Why Do People Litter? Social Scum Part 222 Aug 202600:12:27

In this episode, I unpack the psychological and situational factors that apparently drive this behaviour, and decide what psychologists' give in answers may in itself belong in the bin as unsatisfactory.

Subjects: scum, littering, psychology, strong emotions, passing spitfires, Ven diagram

What is Gaslighting? Social Scum Part 121 Aug 202600:10:10

This one has had me confused or uncertain in the past (ed; that's ironic given what it means!) and so it is time for me to clear it up. I hope this helps you, as well as it does for me? But that is the point of the podcast after all.

Ep021 Man Chat 2 with Robert Sickler. Those damned moments when the World around loses perspective.21 Sep 202001:31:17

So life over the last few weeks, or moreover those who oppose actual life and its true purpose have been getting under my skin and distracting my personal production. Time for a break and a talk. An anything goes discussion with nothing planned. What do we need to get off our chest? What can we do when we start to feel like the only ones? Only hope seems to be the only verbalisation we can find. Robert is a learned mind and a soul of many journeys. I find his outlook different and at the same time useful.

The Social Telephone Connection Reset30 Jul 202600:08:11

I'm tired of being the One. Not in a Matrix or Premiership winning manager sense, but being the start point. I have begun a personal experiment of ceasing to initiate contact with others to observe who reaches out to me, revealing insights about relationships and the effort involved in maintaining them. The emotional weight of communication and the impact of technology on social activity is also expressed by me, in hopefully a polite, yet thinly vailed vexed manner.

The Future Experiment Part 128 Jul 202600:11:26

I want to know I have achieved something with myself and so first base should be, I believe, improving self and my circumstances, my situations and fundamentally my point of view.

Keywords: mental health, goal setting, personal development, emotional progress, self-improvement, tracking progress, spiritual growth, productivity, mindfulness, motivation, Angry Men with Phones.

Dumped by Facebook Dating?16 Jul 202600:07:59

In this episode I share my experiences and frustrations with online dating, particularly through Facebook dating. I discusses the addictive nature of dating apps, my lack of success, and the challenges of making genuine connections.

This is what the AI on my Podcast platform said "James humorously contemplates the idea of giving up on dating apps altogether and explores alternative methods of meeting people, including the outdated concept of pen pals and the absurdity of dating on professional platforms like LinkedIn." AI spots humour?

Daily Steps. Listening on the Sofa Will Never be the Same Again07 Jul 202600:06:31

Despite the "progress" of Man I continually get vexed by the modern society need to reinvent the Wheel. So many things are packaged in new and "exciting" ways but they go by other simpler names and simpler methods from years ago when they were also cheaper.

Daily Steps. Is Democracy a Dumb Idea?07 Jul 202600:08:02

Another tool of the establishment called Nigel has resigned as an MP only to run for election again for the very same job. I personally am sick of this pantomime. Aren't you?

I question the concept of democracy because it clearly does not work or is it not meant to?

Daily Steps. SILENCE!04 Jul 202600:05:37

Embrace Silence when feeling failure: for me it is both a blanket and a punishment stick. In a world filled with constant noise and distractions, many people find it hard to embrace silence, I think they may yearn it. Silence can be a powerful tool for reflection, creativity, and emotional growth. This exploration is inspired by my own failure to click on the right bloody button! If you have nothing good to say then don't say anything at all.

Brains on Trains Are Different to Those on Planes19 Aug 202600:12:37

In this episode I read the psychological factors influencing travel preferences, particularly the preference for train travel over flying. I delve into how personal experiences, mindfulness, and personality traits shape these choices, emphasizing the journey's value and the emotional benefits of train travel. Well sometimes, the emotional trauma of many a UK urban train journey can scar one for life, so obviously approach the concept with caution.

Keywords: travel preferences, train travel, psychology, mindfulness, personality traits, emotional well-being, environmental values, journey experience, self-determination theory, attention restoration theory, shopping trolleys

Daily Steps. Does Beauty Enrich or Drain Your Life?02 Jul 202600:07:27

As a counter to a prior episode I look at the subject of beauty. We crave it, want, need it, hate it. It's almost up there with the age old villains of society like sex and money (it's no doubt involved in both).

Daily Steps. Ugliness is a Judgement, Not a Truth01 Jul 202600:09:56

In a world that often equates beauty with worth, the concept of ugliness can feel heavy and burdensome. It stops me going out and taking up social opportunity, but what does it truly mean to be ugly? In this episode, I dive into its definitions, societal implications, and the power of perception.
