The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

This does not, however, explain why I might rubberneck at a car accident and try and see a dead body, which I know is going to be gross and it doesn't have any value for me.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

It's almost like, all right, I haven't seen a dead body in a long time.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

Maybe I should try to catch a glimpse of this one because it's so rare.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

But that's the most charitable interpretation of me doing this gross thing that slows down traffic.

1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

I know I have a show fan, at least one, who does autopsy pathology for a living.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

And she posts stuff on Instagram and it's always autopsy pathology 1G and backup.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

And I'm like, what's going on?

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

Yeah.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

But it's also like, hey, what's this?

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

I thought I was following you.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

And she's like, my account got deleted again.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

because it's actually really interesting stuff and she loves the science but it's here's an arm that was severed in a lathe and you're like and instagram's like oh it's gratuitous violence and she's like yeah but it's kind of also science it just happens to be kind of gross so she like has to tow this weird line where she's like if you want to see the other photos of this you have to go to this website and it's like such a pain to do that yeah i used to work at meta and i worked in that realm and because of my background i

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

Is everything okay?

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

Yeah, I kind of want to find out where other horror movie fans are talking about Saw 11.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

Oh, are you sure?

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

Yeah, the morbid curiosity really does seem like nature's way of putting us in a position to learn something about the dangers around us.

The Jordan Harbinger Show

And you see it in fables.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

The wolf, and then they identify what a wolf looks like in the woods.

The Jordan Harbinger Show
1276: Coltan Scrivner | The Evolutionary Logic of Morbid Curiosity

Tell me a little bit about that.
