How We Talk to Ourselves

In the season finale of How Humans Talk, Rune Pedersen turns the microphone inward to explore one of the most personal forms of communication: how we talk to ourselves. From spirals of doubt to pep talk, inner monologues shape our sense of self and how we move through the world. Psychologist Dr. Chris Cheers helps untangle the threads of self-talk, rumination, and childhood schemas, revealing how our internal narratives can support or sabotage us. Rune also speaks with Corinne Ooms from Alone Australia, who recounts the profound shift in her self-perception after spending seventy days in complete isolation. And poet Thabani Tshuma invites us into the transformative space of language and recovery, where self-talk becomes both survival and art. Together, they explore how changing the voice in your head can change everything.

How Voice Actors Talk

In this episode of How Humans Talk, Rune wants to understand how some people make words leap off a page, and into our ears. Rune dives into the world of professional voice acting with voice coach and voice actor Abbe Holmes, who has spent decades helping people turn flat scripts into vibrant, believable performances. Together, they explore how voice actors bring life to language - from manipulating pitch and rhythm to working with (or against) clunky copy. Abbe explains how authenticity is often crafted, not spontaneous, and why the difference between sounding “real” and reading aloud is all in the breath, pauses, and intention. You’ll hear how voice acting plays with trust and emotion, how actors fix poor writing mid-performance, and why sounding natural takes more skill than it seems.
