Episode notes

Nina: There was a genre of episode where someone's soul would leave their body and then transfer to a new body. And I noticed that during this transformation, some of the person's mental traits would get transferred over,. But they wouldn't necessarily bring all the memories. So if you could actually kind of view the soul, right? is our representation at a kind of a folk level of the self at its very pith. You know, like pith in vinegar.

The guest we've been waiting for--Nina Strohminger--joins us to talk about the connection between disgust and humor, cheap laughs, moral character and personal identity, and the British opt-in plan for porn. Plus: how psychologists measure erections and Dave goes Platonist about the form of hilarity. Tamler's daughter should have issued an extra strong disclaimer for this one.
