Richard Lettieri Ph.D; forensic neuropsychologist, psychoanalyst and author joins Mike for an in-depth discussion of his field of work, the human condition and his new book; Decoding Madness!

In more detail, Richard begins by explaining why & how he wrote his book, his experience over the last few decades working in the fields of neuropsychology and psychiatry, as well as being an expert witness for countless court cases, before he talks about the term “daimonic” and how it is a reflection of many aspects of human nature. Richard also talks about the wide variety of individuals he’s spoken with in his line of work, whether or not some people are just “broken”, some of his influences (including Sigmund Freud), how his psychoanalytical knowledge affects his everyday life and more – be warned, there are some fairly graphic examples in this conversation!

In the last episode of GCC, number 145, Mike was joined by JAC, Megan & Ria for a massive discussion on the 9 episodes of the Star Wars anime anthology series; Visions!

If you don’t succeed, that doesn’t mean you’re a failure. Jarrod Speed returns to GCC to continue talking about his experience of attempting a world record attempt by doing an obstacle course at the top of the highest mountain in Africa, as well as confirming the many challenges along the way and what’s in store for him going forward!

This week is part 2 of the conversation and the duo discuss how Jarrod dealt with his mountain journey and what it means for him going forward, the duo then discuss comparisons in Jarrod’s adventure to movies & video games before Jarrod talks about the other people who climbed Mount Kilimanjaro with him who have inspired him (including ultra-marathon runners, mountain climbers & philanthropists). The conversation ends with Jarrod going into more depth of his mindset going forward including utilising the Japanese term Kaizen, some Wim Hof influence and more!

In case you missed it, last week in part 1, Jarrod confirms why he decided to climb Mount Kilimanjaro and goes through his journey up to the summit which includes his run-in with Acute Mountain Sickness (vomiting, brain swelling & etc) plus other difficulties he ran into when climbing up the mountain, as well as some of the issues people who joined him had. Part 1 ends with Jarrod looking to the future of what he wants to achieve over the coming years.
