    Great interview on a problem that starts with we the individual and reverberates out.
    The solution starts with us and our individual choices but all the examples given are deliberate corporate driven policy that exploits our foibles.
    Elderly people are over medicated by a system that profits from lazy prescribing and depends upon chemical constraint.
    Social media is deliberately designed to act as that best friend whose bad for you.
    Addiction isn’t just A behavioural choice, it’s more often THE behavioural choice that defines a person life.

    WOW important information on a channel with almost no subscribers. I’ve seen several important channels with few viewers.

    It is far easier to destroy than to create, and much of what is labelled creativity today on closer inspection is actually destruction. Evil can look so much like Good until you finally get upon it and it turns round and you realise your mistake. "Skimmed milk masquerades as cream" W. S. Gilbert (H.M.S. Pinafore.) The best interview you have done yet Brad keep up the good work or as Winston Churchill would have said KBO Keep Buggering On!

    Great channel featuring subjects and thoughts I too think about. My suggestion for a small channel that people may not know or trust enough to invest 1 hour, is to make also some short highlights of the interviews. One does not need to 'invest' so much to watch them, and we all have limited hours. Easier then to justify watching the longer ones once the trust in quality of content has been established

    There are so many tangents to touch on, but, just to keep to the topic of social media: for a few years I was quite active on Facebook. I got off of it cold turkey back about six months ago and have had no desire to go back to it (I've been so much happier without it). But it was something I had been turning over in my mind for a few months prior to that, trying to formulate exactly what it was that was bothering me about it. What was more is that I was quite active on certain political topics.
    Now I had heard about the dopamine hits from *getting* likes on posts and comments, but what I realized was that I was getting the same effect by *hitting* the like button on posts or comments (or whatever sort of react button), as well as sometimes making comments. What I think I was doing is identifying myself with certain ideals (or against other ideals in a reactive way). Apparently I had finally gorged on this activity so much that I got sick of it. I was using it as a way to bolster my own self-image -- and I imagine that is what so many people do in social media -- it was designed for just that purpose.
