The theory that you'd be less likely to offer help in a situation if others were around? 

This is another episode where we were all a little sheepish about telling stories of when we've observed <a href="https://sketchplanations.com/the-bystander-effect" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Bystander Effect</a> in our own behaviour.Between us, we had lots of examples of where it's been observed in others. Of course we did.We discuss theories of why this is a human phenomenon and even examples of when we've been at the sharp end of it. The most innocuous and probably most common example was the WhatsApp Group chat.Who in your group is the one to take charge and suggest actual dates for things rather than the very non-committal "yeah - we should do that"? Jono describes solid works of research using CCTV footage that backs up the hypothesis and we ponder whether the effect is different in cultures and societies other than our own.

The Bystander Effect

<description>&lt;p&gt;On the morning of your company's massive online shop launch, the only person who knows the crucial password misses their alarm, sleeps in and everyone's left waiting.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Oh dear.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;In this episode we speak with the tireless behavioural scientist and &lt;a href="https://sketchplanations.com/human-risk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;Human Risk&lt;/a&gt; expert, Christian Hunt who tells us about the fundamental elements of human risk and how to avoid it; with plenty of juicy examples to bring this topic to life. Whilst the majority of the episode focuses on Human Risk in the professional environment, we also talk about how we all experience it in our day-to-day personal and family lives too; in Christian's own words, we all do stupid things every now and then.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When Christian talks with companies about their Human Risk and how to mitigate it, he talks about "getting people to do what you want without p*ssing them off" - which we do reference a fair bit in the podcast.

MicroAdventures with Al Humphreys

<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Colour&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Life wouldn’t be the same without it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But there are so many to choose from, how do we know which is the &lt;em&gt;right&lt;/em&gt; colour?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;eg. What colour car would you buy? What colour shoes? What colour paint for the new feature wall in the kitchen?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sometimes you just instinctively know what colour(s) to choose.

Adding a bit of structure to the very subjective world of colour. 

Colour.Life wouldn’t be the same without it.&nbsp;But there are so many to choose from, how do we know which is the right colour?eg. What colour car would you buy? What colour shoes? What colour paint for the new feature wall in the kitchen?&nbsp; Sometimes you just instinctively know what colour(s) to choose. It’s a vibe thing.Other times, it’s nice to get a bit of help.&nbsp;And in this episode we speak with celebrated artist and ceramicist Lucia Fraser about the <a href="https://sketchplanations.com/the-basic-colour-wheel" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Basic Colour Wheel</a>: Bringing a bit of structure and dare we say it, science to proceedings to help understand how colours relate to and complement each other.&nbsp;We also discuss how colour can affect and reflect our emotions.I particularly enjoyed our discussion about how brand logos are different to art when it comes to colour and that the colours chosen often have clear functions to play.

The Basic Colour Wheel (with Lucia Fraser)

<description>&lt;p&gt;Just like Goldilocks' porridge, often the most enjoyable activities and tasks are those in the sweet spot; where the balance between competence and the difficulty of the job at hand is juuuuuuuuust right. Making it a challenge, but not too much so. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;We discuss our own tolerances for menial tasks (such as loading the dishwasher) and find examples of our own Goldilocks Tasks (like tough IKEA furniture builds). Through this, we dissect what makes us feel motivated in the work we do, and more importantly the work we enjoy doing. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;How do ours compare to your Goldilocks Tasks?
