This is because we ended up recording in two sessions and then cutting some of our later conversation into places earlier in the episode where they made more sense. The transitions are not perfect, but we hope they are not too jarring.\xa0\xa0\nThe Joker - Steve Miller Band\nSophie's World by Jostein Gaarder\nAbstract of Mehrabian & Ferris' 1967 article\nCommunication is 93% Nonverbal: An Urban Legend Proliferates\nTL; DR: Essentially, the results of a 1967 study by Dr. Mehrabian at UCLA has been oversimplified and misrepresented in later articles, textbooks, and media.
