| 01 Jul 2023 | Three Human Realities Existing Simultaneously: The Autistic, Neurodivergent, and Neurotypical Neurotypes | 01:19:34 | |
Ready to finally understand how other people think? In general, people tend to assume that the way their brain works is more or less the way all human brains work - but they couldn't be more wrong. The diversity in how the human brain functions is so incredible it tends to be literally unbelievable because our brains cannot even conceive of these alternate ways of thinking, sensing, and processing. From internal monologues to the inability to visualize images to the fundamental thought processes of neurotypical, neurodivergent, and autistic people - you might just learn more about the way other people think within this 90 minutes than in your entire life up to this moment. This episode is a cross-post from the podcast Rethinking Reality, hosted by Erika Heidewald.

| 29 Jul 2023 | Too Hot to Handle Season 5 Episode 8 Recap | 01:31:15 | |
We finally watched Too Hot to Handle and have found a truly worthy and unusual contender in Netflix's dating reality show stable.

| 05 Aug 2023 | Deepfake Love Season 1 Review - Recapping Netflix's New Spanish Reality Dating Show with an AI Twist - Falso Amor | 01:02:53 | |
Netflix's latest reality dating show is a masterpiece. Josh, Frida, and I binge watched the whole season and we need more people to watch it so we can talk about this absolutely unhinged work of art. Deepfake Love (Falso Amor in the original Spanish) is a warning of a looming AI dystopia, a trashy reality show, and an insightful revelation into the neurotypical psyche, all at the same time. And that's realidad. Find us on social media: https://twitter.com/erikaheidewald https://twitter.com/JShahryar https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5ibZRt1YLPPlw_tGSMnynA Til Death Do Us Part!

Or should we blame the entire cast for sabotaging their own game all season even though they weren't the mole? If this season has taught me anything, it's that as human beings we are all bad!

| 24 Dec 2024 | Luigi Mangione's Mainstream Media Villain Edit | 00:36:10 | |
The news coverage of the Luigi Mangione story seems to exist in a different reality from the conversation happening among the public on social media because regardless of whatever part of the political spectrum they supposedly represent, the mainstream media is owned by billionaires and beholden to corporate interests. Let's analyze what happens when reality tv and the news become indistinguishable and our billionaire overlords create their own reality by giving regular people the villain edit in real life.
