Cognitive neuroscience professor Dr. Steve Fleming explains that anxious-depressed individuals underestimate themselves even when they're right. Scott Berman of Sky Cave Retreats shares how days-long "dark retreats" are the newest spiritual conquest for tech elites. On Pet Talk, veterinarian Dr. Cliff Redford helps Tony Five with his dog's anal gland problem. After, Cliff covers topics: Why people resemble their dogs; and How pets suffer from allergies.
