Episode 73: The Psychology of Everyday Life with Rob Ager
We move away from animal issues this time for 100 minutes of free-range conversation (excuse the pun) and accessible psychology with film analysis legend Rob Ager. This discussion actually took place face-to-face in Rob’s house in Liverpool in August, quite a rarity for podcasts nowadays, and the idea was to pool our wealth of collective knowledge and experience to offer some useful and hopefully inspiring ideas, covering both the inner and outer truth strands of this podcast. On the inner truth side, there are nods to the role of narratives in our lives, the roles we play, class & cultural issues, shame, humour, self-education, truth through disorders and keys to happiness. In terms of outer truth, we discuss among other things office politics, media narratives, 9/11 and its crisis-managed aftermath Rob also talks about his interesting background (partly through films) and we briefly touch on previous LALO topics of interest, namely Southport, Lucy Letby and the establishment’s favourite weapon against dissidents, the phrase ‘conspiracy theory’ Finally, we discuss alternative ‘New Hollywood’ 70s films and the surprising effect that dark material and our own demons can have on us Hope you enjoy it!
