The ART of the Conversation

Sandra shares her perspective on how Berlin has changed over the past 30 years. We discuss various aspects of her career as a communication consultant, and the key importance of learning how to be comfortable talking to strangers and building good tit-for-tat relationships with those in your network. We also discuss the psychological difficulties of learning new skills and starting new projects, and how repeated exposure is the only way to make progress in one’s career.

This time we explore the ways in which we have changed our mind throughout our lives - and why it was often difficult to do so.

We look at the history and usefulness of religion and ideology, what it means to be open-minded, and why we have cognitive biases.

And, of course, sprinkling in our own personal experiences throughout the show.

Marco and Murphy take some nootropics (Modafinil) and talk about our experiences with drugs and how it has affected our epistemic worldview and long-term wellbeing. We drill into societal perceptions, scientific research, and possible future trends (transhumanism).
