Speaker 1: Hey there, folks. In this episode, you probably know which
Speaker 1: of the five love languages is your language. You probably
Speaker 1: also know what your attachment style is, and there's a
Speaker 1: good chance you've used the results of those to determine
Speaker 1: what type of person you want to be in a relationship,
Speaker 1: and it might guide you in your current relationship. But
Speaker 1: get this, those aren't the test you should be using.
Speaker 1: There's another one out there, the sixteen Personalities test. And
Speaker 1: do you know if you're a debater, a commander, a mediator,
Speaker 1: a virtuoso, or one of the other personalities You need
Speaker 1: to because your relationship might be suffering if you don't
Speaker 1: hang with that. Welcome to this episode of Amy and
Speaker 1: TJ Robes. You are into these things in a major way.
Speaker 1: I don't get them necessarily.
Speaker 2: I love all of these tests because not only does
Speaker 2: it help you understand yourself, but it also helps you
Speaker 2: understand your partner, maybe even people you work with or friends,
Speaker 2: and you can understand it they're coming at problems, conflicts,
Speaker 2: or even fun from a different place.
Speaker 1: So it makes you handle that person better. It makes you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, when you understand them, I think you can relate
Speaker 2: to them and you maybe don't take things so personally.
Speaker 2: I think that's one of the problems people get into
Speaker 2: when they get into disagreements or any kind of conflict,
Speaker 2: is that you take things personally, but if you actually
Speaker 2: are understanding it actually is about them and it has
Speaker 2: nothing to do with you, it helps you process everything.
Speaker 1: Can I ask this though, are some of these, like
Speaker 1: the love languages attachment style, do they tell you when
Speaker 1: you do these things that you're more compatible with this
Speaker 1: love language?
Speaker 2: They do?
Speaker 1: Really, I don't.
Speaker 2: The love language is just about understanding what your partner
Speaker 2: needs and wants to feel loved, So that's a little
Speaker 2: bit different, but definitely like you can look and see
Speaker 2: who you are more compatible with based on some of
Speaker 2: these different tests. And the personality test is actually from
Speaker 2: I think people might and have heard of the Briggs
Speaker 2: Meyers personality test. It's based on that. I remember I
Speaker 2: had to take the test twenty some years ago when
Speaker 2: I was interviewing for a news station in Hartford, Connecticut,
Speaker 2: and I thought it was so strange that they had
Speaker 2: me take a personality test, but they really wanted to
Speaker 2: see who they were bringing into the newsroom and if
Speaker 2: that personality would fit with the others.
Speaker 1: See, is there not a danger in that, right, you're
Speaker 1: missing out on something if you stick to if someone
Speaker 1: is dating right now, even my attachment style is this,
Speaker 1: and their attachment style is that, and this is telling
Speaker 1: me I'm not as compatible with this type of attachment style.
Speaker 1: Wouldn't that guide you in some arbitrary way and maybe
Speaker 1: just be a little too much of a caution to
Speaker 1: be taken. I feel like it just helped.
Speaker 2: If you can look at it as that, it helps
Speaker 2: you understand I think that might be better. And you know,
Speaker 2: shouldn't be advice to do that too, But.
Speaker 1: Should it be advised? I looked used to look at
Speaker 1: horscopes every single morning time, but it didn't guide my day.
Speaker 2: We just had fun with it. We would send each
Speaker 2: other each other's horsecopes because, by the way, because our
Speaker 2: signs are compatible, so it made sense Aquarius and Leos.
Speaker 3: Yes, So that's why I actually was cool.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't want to be looking at my horoscope if
Speaker 2: it said we weren't compatible, then I would be like,
Speaker 2: that's that's nonsense.
Speaker 1: Do you remember your love language?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 2: My love language absolutely, yes, Well I have usually of
Speaker 2: two physical touch and quality time.
Speaker 1: You've told me several times and it made sense every
Speaker 1: time which.
Speaker 2: One was I Yours is quality time, and that's what
Speaker 2: it means.
Speaker 3: You also like gifts?
Speaker 1: But yes, okay, so I.
Speaker 2: Like all of the all of them too. But if
Speaker 2: you just ranked them, what would be your top? My
Speaker 2: top would be physical touch.
Speaker 1: Okay, So this the sixteen personalities tests, and again there
Speaker 1: are again I listed some of them off the top.
Speaker 1: A campaigner, I don't exactly know what that is, but
Speaker 1: they list them, the command or mediator of virtuoso, all
Speaker 1: these things. But it's supposed to tell you about yourself.
Speaker 1: It's supposed to help you. And this thing, from what
Speaker 1: I can tell, has been not just thrown together some
Speaker 1: random survey online. This has been done and based on
Speaker 1: research and theories and history of psychology.
Speaker 2: It's science based, no question about it. So this is exciting.
Speaker 2: I have no idea what I'm going to be.
Speaker 3: Do you know what it might be?
Speaker 1: Clue? But I think a big part of the Zany
Speaker 1: was telling us our producer here that a lot of
Speaker 1: it is going to talk about you being an introvert
Speaker 1: or an extrovert, which is a very big part, a
Speaker 1: very big key. I think the very foundations of psychology
Speaker 1: and this type of work used to first put people
Speaker 1: in just you have to start with those two categories.
Speaker 1: You're either this or either you know what you are? Oh,
Speaker 1: I'm an introvert one hundred percent. Oh absolutely, you know
Speaker 1: that I do.
Speaker 2: It's I don't think people would think that when they
Speaker 2: see you on television or even hear you in the podcast.
Speaker 2: But you, I know you are in social settings one
Speaker 2: hundred percent an introvert on the street.
Speaker 1: Walking down the street. You I look like I might
Speaker 1: be the life of the party. Nope, I want everybody
Speaker 1: to get away from me and leaving afe. I want
Speaker 1: to go home as a game.
Speaker 3: Everybody but me.
Speaker 1: No, that's true. But you're an extrovert. No, no, you're
Speaker 1: an extra you want that's We are very different in
Speaker 1: that way, and there have been time you look over
Speaker 1: across the room. I'm sitting there and happy. Nobody needs
Speaker 1: to come check on me. I'm fine that we are
Speaker 1: so different in that way. Yes, but there is something
Speaker 1: I learned. You can be something in the middle. I
Speaker 1: didn't an ambrovert. Whoa yes?
Speaker 3: And what an amber alert is?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 1: Don't dude, Okay, mister Walsh's apologies, and they call it
Speaker 1: amber version, right, there's introversion extraversion, and there's amber version,
Speaker 1: which falls in the middle. People can have them both.
Speaker 1: I am curious if the test will tell me I
Speaker 1: falled into that category. But there's nothing introvert about you.
Speaker 1: I don't think.
Speaker 3: I don't think so either.
Speaker 1: I don't think. But yes, we were excited about the
Speaker 1: test so well. To be honest, the one in the
Speaker 1: room who's the most excited about it was our super
Speaker 1: producer Andy. He's really got into this. It tells you
Speaker 1: online that it can only it will only take you
Speaker 1: ten minutes to take the test. He said, what the hell?
Speaker 1: It took me half an hour because he took it
Speaker 1: seriously and he is fascinated by these things. So he
Speaker 1: got us on board. It's gonna give us the test.
Speaker 1: Now we're gonna get We give him our answers. He
Speaker 1: is going to do the calculations and then we will
Speaker 1: find out altogether what our personality is.
Speaker 2: Yes, Diamond's going to do Diamond our producers also in
Speaker 2: the studio. Diamond is going to take mine down. Andy's
Speaker 2: going to take yours down, and then they're going to
Speaker 2: say what we are and anyone listening follow along and
Speaker 2: feel free to take the test. While we're taking the test,
Speaker 2: it might be fun to do it that way.
Speaker 3: Just a suggestion, And are.
Speaker 1: You fire away?
Speaker 5: All right?
Speaker 1: How many questions?
Speaker 5: By the way, I could not tell you like I said,
Speaker 5: It took me thirty minutes. But I am an ian FJ.
Speaker 5: So that's my personality.
Speaker 3: What does that mean?
Speaker 1: What's the I'm a.
Speaker 5: Protagonist, so I'm extroverted, uh, intuitive feeling and judging. I
Speaker 5: don't remember what the JA was, but the judging doesn't
Speaker 5: sound like me. Need to recheck that.
Speaker 1: And the point that there's some of this we're going
Speaker 1: to have to explain ourselves. But it does. It has
Speaker 1: a very detailed breakdown you. It'll tell you you're a
Speaker 1: well some anything, an architect, but then it goes into
Speaker 1: very specific details.
Speaker 3: I can't wait.
Speaker 1: Oh my goods. All right, so let's go in.
Speaker 5: All right. You regularly make new friends agree, somewhat agree,
Speaker 5: semi agree, or neutral.
Speaker 2: Okay, and that all works with the disagree to so
Speaker 2: strongly agree for.
Speaker 1: Me, strongly disagree, all right?
Speaker 5: Question two, Complex and novel ideas excite you more than
Speaker 5: simple and straightforward ones.
Speaker 1: Strongly disagree Excite me more, Excite me more, Excite me more,
Speaker 1: I am I somewhat agree on.
Speaker 5: That perfect next question. Usually feel more persuaded by what
Speaker 5: resonates emotionally with you than by factual arguments.

Speaker 3: I'm going to go with semi agree.
Speaker 1: Semi stop. Your facts backs.

Speaker 2: You're gonna get judge on yours?
Speaker 1: What are you going to take?
Speaker 3: I am doing it.
Speaker 1: I don't seem to be taking this seriously.
Speaker 5: This next one. I feel like I could already put
Speaker 5: strongly agree for TJ. But their living and working spaces
Speaker 5: are clean and organized. Strongly agree, strongly agree, all right.
Speaker 5: You usually stay calm even under a lot of pressure.

Speaker 1: Strongly agree, absolutely strongly agree.
Speaker 5: Even a small mistake can cause you to doubt your

Speaker 5: Even a small mistake can cause you to doubt your
Speaker 5: overall abilities and knowledge.

Speaker 5: find interesting and striking up a conversation.
Speaker 1: Yeah, hell no, that's stronglyay. Sorry, no, I can do it,

Speaker 5: You feel comfortable just walking up to someone you find
Speaker 5: interesting and striking up a conversation?
Speaker 1: Okay, comfortable doing it? I don't have a desire doing it.

Speaker 5: of creative works.
Speaker 3: I would say somewhat agree.

Speaker 1: me take my test.
Speaker 3: I just made a hand gesture, that's all.
Speaker 1: You want to tell them what the gesture was, because
Speaker 1: their minds are.
Speaker 3: For you to say strongly or three.
Speaker 1: I do strongly agree.
Speaker 3: But will you say it again, because I think I'm

Speaker 5: of action.
Speaker 3: I would say strongly disagree.
Speaker 1: I strongly agree. Wait a minute, I should say somewhat
Speaker 1: because I don't just dismiss how somebody else might feel
Speaker 1: about something.
Speaker 3: So you're changing your answer to somewhat agree.
Speaker 1: I have to some way agree, But you said disagree. Wow,
Speaker 1: because I value people's emotions.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if I see somebody, like even if I know
Speaker 2: I should probably tell them something, if I feel that

Speaker 1: rather have the seven.
Speaker 2: Yes, I don't like being I don't like doing activities
Speaker 2: by myself. The only thing I like to do by

Speaker 2: the house before I leave, because I hate coming home
Speaker 2: to a messy house, And I might be a couple
Speaker 2: of minutes late because I know that that's important to me.
Speaker 5: In disagreements, you prioritize proving your point over preserving the
Speaker 5: feelings of others.
Speaker 1: Preserving the feeling. No, prioritize I don't need to prove
Speaker 1: a point. No, no, no, preserving the feelings no. I semi
Speaker 1: disagree with that.
Speaker 3: I somewhat disagree.
Speaker 5: You usually wait for others to introduce themselves at first,
Speaker 5: at social gatherings.

Speaker 2: But just out of practice, No, strongly disagree, I'll introduce myself.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I never wait for somebody to introduce themselves. I

Speaker 5: You are more likely to rely on emotional intuition than
Speaker 5: logical reasoning when making a choice.
Speaker 3: Disagree with that, I would say, semi agree.

Speaker 2: have the results of the test that we just took.
Speaker 5: You.
Speaker 1: No, I don't know if we appreciate they were putting
Speaker 1: this together while we were taking the break and looking
Speaker 1: at the results. They're over there getting giddy and laughing
Speaker 1: like school children in the back of the class.
Speaker 2: And before that, I'm not even kidding, Andy's jaw dropped
Speaker 2: like he actually dropped his john and said, this is juicy.
Speaker 2: So we have no idea what wow, this test or
