Dr. Gary Bell's Absurd Psychology

The age we live in has the fattest and greediest people ever. With too much stationary time sitting in front of phones, televisions and computers people eat and plot and scheme how to make more money. These are both survival rated and deep into our genetic make up. Are we human enough to take control of these impulses or will they drive our life? Tune in and learn how to channel our energies and get the results we desire at the same time and for the right reasons!

What is the purpose of life? Is there a God? What on Earth are we doing here? Among life's big questions, the one that has always interested me the most is: Who am I? I imagine that other people find this question to be very interesting and meaningful as well. Human beings are hyper-social creatures. We care a lot—at times, too much—about what other people think of us. As such, it seems natural that we should care about who we are and what we think of ourselves. But how does one get to the bottom of who am I? TUne in and find out as we explore this eternal topic!

Why do people believe in God? For most people in the world, the answer seems obvious: Because it’s self-evident that God exists. From the point of view of the believer, the really puzzling question is how anyone could not believe. There was once a time in the prehistory of our species when nobody believed in a god of any sort. Our evolutionary ancestors were all atheists, but somewhere along the way they found religion. Tune in and explore this life changing topic from the outside in and the inside out!

One of the greatest Human challenges we all face is ourselves. Lack of Self Control and moving that to Self Discipline makes our lives productive, memory filled and healthy. Anything hard makes our lives easier. This show is about change and grabbing those tools needed to make the unattainable attainable. Self love is learning how to say No to anything that will hurt you. Self control curbs our impulses to act without thinking. Self Discipline is the process to make our dreams happen.

The Honeymoon Phase (beginning of a relationship) is so powerful chemically and emotionally that we often fall into the negative outcome of making commitments with the promise of what it brings. A desperate leap of faith. We are designed only to see the best and forget all the other signs that others may see. Getting to know someone who may be your partner is so exciting and new. We are reminded how lonely we truly are as we dump countless energy into this new venture. Infatuation is as if the Great Depression has lifted and we are finally feeling alive! This stage is needed so people will procreate our species. However, anyone can breed, yet not everyone can be a partner or parent.This show is about learning what love is and how you know if it is just infatuation. Tune in and learn!

Reading people in this day and age can be hard. Many of our relationships are now on-line, over the phone and rarely in person. However, our meta-communication (non-verbal) can give us answers to many things most would never admit. There are also verbal clues and word choices that can complicate and contradict what a person is saying with their words. By improving our ability to read people, we naturally will improve our communication, our lives, relationships and hopefully read people well enough to quickly weed out the unproductive. Tune in and enhance the skills you already have!

Quality of life is a general term that simply infers stability, health and consistency. However, most of this world operates paycheck to paycheck, indebted up to our ears, owning little of value and rent. Some people have some of these areas covered, but the quality part is missing. We are going to take a deep dive into how to make better choices for our peace off mind and more stable mental health. We will look at how a lack of quality of life can determine how we think and how healthy we are.

When a baby comes into a couple’s life, extra stress and strain is understandable. In a healthy relationship, the couple tends to pull together and is aware that any tension and discord are a result of adding new responsibilities and demands. In general, when it is “just” new baby stress, the situation tends to improve dramatically when the couple is able to get more sleep and spend time together that restores a sense of loving marital closeness. Signs of deep relationship trouble are indicated by more dramatic and lasting shifts in behaviors. Such warning signs include constant fighting and avoidance of home life (e.g., not coming home, keeping late hours, refusal of co-parenting duties, substance abuse, etc.). Tune in and learn how to make it work!

Apathy is the opposite of love. People who pass around apathy as their go to emotion are extremely hard too deal with. Their biggest issue is that they think that protects them from being hurt. These folks are deeply insecure and apathy consumes them until they are in the presence of something they enjoy. This show is about how to deal with them and hopefully change them.

Metrosexual is a blend of metropolitan and heterosexual, coined in the 1990's describing a man (especially one living in an urban, post-industrial, capitalist culture) who is especially meticulous about his grooming and appearance, typically spending a significant amount of time and money on shopping as part of this. It is somewhat of a turn on what European men from France and Italy are characterized as. However, the love a Metrosexual mostly have is more about themselves than men or woman. Also, not all Metrosexuals are heterosexual. They are frequently all over the place sexually. Tune in and learn about how they have evolved into all facets of our lives!
