Episode notes

There's no evidence to suggest that your brain will somehow magically create the events, you know. It's dangerous because if you project this version of what you want and then you find it doesn't happen, you're going to be really disappointed. Instead, it's probably better to have the stoic approach, which is to understand that to an extent, there will be times when you're unhappy and times when you suffer. There won't necessarily be a happy ending, you know, and so you've got to try and appreciate the things that you have and live in the moment.

[Part 2 of 2] Since recording part 1 of this conversation, Antony caught COVID-19 and lost a bit of weight, but he managed to talk for about 100 minutes here about more topics he has previously covered in episodes of his podcast "Life & Life Only". Here we discuss diverse things including the extraordinary feats of endurance by David Blaine🕴🏻, food and dieting 🍔, Stanley Kubrik's film "The Shining" 🪓, the term "conspiracy theory" 🤫, the ways that comedy shows can reveal the truth 🎭, and the complex art of happiness 🙂.
