When I was a kid my psychologist explained to me in great depth that some people don't have an inner monologue, that always seemed crazy to me. He would tell me about how some people cant imagine things, like, they cant visualize things in their mind, also crazy to me. For me, its like the inner voice is me and I just sort of, like, exist and conversate with myself within my own head. Like there's me on the outside then there's me in my head, but they don't feel like the same being, not in like a DID way but in a way like...like you exist physically but simultaneously you exist metaphysically in your mind, at the same time, but as different people...

I definitely have a continuous "inner chatter" most of the time. I always hear this voice when I read. However, there are times when I'm thinking without the (my) voice. I'll think in visualizations, sensations, memories, or emotions. This is how I remember thinking as a child. I never thought in words as a kid. Now as an adult, I think both ways about 50/50.

when i was little i used to think as if there was two of me, the voice in my head, and the character/body that I am. Always thinking we to myself.

You're not wrong, theres the you that does things by instinct and there's a critical, moralizing agent. It's the ego psychology and whether or not the details are correct i believe the basis is right. Also most people play a role depending on the situation, that means there's also a raw, private, personal you that usually only lives inside your head. There are psychological conditions where people almost don't have this private version and their whole life is an act. Also conditions where there's no moralizing agent which in turn allows the private you to do whatever it desires, often linked to psychotic behaviour.

My inner voice is something like yours, but much less persistent. I also have what I call almost-aphantasia, because I can picture things, but only with great effort, composing the image one part of an element at a time (often with an odd result). It will never happen automatically. I don't get precise descriptions of things when I think about them, like you do. I don't visualize or mentally describe my living room, for example, I just know what it's like. I'm not really sure what's going on in my subconscious, but I just know. It's been interesting to hear your experience with this and think about how it compares and contrasts with my own.

That's so interesting. I read about aphantasia earlier this year and couldn't wrap my head around it, especially the concept of not having visual memories. Then I met a person who had it and I could ask her some questions about it. What's it like for you guys? Are you just unable to picture images or sound as well? (Some people are even able to imagine smells) and do you have visual dreams? When and how did you find out about it? Answer if you like. I would also like to know if Rhett or Link have aphantiasa. Or synesthesia. Sorry for the rambling, it's just so fascinating how different basic human experiences can be for different people.

@@marmotarchivist For me it only affects my ability to bring up an image. But I do still dream visually, as do most people with aphantasia. And I can imagine touch and sound easily. I found out just a few years ago, in my 30's. After hearing yet again a phrase something like, "Picture the scene", I had to ask my husband if he could actually see anything. He could! This led to a long and very interesting conversation and some Google research on this difference. (Since I didn't know the term aphantasia, I had to Google "no mind's eye".) I always imagined that people must think in different ways, but I had no idea how different I was than the "norm". And I still don't feel it holds me back in any way, but I continue to find the concept of thinking more normally/visually very fascinating.

Rhett is misinterpreting the "voice" as something equivalent to a third party reading to him and his brain interpreting the information before forming a response which isnt what I believe is the case and the study somewhat shows that. The "voice" is the brain taking in the information and formulating the respone its not another step added in like passing a package down a line of hands, as the "voice" reads "aloud" the brain is already interpreting the information given to it by the body

The "voice" inside of my head when I'm reading is necessary for me. Yes, it slows me down, however I can't comprehend what I read without it having this "voice". The "voice" also has no sound in my head. What I mean by that is it doesn't take a form or specific accent. It only comes across as a voice for comprehension. This voice doesn't sound like anyone, it just sounds like words being processed together to for information or ideas.

No Rhett, the voice in my head does not slow me down. I read really quickly and the voice sometimes (if I read way too quick) it skips the unecessary words but I still process it as normal. It's not a thing you make happen, it's an automatic process.

Every word I read and every thought I have is in a voice. Mostly my own. But occasionally in the voice of the person. And I cannot turn it off. Ever.

There is only one way to shut off that voice, and I don't think Rhett really thought about that.

'Conscious awareness' is becoming aware of the voice inside your head..and what it says. For most, it is very critical. Meditation can be used to observe said voice, examine and shift one's consciousness. If you find it difficult to sit still with your thoughts, you are missing out on a whole other powerful aspect of yourself.

If I remember correctly, teleportation is possible, but just really... Really hard to accomplish. It has been done at a smaller scale (even things like atoms DO have mass of their own). The way that current teleportation would work, is that you have point A and a point B. You scan item A, send the information to point B, and build the exact copy of item A, at a point B. This is possible in theory, on a bigger scale. Its not "exact" teleportation, like we see in the movies, but in theory we could scan a human being, here on Earth, and "build him" in Mars, for example. The main concerns are that is it ethically right. Does the soul exist? If so, can it be "copied". And what about the original who was scanned. Now there are two of you. Do both of you have the same right as humans? Is It okay just to "kill off" the original one. This get really dark when we talk about ethics and morality.

It absolutely slows me down. I wish I didn't have the voice constantly narrating all of my thoughts and everything I read. It would be lovely to be able to get into that zone where I'm just taking in the information without processing it verbally in my head. That happens sometimes when I zone out but most of time is always words

I'm tri-lingual. I hear my own voice when reading each language. Inner monologue and reading is the same voice. I can't avoid doing that. I will not retain info if i dont have my voice.

I think most people agree with Rhett about the 3am vs 4am

When I read something I definitely hear a voice that is a more fluid version of myself. If I read something from someone I know, I hear it in their voice. It doesn't really slow me down, unless I start mouthing the words along with my thoughts, but I've actually practiced myself out of that habit.

"the world's first ever monster truck front flip" has forever been a sentence ingrained into my brain to be sung in alex turner's voice, and now so has rhett's monster truck announcer voice saying "it's like simone biles"

The internal voice when you read is called subvocalization. It tends to limit the speed at which we read so many speed reading techniques try to minimize subvocalization. This is why we tend to read at about the same speed that we can talk. I would think it has something to do with the ability to talk about what we have read, or maybe we are talking to that other personality in our head.

When Rhett made that little laugh after he said 4 20 he sounded like Chad 🤣🤣🤣

This is quite the episode to listen to when you’ve had special biscuits.

Before rhett even said it i said 4am is morning & 3am is still night

I agree that 3am is middle of the night, and 4am is morning. I was trying to figure out why I thought that, and I think it may be partly because here, in the pre-dawn in the summer, about an hour before the sun rises (so between 4 and 5am) all the birds wake up and sing for about 20 minutes. It sounds like there are hundreds of them, all singing at the same time, and it's much louder than during the day. Then it's like they all go back to sleep, and wake up again when the sun rises.

I feel like Rhett is really feeling himself since he started wearing the ring on his index finger lol

I think in a combination of pictures and a voice. The voice can take over my auditory area to the point that I can’t listen and type at the same time. I have conversations in my head with the voice that does the thinking and reading almost constantly. (I have dyslexia and dyspraxia.)

I feel like Rhett wouldn't say screw you in a face to face confrontation. Just putting it out there

I’ve always noticed a little voice inside my head, anytime I would do anything, I think that’s just one of the reasons why I’m so relaxed all of the time. I feel like it’s just CRAZY how some people only have their own personal thoughts 💭 which could cause them to do crazy things. & the craziest thing is, that I’m actually a survivor of a Brain tumor & should have lost it but I still feel like I have it, meaning the voice inside my head except I can control it more.

they should look into the debate around internal monologs, as it sounds like rhett doesn't have one! would be pretty interesting to hear them talk about this more!

First time i comment on anything on KZread. But is not your inner monologe just like a thought, it is as fast as you are able to think so it does not slow you down. For example my inner monologue does not slow down my reading. Growing up with Heathenry (Ásatrú) i convey my perception of it with the story of when Þjálfi lost while racing against Hugi, which unbeknownst to him was the personification of thought.

i love how rhett goes on and on and then link is just like "ok so but the original question was-" and rhett just keeps going on to something else.

Ok I've been subscribed to Ear Biscuits almost since it started, I didn't really watch it but I had to subscribe anyways just because yall are awesome.

Uploaded 30 seconds ago I'm impressed with myself for catching this podcast this soon

I have an internal voice I hear 24/7 that I hear when thinking, reading, writing, dreaming, etc. Even when reading a street sign, a video title, or numbers. I can't turn it off and on, it's always on and it's just automatic. It doesn't take up extra time. I can read super fast but I'm hearing my voice/character voices/friends voices (depending on what I'm reading or thinking or writing) at the same time. What fascinates me is how my internal voice doesn't sound exactly like my physical voice, yet I consider it to be the real authentic Me. Maybe that's why I don't like the sound of my physical voice, because it doesn't sound like the real me. #EarBiscuits

If link did some gymnastics in his spare time he could be a rock tumbler tumbler

3:45am with my beer and tree and ear biscuits. Perfect.

Yup I have an inner voice, but not like I’m “hearing voices.” My thoughts just have an almost audible quality to them. In fact, when I travel to different countries, I always inherit the accent. You can learn about “inner voices” by learning to speed read. I’m a slow reader because reading is almost equivalent to listening to an audiobook in my head. It’s a challenge for me, but “normal” faster readers simply look at text and process it.

“find the joy in what’s happening right now” wow when rhett comes for you in the podcast 😂 this is why i love listening to ear biscuits along with gmm 💜

Answer to your question, Rhett, space-time continuum. Like using a navigational point of reference. It’s referential for you, therefore directional

"Do you have fruits?" Sounded like Damnyell lol

the toy was called "The Animal" I wanted one soo bad I used to dream about it after seeing the ad .. then the next Christmas I got to play with one at my friends house and it was so underwhelming ..it didn't live up to my imagination

Who else thinks only one of them had the toy monster truck, but they both remember “having it” and “playing with it” lol

The most difficult part of teleporting is letting go of where you are. If you phase shift first, it's much easier to teleport (and also harder to detect)

The only thing it’s not connected to is movements. Thankfully

I think what rhett is saying is that when he is reading something, he's just reading. It doesn't become some other voice that is not the standard inner monologue reading voice. Like he doesn't necessarily hear it as if it's being spoken to him, he's just reading it normally.

In the WWE there is live zoom calls and you can actually here the crowd. That's free!

For the most part, I don't have an internal monologue or voice, but there are a few exceptions. The only time I hear something like that is when I'm reading or when I am angry. I can read relatively fast but probably not as fast as I would if I didn't have that voice. When I am upset, my inner voice allows me to say the things I want to say outwardly. Mostly what is going on in my head are visual thoughts/pictures, memories, or just music that I can't get out of there. Didn't realize that wasn't how everyone processed things until probably last year.

I have a constant monologue of myself going haha

Mamrie and Grace have a podcast called "This Might Get Weird". I'm sure she's like to hear from you guys! Collab! :)

Teleportation: I think it'll be some kind of device we can wear, like a wrist watch or maybe a booth like a phone booth if we can all afford a wrist watch. I think it'll use GPS coordinates and that it will not allow you to enter certain areas. I think even the booth ideas will be better because then you could control more so that you don't materialize exactly where someone is standing. So it'll become a mode of transportation that needs infrastructure like anything else. The magic version like in Harry Potter is my favourite though, and you can cast spells to keep people from materializing in your house, for example or its just considered good manners haha.
