"The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances.  If there is any reaction, both are transformed." - Carl Jung



Our guest on the show today is here by way of a coincidental airplane seating.  Psychiatrist, author, theorist, and researcher of Seasonal Affective Disorder Dr. Norman Rosenthal just so happened to sit next to Jay on a plane recently and through their deep discussion we now have Dr. Norm here to chat about a litany of different topics.  Jay and Dr. Norm discuss Dr. Norm's journey into his many areas of expertise, the research surrounding light and it's affects on the human body, and even a foray into poetry and the power that it has to portray the deepest levels of the mind.  Dr. Norm is a fascinating man, so please enjoy this discussion on The Culture Matters Podcast.
