Read excerpt
In this episode, Dr. Shaunna and Dr. Lisa explore Weltschmerz — the German concept of “world-pain,” a deep, melancholic weariness about the suffering and imperfection woven into human life. Dr. Shaunna leads a conversation about gathering and fighting, drawing inspiration from Priya Parker’s books.

Bye, Bye Golf (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We had so much to discuss this week that we just skipped the Word of the Week and got right to it! Apparently, there is language to describe individuals who have had to outthink systems that weren't built for their survival. (Oh wait, are we talking about the entire U.S.?) Anyway, Bruce Ellis's Hidden Talents Framework introduces survivor's intelligence and its five dimensions. Then, we look at Callaway Golf and Good Good's most recent advertising misstep, tracing the timeline from the deleted a
