Hey all. In this episode, I discuss the reasoning behind making content that suits you.

• You get to connect with people who understand you
• Your material will show you what you are able to put out
• Inclinations will surface more over time
• People can reach out to you based on your material

Thanks for checking The Armen Show, and keep it moving in your own happenings.

Robert Sapolsky, Stanford professor of biology and neurology, has written the great book “Behave” about what causes human behavior, from the most recent moments, to far back in time. I am enjoying this book thus far

In this episode is information from chapters 1 through 4 of the book, including:

• regions of the brain and their purposes
• triggers of behavior, and subtle cuing
• impacts of hormones on behavior, including testosterone and oxytocin
• stress and its impacts on learning and fear

Hope you enjoy the material in some form as I do~

Hey all – I’m back with more from the book I have been reading and am almost done with.

In this discussion of content from chapters 5 through 8, I discuss:

• scaling of organisms in relation to cities
• how cities provide economy of scale
• how the sun relates to energy requirements
• how a larger city affects the people inside it
• levels of social connections

If you like statistical information and an understanding of complex adaptive systems, the content in Scale would interest you. As well, reading anything that might interest you is a great idea. Onward we go~

Included in this discussion are:

• discussion about the power scaling laws
• metabolic rate as related to mass
• AC and DC current and how they are similar to the cardiovascular system
• elements about growth, aging, and mortality

This book has continued to be great, and I look forward to interviewing Dr. West after it is complete.
