    The Life of a Black Conservative w/Glenn Loury

    Glenn Loury reflects on his memoir, Late Admissions, and the process of recalling his life experiences. He discusses the powerful and galvanizing experience of reliving his past, including memories of his mother, admiration for his father, and personal struggles with addiction and infidelity. The conversation then shifts to the transformation of the South Side of Chicago over time and the unraveling of the Black family structure. The impact of cultural and societal changes, as well as class differences, on the decline of the Black family is explored. The chapter concludes with a discussion on the contrasting experiences of Black students at Northwestern University and the sense of wonder and entitlement among different socioeconomic backgrounds. The conversation covers various topics including personal experiences with racial identity, addiction and recovery, the debate between Booker T. Washington and W.E.B.

    Is Therapy Bad for You? with Abigail Shrier

    Today we discuss Abigail Shrier's new book, "Bad Therapy". She explains the harmful effects of therapy, particularly on children and adolescents, and the risks associated with overdiagnosis and overmedication.

She emphasizes the importance of authoritative parenting and the negative impact of excessive mental health interventions in schools. Additionally, she discusses the controversy surrounding ADHD diagnosis and the ineffectiveness of drug education programs. We discuss the impact of mental health surveys on children, the influence of social media on mental health, the role of mental health professionals in social contagions, the rarity of happiness, the power of exposure therapy and the therapeutic approach, the contagion of Tourette's on TikTok, the controversy surrounding multiple personality disorder, the overdiagnosis of seasonal affective disorder, the importance of exposure therapy in dealing with anxiety, and the implications for parents in approaching therapy.

    Why? The Purpose of the Universe with Philip Goff

    My guest today is Philip Goff. Philip is a philosophy professor at Durham University. He's the author of Galileo's Error and Why the Purpose of the Universe. Philip believes that science gives us objective reasons to believe that there's value in the universe and he comes at this from a very different angle than say Sam Harris, who reaches the same conclusion for different reasons in his book, The Moral Landscape. Philip relies heavily on the so-called fine tuning argument. So we talk a lot about that in this podcast. We also talk about Philip's theory of panagentialism and much more.
