Why You’re In A Rut: The Need for Novelty


Listen Later

In this episode, we talk about feeling dead inside! 😃 And about being introverts, social distancing, getting out of a rut, and what all of this has to do with evolution. If you want to laugh at folks who are still social distancing and wearing masks in indoor public spaces, boy have we got the episode for you!
Topics include:

the TV shows Yellowstone, 1883, and 1923



the sexual and non-sexual meaning of “rut”



feeling resistance to getting out of a rut



the connection between variety and well-being



the famous Rat Park experiments on addiction



what our own Teeny Tiny experiments in variety have looked like so far



how our desire for variety comes from the same place as the drives for food and sex



why it makes spiritual sense for variety to feel good
