  • Résumé

  • The world is a complex place. A complex place where answers are sometimes hard to find. But in this podcast the economy professor Micael Dahlen asks the seemingly simple questions that lead you on a winding journey into the core of what it means to be a human being.

    It might feel like social media is making us dumber, that our nightly scrolling through our phones makes us lesser human beings - but what if the behavior has more to do with distance and empathy to the people that we are trying to connect with than intelligence? After the 'Fast and the Furious' films were released, studies indicate that we actually started speeding faster than before the Premiere. If a film with fast cars makes us drive faster - what happens if we start to "speed-watch" (watching things at double the speed)? And why does the abundance of choice make us less satisfied in life?

    In the first three episodes, Micael Dahlen meets some of the worlds most renowned experts and scientists on human behavior and by being compulsively curious, he gets the answers to the questions we never even realised we wanted to ask.

    Ep. 1: Why Do Movie Studios Pre-Announce Sequels so Early?
    Oct 24 2019

    As the new Terminator film is having its premier in November, something odd has happened at the same time - two new sequels have already been pre-announced.

    Why is that? Does pre-announcement increase the perceived value of the current movies? And do we really have to watch them all? The economy professor Micael Dahlen travels to San Fransisco to meet the psychologist, Barry Schwartz.

    Ep. 2: Why Do Assholes Drive Expensive Cars?
    Oct 24 2019

    Why does a room feel colder when thinking about money and why do assholes driving fancy cars have to overtake smaller cars and scream at them? Is it the car that evokes the behaviour, or is it just that the people who can afford a fancy car aren't nice to begin with? The economy professor Micael Dahlen travels to Minneapolis to meet the professor Kathleen Vohs.

    Ep. 3: Can Speed Watching Change the Way We Perceive the World?
    Oct 24 2019

    Why is it that speed-reading is considered a common thing, something that we do every day without even reflecting over it - but "speed-watching" (watching things at double the speed) divides into two camps - upset or obsessed? And how does what we watch affect us in the real world away from the screen? Why do people drive even faster having watched a Fast and the Furious Premiere?

    Micael meets with the journalist Jeff Guo and goes to Boston to talk to the associate professor Jena Anupam at Harvard Medical School.

Very enjoyable

It was interesting to listen to. I also found myself quite liking Micael. I found myself smiling about things he said quite often. He seems like a kind man.

Worth the listen

I like to start off by saying I thoroughly enjoyed the content of the podcasts and Micael Dahlen's ideas and perspectives. I would definitely say it's worth a listen if you are a person with a curious mind.

The main reason I didn't give it full stars across the board was because of some of the production. I found that the intro and outro music made it feel as though the content of the podcast was going to be depressing or doom and gloom. The other reason is when Micael Dahlen was speaking to the guests I found it difficult to find the right volume setting. It was loud when the guest spoke and quiet when he spoke.

Thought invoking and relatable

Excellent content. Very easy to listen to and extremely interesting. Micael brings scientific thought experiments delivered by himself and experts around the world to approach questions that you've likely asked yourself throughout your daily routine.

I couldn't recommend this podcast series enough!

Witty and entertaining

Fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed the approach to the subject matter... intelligent and humourous conversation supported by psychological and scientific aspects of human nature.

verbal diarrhea

dribble, a frustrated sheep spreading useless information to the dumbed down sheeple herd. God help us all.
