- Check out Hilary's tattoo! ->
Time: 1:52:28
This time, we discuss taking action to change your mood, then we have a fiery debate about tattoos!
We start with chick flicks, lab rats, Hilary's new job and the old TV show, "thirtysomething." We move on to driving in Seattle, jaywalking tickets, Hilary's driving, Edward T's horn-honking and his new job news - which is not as exciting as it sounds.
Edward T then relates another dating debacle. No motorcycle guy this time.
In our own now-classic form, the podcast spins on itself when Edward T notices Hilary's tattoo and an argument breaks out about tattoos and their purpose in our lives. As you can imagine, Hilary is down with tattoos and Edward T, the resident misanthrope, is definitely not. Who wins? Find out.
Finally, in the Science Minute, Hilary introduces us to her favorite part of the brain, the Amygdala (amygdalae), wherein lies four of our favorite friends – desire, fear, pleasure and rage. These primal emotions can assist with learning by associating these feelings with thoughts. Say what? It's true! Check it out!!
