'Stuff', or, Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?

Our hosts, Rich and Ray, conclude season one, and their journey through the show's title, by exploring an idea that sits deep within the DNA of modern psychotherapy, namely, that humans are not so much distressed by things, but rather, by what we think about things. Human minds have a remarkable ability to construct a version of reality that is so compelling, it can alter our perceptions of the real thing. This internal model of the world also drives much of our behaviour. Along the way, our two old psychologists also discuss topics as wide-ranging as cake, Richard Dawkins' new book, society's insatiable demand for feedback, and whether or not to eat offal.If you want to send feedback, suggest topics for future episodes or make contact for any other reason, you can do so at [email protected]
