- 0:00Speaker 1: The Coast Breakfast Bonus Podcast with Tony Jason Sam.
- 0:05Speaker 2: Thanks for listening to our Breakfast Bonus podcast. Today, we're
- 0:07Speaker 2: talking about a study out of the Vienna University basically
- 0:10Speaker 2: saying that if you want to look good, you should
- 0:11Speaker 2: do good. People who are doing good deeds perceived to
- 0:14Speaker 2: be more attractive. Other people think, well, look twice they're
- 0:16Speaker 2: given me a once over twice.
- 0:18Speaker 3: I just I just don't believe this. I mean, I
- 0:20Speaker 3: know I actually do believe it, but I think it's
- 0:22Speaker 3: a very very slight increase, you know what I mean.
- 0:27Speaker 2: Like I can't wait till you break this down.
- 0:29Speaker 3: Like I think, if you were to put someone very attractive, yes,
- 0:34Speaker 3: you're choosing a partner. Here, you got someone's very attractive
- 0:37Speaker 3: and you've got someone's less attractive, but they're doing altruistic acts.
- 0:41Speaker 3: Which one are you going to take?
- 0:43Speaker 2: You know what I mean, A nice person?
- 0:44Speaker 3: Well, are you actually choose the hot one? If you
- 0:47Speaker 3: choose the hot person mean to people, But if you've
- 0:51Speaker 3: got two people of equal attractiveness and there was one
- 0:53Speaker 3: doing altruistic behavior, then you choose that one, of course
- 0:56Speaker 3: you would exactly. So then it comes down to percentages.
- 0:59Speaker 3: So if this the person's not doing altruistic behavior as
- 1:03Speaker 3: slightly as slightly bitter looking at what point is the
- 1:07Speaker 3: altruistic But I'm talking this is a one percenter's one
- 1:09Speaker 3: percent for me, I'm choosing the hot one nine times.
- 1:12Speaker 2: I know you are.
- 1:13Speaker 3: I don't know that says about my personality is everything
- 1:15Speaker 3: about She's kind and everything, but she's just a bit
- 1:18Speaker 3: of a minger.
- 1:20Speaker 2: So people who seem to good people are perceived as
- 1:22Speaker 2: good looking, so they actually changes the way people look
- 1:24Speaker 2: at you. You know, you might you might not look
- 1:26Speaker 2: that attractive.
- 1:27Speaker 3: That's why really attractive models are nice people because they
- 1:30Speaker 3: don't have to.
- 1:30Speaker 2: Be Oh that's awful, a horrible way to me.
- 1:34Speaker 3: You don't need it, you don't need to be nice.
- 1:37Speaker 3: Of course you look around this with a snarley look
- 1:40Speaker 3: on their face.
- 1:41Speaker 2: It also looks for only light switch away.
- 1:43Speaker 3: Let's double down and look at the evolution of this,
- 1:45Speaker 3: because I don't know if you know this, jas, but
- 1:46Speaker 3: I'm a big fan of the evolutionary psychology. Would you
- 1:49Speaker 3: like to know some of the most ultruistic animals in
- 1:51Speaker 3: the animal kingdom?
- 1:52Speaker 2: Okay, these these are the animals that do good things.
- 1:55Speaker 3: Animals that basically serve other people.
- 1:57Speaker 2: Okay, you know what I mean, miss for it. They
- 2:01Speaker 2: just go ahead and do it. That's it, sing their
- 2:03Speaker 2: own phrases.
- 2:03Speaker 3: Best example is the bee who works to serve their queen.
- 2:08Speaker 3: Altruistic behavior and some termites provide great examples of biological
- 2:12Speaker 3: altruism for social insects workers to both their lives to
- 2:16Speaker 3: care for the queen, which is the only member of
- 2:19Speaker 3: this colony, to reproduce the queen. See like we're doing
- 2:24Speaker 3: this view, It's like, well, there's only one lady here,
- 2:27Speaker 3: so we're all trying for is it altruistic or.
- 2:31Speaker 2: Versus smooth fit saying that's why they all love it?
- 2:34Speaker 3: Yeah. Do you know the vampire beck has for all
- 2:39Speaker 3: eternity been given a terrible name. Everyone thinks the vampire
- 2:42Speaker 3: bat goes around binding people on the next suck in
- 2:43Speaker 3: their blood. Do you know why it's called the vampire bat?
- 2:46Speaker 2: No? I honestly thought it was because they had things
- 2:48Speaker 2: and black people.
- 2:49Speaker 3: No, so they have to A vampire bat has to
- 2:53Speaker 3: eat every seventy hours. If it doesn't, it dies. So
- 2:56Speaker 3: the vampire bat is the vampire bat because to avoid
- 3:00Speaker 3: starvation amongst the group, the bats that didn't find food.
- 3:04Speaker 3: Within that finding food period, the other bats will then
- 3:07Speaker 3: regurger take some of their own blood to feed the
- 3:10Speaker 3: bat that didn't get any. So it's not a horrible
- 3:13Speaker 3: animal at all. It's the absolute king of altruism.
- 3:16Speaker 2: I thought you were say, they're the ones that haven't
- 3:17Speaker 2: eaten for seventy hours are about tonight, so the other
- 3:19Speaker 2: ones eat them.
- 3:19Speaker 3: No, no, no, they feed them the spring up a
- 3:24Speaker 3: bit of blood.
- 3:25Speaker 2: Maybe you should write a paper and this is sent
- 3:27Speaker 2: to the team at Vienna University.
- 3:28Speaker 3: I mean, what do they know, Jason. All I'm saying
- 3:31Speaker 3: is that you think you're altruistic. But if I was hungry,
- 3:33Speaker 3: would you vomit your blood?
- 3:36Speaker 2: One? Call me ugly.
