    Apr 15 2026
    Tipping has long been a part of service culture in the U.S., but in the last few years, the number of places where we're asked to tip has multiplied. Social psychologist and tipping researcher Michael Lynn, PhD, discusses “tip creep” and how digital payment screens are reshaping expectations; why social norms drive our tipping behavior; how tipping norms vary from country to country; how biases affect who gets tipped more; and whether tipping is a fair way to compensate people.

  • Why babies laugh, with Gina Mireault, PhD
    Apr 1 2026
    Before babies have the words to tell us what they're thinking, they can laugh. Developmental psychologist Gina Mireault, PhD, explains how she sets up a “baby comedy club” in her lab; what babies find funny and why; when babies start trying to make other people laugh; and what studying laughter can tell us about babies’ cognitive development and how they experience the world in their first year of life.

And a world filled with tons of bad advice tik toks and fluff articles. this podcast is a shining beacon of actual knowledge. I've been an avid fan of psychology for 17 years and I wish something this good existed when I was a teenager.

The host does a great job of asking the questions you would want answers to. And they have such a wonderfully wide variety of guests that I've learned about things I didn't even know to ask questions about. If you are a fan of psychology, actual data, or just want to know more about why you do what you do, and how to proceed in the world and know everyone better. Then this is a must listen podcast!

I absolutely love this podcast and listen every week. They present the latest research on so many topics, from how to build successful teams to getting along with your siblings to leading a meaningful life and a million other topics explaining why we do the things we do. The best part is that every episode is based on actual science instead of most other podcasts that are just two people giving their personal opinions. Worth a listen! There’s definitely an episode about something you’ve wondered about in your life…

LOVE THIS PODCAST!!!!
