His book is really really good. It's like a psych 101, 102, 103 course combined in a book. It doesn't go too in-depth into the research, but provides the essential information to get you to think.
A quarter way in and this is fascinating. PS finished watching the whole thing. Very different topics than most interviews, and I just wanted to give you a HUGE thank you for not bringing up ”cancel culture.” Now I’m off to watch Sam Harris.
"These ancient ideas are kind of these, snippets of open source cognitive code, that there is actually starting to be a neuroscience basis for" I absolutely love this metaphor. The reason why these sayings are so profound is because they have lasted the test of time and people. Each person that hears and validates it and therefore repeats it, is someone who has found this code (insight), found it useful and then passed it on, maybe even adding their own dimension to it or leaving it as is.
It’s the one down side to podcasts and videos (unless they have time stamps). Books have chapters and anyone who reads enough usually skips many of them. My guess is most podcasters feel like viewers won’t watch as long. I find the opposite actually true. If I can jump right into something I know I will be interested in, I am much more likely to listen to the whole thing. Some UA-camrs use them and it’s great. Andrew Huberman and Lex Friedman are good examples.
A fascinating and true statement, that we should examine the built-in algorithms we have that cause us to feel things such as jealousy, and in some circumstances we should try to quell and rewire that emotion when no such threat to our paired partner relationship actually exists. But such self-rewiring should be done when we're in misalignment with an objective reality and threat assessment. There's a huge risk in trying to rewire legitimate algorithms for illegitimate reasons.
Superb content once again Chris and thank you for helping us stay sane during this time of insanity. I think a lot of people are seeing through the poision associated with divisive topics so this is a welcome relief.
I have always enjoyed the variety of topics on this channel. In my humble layman's opinion Chris is getting better and better at interviewing in so much as when to intervene and what questions to ask. Thanks for all the enjoyable content it has been really appreciated. Hopefully I can take some of the knowledge on board.
Your stated goals and what you put your energy and efforts and time into should be aligned. If you are chasing the wrong robot as.hound dog, you might not enjoy catching up with the rabbit. Youmight be like the ravjng greyhound that actually caught the electrically powered rabbit and it was not a good experience for the greyhound. Some humans succeed and they do get what they said would make them happy and then aren't happy.
Great project, and I'm really enjoying the book. However, I wish he didn't start many of his answers with "so" and stopped using "kinda" so often. It detracts from his credibility.

Thanks Grace. Ryan is such a hidden gem. Very glad I found him

Chris, would you consider timestamps? Even just using each question as a marker?

These interviews are awesome. I have listened to 3 this morning and my copy of Ryan’s book is coming tomorrow 🤩

It’s very unlikely that any of your algorithms are fully in alignment.
This is a really excellent episode (I’ve listened to every single one and I’d go as far as saying this is top5) .... I’ve sent his book to my kindle!

How many are able to picture the Mind. That would be a good start.
Great interview, thank you for sharing. I always pronounced it duck-uh, now I'm not sure, I kept thinking you said Duker, like it was a last name.
Aye, this fella is Joe Rogan with a brain.
I know what it's like to be ecstatic eating bread and butter
