  • SYSK Choice: Completely Control Your Time & Perfect Health for Your Pet

    It just happens that sometimes you have to ask a stranger for a favor. Perhaps you need to borrow their phone or help you carry something. And there is one proven way that will greatly increase the chances they will grant you that favor. I begin this episode by telling you what it is. http://www.medicaldaily.com/likeability-trustworthy-how-be-popular-377296

    Your time is precious. So how you mange, control and perceive the time you have is critical. Time, performance and productivity expert Steven Griffith, author of the book The Time Cleanse (https://amzn.to/2HMoHhU) has a really interesting take on controlling your time so it works for you rather than feel that you don’t have enough time to do what is really important to you.

    It would seem that online dating sites would be good at matching people based on the data profile. But there is one big flaw in that data. Listen as I tell you what it is and why dating sites can actually make it more difficult to find love. http://www.psychologicalscience.org/index.php/news/releases/grading-the-online dating-industry.html

    People often treat their pets as a member of the family. That can be trouble. Dogs and cats are not people and really shouldn’t be treated – or fed – like a person. Veterinarian Dr. Karen Halligan author of the book Doc Halligan’s What Every Pet Owner Should Know (https://amzn.to/2WtrAaI) joins me to offer sound advice that will help your pet live a long and healthy life. She also has some warnings on things not to do that could put your pet in danger.

  • What Are You Afraid of and Why? & Communication Strategies To Make You Influential

    Ask people what their favorite number is and you will get a lot of different answers. But if you ask thousands of people, one number emerges as the clear winner? This episode begins with what that number is and why so many people like it and consider it lucky. Source: Alex Bellos author of Here’s Looking at Euclid (https://amzn.to/3wgjt3z) 

    What are you afraid of? Spiders? The dark? Public speaking? We are all afraid of something at some time - and that feeling of fear can be very powerful. Where does fear come from? Why are some people more afraid than others? What can you do if a fear is in the way of living your life? Listen to my guest Eva Holland. She is a writer who had some very strong fears that were holding her back. She decided to tackle the topic and look at the research about fear to help herself and to also write a book called Nerve: Adventures in the Science of Fear (https://amzn.to/3pK2rrW). Listen as she offers some great insight and advice about the things that make you afraid.   

    Although you communicate with others throughout the day, you are likely not using all the skills available to improve your ability to speak, influence and persuade others.

Listen as David joins me to explain some of these skills that you can easily use to make you more influential and better able to speak with others.

  • Why You Deceive Yourself and How That’s a Good Thing & The Science of Flirting

    Remember when we all started using reusable grocery bags and there was a big concern about germs and bacteria in those bags? You don’t hear so much about this anymore - so is it still a big concern? This episode begins with a discussion on just how clean those bags are and how clean they should be. https://www.tasteofhome.com/article/how-clean-are-your-reusable-shopping-bags-the-truth-will-shock-you/

    We all deceive ourselves all the time. We tell ourselves stories about how great we are or how great are children are, how skilled or smart we are. It turns out that self-deception serves a very important purpose in our ability to navigate and negotiate through life according to Shankar Vedantam author of the book Useful Delusions: The Power and Paradox of the Self-Deceiving Brain (https://amzn.to/3gfTNgI). Listen as Shankar explains this fascinating quirk of human behavior and how to make the most of our own self-deception.

Listen as she explains what flirting is exactly and most importantly, how to do it well. Her website is www.Flirtology.com

  • Desire: Why You Want What You Want & How Evolution Made You Who You Are

    Hold a strand of spaghetti at each end and break it in 2. It cannot be done. And this puzzle has mystified great minds of science including Nobel prize winner Richard Feynman. Now there appears to be an explanation which I’ll tell you at the beginning of this episode. https://www.thenakedscientists.com/get-naked/experiments/snapping-spaghetti

    You have a lot of desires. Have you ever wondered why you desire those things? Why do you want what you want? Joining me with an explanation is Luke Burgis. He is an entrepreneur and a philosopher and he has written a book about desire titled, Wanting (https://amzn.to/3fPJyR9) that offers insight into what triggers out desires - big and small. 

    Have you ever asked yourself - if we evolved from apes, why are there still apes? That’s one of the several confusing questions about evolution tackled by my guest Marlene Zuk. She is an evolutionary biologist and author of the book Paleofantasy: What Evolution Really Tells Us about Sex, Diet, and How We Live (https://amzn.to/3uUyd6H). If you ever wondered how we evolved to be who and where we are - you need to listen. 

    When a child gets hurt, how you respond in words and actions is critically important.

  • SYSK Choice: Optimize Your Memory & How to Get the Love You Want

    Have you heard the advice that couples should have a date night. That’s common advice to help keep the romance alive in long term relationships. But interestingly, “couple time” is not the highest quality time couples can have. In fact it doesn’t even come in second. Listen as I explain another way couples can spend their time that is much more beneficial and rewarding. https://www.businessinsider.com/double-dates-improve-relationship-2018-2

    Do you know how to make your memory work to your advantage? If you have ever had your memory fail at exactly the wrong time, listen to my guest Michael Tipper, author of the book Instant Recall (https://amzn.to/2X00YPv). Michael won the silver medal in the World Memory Championship by remembering 9 decks of playing cards in order! He joins me to offer some excellent techniques to help you understand and use your memory to your best advantage.

    You know that little front pocket that sits inside the big front pocket on blue jeans? Do you know why it is there and what it is for? The idea for that pocket came from Levi Strauss and when you listen you will hear what the original intended use was – which by the way is pretty much obsolete today. http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/what-that-little-pocket-in-your-jeansis-really-for-a6828141.html

    There are a lot of people in relationships who are not getting what they want from their partner. Why is that? What happens in relationships that results in that seemingly inevitable path of negativity, criticism and conflict – and how do you fix it? Harville Hendrix has been working with couples for a long time to help them break free from the negativity that so often takes over in long term relationships. Harville is a practicing therapist and author of several books including the newly revised version of Getting the Love You Want (https://amzn.to/2IbSbXq) which was a huge bestseller when it first came out several years ago. He joins me to reveal what causes relationships to go off-track and how to instantly change how couples interact so the negativity stops.

  • How to Stop Worrying, Be Confident and Make Friends & The Power of Awe and Wonder

    Has it ever happened that your cellphone rang or buzzed but when you checked it had not? It was a phantom ring. This episode begins with an explanation as to why that happens to a lot of us. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20130701-why-you-feel-phantom-phone-calls

    Here are three fairly common concerns of people:

    • They worry too much

    • They don’t have enough confidence

    • They wish they had more friends

    Listen to Helen Thomsen a writer and consultant who is author of This Book Could Fix Your Life. (https://amzn.to/3p2oERA). Helen looked at the substantial research into these and other human issues and joins me to discuss strategies to help, if these are things you would like to improve in your life.

    You know what it feels like to be in awe. It’s that feeling when you first see the Grand Canyon or when you see your child for the first time after being born - that’s awe! It turns out that creating that feeling of awe is fairly easy and when you create that feeling it is actually good for your health and happiness. Allen Klein, author of The Book of Awe (https://amzn.to/3wGSwWh) explains how to capture that sense of awe and wonder in your everyday life and reveals the research that shows the benefits.

  • The Hidden Price of Bargain Shopping & How to Stop a Common Cause of Illness

    A kiss is so much more than just a kiss. It turns out kissing sends messages to the person you are kissing. This episode begins with some interesting facts about what kissing does, the messages it sends and why men and women tend to prefer different kinds of kisses. https://www.msn.com/en-us/lifestyle/relationships/20-things-you-never-knew-about-kissing/ss-AA3gtBD

    Who doesn’t love a bargain? However always looking for the best deal or the lowest price may not be the best buying strategy. There is a cost to chasing the lowest prices according to Ellen Ruppel Shell, a writer for the Atlantic magazine and author of the book, Cheap: The High Cost of Discount Culture (https://amzn.to/2NKHeLe). Anyone who bought something on sale but then never wore it or used it needs to hear this.

    Why do kids get the entire summer off? The myth has been that it started back when kids lived mostly on farms and took the summer off to help bring in the crops. But the crop harvest in the fall when kids are back in school – so that can’t be it. I’ll explain the real reason. http://mentalfloss.com/article/56901/why-do-students-get-summers

    Have you heard that gum disease can lead to heart attacks? How can that be – what’s the connection? It’s true and the answer is inflammation. Dr. Duke Johnson, author of the book, Optimal Health (http://a.co/6Semfv9) explains how inflammation in the body is linked to chronic diseases – and more importantly what you can do about it.
