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!!!!
