Show Notes
Welcome to the 131st episode of the award-winning Diverse Minds podcast.
This month’s theme is all about recognition. In particular, recognising things we may take for granted and things outside our sphere of reference.
So, in today’s episode, I’m going to be talking about how true crime podcasts can help us to see bias.
In today’s show
- Why I decided to connect bias and true crime podcasts. [01:15]
- What unconscious bias is [02:35]
- Some of the podcasts that I listened to that brought this to the forefront for me. [05:03]
- Different types of biases. [06:45]
- The role that bias had to play in some of the scams. [12:47]
Quotes from The Body Keeps the Score
- Unconscious bias refers to a bias, is something that we're unaware of, and it happens outside of our control.
- Past experiences influence our thinking.
- We see the world as we are not as it is.
- We may also ignore the faults of people we like, and notice the faults of more of people from groups we unconsciously don't like.
- When people are more tired, and under time pressure, the more vulnerable they are.
