Episode description

The Counterintuitive Boys of Comedy™ question our assumptions about seemingly ordinary decisions.

What happens when you nearly get burned to death?  Do you think you would have some questions about life?


That is exactly what happened to Dan Ariely at a young age… And from it spawned some interesting, nuanced questions about human perception.


Why do we spend money in ways that don’t meet our long-term goals?  What primes us to cheat and steal?  What motivates us beyond financial transactions?  And most importantly, how do you make a prostate exam more comfortable?  


You don’t have to wait until the Mind Under Matter Campout to get the jazz version.  You can listen to The CBC™ riff on some of the predictably irrational ways our minds work on Spotify, YouTube or anywhere you podcast for 200% off the low, low price of free.  Get in on this once-in-a-lifetime deal while it lasts!
