Hey Deservant listeners, this is the Psychology in Seattle Podcast.

0:04.2

I'm your host.

0:04.9

I'm your host, Dr. Kirkconda, I'm a therapist and a professor.

0:08.1

My name is Umberto Castaneda and I orchestrate fake moon landings.

0:11.8

We are now at 2018 and Elon Musk started

0:16.3

dating Grimes, a Canadian musician. She has an interesting personality, meaning that she is known for being interesting and quirky.

0:27.0

Quirky.

0:28.0

She at the time was 30, Elon Musk was 47, a 17 year difference, so an even larger difference than his previous relationship.

0:38.4

But she's also older than the previous one, right? So, right? So it was like, yeah. The age bracket was moving up but the gap was growing. Yeah and yeah of

0:47.4

course people will claim that this is automatically abusive and

0:52.4

exploitative the research does not is there wasn't exploitation. It just means that just looking at the age difference

1:04.7

is not a firm indication of something. There's a lot to say about his relationship

1:09.9

relationship, but none of it had enough relevance to his personality that

1:19.3

would cause me to get rid of other bullet points.

1:23.2

So another thing that I want to talk about from 2018

1:26.0

is that he sent an email out to Tesla employees

1:30.9

about meetings. He wanted people to do the following and we talked about this on the

1:37.3

podcast at the time because I actually really liked this and I was already at this place. When he said this I wasn't like, oh, that's a good idea. I was like, yeah, I learned how to do this a long time ago and I felt like I was a weird person at my university for this.

1:56.5

Number one he said leave unproductive meetings just stand up and walk out you know feel free to be polite if you want but don't bother if you don't want to or it's not convenient. So for me absolutely I mean this would be pretty extreme. Yeah, but it was something I did regularly during the pandemic when we would have meetings over Zoom.

2:20.0

Sure. Even if there was only four people in the meeting, but especially if there was like 60 people in the meeting, 20 minutes in, 45 minutes in, I'm thinking, this is just another one of those meetings that's going nowhere.

2:32.0

And if there was some big bullet point
