11. Distorted sense of time: how is this possible‪?‬ Sister Doctor Squared

    • Science

Aleena and Janine investigate how the passage of time can often feel slower or faster even when, objectively, we know that time is always passing at a constant rate. Why do some days drag on while others disappear in a flash? How is it possible that things can feel like they are happening in slow motion during traumatic events? Aleena also shares the latest scientific experiments involving knives made out of human poo (yes, you read that right), and Janine has been questioning the reality of her very existence thanks to a certain YouTube video.

Mastering of this episode, plus intro and outro music, by the ever-talented Dr Adrian Diery.
