“While listening to this podcast and thinking over the words, I couldn’t help but be surprised that an ordinary person, someone whose a husband, whose a doctor nonetheless was psychopathic. It really put a whole twist on the old phrase of ‘not everything is what it seems.’ It seemed to be centered towards everyone and no one at the same time. Surely, we are not looking to see who or who cannot be a psychopath in our daily lives but hearing how People function with it and how even people can somewhat live normal lives gives the human mind a sense of comfort that ‘Oh, if I have this then I’m not dangerous.’ I don’t think it’s the case of having something that is led to being dangerous, more so it is what we do with ourselves. James Fallon brought his own brother to a cave where he could have been killed however he did warn him not to touch the ground (though it doesn’t excuse his lack of care for quite literally bringing his own flesh and blood into a death trap).
I believe the information is up to date—to a very certain extent. Of course, as of the present, we can’t have a sure conclusion that every person with psychopathy turns out to be a murderer or simply a non-caring person who goes through life like Dr.James Fallon does.
It was very interesting, at least to me. Hearing him talk about it and his experiences sucked me into it. Human beings are often interested by things that they assure themselves can never happen to them or by things they already have believed are happening to them. In my case, it’s both. Sometimes I feel like caring and acting nice is exhausting yet other times I am ready to give encouragement and heartfelt words to a friend in need. It is entertaining because it makes the brain wonder and it makes the brain think. Being a writer also has its perks as I find the podcast interesting and it leads me to wonder about making a character or even a book based around Psychopathy.
I’m giving it four stars only because it was so interesting to hear. I was drawn into it and felt immersed in hearing more. Thank you for having us listen to it!”
