    Episode 3 - The Hidden Cost of Identity
    2022/06/30
    Today we’re talking about Self-confidence, self-esteem, identity, and dear-lord-do-we-have -to, shame. We’ll also explore the social element shared by esteem and shame, so because we fundamentally misunderstand how examples work, we decided to kick things off with the least social example of an already unsocial sport: a man playing chess on his own against a machine. Don’t tell me your pulses aren’t racing!

    Get ready for some Gritty Group therapy as we explore the hidden cost of identity! What is shame? How does shame control us? And what, if anything, can we do about it?

    Episode 2 - With Story In Mind!
    2022/06/29
    Today we start with the story of a 12-year-old boy being groomed by a circus performer into believing he was immortal. But don’t panic just yet. Today’s episode is about stories.

    We talk about how evolution gave us stories and once it discovered their power, it used them as much as possible. We talk about stories of cause and effect and of identity, and along the way we discuss film editing, dopamine, the Godfather, the Hero's journey, and information theory.

    What is the role of story in our lives?

    Episode 1 - Strangely Conscious
    2022/06/29
    Today’s episode is the first one ever! So in the interests of starting light, it begins with the operation from hell! Today’s episode is going to ask questions about our perception of ourselves, the world around us, our consciousness, and our anxieties.

    Along the way, we’re going to look at what your brain has in common with Bill Clinton, how I get self-conscious around monkeys, a pubcrawl to spacetime and bondage, hallucinations, and what it might mean to trust your gut. This episode is about feeling stuck and how some people got unstuck.

    What part of us is conscious anyway?
