27:30 “The point really is: ... the brain is trapped in a dark, silent box” - “... the way you know something is important: every time someone discovers it, they give it a new name”
Amazing. Great conversation and perspective on the brain. I would ask why Western Civ, especially the Protestant version of it, dislikes emotion so much.
I agree. I have to admit I am a huge fan of hers as I followed her for probably the last 5+ years. Amazingly insightful and she stands her ground because her as she shares her findings
The guest communicates in an annoyingly self-promotional way, as opposed to the manner a relaxed scholar. That may be a manner she picked up to compete professionally, I don't know. It's a bit grating. Some concepts are good. But meh...
She's a brain scientist maybe that's why she's perceived like that. I think she knows better than us how the brain works, it's her job, she does human brain research in her lab on how the brain works. I'm not saying she's 100th right but if you really listen most of what she says makes sense. Of course she is speaking about her book because it's kind of revolutionary on how we thought about the emotions and the brain
Maybe the predictive process helps explain hallucinations? Since the human mind doesn't deal with reality directly anyway, hallucinations have room to corrupt the predictive process.
What about communication before the development of language. It was most likely very complex use of facial expression and gestures. How can use use words to explain the complexity of this form of communicating and understanding the world?
Absolutely love episodes like these! One thing; is there anything you can do about the static noise in the background? I love to throw you up on my surround sound (might as well use it if I have it, i guess haha) and it often gets pretty loud. Obviously the content is free and you're doing this out of the very limited time you already have, so it is only a suggestion :) Keep it up!!!!!
Interesting stuff. Yes I also wonder what kind of brains that is running the world these days. Brains that doesn't ask questions? Could it be stress that make that kind of situation?
Dr Feldman Barrett is an amazing and important neuroscientist that is truly a treasure. Sean Carrol introduction was shameful. He mischaracterized what she’s shared in the book and spoke like he knew more than she did. Decades of research and he suggests that her points are merely an opinion or point of view - really? He sounds foolish trying to act like an expert on a subject while interviewing the foremost authority on that subject.
Mindscape is such a great podcast, Sean does a wonderful job of conveying complex ideas to the layman, and remains unbaised in every conversation I've heard. He deserves more views and subs.

Did she say something is wrong with brains that aren't neuotypical incl neurodiverse

Awesome work. 👍
You're one of the true reflections of Richard Feynman! It's my dream to meet with you Sean Carroll!

What an amazing ending statement!
Thanks for this interesting episode!
You do an amazing job of making knowledge available to all of us. I'm very grateful Mr. Carroll.
And you're in jazz club and someone says bird
Such a great interview. Much more enjoyable than Lex's verbal diaria he calls a podcast.
Atleast learn to spell 'diarrhoea' right before you go on trolling someone probably intellectually better than you.
curious how this relates to dementia.
