Sunday Jan 19, 2020
In this episode, Daniel and Bennett discuss the annoying aspects of being adults and paying taxes, Daniel Does Science (!), and we have a lengthy talk about personality psychology and the Myers Briggs Typology Indicator (MBTI).
Note: Due to a recording problem, Daniel's audio ends at about 1:11:15. Sorry about that. The remaining discussion is left in, despite it being one-sided, just in case the information Bennett mentions is interesting, even though his jokes don't make sense in isolation.

In this episode, Daniel introduces "Bennett Tries Trending," where he presents a popular topic that Bennett has inevitably never heard of for his thoughts. This time, it's the Yoni Egg, featured in a particular Youtube video that has unfortunately since been removed. Also, we examine more superpowers and drawbacks, the relationship between happiness and meaning, and more.

Saturday Jan 11, 2020
Welcome to the Third Space Podcast! This episode will give a brief introduction to Bennett, Daniel, and the content of the podcast. While this intro is semi-scripted, the full episodes are unscripted and much longer. Each episode contains one or more main topics, undoubtedly some winding tangents, and a few silly recurring segments here and there. Feel free to start at any episode (though Bennett has a special fondness for episode 4, Of Dreams and the Mind's Eye, to start). Please enjoy!
