    309. Can a Chemical Make You Moral? The Science of Oxytocin
    May 5 2026

    What if our sense of right and wrong isn’t just philosophical, but biological? In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Paul Zak reveals that a single molecule—oxytocin—could hold the key to understanding trust, empathy, and virtue itself. Imagine being able to measure compassion in a blood sample or enhance generosity with a nasal spray. Is morality purely a matter of choice, or are we wired for virtue? Join Zale as he learns how neurobiology may be reshaping our moral landscape.

  • Why Do People Cut Themselves?

    Why Do People Cut Themselves?
    Apr 7 2026

    We learn from an early age that it’s not acceptable to harm others. Many would say it’s something we don’t even need to really learn – that it’s a natural human instinct to not want to cause harm. With that perspective, it’s natural that it would be extremely challenging for people to understand why someone would harm themselves. Why would some voluntarily elect to hurt themselves? Non-suicidal self injury refers to this practice, encompassing the terms self-harm, cutting, and other harmful practices. Dr. Chris Simpson, author of 'Cutting and Self Harm', joins the podcast.
