Join Dursin and Clay as we break down Episode 6 of Larry's brand-new historical sketch comedy series, Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness: an Almost History of America. From Kyle Mooney's flaky Paul Revere warning colonial barrel-maker Larry about British troops just to hang out with cool guys, to Keegan-Michael Key's Davy Crockett guarding his secret Alamo defecation spot, Susie Essman tossing Larry out of a temperance dinner as Susan B.

“I think our genetic makeup makes us miserable. We evolved to be miserable.” — George Loewenstein Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Yeah, yeah. We've all heard that one before. When Jefferson drafted the Declaration of Independence in 1776, he remixed Locke's “life, liberty and estate,” replacing the idea of property with happiness. As we know from last week's conversation with the historian Joshua Specht, America's age-old love affair with real estate has been perpetually mortgaged. And our guest today, the behavioral economist George Loewenstein, who happens — probably not coincidentally — to be the great-grandson of Sigmund Freud, offers a similar warning about the ideal of happiness. Happiness' antonym is misery. In his new book The Opposite of Happiness, Loewenstein explains that it's misery, and not happiness, which has simultaneously broken humans and built humankind. We evolved to be miserable, the behavioral economist argues, explaining that English has four times as many words for negative emotions as for positive ones. The depths we can sink to are incomparably deeper and more interesting than the heights we can reach, Freud's great-grandson reassures us. Happiness is a Disneyfied mush while misery is infinitely variegated, he tells us, building a twelve-part taxonomy from envy and regret to loneliness and anxiety. The behavioral economist even invents a “Misery Survey” and cites an experiment he conducted with married couples which found that doubling their sexual frequency left them less happy. So much for sex. Loewenstein spent a lifetime escaping Freud and has ended up desexualizing him for modern America. I've always found behavioral economics to be a particularly miserable subject (ideology dressed up as science). But maybe that's the point. Life, liberty and the pursuit of misery. A Loewensteinian redraft of the Declaration, anyone? Five Takeaways • We Evolved to Be Miserable. Loewenstein's starting point contradicts the entire happiness industry: misery is the human constant, and happiness the occasional exception. Not because society ruins us — he takes exception to Rousseau's idea that we are born happy and civilized into unhappiness — but because our genetic makeup makes us so. Every negative emotion evolved to push us toward behavior that served our fitness; that is precisely why they are unavoidable. His evidence is asymmetry. English has, by his count, four times as many words for negative emotions as for positive ones. The depths of misery are incomparably deeper than the heights of joy. And happiness is “a big mush,” while unhappiness is infinitely variegated — twelve specific miseries in the book's second half, each with its own facial expression, its own pattern of brain activity, and its own behavior. Novelists, he says, have always known this; they are better psychologists than the academics, and misery is simply more interesting.• Envy Is Local. Andrew's cheekiest question: does Loewenstein, part of what he calls the second shift of behavioral economics, envy Daniel Kahneman, Amos Tversky and Richard Thaler, the field's Nobel-garlanded founders? He didn't deny it. We don't envy billionaires and trillionaires, he explains; we envy people close to us and just ahead, and those three are the textbook case. Then the move that makes the book humane rather than cynical: meta-emotions. You're not supposed to envy your friends, so when you inevitably do, you feel guilty about feeling envious — misery about misery. Understanding your own negative emotions, he argues, works like understanding another person: you forgive what you understand. And no, this is not a book about selfishness — sympathy, guilt and shame are some of the most social emotions we have. Nor are these first-world problems: the struggling farmer cares about self-esteem, guilt and loneliness as much as anyone.• The Freud Inheritance. Loewenstein spent much of his career trying to escape his great-grandfather — he wouldn't even mention the connection for years — and now finds himself reinventing him: his research on pain, hunger and sex is, he concedes, a study of what Freud would have called the conflict between id and superego. The family history is its own novel. His mother, Sophie Freud, was the daughter of Freud's eldest son; when the family fled the Nazis, the main branch went to London while she and her mother escaped by bicycling through France. Edward Bernays — Freud's nephew and the father of American public relations — paid for her college education when she arrived in the United States penniless. She later wrote Living in the Shadow of the Freud Family, about feeling rejected by the clan. And the glass-half-empty temperament? From both parents, he says, but more from his father. Andrew's framing: a lifetime escaping Freud, only to end up desexualizing him for modern America.• The Missing Motive. On Bentham and quantification, Loewenstein is cautious — psychologists can put numbers on feelings, but moving from an inchoate internal state to a figure is genuinely hard. His real hero is Adam Smith, not the Smith of The Wealth of Nations but of The Theory of Moral Sentiments, his first book and the last he revised, and in Loewenstein's view a psychology book of striking modernity. (Andrew notes the Smith of Susan Neiman's evil book last week is the same one; Loewenstein recommends Dennis Rasmussen's book on Smith and Hume, and Rasmussen was on last week too.) His most provocative claim is about self-esteem: probably the single main motivator of human behavior, and yet almost absent from economics — one book and a handful of papers. Money buys happiness only up to a point. And his own experiment, instructing married couples to double their sexual frequency, found they did — and reported less happiness and less closeness. He doesn't quite believe his own result.• The Happiness Industry. Where the psychology meets the economics. Institutions built on attention — above all the internet companies selling advertising — “don't give a fig about your well-being,” he says, and are amplifying human misery; Meta keeps losing lawsuits because jurors, like everyone else, simply dislike the company. Happiness sells the illusion that the next car, the next pill, the next accomplishment will do it, and advertising plays on a wiring we already have. On therapy he is careful: his friends and family include therapists, the research says therapy works (cognitive behavioral therapy especially), though the cultural focus on mental health may make people more inwardly focused. What strikes him in his students is how casually they mention their therapists, and how anxiety and depression, two separate conditions in his generation, have fused into one. On Trump, his verdict is short: a deeply insecure man driven by feelings of inadequacy. And the sign-off: a Nietzschean moustache, and a Nietzschean book. Andrew's verdict: life, liberty and the pursuit of misery — a Loewensteinian redraft of the Declaration. About the Guest George Loewenstein is the Herbert A. Simon University Professor of Economics and Psychology at Carnegie Mellon University and one of the founding figures of ...

Chicago mayor “Big Bill” Thompson's first year back in office had been a disaster as far as political observers – and anyone with any integrity at all -- were concerned. Unhappiness about his incompetence and the corruption in City Hall was spreading, especially since the city of Chicago was now almost $300 million in debt. Primary elections for state and county offices were set for April, but election violence began in January, 10 weeks before anyone went to the polls. This time came to be known as Chicago's “Pineapple Primary” since “pineapple” was a slang term for a hand grenade. This period became THE most violent political period in the city's history. It was scarred by beatings, kidnappings, bombings, shootings, and murders – and things became worse as the election got closer. When the election arrived, party hacks on both sides began employing strategies perfected through years of Cook County electoral hijinks. Boxes were stuffed with ballots bearing fictional names that fraudulent voters could use. They registered vagrants whose votes had been purchased for a few dollars, assigning them fake names and addresses. Even the dead voted in Chicago.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Deep Resentment Leads To Futility And Unhappiness The Big Book warns us that deep resentment leads only to futility and unhappiness. That does not mean we were never hurt, mistreated, or given legitimate reasons to be angry. It means that carrying those injuries long after they happen can begin damaging us more than the original event. Today we'll talk about what resentment does to our thinking, how easily we can keep feeding the same story, and why recovery asks us to find a way forward instead of allowing anger and bitterness to keep controlling our lives. We may not be able to change what happened—but we can decide how much of today we are still going to give to it. #TheDailyTrudge #Resentment #AlcoholicsAnonymous #BigBook #Recovery #Sobriety #AARecovery #Acceptance #Forgiveness #Freedom
In Season 1 Episode 5, titled "Lincoln," Larry delivers an incredible double-header of historical awkwardness. Dursin and Clay break down the Old West logistics at Tombstone, where Timothy Olyphant's Wyatt Earp, Don Johnson's Doc Holliday, and Marc Menchaca confront Larry over horse parking and reschedule their shootout to 3:55 PM. Then, Bill Hader stars as Abraham Lincoln opposite Kathryn Hahn's severe Mary Todd Lincoln, bickering over dandy outfits, Gettysburg Address impressions, and theater etiquette before Jay Renshaw's John Wilkes Booth crosses paths in the aisle. Plus, Seth Morris deals with mourning crudité and White House squatting as Andrew Johnson.Stream Episode 5 now! See you at the club!
When you look back at the Australian artists who've made their mark internationally, Savage Garden are right up there. Two guys from Brisbane who went Number 1 around the world, cracked the notoriously tough U.S. market and sold nearly 30 million albums with hits like 'I Want You', 'To The Moon And Back', and 'Truly Madly Deeply'. They may have only been together for two albums, but the legacy of their pop breakthrough continues, as does frontman Darren Hayes' incredible story.While he was sailing the highs of global fame, behind the scenes, Darren was dealing with a fractured band relationship, battling depression, and in the closet, unable to be truly himself. As a now proudly out gay man, he continues to sing his stories as a solo artist, but the road hasn't always been smooth sailing. Growing up in Logan, Queensland, the youngest of three in a home shadowed by severe domestic violence, who could have predicted that this sensitive kid who loved to sing would one day stand on the world's biggest stages?Darren's story is extraordinary: 250 rejection letters before anyone would sign Savage Garden, a manager who mortgaged his home to make it happen, and a partnership with Daniel Jones that produced some of the most iconic pop of the '90s before it all came crashing down. There have been plenty of lows too; being told by his own record company to hide who he was, the sudden loss of his mother, and a terrifying accident that shattered his jaw and nearly ended his singing career for good. But Darren Hayes is back, and he's got stories.This episode was captured at Chaplin Studios in Los Angeles, which was the building originally built by Charlie Chaplin, later home to A&M Records, and the exact room where "We Are the World" was recorded (Quincy Jones directing Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Bob Dylan, Cyndi Lauper, and a room full of legends). It's a space steeped in music history, and if you believe the people who work there, a few ghosts as well. It was the perfect place to sit down with Darren and travel through a life defined by music, survival, and healing.Darren Hayes' song choices: The Dream Academy - 'Life in a Northern Town'Haim - 'Hallelujah'Young The Giant - 'The Walk Home'Coldplay - 'O'Maisie Peters – 'Two Weeks Ago'00:00 Introduction and Setting the Scene at Chaplin Studios02:31 The History of Chaplin Studios: From Charlie Chaplin to A&M Records04:00 Karen Carpenter's Ghost and the Sacred Walls05:13 The Theme: Songs of Healing and Music Saving a Life05:41 Growing Up with Domestic Violence in Logan, Queensland06:05 Music as Escape: AM Radio, The Carpenters, and Auntie Jenny's Records06:56 Learning to Sing from Diana Ross and His Mother's Voice08:01 The Dream Academy - 'Life in a Northern Town'08:50 Catharsis Through Melancholy and the Sentimentality of Childhood10:52 Transitions: Missing His Siblings and "The Morning Lasted All Day"12:12 The End of High School and Not Wanting to Grow Up14:23 Growing Up in Logan: Feeling Like a Prince Despite Poverty15:12 A Hyper-Masculine World and Making Star Wars Toys Kiss15:44 Deciding He Was Famous at Age Ten: Protective Armor Against Bullying16:38 Being Called the F Word by His Father Before He Knew What It Meant18:05 Either Be Famous and Magical, or Die18:27 His Job Was to Keep His Mother Alive19:21 Hockey Sticks and Midnight Escapes: Surviving His Father's Violence20:15 Haim - 'Hallelujah'21:02 The Sound of Grace: Guardian Angels and Being Protected21:58 Being Uninvited from a Party and His Mother's Comfort23:30 "You've Got a Hallelujah": Surviving Childhood24:46 When Did Music Become the Path?

Curbcast is Back for LifeLarryAmerica! Welcome back to our breakdown of Larry's brand-new sketch comedy series, Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness: an Almost History of America. Executive produced by 44, this series takes historical storytelling to a completely different level. You can follow the official show hashtag #LifeLarryAmerica to stay connected with the project.In Season 1 Episode 5, titled "Lincoln," Larry tackles two iconic historical moments with classic Curb-style absurdity. Dursin and Clay kick things off at the O.K. Corral lot with Timothy Olyphant as Wyatt Earp and Don Johnson as Doc Holliday. Larry's lack of "knot confidence" leads to a horse pig-parking dispute with Marc Menchaca's cowboy Clanton, turning a historic 30-second shootout into an agonizing logistical debate over start times, pacing, and blacksmith appointments. Then, Bill Hader shines as Abraham Lincoln in the Oval Office and Ford's Theatre, trying to duck out on a five-cent Appomattox spelling bet while dealing with a missing yellow scarf. Kathryn Hahn brings unhinged energy as Mary Todd Lincoln in full grief mode, Seth Morris demands White House evictions as a suspicious Andrew Johnson, and Jay Renshaw makes a brief, awkward hallway bump as John Wilkes Booth.Hit that subscribe button, leave a comment with your favorite sketch, and ring the bell for weekly historical comedy updates!

Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness
WARNING: THIS INTERVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR DEADWOOD (and almost for JUSTIFIED, but we caught ourselves!)How do you know you've found your calling? For Jim Beaver, it happened the instant he stepped onto a stage, before even speaking his first line. Jim joins Weezy and Lisa to reflect on a career that's taken him from sitcoms to Supernatural to Shakespeare and Shakespearean Westerns to some of television's most beloved dramas with the most devoted fans.Jim looks back on his early work, including the network sitcom Thunder Alley with Ed Asner, before discussing the role that became a career-defining institution: Whitney Ellsworth on Deadwood. Fans of the show won't be surprised to learn that the cast knew they were creating something extraordinary. Jim recalls the emotional experience of learning his character's fate and filming Ellsworth's heart wrenching exit, which quickly led to another collaboration with David Milch on John from Cincinnati.The conversation turns to Supernatural, where Jim's portrayal of Bobby Singer became fertile fan favorite fodder. He explores how the show's strongest moments had less to do with monster hunting and more to do with characters and relationships. Do you remember an episode called “Weekend at Bobby's?” Jim shares the exhaustion of carrying the lead and the pride of starring in Jensen Ackles' directorial debut! Why are two of Jim's most beloved characters, on Supernatural and on The Boys, named some version of Robert Singer? It's an inside joke by creator Eric Kripke, at the expense of his friend, Director Bob Singer.Jim also shares memorable experiences working alongside Timothy Olyphant on Justified, Bryan Cranston on Breaking Bad, and Jonathan Banks on Better Call Saul, and we delve into The Boys' metaphor which mirrors our current political landscape.Plus, IMDb Roulette is full of gems, from singing nuns to Third Rock From the Sun!Also, we are recommending The Prime series Sterling Point and our own Lisa Arch's appearance on the finale of Life, Larry and the Pursuit of UnhappinessPath Points of Interest:Jim Beaver on WikipediaJim Beaver on IMDBJim Beaver on FacebookJim Beaver on InstagramJim Beaver on BlueskyLife's That Way by Jim BeaverDeadwoodSupernaturalJustifiedThe BoysSterling PointLife, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness

The Round of 32 of the 2026 FIFA World Cup is nearly complete, and there have been some thrilling finishes to matches. Eddie thinks that England weren't quite as bad as people are making out, and feels confident ahead of their clash against Mexico at the Azteca. There were controversial refereeing decisions galore, as Balogun was sent off for the USA, England were denied a penalty, and Germany and Spain had goals chalked off for mystery fouls on a goalkeeper. But the real question is, will anyone be able to stop France? Can Belgium build on the momentum of their late comeback against Senegal? And will we see a better version of Brazil against Norway? Plus, Frank is finally watching 'From', Eddie isn't impressed with 'Life, Larry, and the Pursuit of Unhappiness', and Serena Williams was up to her old tricks against Maya Joint at Wimbledon.
