Lawrence Carter-Long : Episode 16, Secret Lives of the Disabled

Professor Dan Ariely, researcher in Behavioral Economics, whose TED talks have been seen by 27 million, weighs in on his latest book release MISBELIEF: What Makes Rational People Believe Irrational Things, as host performance artist/broken neck survivor Sally Greenhouse struggles to explore the current political & psychological resonance for those with acquired physical disabilities during the Covid era, after viewing his short video online.

"When is Life Worth Living?"

Inspired by Ariely's life experience as a burn patient, surviving an explosion, combined with his  unique research focus, television show "The Irrational" starring Jesse Martin is in its second season on NBC.

NOTE: “Just the facts ma’am”  was the catchphrase attributed to the lead character, Joe Friday, of the popular 1950’s-1960’s crime television show, DRAGNET, meant to instruct a person being interviewed to state exactly what happened, without embellishment or exaggeration. Ironically, while it is remembered as the precise line, it was never spoken in this way, as subsequent versions, including satires, have demonstrated.

 Liza Grandia, PhD, is a Professor & Chair in the Dept of Native American Studies @ University of California, Davis, where she teaches both doctoral students and undergrads in an interdisciplinary program with a hemispheric focus on Indigenous peoples of the Americas.

The topic of this episode pertains to this recent work, and addresses the disabling effects of human made toxics that exist unregulated in our indoor environments and in common products that cause extreme reactivity leading to physical disability.

Retinitus Pigmentosa, an inherited eye disease that progressively narrows the visual field, affects approximately 100,000 Americans. Andrew Leland leads us through his own narrative of living with this sensory disability while exploring the meaning of sightedness/blindedness with refreshing non-binary illuminating the ways in which we see, in the most expansive sense of that word.
