Melancholy & Bacon

Empathetic... Sympathetic... expialidocious!

Melancholy & Bacon Episode 6

"Watching someone step on a nail, isn't the same as having stepped on a nail."

Empathy, sympathy, Self-other overlap, bones, brains, nails and you've got mail. How do these all tie together? In this episode I respond to another requested topic, and cover the differences between Empathy and Sympathy. I share examples of things in my own life that have helped me to find an understanding of how they differ and make some completely random connections along the way. There's even a touch nostalgia for the Gen X crowd.
