Welcome again Cave Dwellers and Thank You for joining me on another episode of The Neanderthal Mind. Today we sit down with Jeremy DeSilva. Jeremy, or "Jerry" as he sometimes prefers, is an Associate Professor of Anthropology at Dartmouth College. He is a paleoanthropologist, specializing in the locomotion of the first apes and early human ancestors, (hominoids & hominins respectfully). His particular anatomical expertise-- the human foot and ankle-- has contributed to our understanding of the origins and evolution of upright walking in the human lineage. He has studied wild chimpanzees in Western Uganda and early human fossils in Museums throughout Eastern and South Africa. From 1998-2003, Jerry worked as an educator at the Boston Museum of Science and continues to be passionate about science education. He is the author of the 2021 book First Steps: How Upright Walking Made Us Human. Jerry lives in Norwich, VT with his wife Erin and their twins Ben and Josie. Dr. DeSilva has also been involved with some of the more recent, history making discoveries from Rising Star, as well as the Famous footprints of Laetoli. It was an awesome conversation and an unparalleled education for me in Neanderthal Cousins and Early Human Ancestors. So, sit back, relax and enjoy the show. I will see you on the flip side Cave Dwellers.

The Neanderthal Mind - Neurobehavioral Psychology with Dr. Paul Sambataro
play

04/01/21 • 66 min

Hello Cave Dwellers, and welcome to the first episode of the new format! I hope you didn’t miss The Neanderthal Mind too much. Thank You for tuning in to this episode with Dr. Paul Sambataro. Dr. Sambataro is a PhD in Neurobehavioral Psychology, he completed Clinical and Organizational Psychology studies with a background in Wildlife Biology, he is also a Retired School Psychologist. Dr. Sambataro is the CEO of Foo Foo Media Empire and author of multiple self-help books and texts associated with Neurobehavioral Psychology. Dr. Sambataro is the author of the Emotional Budgeting Workbooks for Adults and a Youth Version, coined the term "Emotional Budgeting" in 2001 to describe the action of training the mind to intake information and file it quickly to reduce stress and anxiety. In this episode, we discuss topics such as, Value connection between all of us, which is basically seeing the good in everyone, despite our race, sexual orientation, or beliefs. The interactions between Neanderthal and Homo Sapiens, to include the possible causes of the extinction of The Neanderthal. How an increase in caring capacity set the Homo Sapiens on the path of domination. Environmental pressures on brain evolution, behavior, interactions, and adaptation. The cognitive function of Neanderthals. How Autism and Bi-Polar designations may have been beneficial for our Neanderthal Ancestors, which seems to come up in quit a few of my interviews. We talk about the Emotional Workbook, created by Dr. Sambataro, which is set up somewhat like a Financial Budget where, what you take in and what you put out could cause an emotional deficiency in your psyche. We also get into how important it could be to your mental wellbeing, to be able to create a filing cabinet in your mind, to help you organize your emotions. Finally, we touch on Dr. Sambataro’s new media empire, Foo Foo Media. So, Cave Dwellers, sit back, relax, and enjoy the show, I will see you on the flip side

Well Cave Dwellers, there you have it, and that’s just the first part of two with Rebecca Wragg Sykes. I am on the second round of Rebecca’s book, Kindred, Neanderthal Life, Love, Death and Art. I just love how Rebecca tells a story of a day in the life of a Neanderthal, as the opening to the next chapter, it really draws the reader/listener in, and gets you ready for the next chapter. I will have links in the show notes to Rebecca’s web sites, so you can indulge in everything she has to offer. So, Cave Dwellers, I would love to hear from you about how you feel the podcast is going. Is it what you were expecting? Are there things I can do differently to make this any better? If I don’t hear from you, I can only assume that I am giving you what you want from The Neanderthal Mind. I will take all criticism that you give, and try to mold the show to your liking, but, I can’t promise I will be able to do everything, everyone wants me to do, so please, email the show at [email protected], and go to the somewhat of a web site theneanderthalmind.com, and leave me some messages.
