Summary
In this episode, Dr. Tom Kiely explores the profound impact of brain disorders on personality and identity, using the iconic film 'Die Hard' and the story of Bruce Willis as a backdrop. He discusses the historical case of Phineas Gage to illustrate how brain injuries can alter personality, and delves into frontotemporal dementia (FTD), a condition that robs individuals of their character and affects their loved ones. The episode emphasizes the importance of understanding these changes through the lens of neuropsychology and the need for support for families dealing with such challenges.
