Does a podcast ever release a take you disagree with so strongly it makes you question everything you heard on it up to that point

They discuss the concept of Norwegian "slow TV", which could be anything from 10 hours of a train ride to 15 hours on a boating and fishing trip. No narrative. No plotline. Just calm, slow TV.

Bloganuary 5: Do You Spend More Time Thinking About the Future or the Past & Why?

I hope this was informative, helpful or at the very least fun for you to read.

I find this to be a slightly tricky question, because there’s lots of advice against overly considering either the future or the past. Too much focus on either one means you aren’t present enough in the present. Mindfulness is all about living in the moment, not yearning for something different to have happened or for your situation to be different than its current state. The History of…

invisibilia is the first podcast i ever listened to. i had my eyes dilated and had nothing to do all day so i decided to give podcasts a try, and i fell in love. it had just started so there were only four or five episodes. i still think about the one about the man who was paralyzed for years but was completely aware of everything around him who taught himself to communicate because he hated barney so much. i haven't listened in years, but i decided to check back in today and saw it got canceled due to budget at NPR. i listened to their lovely and heartfelt goodbye episode, and i'm so sad and angry. we prioritize all the wrong things in this dumb society.

Do you listen to Connor Goldsmith’s Cerebro podcast?

No, sorry

Being in a cult is like being in a bad marriage. Understanding the dynamics of attachment styles can give some clarity – and helpful for normal relationships too!

Hi I'm back having now watched the episode and oh my god it has been a very very long time since an episode of TV made me this emotional - i don't cry in general but this came very *very* close. Also no one I know is watching it so I hope it's fine that I'm just ranting in your inbox XD

I know you said it was good and emotional and yet it was even more than I expected?!? I think what is striking me so strongly about Brilliant Minds is that you can feel that everyone in the room just /cares/ so much about the characters and the stories they're telling? There's a tenderness underlying all of the character beats we've seen so far, from Oliver to the interns (Dana and her backstory especially comes to mind) and now to John Doe. Having that whole storyline expand over multiple episodes, building up anticipation, finallly meeting him (and oh the dialogues! Playing chess with Dana! Thanking Jacob! Aaaaah). I also really love and appreciate how they've addressed assisted dying, the ethical and emotional quandries that come with it, how your medical team might react to that... So so good. (On another note, I don't know if you're much of a podcast listener, but the very first Invisibilia episode deals with another Locked In syndrom patient - with a happier ending, though - and I couldn't stop thinking about it throughout the episode)

Honestly unsure how they're going to continue/top that in the following episodes, but I'm just so glad I'm along for the ride.

hiii, i'm glad you enjoyed it, i was trying hard not to give away just how mindblowingly good it was agxvgss

as you said, you can just tell that the creators and the writers and the actors and everyone cares a lot for the show, but they are also just there to have fun and it frees them up creatively, i mean i think that much is visible on the show and in the bts stuff they post!

but the show goes out of its way to humanise people with neurological and mental disorders instead of just magically fixing them up and sending them on their way, which is frankly so rare and even rarer to have it this well done. actually, i couldn't really bring up another example at all.

the way they broached the topic and the way they handled it was amazing. i mean... this person was locked in and he had someone who would've cared for him until the end of both their lives, doctors who cared about his wellbeing, his quality of life and him receiving help and love and they all cared enough to respect his wishes and let him die in a peaceful manner anyway, where he was surrounded by people who cared for him, who went out of their way to make it a genuinely good experience (as good as dying can be a good experience, anyway).

clearly my mind is blown, but all that and the way they shown the interactions between Roman and his boyfriend and the interns and Wolf and Carol and just... it was beautiful, painful and skillful storytelling.

it was everything i never knew i needed to see on television.

and i agree, i absolutely love how they just drop some info-nuggets and then let them be, until they expand on them in later episodes, be it the backstory of the interns or Wolf or any of the patients, they don't rush things that don't need to be rushed and get things done quickly to make a point when that serves the narrative better (the latter be more at play in the next episode, but no spoilers).

(also i don't know that podcast, but it does sound interesting for sure!)

in any case, i don't mind that you went long cuz so did i and this episode and this show certainly deserve the attention, so i think it speaks for itself how invested we both are agxvsgs

i'm glad you enjoyed it and thank you for sharing your thoughts with me <333

Quae sunt tria angula veritatis?

Ratio, qua nos discutimus. Affectus, quo aliis miseremur. Puritas, qua ad invisibilia sublevamur.

Quali sono i tre angoli della verità?

La ragione, per mezzo della quale esaminiamo noi stessi. L'amore, per mezzo del quale abbiamo compassione delle sofferenze altrui. La purezza, per mezzo della quale siamo elevati verso le cose invisibili.

That’s what I thought too. Yet, before I’d discovered this episode and that Norway had absorbed this concept into their regular programming, I’ve watched countless "voiceover"-less cooking vlogs, like Hanse’s channel.

Invisibilia has been an all-time favourite podcast of mine, and their new season has been amazing. This specific episode goes in the exact opposite direction of the stories they usually tell.

The news that @npr is laying off the Invisibilia, Rough Translation, and Louder than a Riot teams is absolutely baffling to me. This is the rare kind of media that has national reach and public radio backing and they’re just going to cut it? Cut it when these conversations are needed the most? BFFR
