![]() MILLER: But keep on listening, and you'll learn to differentiate us. MILLER: And it is worth mentioning here that we know our voices kind of sound the same. MILLER: And today, thoughts are the invisible things we are looking at. SPIEGEL: And what we do on our show is we look at invisible things, stuff like ideas and emotions and beliefs and assumptions and try to understand how those invisible things are shaping our lives. SPIEGEL: And the thing that we want to talk about today is how should we think about these dark thoughts? You know, do they tell us something deep about ourselves, about our desires and our wishes, or not? This is INVISIBILIA. ![]() UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN #6: All of a sudden, I had an image of myself strangling them. SPIEGEL: They come into our heads at random moments. And there's this moment right when the subway train's coming out of the tunnel and the lights are coming, this flicker of an impulse to just throw myself down on the tracks. UNIDENTIFIED MAN #4: I'm waiting for the train, and the train is coming. UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN #5: I'll always be alone. MILLER: Yeah, those last ones you just heard - the dark ones. And the truth is that it's not just thoughts in general that we're interested in really, it's this subset of thoughts that we want to focus on. UNIDENTIFIED GIRL #2: I'm thinking, why did you ask me what I was just thinking? What did that have to do with what you were putting on the radio? SPIEGEL: So we got all kinds of thoughts. UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN #4: This very vivid image of me hitting him with a hammer on his head. ![]() UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN #3: I was thinking about my sister. UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN #2: I'm not good enough. UNIDENTIFIED MAN #3: I had a song in my head - (singing) smile. UNIDENTIFIED MAN #2: How much I love this BlackBerry I'm typing on. UNIDENTIFIED BOY #2: What it would be like if there was no stars, just the sun and no moon. We got just a shocking array of thoughts. MILLER: What were you just thinking about? SPIEGEL: And I have to say - on this little thought-finding mission. SPIEGEL: And who are we? Well, I am Alix Spiegel.Ĭan I possibly trouble you for about 30 seconds? SPIEGEL: Over the last couple of months, we've been asking this question of all kinds of people. UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN #1: Whether or not this is a nice building. UNIDENTIFIED BOY #1: Going out with my girlfriend. UNIDENTIFIED GIRL #1: A cheeseburger (laughter). UNIDENTIFIED MAN #1: Who the hell are you? (Laughter) I mean, that's what I was just thinking. So we're going to start with a very simple question - what were you just thinking?
