Show Notes
David attempts a punny April Fool's joke. It falls flat. Human development and family sciences professor Lisa Neff outlines the surprising toll that new relationships take on older adults. Supply chain management professor Suresh Muthulingam discusses how in Hollywood, teams don't stick together long enough to learn from failure. For Conspiracy Corner, using those who say there's evidence that we live in a simulation or that ancient Atlanteans had advanced technology, political science professor Lee Kuhnle chats about how conspiracy theories arise. (Pre-order Lee's upcoming book Uncover Up: How to Think Clearly in an Age of Conspiracies here.) For Therapy Thursdays on a Wednesday, Gary Direnfeld and David discuss how to deal with a bad day. Associate professor of marketing Aya Aboelenien explains how vegans develop complex skills to navigate an omnivorous society. Arctic scientist Katie Florko describes how seals will risk death by a polar bear for a varied meal.
