831: Mouse Therapy, Concert Amnesia, & Camera Regrets

We got to have a meetup in real life, and it was magical, except for a disastrous restaurant dining experience where we felt like we were on a Challenge and were force fed disgusting food. We talk about how social media is influencing the photos we take, the memories we make, and the ways it affects our lives. Sarah is trying to overcome her fear of rodents, and a breed of giant rats that scientists have trained to save lives is helping her with her phobia. We hear why Nick Cannon has insured his...family jewels, and why it might not be a bad idea. Sarah explains why some people think AI will provide prison simulations as punishment for real crimes, and we debate whether that's ethical or even possible. We discuss a phenomenon called concert amnesia that prevents people from remembering emotional experiences due to the way they affect our brains, and we're mad about it.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comRead this week's Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/thebraincandypodcast/rat-superheroes-real-estate-in-heaven-feeding-athletesJoin our Candy Club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: https://www.thebraincandypodcast.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:Control Body Odor ANYWHERE with @lumedeodorant and get 15% off with promo code BRAINCANDY15 at https://lumedeodorant.com! #lumepodGet 20% OFF @honeylove by going to https://www.honeylove.com/BRAINCANDY! #honeylovepodGo to https://www.greenchef.com/BRAINCANDY50 and use code braincandy50 to get 50% off, plus 20% off your next two months.Head to https://moshlife.com/BRAINCANDY to save 20% off plus FREE shipping on your first 6-count Trial Pack.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
