- Episode: 173. How Important Is Your Choice of Words? | No Stupid Questions
Podcast: No Stupid QuestionsYou know, one of the things that some readers took from Thinking, Fast and Slow was the idea that priming was really important. But what then happened after Daniel Kahneman published Thinking, Fast and Slow was that there was a huge controversy about whether it was true.

This fundamental issue persists in our field, which necessitates a lot of work to resolve.

- Episode: Why Your Projects Are Always Late — and What to Do About It | Freakonomics Radio | Episode 323
Podcast: Freakonomics RadioRight, well, my thinking on this has been guided by a distinction drawn by Kahneman and Tversky between two types of thinking: one being an inside approach and the other being an outside approach. The inside approach involves really focusing on the case at hand and trying to work out the details of that unique case.

- Episode: Do Dreams Actually Mean Anything? | No Stupid Questions | Episode 59
Podcast: No Stupid QuestionsAnd as you've taught us all here via Danny Kahneman, I guess we do have this appetite for coherence, right? This is one of my major take-homes from Danny Kahneman. I know everyone thinks about thinking fast and slow and judgment decision-making and biases and heuristics, but I think one of his core insights is that human beings have certain fundamental limited patience and inclinations; one of them is this need to create causal narratives and for there to be coherence, and we hate having the opposite of that, which is a sense of dissonance, things not adding up.

- Episode: Max Tegmark on Why Superhuman Artificial Intelligence Won’t be Our Slave | Episode 52
Podcast: People I (Mostly) AdmireIf you read Kahneman with System One and System Two, it's very clear that you want to use your System Two, your deliberative reasoning thinking, to decide your diet before you go to the supermarket rather than just impulse buying random things that come in front of you because you always shop hungry or something like that.
