    These podcasts saved me during lockdown! Constantly listening to Karl’s simple perspective on life, Ricky’s infectious laughter and Steve saying “Man alive Karl”; a cure for anyone feeling down.

      You are off course right in that we always see the same side of the moon. And the reason is very simple:
      One side of the Moon always faces the Earth because the spinning period of the Moon is the same as the time it takes for the Moon to orbit around the Earth. Called "tidal locking" 🌍

      Apparently most people don't have it. I don't either. Transfer of thought is perception, instantaneous. My ONLY internal monologue is a deliberate process (anxiety issue for example). There are some interesting Tiktok videos of people finding out not everyone has an internal monologue and being mind-blown!😂❤

    Ok genuine question: why DO we all fall asleep with these on? Does it make me feel safe? A laugh before sleeping? Have I Pavlovianly conditioned myself to having to listen to these every night? Who knows 🤷‍♀️

      I've Pavlovianed myself! I cannot sleep without them. I can be tossing and turning for ages, but XFM on, and I'm out like a light

      Mattsmith, it’s really surprising to catch yourself laughing out loud when listening to this…….even at such a low point in life….as some of us find ourselves …….

    This is by far the hardest laugh I've had this year... seriously I thought I was gonna pass out at certain points. I was going to bed listening to this and was laughing so hard the bed was shaking. The neighbors must have thought I was having sex or something. I fell asleep with the earbuds in, woke up an hour later from Ricky's maniacal laughter, listened for a bit and started laughing half asleep. I even had dreams where I was laughing. This must be good for the soul.
