We love talking about psychology, the brain, behavior, and what it all means to us. National Public Radio (NPR) is starting a new podcast on 22 Sept called Hidden Brain. In this series, Shankar Vedantam connects science, behavior, and our own experiences. He'll be exploring topics such as switch-tracking in conversations, stereotype threat, job satisfaction (or lack thereof), research, and other conscious and unconscious factors that influence our behaviors - even when we know they do. If you'd like to know more about the podcast and here a sneak peek, click here.

I'll listening. I hope you will be too. Let's talk about some of the episodes that intrigue you.
