The ProBoh Show

Aliens, Farts, and Dating Advice

In the first part of today’s show, we looked at calls for the Bank of England to prepare contingency plans for a potential financial crisis… in the event that aliens are confirmed to be real. Then we talked about a very real (and very strange) scientific study suggesting that sniffing your own farts could help protect your brain and even prevent Alzheimer’s disease. Today’s unpopular opinion was: Speed dating is more effective than online dating. In the second half of the show, we asked 100 humans: Name something men do to make themselves more attractive.

Movies for Phones, Love Without ‘The One’ & 33 Senses

In the first part of today's show, we looked at comments from Matt Damon suggesting that Netflix now wants movies designed to account for viewers watching on their phones. Then we talked about new research challenging what we learned in school, suggesting that humans may have up to 33 senses — not just five. Today's unpopular opinion was: There is no such thing as “The One.” In the second half of the show, we asked 100 humans: Name something people lie about on dating sites.

Space Brains, Job Pains, and Airplane Complaints

In the first part of today's show, we looked at new research showing that astronauts return to Earth with lasting brain changes, raising big questions about long-term space travel. Then we talked about how computer science, once seen as a golden ticket to a lucrative career, is now leaving many graduates struggling to find jobs. Today's unpopular opinion was: It is better to sit next to strangers on an aeroplane. In the second half of the show, we asked 100 humans: Name the worst thing about travelling by aeroplane.

Gamer Brain, Weird Teeth, and Cosmetic Procedures

In the first part of today's show, we looked at the phenomenon of “gamer brain” — that inexplicable internal drive that compels people to chase seemingly pointless goals, master absurdly complex challenges, and pursue achievements that have no real-world payoff. Why do we do it? What makes it so satisfying? We broke down the psychology behind it. Today's unpopular opinion was: Having a perfect set of white teeth looks weird. In the second half of the show, we asked 100 humans: Name a common aesthetic medical procedure. The ProBoh Show is a variety show in English, hosted by Rob Grams.

Sexless Japan, Simulated Brains, and Faking It Right

In the first part of today's show, we looked at new reports suggesting that Japanese people still aren’t having sex — and the surprising reality that nobody really knows why this trend continues. Then we talked about the groundbreaking news that scientists are gearing up to simulate an entire human brain on a supercomputer. Today's unpopular opinion was: Fake it till you make it is great advice. In the second half of the show, we asked 100 humans: What is a job you hope people aren't “faking it until they make it”?
