What makes us us? Is there a feature that unites humans as a species while setting us apart from every other animal? Tool use, perhaps, or language or consciousness? This episode is about the hunt for a biological trait that would pull us all together and why that trait is so hard to find. Even if we do discover a single attribute that is hardwired into our collective brains—like our obsession with the color red—it will always dissolve into difference in the end.Hosted and written by Sophus Helle. Sound editing by Simone Nystrup-Larsen. Edited by Andreas Lindinger Saxild.Find out more at sophushelle.com/monkeymind.Monkey Mind Combining wit and wisdom, silliness and seriousness, the podcast Monkey Mind by Sophus Helle takes the audience on a weekly jaunt through the jungle of the mind.

This episode charts various people who have tried, and failed, to bring about forgetfulness, from the German philosopher Immanuel Kant to the American actress Barbra Streisand.

In this episode, Sophus talks about happens when we run out of words, as when the mind is made blank by old age or when our loved ones die and we grieve them in silence.

Et en même temps complexées, hyperpenseuses, épuisées, se faisant du souci pour tout... Ces femmes que je côtoie me donnent l’impression d’être les victimes d’un perpétuel sentiment d’infériorité. Pourquoi éprouvent-elles le besoin d’en faire toujours plus pour justifier leur existence ? »Dans cet ouvrage éclairant, Marie-Laurence Cattoire montre de quelle manière les injonctions dont nous avons hérité infusent dans notre quotidien de femme.
