I really love the show.. The amount of banter is excellent. It would be great to have an episode on how to work on emotional maturity

Hi! Fantastic listen as always. You know...one of the more interesting things you could do while Psychological people watching is try to guess their MBTI. Recall how (who was it?) was saying something during the episode about trying to guess what a person's next actions are going to be or what their reaction to something someone else says or does will be? Well, having an idea of what a person's MBTI type is can go a long way in providing a lot of guidance towards making sort of informed guesses, if you will. For example, a person who is xxFP will be more given to exaggerated emotional responses/reactions than say...an xxTJ. Also, ESxx's are more likely to turn out to be on the olive-finger crew. Stuff like that. I personally find it immensely entertaining, especially with the more tricky to type folks #Ambiverts, who can be very 49-51 on a particular trait. Definitely poses a more interesting challenge than just passively observing and/or picking up behavioural cues and "mands", I prom

Hi! As usual, great content. I really enjoyed listening to it and gained quite a lot of insight (even though as an avid "stan" of the MBTI, i kept getting triggered by how borderline dismissive a lot of "facts" presented were. I had to keep repeating to myself over and over "These are TWO PhD's. They know what they're talking about. Lol) I just wanted to add that more than just getting a "Type" at the end of the test that one can then go on to identify themselves as moving forward, one of the biggest (if not The) benefits of the MBTI is the community. As a millennial and having being "misunderstood" be the order of the day, finding a community of persons who share SO many veryyy similar characteristics/behaviours is such an unbelievably heartwarming experience. Getting to interact with them, whether directly in like chat rooms/groups/reddit (and ofcourse memes!!!) can quite literally be the only thing that gets you through some trying moments/days.
