Speaker 1: Pushkin. What could be more appetizing than a new season
Speaker 1: of the Happiness Lab. How about drinking the world's hottest
Speaker 1: hot sauce straight from the bottle. Wow, that is a
Speaker 1: large swig. Oh my god, this isn't a stunt. You're
Speaker 1: listening to the science of well being in action. Ah yeah.
Speaker 1: This season we'll be unraveling the mystery of why small
Speaker 1: doses of fear, sadness, and pain can feel good. Yollow, lightheaded,
Speaker 1: I felow, loopy, goosey. I feel like I love my job.
Speaker 1: Your glasses are fucking enough. Watch. We'll also be hitting
Speaker 1: the gym. I was the last one to finish some
Speaker 1: horrific series of running and lifting and buppies to find
Speaker 1: if it's the right place to flex our friendship muscles.
Speaker 1: And everyone stood around me clapping like shouting my name,
Speaker 1: being like you can do it, and of course in
Speaker 1: the moment, and I hated every single one of them.
Speaker 1: We'll also head back to the playground to talk about
Speaker 1: modern parenting is on a slide. I thought he was afraid. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: he was looking to me for how should I feel.
Speaker 1: Oh Mom's afraid, Oh dad's afraid. What is happening? To me.
Speaker 1: We love our kids and want them to be happy,
Speaker 1: but are we guilty of doing too much? Oh my god,
Speaker 1: if I could go back, because that was the beginning
Speaker 1: of just a decade and a half of overparenting. This
Speaker 1: season of The Happiness Lab also features the US Surgeon
Speaker 1: General Star Treks Wesley Crusher, and the person credited with
Speaker 1: coining a very famous phrase, Yeah there was a song yolo,
Speaker 1: I mean yoo the Grateful Dead's drummer Mickey Hart yoo yo.
Speaker 1: He'll explain why that you only live once philosophy doesn't
Speaker 1: work the way we think. It takes courage to go
Speaker 1: away you've never been before and do what you've never
Speaker 1: done before. Douce something and commit to it with everything
Speaker 1: you'll have, will globetrot and meet a woman whose pursuit
Speaker 1: of happiness met moving to the middle of nowhere in
Speaker 1: the depths of winter. It was the coldest I have
Speaker 1: ever been. Plus you'll still get evidence based tips and
Speaker 1: well being hacks from the greatest researchers and experts working
Speaker 1: in the fields of happiness science. I look at this
Speaker 1: pursuit of happiness a lot like a game of blackjack,
Speaker 1: and you get to stack the deck. You can have
Speaker 1: a deck full six and sevens, or you can stack
Speaker 1: that deck with aces and jacks. But I'll leave you
Speaker 1: with a question, what's your biggest regret in life? My
Speaker 1: instinct was that my early twenties with a perfect moment
Speaker 1: to broaden my horizons, experience a new culture, and take
Speaker 1: a risk. Instead, I moved to Indiana. Oh Man, I
Speaker 1: blew it. We love Indiana. By the way. The Happiness
Speaker 1: Lab with me, Doctor Laurie Santos return September sixth. Wherever
Speaker 1: you get your podcasts, miss it and you'll regret it.
