I was listening to this last night at the gym and thought it was an interesting comparison. The comment that Satan doesn't have access to our thoughts and speculating about how bad it would be if he did was intriguing. The notion that Satan can only throw stuff at the wall, see what sticks, then give us more of what sticks seemed like a reasonable conclusion.
At the end where they talk about "what voices are you listening to" hit a little close to home, but tracks with what I learned from a social media coach a couple of weeks ago. What's he's found is that people give more value to anonymous reviews on Yelp than they do to actual humans they know.
Is this theologically perfect, probably not. It it an interesting way to explain temptation, yes.

Self-talk can be dangerous.
I agree. I think that the point they're making is that self talk, might not always be self. Some of it is society telling us lies.
They talk about knowing people who commit suicide yet have hundreds or thousands of people show up for the funeral. Clearly some people choose the voice telling them they they aren't worth living, over the voices of their circle of friends.
