Summary

After television, a big part of the ad budget for fast-food restaurants’ is spent on outdoor advertising like billboards. This episode begins with the impact of that advertising and some insight into how fast-food restaurants get you to eat their food. https://www.apa.org/topics/obesity/food-advertising-children You have undoubtedly had people in your life who inspired you. What was it that made them so inspiring? What are the necessary traits of an inspiring person? How can you be more inspiring to others? That is what Adam Galinsky is here to discuss, and it is something he knows a lot about. Adam is social psychologist and Professor of Leadership and Ethics at Columbia Business School as well as the author of the book Inspire: The Universal Path for Leading Yourself and Others (https://amzn.to/3EeUYN6). Nature has a lot of rules and regulations. And those rules are what allow all the creatures and plants on earth to co-exist. We humans rely on other plants and species to do what they do to help create an environment that allows us to survive and thrive. Many of these other species we never interact with or even know about – but we are all following the rules. Here to explains these rules of how life works is Sean B. Carroll, an award-winning scientist who is vice president for science education at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and professor of molecular biology and genetics at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. He is author of the book The Serengeti Rules: The Quest to Discover How Life Works and Why It Matters (https://amzn.to/3E69uq8). What makes a relationship work? Listen to discover what 700 married couples said was most important for a long and happy relationship – and they are things that are so simple.
