  Episode #9

  009 - Make a Change

  Aug 10, 20261h 39mS1

  In this episode, we learn that Jarid is a human being who has spent years studying psychology in academic settings and helping to treat people with psychological issues, but is definitely NOT a psychologist. Nevertheless, he and Jake discuss what so many of us humans have in common: a desire to change. Jarid calls Jake an asshole again, Jake defends his methods, and then Jarid ironically explains the value of healthy intention. They also discuss addiction, denial, and the difficulty of finding redemption after bad deeds. And, as usual, Jake tries to tie it into evolutionary psychology and our tribal nature.

  008 - YOLO? Reincarnation Explained & (Almost) Proved

  Aug 2, 20261h 42mS1

  Is reincarnation really the most important issue in humanity? Jarid is skeptical. So Jake makes the case by referencing quantum and Newtonian science, relaying documented cases of children remembering past lives (including his own), questioning the existence of death itself, and even quoting the Bible. Stay till the end if you want to hear about Jarid's new kitten, NASA's new space telescope, and some super-amazing trivia about our relationship to the moon.

  005 - Exploring Cliches

  Jun 18, 20261h 36mS1

  Jarid and Jake decide to pick cliches from a list (thanks, Cael) that need corrected or explained. The ones they chose: Everything happens for a reason. You only live once. If you build it, they will come. Forgive and forget. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Jake also spends several minutes being way too mad about Creed, a band that every real music fan already despises. And then Cael spends just a few seconds roasting Jarid.
