Show Notes

Time blindness isn't laziness or rudeness. It's real, and Chalene Johnson has the brain scan to prove it. She's been chronically late, always has been a struggle, and it turns out there's actual science behind it (ADHD researcher Dr. Russell Barkley calls it temporal myopia). Chalene breaks down why some brains just can't estimate time, including her own scan at the Amen Clinic next to her husband Bret's, and why she missed her flight to Dallas last week. Plus, Patrick Clancy is heading to 60 Minutes this Sunday with his new wife, Rachel, and Chalene gets into why a case like this (or the plastic surgeon on trial in California) can drag on for years. Topics discussed: time blindness, ADHD, temporal myopia, Dr. Russell Barkley, delay aversion, Edmund Sonuga-Barke, Amen Clinic, Bret Johnson, hyperfocus, cognitive dissonance, Lindsay Clancy, Patrick Clancy, Rachel, 60 Minutes, Penelope.
