Show Notes
It's fungus time with microbiology professor and all-around fun gal Sydney Glassman. (See what we did there?) Sydney describes the fire-loving fungi that have learned to eat charcoal. Then, media personality Caitlin Green briefly takes over and hosts the show, interviewing David and his girlfriend Miranda about their recent watching of the romantic hit Heated Rivalry. (Listen to Caitlin co-hosting The Jann Arden Podcast here.) For Conspiracy Corner, political science professor Lee Kuhnle tells the cautionary tale of the dancing plague of 1518, and uses it to show how more modern panics form. (Check out Lee's podcast The Uncover Up here.) Philosopher and scientist Michael Prinzing reveals how being virtuous is good for you and can make your life more meaningful. Social-personality psychologist William Chopik explains that narcissism shows surprisingly consistent patterns across many different countries. On Therapy Thursdays on a Wednesday, social worker and therapist Gary Direnfeld and David do rapid-fire therapy with the following topics: Are 'little white lies' okay?; Going from boss to consultant with your children; Crazy dog (and cat) owners; and When your kids come home looking for a fight.
