Topics
Mike Carruthers: 本段讨论了宠物卫生问题,特别是狗舔脸和吃主人盘子里的食物的卫生隐患,并引用新的研究表明,狗的唾液可能携带抗生素耐药性超级细菌。 Aaron Ahuvia: 本段探讨了人们对物品和活动的“爱”,认为这种爱并非虚假的,而是与人际关系中的爱有共通之处,它能帮助人们塑造自我认同,并连接人与人之间的关系。 Ahuvia教授的研究表明,人们对物品的爱通常与这些物品的优秀品质以及它们在个人生活中的意义相关联。他区分了“爱”与“物质主义”,指出前者是通过与物品互动和投入创造性劳动而产生的,而后者则寄希望于物品本身就能改变自身。 Sheila Buff: 本段主要讨论了导致死亡的常见原因以及如何预防。Buff指出,人们往往会关注一些不太可能导致死亡的风险,而忽略了那些可以预防的慢性疾病。她还强调了家庭意外事故,特别是跌倒,是导致死亡的重要原因,并建议人们采取措施预防,例如防滑处理地面,移除绊脚石等。此外,她还讨论了交通事故、癌症、传染病等导致死亡的原因,以及如何通过安全驾驶、健康饮食、定期体检等方式降低死亡风险。 Mike Carruthers: 本段总结了寻找爱情的建议,特别是对于离婚后再次寻找爱情的人。心理学家Terry Orbuch的研究表明,放下过去,积极参与社交活动,例如网络交友、参加定期聚会等,是再次找到爱情的关键。

When people say they love their house or car or shoes – is that really love? Can you love inanimate things? Possibly, according to Aaron Ahuvia, professor of marketing at the University of Michigan who is the most widely published and often cited expert on non-interpersonal love. Listen as he reveals what we really mean when we speak of loving objects and activities. Aaron is author of a book titled The Things We Love (https://amzn.to/3z4992k))

Have you ever thought when you get to the end of your life, what it is that finally kills you? It’s worth thinking about because if you understand what is most likely to kill you, you can prevent or at least postpone it from happening. That’s according to Sheila Buff author of the book You Bet Your Life: Your Guide to Deadly Risk (https://amzn.to/3ARYZ6b)). Listen as Shelia reveals the most common and not-so-common ways people die – and why. And maybe how we can sidestep those things and live a bit longer.

Finding true love isn’t easy. And finding true love the second or third time around can seem impossible. Don’t give up hope. Instead, listen as I explain what one psychologist says can help you find true love one more time. Source: Finding Love Again by Dr. Terry Orbuch (https://amzn.to/3z0xiH4))
