I'm prepping for deep dives!
Added 2024-04-20 10:49:01 +0000 UTCJust an update!
After four years of over-working, I finally managed to cut back on content creation (mainly on YouTube) which has freed up time for deep dives and other neglected projects (like finishing my grief book).
I'm currently prepping for the following deep dives:
Josh Powell and Elon Musk. These were the most requested topics on a recent patron poll. I'm doing these with Berto. The Josh Powell episodes will probably be published in a few weeks. I'm excited to dive into this story with him. Lots of details and of course very tragic.
Psychopathic/antisocial personality. It's weird that I've never done a deep dive on this yet. I'll probably also address sadism and other dark tetrad traits. This deep dive will probably take me months to prep for because I wanna know it all!
Limerence. For years, patrons have been asking for this one. I don't use this construct, so I'm curious what I will discover.
I also have a lot of other random shorter topics I wanna cover asap: introversion, porn addiction, pathological lying, etc.
I'm super excited for this year because (I think) I'll finally be able to take a breath and go down some psychology rabbit holes at my leisure, like the way I used to be able to do. Yesterday, I was able to enjoy a cup of coffee while sitting on my deck with the dogs. I haven't been able to do that in years. And I did it again today! I was thinking about making this a daily routine. Today I was also able to run some errands - I took my car to the car wash!
I wouldn't be able do realize my career and life goals with you being a patron. So I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

2024-04-24 18:07:59 +0000 UTCHey Kirk, have you watched baby reindeer on Netflix? It is one of the best best best shows I’ve ever watched. It’s so raw and real with emotions. I think it did such a beautiful job at conveying the complexities of sexual assault, low self esteem, childhood trauma, etc. Oh man 10/10.

2024-04-22 03:42:31 +0000 UTCThank you for working on these! Can't wait for the new deep dives. I've benefited so much from the ones you've done before, and they're my favorite part of the podcast.

2024-04-22 01:02:26 +0000 UTCHow about some deep dives on clinical mental health issues. Like adult survivors if childhood/ teen sexual abuse? I can see you need to appeal to a wider mass of people and that's why you go with the Hollywood star and starlets. When you do this please provide more information about who these people actually are. Outside a really younger group of members most of us middle-aged and older people have no idea who these Deep Dives targets are.

2024-04-20 23:00:39 +0000 UTCAhhh Kirk, it's soooo humanizing and grounding to hear you even struggle to enjoy the little things and prioritize yourself in this world the same way a lot of us do. I'm inspired by this lil peek into your life and so appreciate it! You're helping sooooo many people more than you realize 🫂 Couldn't be more excited for the content that's coming up too! Thank you for being you.

2024-04-20 20:49:29 +0000 UTCYou mentioned L.Ron Hubbard in a recent podcast. You said you heard he locked himself in an office for three days crying and raging. I was listening to and episode of Kira Swisher’s podcast “On” and a guest of hers who wrote a book about Elon said he did the exact same thing. I’d love to hear you cover that in the Elon Musk deep dive.
