Summary

People make judgements about you the minute the lay eyes on you. This episode begins by explaining how those first impressions are determined and how to maximize your grooming and dress so people are impressed. Source: Image consultant Sherry Maysonave author of Casual Power (https://amzn.to/3ffMODA) John Cleese has been entertaining millions of people for years as a member of Monty Python, as well as a movie actor in a variety of films including Harry Potter and James Bond movies. He has also spent some time examining the creative process and wrote a book about it called Creativity: A Short and Cheerful Guide (https://amzn.to/3lKW5G7). Listen as John reveals how he creates his own special brand of humor and offers his advice on how anyone can be more creative in whatever they do. Does everything happen for a reason? People like to think so. However, maybe we are here on this earth doing what we do all as a result of a series of amazingly random events. Sean B. Carroll is an award-winning scientist, writer, film producer and author of the book A Series of Fortunate Events: Chance and the Making of the Planet, Life, and You (https://amzn.to/36IesVO). Sean joins me to reveals all the things that had to happen to bring us all to where we are today. What is laughter? Sure, we’ve all experienced it but how do you define it? And why is laughter called “the best medicine”? Listen as I explore some interesting facts about laughing that you probably haven’t heard.
