1003: Interstellar Aftermath, ADHD Curiosity, & Dogs are People Too
We completed the bit of Susie not watching Interstellar, and now we're hearing Sooz Review of the film. Sarah is still emotionally recovering from it. It was emotional! So we're getting existential, philosophical, and galactic! We hear why humans are the only animals with chins, and it turns out it's kinda wacky. We find out why one scientist thinks ADHD is best defined as a hypercuriosity, and Sarah is a real big fan of this spin on it. There is a dog poop problem in New York, and it's causing a divide between people who see their dogs as equal to people vs. people who think they should be treated like animals, not humans.00:00 - Susie's Emotional Interstellar Review and Philosophical Reflections10:41 - Exploring the Evolutionary Mystery of the Unique Human Chin24:24 - Redefining ADHD as a Persistent Pattern of Hypercuriosity38:28 - The Debate: Are Dogs People or Animals?
