Becky Ripley and Sophie Ward take a cold hard look at the psychology behind each of the seven deadly sins, in the order established by Pope Gregory the Great: pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, and lazy old sloth. Why have we evolved these ugly emotions? What's going on in the brain and the body when we feel them? And how best can we live alongside them - in ourselves and with others?Lust is today's hot topic. It's crucial to the continuation of our species, but it's also a form of neurochemical madness that can lead us astray. We all have wildly different brains, bodies, and cultural references, so everyone's relationship to lust is highly personal. Is it true that men want it more than women? When was the "lustiest" time in history? And, back in today's world, how can we navigate our drives alongside cultural expectations and the issue of consent? And how can we feel desire without shame? To guide us through this mess is evolutionary anthropologist Dr Anna Machin from the Department of Experimental Psychology at the University of Oxford, sexologist with a specialty in men's health and sexual function, Dr Anand Patel, and sex historian Dr Kate Lister, lecturer at Leeds Trinity University and author of 'A Curious History of Sex'.Producer: Becky Ripley

What's going on in the brain and the body when we feel them? And how best can we live alongside them - in ourselves and with others?Pride - also known as the "original sin" - is now a bit of a double-edged word. The good side is motivating and self-affirming: to be proud of your work, your kids, or your identity. But then there's the ugly side of pride: thinking you're better than others. Arrogance, narcissism, an inflated sense of superiority. How can we have one without the other? Confidence without arrogance? Self-worth without self-aggrandisement?

Why have we evolved these ugly emotions? What's going on in the brain and the body when we feel them? And how best can we live alongside them - in ourselves and with others?Greed is in the spotlight today. And we're not talking food. (That's gluttony, we come to that later in the series.) We're talking greed for money, for land, for material things – and ultimately for control, status, dominance, power. The kind of greed that separates the "haves" from the "have nots". On one hand, greed is a great motivator, driving us all forward in our pursuit to get more of whatever it is we want. But at its ugliest, greed can come at a huge cost to other people, and to the planet. When does self-interested behaviour become selfish? And can we be greedy for the good? To guide us through this mess is evolutionary anthropologist Dr Anna Machin from the Department of Experimental Psychology at the University of Oxford, psychologist and social scientist Professor Paul Piff from the Department of Psychological Science at the University of California, Executive Director of the New Economy Organisers Network, Ayeisha Thomas-Smith, and a few wise words from Sir David Attenborough.Producer: Becky Ripley

Sophie Ward Koren has been writing since she was old enough to hold a pen, and has published two books with a third on the way. She also has a busy blog and Instagram account chronicling her essays, poetry and stories about raising children in Ojai. Her work has been published in Vogue, Harpers Bazaar, V Magazine and others. Born and raised in Perth in Western Australia, the oldest of four children, she went on to a successful career in modeling (her sister Gemma Ward is a well-known model as well) before meeting fellow Aussie Isaac Koren (the accomplished vocalist with The Kin and the Koren Brothers), having a son and moving to Ojai. Now they have a newborn and Sophie uses her writing to share her struggles, triumphs and helpful life lessons along the way. We talked about Perth's exotic wildlife (quokka anyone?), creative community, cooking, international fashion modeling, finding a purpose through dark clouds of doubt and fear, Ojai's exceptionalism and much more. We did not talk about Shark Week, Australian Rules Football or Genghis Khan.

It's here: https://linktr.ee/philosophyforourtimesIn this engrossing debate, we examine the societal shift towards solo living and ask critical questions about its impacts. Has our pursuit of independence led to a higher incidence of depression? Have we sidelined the significance of community, and in turn, our inherent need for interconnectedness?We navigate the merits and potential pitfalls of intergenerational living and the rise of co-living spaces as modern answers to societal disconnection. However, the risk of oppressive and stifling hierarchies in these close-knit communities is not overlooked.Join us as we unravel the complexities of independence versus community and reconsider the societal norms that we've come to accept.Explore more thought-provoking debates, talks, articles, and podcasts at IAI.tv: https://iai.tv/podcast-offers?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=shownotes&utm_campaign=being-ourselves-and-being-with-othersSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This film had MASSIVE pedigree behind the camera, a veritable who's who of films to come, but was a flop in the end.  So we discuss the use of puppets, the first ever CGI character, the love interest , surnames backwards and some awesome sword fighting.Is this a classic kids movie?

When student journalist and OCD sufferer Sophie Ward got in touch and asked if I would contribute to a piece she was writing about OCD and journalism, I fully intended to contribute. That was the plan. But my own OCD has been especially fevered this last week. I committed the cardinal sin of journalism - I missed the deadline.Sophie is nice (and forgiving, thankfully) and certainly very talented - you'll be hearing more from her, I have no doubt about that. And so I thought, 'why not get her on the podcast?' What you'll find on this bonus episode of The OCD Chronicles is a candid conversation that can loosely be summerized as 'trying to make sense of OCD'. But it's really just two sufferers, at different points in their respective journeys, chatting about the disorder. Join us! If you enjoy this episode, please do Rate, Review and Subscribe.

Wow, what a breath-taking awareness month we have had. I thought it was important to celebrate our success over the month and just run through everything. We are always so quick to move on to the next projects and I am very guilty of this. We should give ourselves time to celebrate our successes and how far we have come. First of all, thank you so much for supporting and being a MASSIVE part of this awareness month with me. It means the world to have your support and to see you enjoying the podcast so much. I couldn't have done it without my amazing guests and I am so grateful to them. Truly. Thank you. We have truly left our mark this month, lighting up landmarks, media coverage and more and more people WANTING to educate themselves which is amazing. I have had a few rough days with my health and when that happens, often inspiration and words flood to my head as I try to cope with the symptoms going on. So I wrote this poem and wanted to kick start this podcast by reading it out to you. I think it is important to share this work to prove that we can always make good out of the bad and that we should use our talents and skills in a creative, positive way.

New episode! I can't tell you how strange it was not having a guest but I put a question out onto Instagram what would you like me to do my podcast on? So many came back to me wanting to know how I have used my swimming mindset to deal with my Lyme Disease battle. So, here we are. I get a bit emotional in parts, as it is a tough journey when it comes to Lyme Disease but also often talking about my past brings back lots of red flags. We see certain traits as massive positives and often they are but when they go to the extreme they can have a negative affect. My swimming days are upsetting and raw to me, in lots of different ways. Often ways I don't realise. In recent years I have run away from all emotions linked to swimming but often forget to give my time in the pool credit for the strong person I have grown into today. I know hand on my heart if I hadn't of been an athlete back in the day I probably would have allowed my Lyme to make me bedridden and defeat me. My discipline, drive and ambition has made me determined to keep 'living' and fighting. I talk about the importance of routine, setting goals, the drive never to give up and pain thresholds. This episode was harder for me than I thought it would have been, so I am so sorry for the emotional break down mid-way. I am only human though and this podcast wouldn't be 'real' if I wasn't open and honest with you all. I hope you enjoy, I hope you feel inspired and find comfort in my journey.
