Behaviour Science Can be Fun! :)

An excellent podcast, with numerous practical tips and coping techniques. Also, both Kate and Padraig can explain complex concepts of behavioural science in a very digestable form making the world of science more accessible to those less familiar with a scientific jargon. This shows they truly understand their area of expertise.
It is great to see real-world applications of theories. I am also thankful for being able to listen to this podcast on my early morning walks to work. Keep up the fantastic work!
