He's not lecturing anymore,
but he stills makes educational content/series . He has 3 scientific series (
The Power of Reason,
Rational Mind and
In Depth) and 4 fitness series (
Exercise Anatomy,
A week of workouts,
Workout theory,
Strength science). This man truly is the epitome of "
a healthy mind in a healthy body". These shows are basically
Patreon funded, so you can support him there if you'd like (he also does monthly live streams for patrons). As an "appetizer", here's
the first episode of The Power of Reason. Pay attention to Dr. Boselli, everyone: the class is in session!

Here's the "
Gorilla Experiment" he mentioned (reference:
The Invisible Gorilla ):
Also, here's a good reference about the
representativeness heuristic (
The Decision Lab also has a section dedicated just to
cognitive biases), and an
article about the "Linda, the bank teller" case (the reference is
Tversky and Kahneman (1983) ) .
One thing he mentioned in passing (but it's important to highlight):
intuitive thinking (snap judgement) isn't always bad, since there are times you just need to make a decision quickly (certain survival situations, for example), and in those cases rational thinking isn't an option (since it requires time). Another thing he didn't mention is that avoiding the
conjunction fallacy (recognizing that less restrictive statements have higher probability) is pretty much what leads to
Occam's razor (a hypothesis with fewer assumptions is more likely to be correct), which is a principle that guides scientific thinking.
Oh, and was it just me or did anyone else think about "washboard abs" when he said the word "wash" at 12:46? I guess that is also an example of the representativeness heuristic, because my mind was "primed to the idea" (13:35) of washboard abs because I was looking at him the whole time

And I guess it should be obvious by now, but it still deserves a statement: damn, what a brain!
