Why Many Decisions You Make Don’t Really Matter & The Fascinating World of Weather

from Something You Should Know · host Mike Carruthers | OmniCast Media

Take a guess… how many times does the average American check their cellphone in 2023? I don’t know your guess, but I bet you are way off. This episode begins with some amazing stats regarding how and how much we use our phones. https://www.reviews.org/mobile/cell-phone-addiction/ We spend a lot of time agonizing over decisions that really don’t matter. That’s just one of the revelations I discuss with Annie Duke. She is a speaker and consultant on the topic of decision making, a former professional poker player and author of the book, How To Decide: Simple Tools for Making Better Choices (https://amzn.to/3OQgGIF). Listen as Annie looks at the whole process of decision making through a very enlightening lens. The advances in the science of weather in just the last few years are astounding. Here to tell you all about them is James Marshall Shepherd. He is the Georgia Athletic Association Distinguished Professor of Geography and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Georgia and host of the Weather Geeks podcast https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/weather-geeks/id1373312240. He also explains how weather forecasting works and the difference between partly cloudy and partly sunny and other meteorological terms. You are not supposed to drink alcohol when you take antibiotics. Most people think it will neutralize the effects of the antibiotic but that’s not the reason.
