  • Smoking Seagulls and the Law of Unintended Consequences

    Smoking Seagulls and the Law of Unintended Consequences
    May 22 2024

    The law of unintended consequences applies in some surprising ways, like when you study the behaviour of the super-rich and it leads to getting seagulls hooked on tobacco. It's strange, but true. And quite amusing.

    The only university that makes you chuckle AND learn at the same time.

  • Why Bad Ideas Can Be Good For You

    Why Bad Ideas Can Be Good For You
    May 15 2024

    When everyone is telling you that your idea is a bad one, should you keep pursuing it? Most people would think not, but as this short drama shows, sometimes it can be good for you and lead to a better idea. It's counter-intuitive but worth thinking about. Mario writes popular musicals but has a passion for turning The Exorcist into a musical. Bad idea, right? He finds out why in his own way.

  • If Trump isn't Jesus, is he Santa Claus?

    If Trump isn't Jesus, is he Santa Claus?
    May 8 2024

    Some people believe that Donald Trump is either the Second Coming of Jesus or a Jesus-like figure worthy of worship. What if he's actually Santa Claus? There's research that shows how some children, when they stop believing in Santa, experience an emotional gap in their lives so they're always seeking a new magical figure to believe in - and along comes DJT!
