellen Nordmark slår ett slag för melankolin och en musikalisk liten insekt. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Hör du syrsornas sång? Den minner om doften av hur solvarmt gräs svalnar i sommarkvällen; hur middagsbordet aldrig dukas av; hur samtalen bara fortsätter. Förda till samma toner som för 2400 år sedan ackompanjerade Sokrates och Faidros. Fast egentligen har det aldrig varit syrsor som spelar, utan svenska vårtbitare och grekiska cikador. Inte konstigt att uttrycket sätta griller i huvudet kommer från grekiskans gryllos som betyder gräshoppa. Och därför grubblar vi, för att sådan är livsgången: svårdefinierad som syrssången. Det berättades förklarar Sokrates att cikadorna en gång i tiden hörde till det människosläkte som fanns innan muserna blev till. När så muserna kom med sång och filosofi, blev några av dessa människor så utom sig av förtjusning att de glömde mat och dryck och dog utan att själva märka det. Berättelsen om hur människor uppslukas av konsten så till den grad att de förvandlas till insekter, är på sitt säregna vis vacker. Samtidigt ligger det något lika melankoliskt över den som över sången i sommarkvällen: en kontinuitet präglad av entonighet, kombinerad med självutplånande förgänglighet. Kanske är det ingen tillfällighet att den mörka, kalla jorden är cikadornas habitat. Inom humoralpatologin, en antik lära där sjukdom anses bero på en obalans mellan kroppsvätskorna, kopplas jorden till svart galla och därigenom till melankoli. Tankarna var tongivande långt in på 1800-talet och renässansförfattaren Robert Burton hänvisar direkt till Sokrates berättelse, när han i mastodontverket Melankolins Anatomi resonerar kring varför de bildningstörstande oftare tycks hemfalla åt melankoli än sina medmänniskor. Till detta finner han två grundorsaker: Det ena är att de lever ett stillasittande, ensamt liv, för sig själva och Muserna skriver han. Det andra är kontemplationen i sig, den torkar ut hjärnan och släcker all naturlig glöd. Från antiken hämtar Burton också sin melankoliske arketyp: Aristoteles som sägs offra sin hälsa för tänkandet. Men som samtidigt kanske var den förste att koppla samman melankoli och geni. Till denna tveeggade tradition sällar sig även modernare tänkare. Exempelvis fastställer filosofen och litteraturvetaren Walter Benjamin att han kom till världen i Saturnus tecken Saturnus som är den svarta gallans och melankolins planet. Han förklarar vidare i avhandlingen Ursprung des deutschen Trauerspiels att melankolin är den mest genuint sinnliga av de kontemplativa impulserna, och det har alltid varit känt att dess kraft lika gärna kan återfinnas i den galne hundens blick som hos geniet.  Burtons omvärld är med hans egna ord jäktad och ärelysten, författarna är förhäxade efter begär och berömmelse defekter som också vår tid anklagas för. Renässansen kan betecknas som övergången mellan en medeltida kollektivism med kristna förtecken till modern individualism. Livet går från att vara en färdsträcka mot himmelriket, till att bli något som ska självförverkligas. Hanna Arendt - som för övrigt gör just Benjamins liv till en karaktäristisk melankoli när hon liknar det vid ett nät av meriter, talanger, klumpighet och stor otur beskriver i sin essä Arbete, tillverkning, handling omställningen i samhällets värdegrund med begreppen Vita Contemplativa, det kontemplerande livet, och Vita Activa, det aktiva livet. I och med moderniteten nedvärderas kontemplationen och handling blir viktigare än tanke. Samtidens Vita Activa-människa klagar visserligen på att lärare och vårdpersonal inte hinner med sina primära arbetsuppgifter i och med det ökade kravet på dokumentation, och att det är för mycket snack och för lite verkstad i politiken. Men i slutänden är målet med allt detta snack snarare mätbar prestation än verkligt begrundande. Tidsandan sammanfattas av Donald Trumps versalröst: Jag tycker inte om att analysera mig själv, eftersom jag kanske inte kommer tycka om vad jag får syn på. Så dränks syrsornas sång. Att likt Sokrates förlora sig i tankar och fastna i farstun på väg till nästa möte, eller gästabud, accepteras inte. Ändå är det hans reflektioner som väcker mest insikt och förundran när han väl kommer fram. Melankolin förråder världen till förmån för kunskapen, fastslår Benjamin. Den blir en anomali, ett hot mot tidsandan, och har därför allt sedan Burtons dagar definierats som diverse sjukdomstillstånd. En inkräktare på det riktiga, friska jaget som ska avlägsnas. Burton förespråkar åderlåtning och avhållsamhet från svårsmält viltkött. Tvåtusentalssvensken vänder sig till självhjälpsböcker, raw food och high intensity interval training för att bli sitt bästa jag. Psykisk ohälsa kan medföra stort lidande och förödande konsekvenser, det bör inte romantiseras. Men kanske kan det vara värt att ställa sig frågan om det verkligen finns ett riktigt jag helt skiljt från det sjuka, och om det som anses sjukt enbart är av ondo. Vår upplevelse av världen sker trots allt ofrånkomligen genom kroppens lins. Ändå klarar vi inte av att tala om dess melankoliska svaghet som en naturlig del av livet. Att se in i sjukdomens rätta ansikte kräver, som Virginia Woolf uttryckt det, modet hos en lejontämjare, en robust filosofi och ett förnuft djupt rotat i jorden. Djupt rotat i den melankoliska jorden finner vi Vita Contemplativa, vars avsaknad av resultatinriktning och inneboende svaghet gör det till ett uppror: det öppnar för en tolerantare världsbild, där varje enskildhet också är helhet och nödvändighet. Det enda nöje en melankoliker tillåter sig är allegorin förklarar Benjamin. Det allegoriska synsättet utvidgar tingens mening och bygger nya helheter av dem. Sokrates tycks kanske svamla om garvare och packåsnor, andra gånger om stjärnor, bergarter och vaser: det är inte förrän åhörarna tittar in i resonemangen som det avslöjas att otaliga, fängslande bilder ryms därinne. Den melankoliska allegorin bygger mening också av livlösa ting på en grund av meningslöshet, och står därmed i direkt korrelation till död och förfall. Livets mening skapas i förhållande till döden, och dödens ofrånkomlighet gör melankolin till en grundsten i världsordningen, inte en parasit på den. Snarare då en cikada, lika odödlig som tingen, som krälande och småäcklig spelar förtrollande musik. I Vita Contemplativas melankoliska farstu lurar alltid handlingsförlamningen och meningslösheten. Jag har en talang för misslyckanden suckar Benjamin inför alla sina oavslutade projekt. Liksom Sokrates måste kontemplationen våga sig in på festen. Men förgäves om inte gästerna vill höra på: för dialog krävs som bekant två. Det är kanske dags för Vita Activa att sänka rösten, se in i lejonansiktet och acceptera att den livssång vi lever i också är syrsornas melodi. När cikadorna blev cikador fick de, berättar Sokrates, en gåva av gudarna: de behöver varken mat eller dryck. Ser de oss fastslår han däremot inbegripna i samtal och oberörda av deras sirensång, då kanske de med glädje skänker oss den. Troligen blir vi aldrig behovslösa gudar, men kanske kan vi acceptera människans mångfacetterade, självmotsägande natur och bli melankoliska aktivister i sommarkvällen.

In this episode, we sit down with neurologist Robert Burton, author of On Being Certain, a book that fundamentally changed the way I think about what a belief actually is. That’s because the book posits that conclusions are not conscious choices and certainty is not even a thought process. Certainty and similar states of “knowing” as he puts it, are "sensations that feel like thoughts, but arise out of involuntary brain mechanisms that function independently of reason."

400 years ago Robert Burton produced his labyrinthine masterpiece, The Anatomy of Melancholy – a work which was celebrated in the Renaissance for its understanding of the huge variety of causes, symptoms and cures of mental distress. In A User’s Guide To Melancholy the academic Mary Ann Lund looks back to this precursor of the self-help book. She tells Amol Rajan that we have much to learn from those who struggled with melancholy in the past. In Heavy Light, the writer Horatio Clare shares how his mind began to unwind; his growing mania followed by psychosis and his treatment in a psychiatric hospital. But he also details the journey of recovery and healing, and he investigates how society treats acute crises of mental health. The psychiatrist Ahmed Hankir understands only too well what it’s like to feel depressed and hopeless – he suffered from mental health difficulties during his studies. He has used his own experiences to produce The Wounded Healer which seeks to reduce stigma around mental health, blending psychiatry and the performing arts. Producer: Katy Hickman

Hey! We basically made it through 2020!

What is our greater purpose here on Earth? Are you hungry for spiritual nourishment?Many of us in today's modern society are hungry for spiritual nourishment. We may be brought up to believe that our value is based on how much we can produce for the least amount of money, leaving us to put our basic human needs of relationships, physical and mental health, and self actualization to the side. This pulls us further and further away from our true nature, leaving us wondering, what is the meaning of all this? Why does life feel so meaningless?In this episode, we talk with Kit Winter, attorney with over twenty years experience serving the needs of Internet, new media, and technology companies. He then went back to school to pursue a career in Marriage and Family Therapy, where he met Maayan in graduate school.

On today’s episode, we’ve got a heady answering machine question, an interview with Kim “Kimchi” Giannone, zine reviews, and a feature on Montana photographer (and patron saint of All Through a Lens) Evelyn Cameron.After a bit of chit chat (Vania’s waves have been bad and Eric’s got two zines coming out), we get right to the answering machine question:Do you have a camera that you don’t shoot with anymore, but that you just can’t part with?The answers ran from the practical to the literal tear-jerking. Thank you to everyone who called in.Let’s Call Kim!Our interview this week is with Kim Giannone. Kim has been shooting film since forever, but find herself sliding towards digital. We talk about Montana, the old days, more Montana, current and future projects, and about maybe quitting photography altogether (no, thank you).You can find Kim’s work on Instagram – @kgphotoface.She is also trying to raise the money to buy a mercantile in Montana so she can run a general store as well as her photo studio. She’s selling her prints to fund it here.And is some of Kim’s work: Evelyn CameronWe have been wanting to tell the story of Montana photographer Evelyn Cameron since before we even had a podcast.The story of an unknown photographer who died leaving her incredibly important work to basically disappear into obscurity only to be re-discovered decades later might sound a little familiar, but we’re betting you’ve not heard this one before.She was a (mostly) self-taught large format photographer from the late 1800s/early 1900s. After leaving her wealthy upbringing and moving to Montana with her new (and controversial) husband, she took to photography to make ends meet.Nearly forgotten, her work was rediscovered in the 1970s. We dig into her life, her career, and how best to view her photos.We also talk about a project we’d like to do, but pulling it off might prove a bit difficult.Here are a few of Evelyn Cameron’s photos: Zine ReviewsWe also reviewed two zines:Car Distancing by Ben Yount (@benyountdds)andFilm & Foreigner Vol. 2 by Robert Burton (@elgatomagnifico)—Be sure to check out our Dev Party episodes.

Dr. Zakary Tormala is a professor of behavioral science and marketing at Stanford University’s business school. He studies how people can become certain of an opinion and what that means for their willingness to share their views. We talk about what certainty is, how it affects people's choices and resistance to change, and how the research about certainty can inform best practices in persuasion.Some of the things that come up in this episode:Robert Burton's article, "The Certainty Epidemic" (also see his book, On Being Certain)The difference between "clarity" and "correctness" (Petrocelli, Tormala, & Rucker, 2007)The relationship between certainty and advocacy (Cheatham & Tormala, 2015; 2017)How successfully resisting persuasion can boost certainty (Tormala & Petty, 2002)How apparent social consensus increases certainty (Clarkson, Tormala, Rucker, & Dugan, 2013)Why uncertainty can get people to pay attention (Karmarkar & Tormala, 2010)For an overview of some of the ideas in this episode, check out Dr. Tormala's brief article in Current Opinion in Psychology: "The role of certainty (and uncertainty) in attitudes and persuasion" or his article in Harvard Business Review: "How certainty transforms persuasion."For a transcript of this show, visit the episode's webpage: http://opinionsciencepodcast.com/episode/certainty-with-zakary-tormalaLearn more about Opinion Science at http://opinionsciencepodcast.com/ and follow @OpinionSciPod on Twitter.

In this special episode of Brain Science host Dr Ginger Campbell reads an excerpt from her bestseller "Are You Sure? The Unconscious Origin of Certainty." While it might seem ironic to talk about certainty during these extremely uncertain times, understanding how our brain generates the feeling of knowing or certainty is actually more relevant than ever. Are You Sure? The Unconscious Origins of Certainty is based on several early episodes of Brain Science and highlights the work of retired neurologist Dr. Robert Burton. Both physicians are fascinated by the surprising discovery that most of what our brain does is outside conscious awareness. They explore the evidence behind this claim as well as its implications. Ultimately they agree that this discovery could encourage us all to have more compassion and tolerance for both ourselves and others.   Links and References: Are You Sure?

I was young, I was happy, and someone cared enough about me in this world to take my picture.”Zine ReviewWe’ve got one zine to review this week. It’s Drunken Hong Kong by Robert Burton. It’s a 48 page, color/B&W, perfect bound beauty of a zine.“Enjoy a vision of Hong Kong just one year ago: before the protests over the extradition bill, before the pandemic, before the end of ‘one country, two systems’ that’s threatening to happen right now–29 years ahead of schedule.”It is, in a word, frenetic.

Many businesses have a crisis on their hands. It's not the threat of a devastating event that should have them worried. It's the lack of planning for when it does.  In this episode of the podcast, I’m speaking with Robert Burton.

If you are responsible for ensuring your organization is prepared for any crisis or significant event, then this episode is a must-listen. Rob offers critical guidance for preparing a response to the threats that can crop up in your industry.

From table-top exercises to functional exercises, and full-scale exercises that require multiple teams to communicate during a simulated exercise, find out the different ways Rob helps organizations feel confident in their crisis response abilities [12:11] Planning for the unknown unknowns. The plans that Rob helps put into place are like a set of tools to get the team organized in the case of an event.

Burton graduated from Yale University and the University of California at San Francisco medical school, where he also completed his neurology residency. At age thirty-three, he was appointed chief of the Division of Neurology at UCSF Medical Center at Mt. Zion, where he subsequently became Associate Chief of the Department of Neurosciences. His books include On Being Certain: Believing You Are Right Even When You're Not, A Skeptic's Guide to the Mind; What Neuroscience Can and Cannot Tell Us About Ourselves, and three critically acclaimed novels. He has also written essays, book reviews and op-ed pieces for the New York Times, Salon.com, Aeon, and Nautilus. In this episode, we focus on some of the main topics of Dr. Burton's books. We talk about the feelings of knowing, certainty, familiarity, clarity of thought, and déjà vu that we have. We also refer to phenomena like moral dumbfounding and post-hoc rationalization. We discuss the problem with our view of how reason and rationality work, and how we are mistaken about how our own thinking works. We also talk about how different people see the world in different ways, our individual differences, and how religiosity is not going away anytime soon. We refer to the placebo effect, and also to how scientists have to be careful about how their own intuitions might affect how they study the human mind. We end up by discussing a possible way to improve the way we think, through a process of cultural evolution. -- Follow Dr. Burton's work: Personal website: http://bit.ly/2KXY88E Articles on Aeon: http://bit.ly/2Z8wEqD Other articles: http://bit.ly/2L2F1tS On Being Certain: Believing You Are Right Even When You're Not: https://amzn.to/2zguWEl A Skeptic's Guide to the Mind: What Neuroscience Can and Cannot Tell Us About Ourselves: https://amzn.to/2L2F6ha -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS: KARIN LIETZCKE, ANN BLANCHETTE, SCIMED, PER HELGE HAAKSTD LARSEN, LAU GUERREIRO, RUI BELEZA, ANTÓNIO CUNHA, CHANTEL GELINAS, JERRY MULLER, FRANCIS FORDE, HANS FREDRIK SUNDE, BRIAN RIVERA, ADRIANO ANDRADE, YEVHEN BODRENKO, SERGIU CODREANU, ADAM BJERRE, ŁUKASZ STAFINIAK, AIRES ALMEIDA, BERNARDO SEIXAS, HERBERT GINTIS, RUTGER VOS, RICARDO VLADIMIRO, BO WINEGARD, JOHN CONNORS, ADAM KESSEL, AND VEGA GIDEY!

Neurologist and author Robert Burton talks about his book, On Being Certain, with EconTalk host Russ Roberts. Burton explores our need for certainty and the challenge of being skeptical about what our brain tells us must be true. Where does what Burton calls "the feeling of knowing" come from? Why can memory lead us astray? Burton claims that our reaction to events emerges from competition among different parts of the brain operating below our level of awareness. The conversation includes a discussion of the experience of transcendence and the different ways humans come to that experience.

What does it mean to be certain? Which comes first: judgement or reason? What is the difference between our differences dividing us or empowering us? And what does any of this have to do with riding an elephant?   This week Nick & Brett explore the concept of certainty, as it exist in everything from our political climate, to our businesses, to our communities. And through the research of neurologist Dr Robert Burton, the insights of professor Jonathan Heidt, the experience of designer Mark Busse, and the unique perspective of writer Dan Harmon, they discover that self awareness, humility, and empathy may hold some of the keys to us gaining control of this wild beast called Certainty.   Plus WTSdigs, a bunch of random clips, and a sound effect or three.

Jim and Mark reflect on the 1959 sci-fi thriller, "Terror in the Midnight Sun," also know as "Invasion of the Animal People," starring Barbara Wilson and Robert Burton. This is the film that greatly affected Mark toward his chosen profession and one that had an impact on Jim as well. The two also wax poetic on going to the drive-in movies. It's all here in this episode of Monster Attack.

What does it mean to be certain? Which comes first: judgement or reason? What is the difference between our differences dividing us or empowering us? And what does any of this have to do with riding an elephant? This week Nick & Brett explore the concept of certainty, as it exist in everything from our political climate, to our businesses, to our communities. And through the research of neuroliogist Dr Robert Burton, the insights of professor Jonathan Heidt, the experience of designer Mark Busse, and the unique perspective of writer Dan Harmon, they discover that self awareness, humility, and empathy may hold some of the keys to us gaining control of this wild beast called Certainty.

In this episode, Bo Bennett speaks with neurologist Dr. Robert Burton about what it means (or doesn't mean) to be "certain." Wars have been fought and people murdered because people are claim certainty about "what they feel is right," whether that be following a god's commands or simply following a passionate and convincing human leader. Dr. Robert Burton graduated from Yale University and the University of California, San Francisco's School of Medicine, where he also completed his neurology residency. At age thirty-three, he was appointed chief of the Division of Neurology at Mt. Zion-UCSF Hospital, where he subsequently became Associate Chief of the Department of Neurosciences. His writings include "On Being Certain: Believing You Are Right Even When You're Not," three critically acclaimed novels and a neuroscience and culture column at Salon.com, "Mind Reader" (2008-2009). He lives in the San Francisco Bay Area. His new book, "A Skeptic's Guide to the Mind; What Neuroscience Can and Cannot Tell Us About Ourselves," is now available.

The neurologist Robert Burton has spent years exploring our shaky reliance on what he calls "involuntary mental sensations": the internal perceptions by which we come to "know" our own minds. He says these inner representations, offered up by the brain itself, are partial at best, delusory at worst. And that's a problem not only for ordinary seekers of self-knowledge but also for an ambitious group of neuroscientists attempting to explain consciousness and the human psyche, while beholden to many of the same, suspect intuitions that bamboozle the rest of us. Bob raises these and other problems in his latest book, "A Skeptic's Guide to the Mind: What Neuroscience Can and Cannot Tell us About Ourselves." We had a long and wide-ranging tête-à-tête on the difficulties that loom when science shifts from studying the brain to mapping the mind, and the deep and dubious assumptions built into categories such as conscious and unconscious, self and other, choice and non-choice.

As a preamble to next week's interview with neurologist and neuroskeptic Robert Burton, I re-aired this earlier conversation with Bob from 2008. In it, we discussed his book "On Being Certain: Believing You're Right Even When You're Wrong," about our brain's often unreliable sense of self-certainty. Bob says our inner sensation of knowing or not knowing something, of familiarity or unfamiliarity – so critical to perception, judgment and decisionmaking – is based on neural mechanisms that can go badly awry and, even when things are working OK, is hardly a dependable arbiter of truth.

Melvyn Bragg and his guests discuss Robert Burton's masterpiece The Anatomy of Melancholy.In 1621 the priest and scholar Robert Burton published a book quite unlike any other. The Anatomy of Melancholy brings together almost two thousand years of scholarship, from Ancient Greek philosophy to seventeenth-century medicine. Melancholy, a condition believed to be caused by an imbalance of the body's four humours, was characterised by despondency, depression and inactivity. Burton himself suffered from it, and resolved to compile an authoritative work of scholarship on the malady, drawing on all relevant sources.Despite its subject matter the Anatomy is an entertaining work, described by Samuel Johnson as the only book 'that ever took him out of bed two hours sooner than he wished to rise.' It also offers a fascinating insight into seventeenth-century medical theory, and influenced many generations of playwrights and poets.With:Julie SandersProfessor of English Literature and Drama at the University of NottinghamMary Ann LundLecturer in English at the University of LeicesterErin SullivanLecturer and Fellow at the Shakespeare Institute at the University of Birmingham.Producer: Thomas Morris.
