359: Justin Ramsdell | How to Detect and Disarm Pseudoscience
2 juni 2020 · 1 uur 24 min
Justin Ramsdell is a clinical psychologist, an expert witness, an assistant professor of forensic psychology at George Mason University, and a veteran pseudoscience detector. Lees meer
What We Discuss with Justin Ramsdell:
Why stressed brains don't make great decisions (especially when there's no light visible at the end of the tunnel to indicate that there is an end).
How pseudoscience preys on our cognitive biases to give us the answers we want with the scantest of unprovable "evidence."
Why watching YouTube videos and ranting in Reddit threads doesn't count as "research" in the same way that work done by field-experienced scientists with doctorate degrees and peer-reviewed studies under their belts counts as research.
Be wary of intellectual trespassers -- who might very well be field-experienced scientists with doctorate degrees and peer-reviewed studies under their belts, but make wild, pseudoscientific claims about areas outside their expertise (e.g., a chiropractor who claims to cure COVID-19 with massage).
Why you don't have to be a field-experienced scientist with a doctorate degree and peer-reviewed studies under your belt to avoid being hoodwinked by pseudoscience charlatans.

29 mei 2020 · 46 min
Your friend wants to be a mother more than anything, but says she and her husband can’t afford the IVF it would take to make this possible. On the other hand, she habitually buys expensive gifts for everyone in your social circle. Is there any socially acceptable way for you to have a conversation with her about priorities? We’ll tackle this and more here on Feedback Friday! Lees meer

On This Week’s Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
Is your friend — who says she wants to be a mother more than anything — blowing the money she could be using for IVF on expensive gifts for everyone else? And if so, is there any socially acceptable way for you to have a discussion with her about it?
You were on the path to a job in a new field until the pandemic hit, and now you’re finding it hard to land interviews without past experience on your resume. Should you go back to your old field in the meantime until things go more or less back to normal?
There’s a gap on your resume where you took a year off of college to go to drug and alcohol rehab. Is there a way to spin this positively?
While you’ve sought therapy to mitigate the effects of your father’s abuse as a child, your BPD-diagnosed sister hasn’t — and it causes her to act out in ways that are dangerous to herself and others. How can you best help her?
How do you decide when it’s worth pushing through something (like learning a new language), or quitting because it causes anxiety and isn’t pleasant to endure at the time?
Life Pro Tip: If a bee colony has set…

357: Robin Dreeke | Sizing People Up
28 mei 2020 · 55 min
Robin Dreeke (@rdreeke) is the retired head of The FBI Behavioral Analysis Program and co-author of Sizing People Up: A Veteran FBI Agent's User Manual for Behavior Prediction and The Code of Trust: An American Counterintelligence Expert's Five Rules to Lead and Succeed. Lees meer
What We Discuss with Robin Dreeke:
People can be relied on to act in their own best interest (from their perspective, not yours).
Just because you like somebody for any number of commonalities doesn't necessarily mean you can (or should) trust them.
Why it creeps us out when people try too hard to get us to like them (and how we can avoid creeping out others when establishing rapport).
Four principles that allow you to make any conversation about the other person -- and therefore more aligned with their best interest.
How and why professionals who should understand the basics of rapport-building consistently fail (and how they can correct course).

Gabriel Mizrahi (@GabeMizrahi) joins us for this deep dive exploring the ups and downs of COVID-19 pandemic life and how to make the most of quarantine to emerge better, not beaten, from the experience. Lees meer
[Featured photo by Kari Shea]
What We Discuss with Gabriel Mizrahi:
While you may not be able to control how long the pandemic lasts, you can control your response to it — is there opportunity nestled in the setback?
How to use this downtime to strengthen relationships and build skills so you can springboard into action when things regain a semblance of normality.
From which everyday nuisances are you spared while quarantining? For which often overlooked boons should you be grateful now?
How to work efficiently and effectively from home even if you’ve always relied on the benevolent micromanagement skills of your resident office busybody.
How you and your kids could benefit from using this time to learn new skills together — like a new language you can bond over long after the pandemic passes.
And much more…

22 mei 2020 · 45 min
Your unstable roommate physically attacked you over an argument about laundry, and then she filed a protection from abuse order against you! Now even your family doesn't seem to believe your side of things, and abuse hotlines seem to dismiss you immediately because of your Y chromosome.

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
After seven-and-a-half years, we're losing a J! :(
When an unstable roommate tries to kill you and then convinces your family and friends and the legal system that you tried to kill her, is it time to get a lawyer even on your tight budget? [Thanks to Corbin Payne for weighing in!]
You're self-conscious about being Asian American during this pandemic, and your sister is even getting racist verbal abuse hurled at her in high school. What is the right attitude and perspective for you both to carry during this trying time?
What's the least awkward way to respond when someone self-deprecates themself in comparison to you?
You were recently selected for a diplomatic job in the Balkans with the Army, and despite your aversion to firearms, you'll be required to carry one. How do you mentally prepare for this compromise of your pacifist ideals?
You're one semester from college graduation, but nobody in your family knows your GPA is disappointingly low. To top it off, your three younger siblings are set for Ivy League schools and you feel like an unemployable…

What We Discuss with ZDoggMD:
No, COVID-19 wasn't cooked up in a lab somewhere to wreak havoc on the world's populace at the behest of elite politicians and scientists.
No, COVID-19 is not "activated" by wearing face masks designed to protect you and others from the spread of pathogens.
No, Dr. Anthony Fauci wasn't responsible for destroying Judy Mikovits' career and covering up her (discredited) contributions to medical science.

352: My Spouse Controls My Online Life! | Feedback Friday
15 mei 2020 · 49 min
Out of work since late last year, you were finally making progress on the job hunt until COVID-19 locked everything down. Now you've been making connections and finding opportunities on LinkedIn that seem promising. The problem is, your spouse is nervous that anything you post there will somehow hurt your chances for getting a job; it seems her resentment that you're not working -- added to the constant proximity of quarantining responsibly -- puts the world through a very negative lens and anything you say is stupid. Lees meer
So now she's monitoring your LinkedIn account from hers and picking fights with you every time you post anything there. Should you find another place to live for now while pursuing work, or should you just let your spouse control your online life and make that pursuit more difficult? We tackle this and more here on Feedback Friday!
And in case you didn't already know it, Jordan Harbinger (@JordanHarbinger) and Jason DeFillippo (@jpdef) banter and take your comments and questions for Feedback Friday right here every week! If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at friday@jordanharbinger.com.

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
How do you know if the work from home/side hustle guru you're following on Instagram is a scam artist or the real deal?
Sadly, your spouse is simultaneously resentful that you don't have a job and embarrassed that you post to LinkedIn looking for one -- and it causes fights that last for days. Should you find your own space for a while or let them control your online life?
Your significant other passed away in front of you at home, and now you're dealing with PTSD on top of grief in the very place where it happened. What can you do to move forward?
With the biological clock ticking, are you selfish or s…

General Martin Dempsey (@Martin_Dempsey) is a retired Army general who served as the 18th chairman of the Joint Chiefs for four years during the Obama administration, and the author of No Time for Spectators: The Lessons That Mattered Most from West Point to The West Wing. Lees meer
What We Discuss with General Martin Dempsey:
Why learning how to follow is as much of a skill as leadership.
That character is built over time based on a series of small decisions that we make during the uncertain moments when things don't go our way.
How someone who wanted to grow up and become a Supreme Court Justice detoured into a 45-year career in the military.
How an assignment that seemed like a career-ending punishment led General Dempsey to take on his most purposeful, important role.
How to be a trusted advisor -- whether it's to a CEO or the President.

What We Discuss with Dan Heath:
How many problems in our lives and in society are we tolerating simply because we’ve forgotten that we can fix them?
Why are we more often stuck in a cycle of response downstream of problems rather than upstream where we might prevent them from happening in the first place?
What lessons can we learn about upstream versus downstream thinking by examining our current pandemic crisis?
What the federal response to Hurricane Katrina tells us about an ounce of prevention being worth a pound of cure.
Upstream versus downstream thinking regarding the healthcare debate in the US.

349: How to Pick Your Battles Without Being a Doormat | Feedback Friday

You've never thought of yourself as a doormat, but you've just found it easier to meet people halfway and go with the flow rather than waste your energy on something stupid or trivial.

How do you choose your battles and resolve conflict without being a doormat -- especially while everyone's a bit on edge during this long, long pandemic?
You feel you should have strong stances on certain issues, but you don't want your bias to stop you from weighing the evidence that informs those stances. Is it wrong to not take a stand on issues because you honestly don't have all the information?
Your friend married an African man with old-world views of gender roles, so she works full time and maintains the house because he won't help with "women's" work. Quarantine has almost broken her. How can she get him to stop thinking in the 19th century and join her in the 21st?
You're an introvert about to move to an unfamiliar city to take up an exciting, challenging new job with a bigger paycheck. What are the most important things to keep in mind during this hard reset?

Why those who stand to be the first victims of climate disenfranchisement certainly won't be the last.
How soon we need to act, and to what degree, if we want to avoid the worst effects of climate change.
How we can use geoengineering to catalyze a solutions-based society that will reduce and eliminate these effects.
In what ways have we geoengineered the world in the past, and what does this tell us about the transformative power of industry and the role Thomas believes it should play in current and future geoengineering efforts?

What We Discuss with Brian Keating:
What compelled dynamite inventor Alfred Nobel to annually reward outstanding contributions for humanity, and how would he feel about the way Nobel prizes are awarded today?
What is an ethical will, and why should you make sure you have one in place sooner rather than later?
How accolades like the Nobel prize and the Academy Awards have taken on outsized importance in their respective fields in spite of being selected arbitrarily by an anointed few — with sometimes deadly consequences.
How Brian turned around surface losses like getting fired from an academic dream job and missing his shot at the Nobel prize from disasters into catalysts of great happiness.
How you can have a chance at winning a fragment of the 4.3-billion-year-old supernova that created Earth and the hemoglobin in your blood!

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
Beware of COVID-19 and work-from-home scams!
Did your significant other really dump you because they believed you were "faking" the symptoms of COVID-19 coronavirus, or were they just looking for a convenient excuse to end it?
Living in a pricey metropolis with zero job leads until the pandemic blows over, does it make sense to move back to small-town life with the parents to save money for now? (Thanks to Professor Scott Galloway for weighing in on this one!)

What We Discuss with Julie Gerberding:
What makes COVID-19 so uniquely dangerous compared to other diseases and would-be pandemics we've encountered in the past century?
Is staying six feet away from other people really safe enough, and will we have to practice social distancing until we get a COVID-19 vaccine?
Is the rapid spread of information -- and misinformation -- by way of the Internet more helpful or hurtful to our efforts to contain the spread of the virus?
Why did even our most trusted sources -- like the CDC -- initially discourage us from wearing masks and now insist on them for leaving the house?
How much does political pressure from a presidential administration affect the job of a CDC director?

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
As the world rapidly changes around us, what skills should you consider leveling up, and what jobs will exist in the new economy?
How do you network and get to know the team at a new company while remote?
Should you still pay off the full balance of your credit card to avoid finance charges, or should you hold on to the cash until the pandemic's over?
You love every aspect of your current job, but the perks are low and so is the pay. You know you could get full benefits and make three times more as a plumber. Is the choice as easy to make as it sounds?
Life Pro Tip: Worried that your favorite restaurant will be hurt by the slow business due to the coronavirus? Buy a gift card from them now and use it later. It’s like a loan, and there are usually pretty decent savings included to sweeten the deal.
Recommendation of the Week: Dirty Money Season 2

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
If you're wondering how to come out as gay when you're 13 and surrounded by non-supportive family and friends who might distance themselves because of their religious beliefs, Dorie Clark's got some wisdom to impart.
As a freelancer, how do you get more remote-work contracts instead of onsite offers during the COVID-19 coronavirus crisis?
Is your ADHD to blame for taking on more work than you can possibly handle, and does your imposter syndrome make you try too hard, or is there something else at play here?
Your recently graduated girlfriend needs to get a job, move out of her parents' house, and become independent to make progress, but she doesn't seem particularly motivated even when there's not a global pandemic to navigate around. How can you be encouraging without nagging?
You had a great job interview lined up, and then COVID-19 struck. How can you stay on the radar to have a leg up when things have calmed down and it's time to meet your prospective employer -- without coming off as too needy?

How can you encourage someone to make a business out of a hobby they're really good at? More important: should you?
In a world where nobody seems to listen for longer than five seconds, how can you politely have a conversation with people in a way that won’t just lead to temporary change?
Your side hustle is related to your main job. Is it reasonable to leverage your paid time to work on things that benefit you personally?
When your significant other had a traumatic childhood and shares the dark thoughts that haunt them with you, what can you do as a partner to be supportive without turning into a surrogate parent or therapist?
You want to be able to work with anyone, but you have a passive-aggressive and prickly coworker who refuses to engage with you. What can you do to defuse the tension and build a proper work relationship?

31 maart 2020 · 1 uur 11 min
Rachael Denhollander (@R_Denhollander) is an attorney, advocate, educator, and author of What Is a Girl Worth?: My Story of Breaking the Silence and Exposing the Truth about Larry Nassar and USA Gymnastics. Lees meer
What We Discuss with Rachael Denhollander:
How the culture of competitive gymnastics contributed to the commonplace physical and mental abuse of underage Olympic hopefuls.
How Nassar was able to manipulate the trust of parents while simultaneously abusing their children, unseen, just a few feet away using creepy sleight of hand techniques and misdirection like a masterful pedophile illusionist.
Why the same set of circumstances that make parents hesitate to believe that such abuse could be going on under their noses is the same set of circumstances that make such abuse possible -- and allows monsters like Nassar to get away with it for decades before their victims dare to speak out.
How Nassar was protected by numerous enablers in the organizations for which he worked, and why they may have chosen to take his word over the consistent allegations of countless victims.
Why Rachael was able to go public with the abuse that she herself endured from Nassar when others couldn't, and how this encouraged other victims to come forward.

Since we've been doing it for so long, we've got some pointers for working from home effectively for those of you out there who might be doing it for the first time during this pandemic!
Your career is extremely specialized and your choices for moving to another company are slim to none. And frankly, you don’t even want to do it anymore, but you can't afford to take a pay cut to start over. What should you do?
Your boss gets annoyed when you stand up and jog in place for five minutes every hour to stay limber after sitting for so long. Is taking such a short break really a demonstration of a lapsed work ethic, or is there more going on here?
How should you respond to random people on LinkedIn who reach out to network -- even when you have no friends in common? You don't mind being helpful, but how do you weed out the timewasters?
While you do have general social anxiety, you find yourself especially shy and less talkative around your attractive friends. Why is this, and how might you get past it?

You finally landed an interview with a high-end Italian furniture company for a position that falls in line with your career aspirations. You're super qualified except for one thing: the job posting listed "fluent in Italian" as a requirement, and you're definitely not.

321: How to Ask for Advice | Deep Dive
5 maart 2020 · 55 min
Gabriel Mizrahi (@GabeMizrahi) joins us for this deep dive exploring how to ask for advice the wrong way, how to ask for advice the right way, and the difference it can make between ignorance and understanding, failure and success. Lees meer
What We Discuss with Gabriel Mizrahi:
Are you actually asking for advice, or are you just seeking permission and encouragement to do something that might just be a terrible idea?
When you don't get the advice (i.e., validation) you were hoping for, do you somehow hold it against the person you asked?
When asking for advice, is your request overly vague, or is it specific, intentional, and explicit in detailing what you need?
Are you asking for advice when you don't know where to go, or are you asking for advice when you've gone as far as you can?
Asking for advice the right way is half the battle. The other half is being willing to listen to it.

What can we expect from — and how do we prepare for — a worst-case pandemic scenario, and how worried should we be about the current coronavirus threat?

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
Should you shut down your business that's in the red to focus on renting your spare room through Airbnb?
Given that everyone has limited time and energy, how do you decide what to pursue and what to let go of, and vet opportunities to ensure they're worth the effort?
What can you do to help your friend cope with the serious social anxiety that has literally driven her to drink?
As a recovering addict, you know following through with the attraction you feel for a fellow recovering addict would be a poorly timed mistake -- right?
Is it rude to offer unsolicited feedback on someone's resume when you notice room for improvement -- even when asked to share it with the people in your network?
Life Pro Tip: Make a checklist of things you need when traveling and stick it on your closet door (or in your phone's notes app). Every time you realize you forgot to pack something, add it to the list when you get back. It saves you time running around trying to remember what you will need each time you have to pack.
Recommendation of the Week: Ge…

21 februari 2020 · 43 min
As a remorseful sex offender who's done your time and been officially cleared as posing no threat to society, you're committed to turning your life around for you, your wife, and your five-year-old. But how can you get a job when you're a convicted felon with the extra stigma of being on the registry for the next 20 years? We'll tackle this and more here on Feedback Friday! Lees meer

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
How do you get a job if you're a registered sex offender who's done your time and been officially cleared as posing no threat to society?
While your significant other wants kids someday, you're undecided. You're young, but you don't want to waste their time. How long do you reasonably have to make the decision?
How do you handle a two-faced ladder-climber in your company whose Machiavellian manipulations aren't as invisible as they seem to think they are?
What can a high schooler do to network in the field they wish to pursue when it's a bit esoteric -- like biochemistry?
A job promotion for more pay and research experience sounds great, but you're worried about losing the downtime that allows you to get homework done for your current course load. Should you choose freedom or finances?
After past disappointments, your wife is unexpectedly pregnant. It's great news, but you've been training for a dream job that would take you away for the months around your baby's birth and the opportunity window is about to close since you're near the age cap. What's your best next move -- …

What are the benefits to taking every day, as a Navy SEAL might say, "one evolution at a time?"
What are the potential downfalls of having a 20-year plan?

314: Michael Yon | China's Big Trouble in Little Hong Kong
18 februari 2020 · 1 uur 14 min
Michael Yon (@Michael_Yon) is an author, columnist, and award-winning independent war correspondent who gives us a frontline view of the current civil unrest between Hong Kong protestors and the government of mainland China. Lees meer
What We Discuss with Michael Yon:
What Michael means by his oft-truncated and misunderstood quote: "If a writer wants to make money, he should avoid truth and tell people what they want to hear. Yet to win the war, tell the truth."
The difference between riots, protests, general civil unrest, and insurgency -- and what's really going on in Hong Kong right now in contrast with the official story.
Why Michael considers himself a war correspondent and not a journalist -- and how the two differ.
Why the long-simmering relationship between China and Hong Kong is only now coming to a boil, and what the rest of the world should take away from this.
How the current movement in Hong Kong compares to Poland's Solidarity Movement of the '80s -- and why this especially worries the Chinese Communist Party.
And much more...

313: My Boyfriend’s Flirty Friend | Feedback Friday
14 februari 2020 · 41 min
Your boyfriend's close friend flirts with him directly in front of you. He doesn't reciprocate, but it does bother you because you know -- from conversation you've had with her in the past before you became his significant other -- that she actually does fancy him. Should you communicate your displeasure to either party or just keep your cool? Lees meer

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
Confused by The Adam Carolla Show clips at the end of a few of our episodes? If you're not skipping commercials, you should have gotten the memo! ;)
Like our new show art? Much thanks to Santi Fox for making it so!
Many thanks to all the unknowns out there who keep sending us gifts but don't provide a return address!
Should you call out your boyfriend's close female friend for flirting with him directly in front of you, or should you keep your cool?
Friends give you the silent treatment when they're upset with you. Should you give them time to cool off, or is life just too short to deal with this kind of drama?
Your mom has ADHD and gets so distracted by her phone and surroundings that it always causes a scene. How can you travel together and remain sane?
You're either too social and your grad school work takes a hit, or you're too involved in school and your social life takes a hit. How can you strike a successful balance?
Your friend/employer insists on paying you by check, but you usually have to text him reminders and personally pick it up. Aren't there easier ways to get paid these days?

John Tierney (@johntierneynyc) is an award-winning science columnist for The New York Times, and he's the co-author of The Power of Bad: How the Negativity Effect Rules Us and How We Can Rule It. Lees meer
[Featured photo by Jamie Meggas]
What We Discuss with John Tierney:
What is negativity bias, and why does even a small dose of it have the power to overwhelm even our greatest reserves of positivity?
How can we psychologically overcome this innate negativity bias?
How we can watch the news (especially during an election year) without succumbing to deep despair at the state of the world by consuming what John calls a low-bad diet.
Why the worst person at your workplace has the power to passively drag the whole team down beyond the abilities of the best person to bring it up.
The negative golden rule -- it's what you do not do unto others that really matters.

What is emotional agility?
What’s wrong with trying to force ourselves to be happy all the time? Is our society misguided by a tyranny of positivity today?
Unpleasant and negative emotions actually serve a purpose — but what is that purpose and how can we use it to our advantage?
How do our thoughts, emotions, and stories hook us into responding ineffectively to life’s challenges, and how can we break these patterns?

310: Should I Fudge My Age in Dating Apps? | Feedback Friday
7 februari 2020 · 43 min
As an active 45-year-old woman who is usually mistaken for someone 10 years younger, you're throwing your hat back in the dating game after six years. You realize that if you put your actual age on your dating app profile, you'll probably get filtered out by the age range of men you're looking for. Friends have encouraged you to put down 37 or 38 as your dating profile age so you'll still fall within the desired search results, but you're uncomfortable about the deception. In a situation like this, should you fudge your age in dating apps? We'll break down this and much more on the latest Feedback Friday right here! Lees meer

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
When you're active and appear 10 years younger than you are, is fudging your age in dating apps acceptable if you're only trying to fool the search algorithm and not potential matches?
You never really bonded with your mother and you'd like to change that now, but she considers you "selfish." How much responsibility do both parties have to create familial closeness?
There's a family rift between your father and uncle thanks to inheritance drama. You'd like to invite your aunt to your wedding, but don't want to appear disloyal to your father. What's the right thing to do?
You've noticed that people who are very successful seem to have mastered the skill of remembering people's names, but you're terrible at it. How can you get better at remembering the names of people you meet?
You have an amazing new job opportunity, but you've been …
