Hello and welcome to Overthink, the podcast.
Where two friends who are also professors help you think about your everyday life,
including your intuitions.
I'm Dr. Ellie Anderson.
And I'm Dr.
David Pena Guzman.
So I feel like when people talk about intuition in everyday contexts,
they say things like trust your gut.
Right.
So intuition is basically synonymous, I would venture to say,
with a gut feeling in our everyday parlance.
Thoughts.
Yeah.
And you know, sometimes people also call themselves intuitives to mean lightly psychic.
As if somehow your intuition not only gives you a gut feeling,
but also a brain feeling about the future or about other people's mental states.
I have so little patience for this.
I was just watching the new season of the Traitors,
which is like a reality TV show and it has to do with guessing.
It's like a game, a guessing game of whether somebody's a traitor or a faithful.
