What is the coffee cup test in job interviews?

Job interviews have always been a daunting prospect for a number of reasons. And the process is only getting more time-consuming for candidates, without offering increased chances of success. According to a June 2023 report from the Josh Bersin Company and AMS, the average recruitment process now take a whopping 44 days. As if all this isn’t demanding enough, interviewers like to throw in the occasional curveball too when meeting candidates. One such example is the coffee cup test, which gained attention in 2019 after a man called Trent Innes, then Managing Director of Xero Australia, appeared on The Venture Podcast with Lambros Photios to discuss his hiring strategy. Why are we talking about it in 2023 then? Why is there a growing emphasis on soft skills in the workplace? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Why is Disney becoming unpopular?

The Walt Disney Company is celebrating its centenary this October, but the prevailing mood is far from festive. That’s because Disney's image is taking a hit. In May 2023, Axios-Harris placed it 77th for reputation in a ranking of America’s 100 most visible companies. When you consider that it had figured 4th on that same list as recently as 2019, the impact is clear. On that front, it's not doing too shabbily. Mickey Mouse remains one of the world's most iconic characters, and Disney, with its movies, theme parks, and streaming services, continues to be an integral part of many Westerners' lives. Is Disney's brand still powerful then? What’s really behind the fall in popularity then? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Faux self-care: are we being fooled by the wellness industry?

You’ve probably seen the ads for products and services that promise to make you happier, healthier, and more fulfilled. Things like journals, air purifiers, crystal jewellery, and of course, bubble baths. These are all examples of what some experts call ‘faux self-care’: the idea that we can buy our way out of stress, burnout, and depression. It’s also based on the idea that we are responsible for our own wellbeing, and that we shouldn’t expect or demand care from others. This is especially true for women, who are often expected to juggle multiple roles and responsibilities without complaining or asking for help. But does faux self-care really work, or does it make us feel worse in the long run? And how can we practise real self-care? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Why do some people confuse their left and right?

Knowing the difference between right and left is crucial for various daily activities like driving and navigation. While most of us take this skill for granted, a significant portion of the population faces challenges with it. A study published in 2020 in the Journal of Experimental Psychology estimated that one in six adults struggles to distinguish their right from their left. Of course, if you turn the wrong way when out in the street, it can be a minor inconvenience. You might get lost, or turn up late for an appointment for example. But in some cases, confusing left and right can be a matter of life and death. It might sound unlikely, but all too many times, surgery has been carried out on the wrong side of a patient’s body due to human error, with tragic consequences. And back in 2010 it emerged that the sinking of the Titanic may have actually been caused by a left-right steering error. So, how does this actually work? Now, why is this such a challenge?

Why did the man who invented the lobotomy win a Nobel Prize?

In 1949, neurologist Egas Moniz reached the pinnacle of his career when he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine. He received this honor for what is now known as a lobotomy, though at the time it was referred to as leucotomy, "for its therapeutic value in certain psychoses." This controversial medical procedure, widely used in the 1940s, was later deemed barbaric and eventually banned in the 1980s. However, the legacy of this Nobel Prize is now under considerable scrutiny, with many critics calling for its revocation. The Nobel Foundation, on the other hand, stands firm, asserting that Egas Moniz's name will remain among the laureates. But what exactly is a lobotomy? So, in what historical context did this practice emerge? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions! To listen to the last episodes, you can click here: What is reverse ageing?

Is binge drinking over in the UK?

Binge drinking is defined as consuming 5 or more drinks for a man, or 4 or more drinks for a woman, in about 2 hours, and the UK has a rather notorious reputation for drinking to excess, especially when abroad. But according to a 2022 survey from Drinkaware, 26 % so nearly a third of 16 to 24-year-olds in the UK are now completely teetotal, meaning they do not drink at all. Add to this that 29% of pub visits and 37% of restaurant visits are also alcohol free. While the non-alcoholic beverage market has grown over 506 % since 2015 and it is pretty clear that sobriety or at least being "sober curious" a search term that actually peaked in 2021 following the pandemic might be the new normal in the UK. So could binge drinking be a thing of the past? What else has caused this change? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

How long does love last according to science?

We’ve talked about love and relationships in a number of previous episodes of Do You Really Know. You may remember we’ve discussed the secrets to a long-lasting relationship, and the triangular theory of love for example. But despite lovey dovey representations of romance in films, a lot of people say that love doesn’t last forever. Some people say it’s limited to three years max for example. So what does science have to say on the matter then? Why wouldn’t love be the same three months and three years into a relationship then? Does genetics have any role to play?

What is reverse ageing?

In 2021, American multi-millionaire Bryan Johnson began his Project Blueprint. Then 43, his stated aim was to restore his body and organs to the state of an eighteen-year-old. To do this, he follows an extreme fitness program and a strict diet, and takes a whole host of medicines and supplements, not to mention undergoing an organ operation every year. All of this costs around $2M per year. His team of doctors say that the results are promising, but other medical experts are more skeptical.  Haven't we always wanted to slow down the ageing process?

Could Turmeric help indigestion?

Turmeric is a plant that belongs to the ginger family. It has a bright yellow-orange color, and a bitter and peppery taste. The main active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin, a compound that has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. One of the conditions that turmeric may help with is indigestion which can be caused by various factors, such as stress, overeating, alcohol, medications, or underlying diseases. However, one of the main causes is excess stomach acid, which can irritate the lining of the stomach and the esophagus causing symptoms such as stomach pain, bloating, nausea, and heartburn. But what if there was a natural alternative to drugs? So, should you start taking tumeric? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

What is an oil shock?

The day Russian forces invaded Ukraine in February 2022, the price of crude oil surged over the $100 a barrel mark for the first time since 2014. Soon, economic sanctions would be announced against Russia, with buyers shunning exports from the world’s third largest oil producing country. For over a century, oil has been both a fuel and a barometer for the world economy. But it can also be a double-edged sword as Western countries found out in the 1970s. At the start of the 1970s, the post-war boom was coming to an end. From 1971 onwards, things started going downhill, and oil ended up being at the heart of an unprecedented economic and geopolitical crisis. How did the 1973 crisis come around?

Why do we get screen apnea?

It’s pretty common knowledge that office workers across the world have a sedentary lifestyle, which is linked with a whole host of potential health problems. But did you know that most of us also unconsciously hold our breath when staring into an electronic screen? The phenomenon was discovered by former Microsoft executive Linda Stone back in 2008, who named it email apnea. While she did a lot of breathing exercises at home, she realised those went out the window when she was in front of her computer screen looking through her emails. Fast forward to the 2020s and it’s not just emails that cause us to hold our breath. Laptops and smartphones are now part of our everyday lives, meaning we spend more time than ever before using electronic devices. What’s going on in our bodies when this happens?

What is kalsarikännit?

Regular listeners will be familiar with a number of Scandinavian lifestyle trends by now, given we’ve discussed the likes of Denmark’s hygge, Sweden’s lagom and Norway’s friluftsliv on the show in the past. Today, we’re going to talk about a custom from Finland which has gained international recognition in recent years. Kalsarikännit is made up of two Finnish words: “kalsari", which means "underwear" and "kännit", which means "getting drunk’. An odd combination, you might be thinking. Put them together and what do you get? The term actually refers to the tradition of getting tipsy at home alone.  It has also been loosely translated and anglicised into the word “pantsdrunk”. How did it get to be so popular? Isn’t drinking alone at home kind of sad? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

What are lucid dreams?

Lucid dreams are dreams in which you become aware that you are dreaming while you are dreaming. This means that you can recognise that the events and characters in your dream are not real, and that you are actually asleep in your bed. Some people can even control their dreams to some extent, and shape them according to their wishes. Imagine being able to fly, visit exotic places, or meet your favourite celebrities in your dreams.  But how do lucid dreams happen? And why would you want to have lucid dreams?

Is it bad to drink water with a meal?

It's often said that drinking water while eating can make the stomach swell, causing bloating. But in reality, there are no studies to back that up. Similarly, drinking or avoiding drinking while eating also has no impact on the effectiveness of digestive juices or on any supposed difficulty in secreting them and therefore on digestion. We know that that water helps soften food boluses being digested by the body. A bolus is a ball-like mixture of food and saliva that forms in the mouth when we chew. Water also has the advantage of curbing hunger, thereby regulating our appetite.  What do we know for sure about drinking water with meals? When is the best time of day to drink water?

Are Skyr yoghurts really good for you?

If you've ever strolled down the dairy aisle of your local grocery store, chances are you've come across these little tubs of Icelandic goodness. Skyr yoghurt has really grown in popularity in the last five to ten years. But is it really as healthy as it’s touted to be, or is its reputation down to marketing hype?  It's a traditional Icelandic yogurt, which is said to have been brought to Iceland by the Vikings when they settled there over a thousand years ago. It's marketed as a yoghurt, but is in fact technically a soft cheese. Skyr's uniqueness lies in its manufacturing process, which gives it that thick and creamy texture, similar to fresh cheese.

How can I influence my dreams?

How our brains work during dreams is as fascinating as it is mysterious. Dreams can be hard to predict, and sometimes of course we end up having nightmares. Wouldn’t it be nice to have some control over what happens in our dreams? Well, as it turns out it may actually be possible to some extent. Well controlling dreams fully is a bit of a stretch. But according to neuroscience researchers from the universities of Freiburg and Tübingen in Germany, simply listening to an audiobook just before falling asleep is enough to have a significant impact on our dreams.

What is mansplaining?

Have you ever noticed a man explaining something to a woman in a supremely confident way which suggests he absolutely knows more than her about the subject? Well, there’s a term for that, which is mansplaining. A recent thread on parenting forum Mumsnet invited women to share their worst examples of mansplaining. Among them were patronising explanations of the offside rule, a gas man telling a qualified engineer to wait for her partner to get home so he could tell him how to fix the boiler rather than her and a male doctor telling a pregnant woman not to worry as C-sections aren’t painful!

Why do some people sleep with their mouths open?

Let’s be honest, sleeping with an open mouth isn’t the most graceful of images, but in reality it’s pretty common. If you’ve ever woken up with a dry mouth or a puddle of drool on your pillow, maybe it happened to you. One of the reasons is because the muscles in our face stay tense throughout the day, but relax when we go to sleep. People sleep with their mouths open when they breathe through their mouths, and there are actually a number of reasons why that happens! Is it not just down to gravity then?

What is the soft evening concept from Tiktok?

Do you ever feel frustrated about work dominating your life? Maybe in your free time, you try to make up for that by enjoying yourself and having a busy social life. You go to the cinema, fit in a workout and so on. But these activities sometimes end up putting more pressure on you than the pleasure you get out of them. What if I told you you could have a thoroughly satisfying evening, without it needing to be productive at all? Over on Tiktok, a concept called “soft evenings” has emerged to combat society’s obsession with hyperproductivity and hustle culture. What does it involve? How do I get started then?

How does pollution affect my mental health?

According to the government, air pollution is the “largest environmental risk to public health”, and accounts for between 28,000 and 36,000 deaths each year. But did you know that the air you breathe might be impacting not only your physical health but also your mental well-being? It's the largest environmental risk to public health because harmful pollutants like fine particulate matter, ammonia and nitrogen dioxide get into our bodies, affecting the eyes, nose and throat, heart and blood vessels and the respiratory system. But there are also risks regarding our mental health. A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association in February 2023 reported on the link between air pollution and psychological disorders. What did the study find?

What is Hugh Jackman’s 85% rule?

You may know Hugh Jackman as the star of X-Men, The Greatest Showman, and Les Misérables, but did you know that he has a secret to success that involves working less, not more? That’s right, Hugh Jackman follows the 85% rule, an unofficial guide to life that says we should try hard at things, but not too hard. In other words, we should aim to work at 85% of our capacity, rather than 100%. But why would he do that, and does it really work? Does the science back up this claim?

What is burnout?

In January 2021, the European Parliament approved a “right to disconnect” policy which passed relatively unnoticed in the midst of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. This resolution recognises workers rights to switch off outside of working hours, in order to protect their mental health, wellbeing and private lives. A Eurofound survey estimated that one third of all workers were working remotely last year. Since the pandemic, a sedentary and “always-on” lifestyle has become the norm for many. While remote work clearly has some advantages, staying connected and available around the clock can have negative effects. These include anxiety, depression or even a burnout.

What is the Werther effect?

In April 2023, Bloomberg.com published an article entitled "Tiktok’s Algorithm Keeps Pushing Suicide to Vulnerable Kids” in which it explained that Tiktok was facing a “flood of lawsuits” due to teen suicides that the victims’ parents blamed on the social media company. So if a user interacts with or views suicide-related content, even out of curiosity, the algorithm may suggest more of such material, potentially increasing negative thoughts and contributing to a concerning cycle of exposure. It’s comparable to a phenomenon that was observed in the late 20th century, known as the Werther effect. Another name for it is copycat suicide. Where does the name come from?

How can I overcome my fear of speaking in public?

According to a study conducted by the Statistic Brain Research Institute in 2016, 74% of the global population feels uncomfortable speaking in front of an audience. That might be an oral exam at school, a presentation at work, or even making a toast at a birthday party for example. The symptoms are often the same: sweaty palms, shortness of breath and a racing heart. You may feel like you’re frozen! The level of anxiety can range from light nervousness to total panic.

Is it bad to drink coffee after 4pm?

According to the British Coffee Association, we drink around 98 million cups of coffee per day in the UK. That’s around one and a half cups for every single person in the country! It’s said that drinking coffee in the evening or even late afternoon has a negative impact on sleep quality, but a lot of people do so anyway. Coffee contains various molecules, such as antioxidants and caffeine, which has a psychostimulant effect and is therefore behind the links to disrupting sleep.

How do you explain intuition?

We've all experienced those gut feelings, hunches, or flashes of insight that seem to come from nowhere. But what exactly is intuition, and can it be explained? Even though scientists haven't yet unraveled all of its secrets, intuition isn’t as mysterious as we might think. One expert definition of intuition says that it is: "the universal ability to grasp information in a non-conventional way, outside of a rational and reasoned process.” It’s the kind of intimate knowledge of reality that doesn't rely on knowledge, reflection, or logic.
