    Side note. I came across Christina recently. I don't normally get into these kinds of videos. She's so cute and bubbly yet not at all ditsy. She was in prison for a felony close to twenty years ago. She's living a good life now. She's also a grandma.

    Any Grandma who looks that good gets a little extra leeway, imo.

    This case quite drastically affected the gun laws in Australia.

    Forced her for $15,000. That must have been quite a battle.

    I quit watching Grande a while back. He absolutely excoriated the 'be in the moment' pop psych guy. Tolle, I think? For all of his popularity, Tolle labored away in obscurity for many years, so not exactly a depraved money grubbing, applause junkie, imo. And Tolle definitely reworked a lot of his platitudes from work that was already out there, but that's hardly a red flag of a conman.

    His criticism of Tolle, who is a gentle soul was vicious, like beating a hedgehog to death with a shovel. That was it for me. His take on David Fravor and other pilot's ufo sightings struck me as being completely blinkered. He is steeped in an outmoded scientific status quo. Plus, his 'humor' about the events is strange, like he did the entire thing for clicks. Not a good look.

    I also get the strong sense that he has zero emotional empathy but plenty of cognitive empathy. His take on some of his subjects is insightful but also dry and dogmatic. In other words if you want Spock as a therapist, it might work. He is actually an excellent diagnostician, but one on one, I would find him hard to take. He helped me understand psychopathy, narcissism and other cluster b types, though. He excels at that.

    Just looking at the title (my speakers are out of commission at the moment) I would say that even the most obtuse of individuals can pretend to have a clue. I think there are at least 1 million examples in this case.

    I did not listen to his vid about Tolle but it sounds like a bad choice for a topic for him.

    Dr. Todd recently made a rather lame jab at psychics working with police to investigate. His attitude was dismissive. I don't know much about the topic but if police precincts are using them, there must be some advantage or return or they'd stop.

    I heard a psychic recently talking about how they help police with missing persons and other cases. That called to mind Dr. Todd's comments. A psychologist can't really take psychics seriously as a professional, so he should just refrain from commentary, imo. His humor isn't strong enough to pull off some of his jokes.

    He says he's learned 5 things in 50 years, most of them doing social influencer work. Why am I not surprised by that. He learned nothing throughout his training in becoming 'Dr.' Grande. That was about all I could take ...

    Interesting ... This kid started forming these ideas when essentially pre-verbal? sure all kids start fantasizing about dying in fiery plane crashes as toddlers. Grande doesn't even entertain the obvious strangeness of the phenomena.

    He just took another dive (crash) in my rating book. In another post, I remarked the only thing I truly despised were authoritarians, well, I lied. I'm not sure which I despise more, the aforementioned or professional skeptics. I think I understand why he was such a failure as a counselor. He has absolutely no imagination, not of necessity a marker for psychopathy but perhaps that will be included in the next version of the DSM.
