If getting wound up about weird topics was a profession, I'd be rolling in money 💰 As it turns out, it isn't, so the best I could hope for is being a good source of entertainment 🗣

“Sorry, I forgot to respond to the email you sent me out of hours!”
We all lie. Whether you’re embezzling a boring story to make it funny, blatantly fabricating excuses for ignoring annoying colleagues or doing it without realising, research has shown adults lie a minimum of 2x a day.
(That’s not even accounting for the tiny white lies!)
So, why do we lie?
There’s no definitive technique or technology to deduce lies, and if there was, we’d probably all be in BIG trouble.
However, there are a multitude of reasons why we are so bad at detecting lies, why we lie and how lying can change even our neuropsychology.
Also discussed:
- How lying is a fundamental part of child development
- Why we’re so bad at detecting lies, particularly because we want and expect the truth from others
- The bullshit ‘cues’ people cite as signs of lying and why they are flawed
- Our capacity for dishonesty, including the primary categories of lies and why we use them
- A bit of research mingled with my own moronic musings on lying, and why lying isn’t necessarily always a bad thing
Food for thought…
If you say you’re not a liar, you’ve even tricked yourself….
Lucky you, you’ve landed on Just Don’t Get Me Started, the podcast that is taking on society one rant at a time.
Laugh at or with host, Grace Hall, as she attempts to battle through Salford’s intense background noise, her own procrastination and her tendency to pick up new hobbies and drop them immediately to entertain you (a little).
Just Don’t Get Me Started is sometimes informed, always humorous, and is centred around bringing entertainment through topics that matter.
If you want to receive a very loving message to your inbox, please do forward the podcast on social media, subscribe on whichever platform it is you love to listen on or just shout from the rooftops about it, because your neighbours should be as annoyed with you as you are with them.
