  • 139 - To Err Is Truman
    In Episode 139 of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast: Mark Lindsay did the unthinkable – he watched a movie that Eloy Escagedo suggested he watch almost 2 years ago. Yes, we’re talking about the 1998 Jim Carrey film, The Truman Show. This not only opened up a conversation about the movie, it spawned other diversions that are related to the premise of the movie. Was it inspired by a book? Was it inspired by an episode from the 1980s re-boot of The Twilight Zone? Is there really such a thing as The Truman Show Delusion?

    Next, the question of how comfortable we are with giving away our privacy in exchange for access to entertainment and information returns for a second round. The hosts discuss the subject and expand on the concept of Terms Of Service Agreements. What are we giving our favorite social media platforms permission to do with our info? What are we freely giving away in order to use their platforms?

    Lots of questions and a few answers in this episode of Trampled Underfoot Podcast, so strap yourself in, grab your pineapple, and hang on! It’s going to be a bumpy ride!

  • 137 - The Flat Pineapple Theory
    In Episode 137 of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast: Flat Earthers. Do they really believe their theories? Are they just trying to keep an argument alive? Are they just doing it for the lulz? Or are they just after attention? Eloy Escagedo and Mark Lindsay delve into it. A brief discussion of the Placebo Effect follows, which leaves folks scratching their heads. The hosts get into a discussion about the absurdity of taking a little bit of information, and running to the extreme with it, not even knowing why, and use Pineapples as the example. (Hint: Pineapples aren’t just for breakfast anymore...) Finally, Eloy asks Mark to name a song, a snack, a movie, and a book to put into a time capsule to be opened in 100,000 years in the future. Do you agree with Mark’s picks? Why or why not?

    This episode of Trampled Underfoot Podcast promises to be a bumpy one! So strap yourself in, grab your pineapple, and try to hang on for the duration!

  • 135 - Hypothetical Island
    In Episode 135 of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast: Is there really such thing as nothing? Does light have weight? Eloy Escagedo and Mark Lindsay wax slightly pseudo-philosophical as they ponder the unknown. As usual, Mark digresses into the subject of Aposematism. Yes, it’s a thing! Look it up!
    The podcast suddenly takes turn toward a darker theme, as Eloy asks about survival on a hypothetical island, totally devoid of plant or animal life. In a desperate attempt to change the subject, Mark makes another movie suggestion, and Eloy reveals the fact that he finally saw a movie that has been recommended by several of his friends – The Princess Bride. Did he like it? Was it worth the hype?

  • 133 - Comfortably Dumb
    In Episode 133 of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast: Does a person’s attitude, likability, or personality change as we age, or do we maintain the same type of personality throughout our lives? Mark Lindsay has some opinions about it that might be just the opposite of what you think. Eloy Escagedo then shares his thoughts following his viewing of a video concerning a scientific round-table discussion of the Cambrian Explosion. They came to the conclusion that the math just doesn’t add up. Had enough time passed since the earth’s creation for such complex organisms to naturally evolve? Next the conversation gets into a scientific study that led to what’s become known as the Dunning-Kruger Effect. That’s a bias that states that people with low ability at a task tend to overestimate their ability. (When you hear about the case that sparked the study, you’ll be blown away.) Are we really as intelligent as we think we are, or are we all more or less just Comfortably Dumb?

    We’re confident that we'll keep you entertained in this episode of Trampled Underfoot Podcast, with your hosts, Mark Lindsay and Eloy Escagedo, but will we really? You be the judge!
